Topic: Darren Moore sacked

[miggybaggy]

He won't learn, just like Mowbray never learned. He suffers from FDS. (Frustrated Defender Syndrome) He's had enough of defending, seen it all through his playing career.
I tell you what though!
It's bleeding great to watch 

It is!(At home at least)! But only as long as we keep Barnes. I fervently hope our scouting team are briefed on a like-for-like replacement for when Barnes inevitably leaves us.

He played a different game in the Prem though, with great results I might add, so maybe he has more than 1 string to his bow.
It is great to watch though mate and i for one would take another nail-biting 4-2 on Saturday over an 8 men behind the ball 1-0.
Stuff the clean sheets!!

[boinging_along]

Everyone would rather take 4-2 over a 1-0 win.
The question is, would you take a 1-0 win over a 4-2 loss?

Yes, as long as it only happened now and again, we played well and were a tad unlucky

I would rather risk the odd 4-2 defeat and play to win than play not to lose and win the odd 1-0.
If we were getting pummelled every week then no, but occasionally, yes it's worth the risk.

Definitely. Football, at least for the working man, is about entertainment as well as results. I do not EVER, and I mean EVER, want to see Pulisball at the Albion again even if we won the Premier League and I mean it.

 i loathe it when people do this, but,

What he said !

[BoingFlyer]

Looks like Darren can cut the Mustard. When we were in the prem he could put a team out to defend and grind out a 1-nill, in this division we can go out and score for fun. At the start of the season he said this league is all about wining games not grinding out bore draws and trying to nick a goal. Fun times ahead.

[barnestormer]

Said it once on here,its hard to argue and critisise any manager with a win ratio of around 56% never mind a club ledgend of one who I was never in favour of getting the gig.

[liverbaggie]

What is Dave's unbeaten %?
Its much better than the win% eh
Also what's his loss %?
Let's have it all out in the open for all the non believers of his coaching abilities.

overall or just this year?

According to Transfermarkt,

This year :- 10 games
Unbeaten - 8 = 80% all comps
Win - 6 = 60% all comps
Loss - 2 = 20% all comps

Overall:- 16 games
Unbeaten -  13 = 81%
Win - 9 = 56%
Loss - 3 = 19%

[liverbaggie]

Thank you Huntington.
Either way his % are fantastic.
Why so many moaners then?
Perfection is impossible.
Sit back and enjoy the ride,stop running down the road too far,if, sorry when we get back to the premiere league worry about it then eh?

Roberto di Matteo took us up comfortably from this division...and he would have taken us straight back down again if we hadn't have acted to bring in Roy. We have the best team in the division on paper, I would expect Darren to have very good stats this season, for my money they should be better than they are given that we have only faced one side thus far (in M'boro) who are anywhere near our level of player.

Who, apart from Boro, do you consider anywhere near us Fritzl?

[liverbaggie]

What do you expect from a new coach after 16 games,explain please.
Undefeated? Lost one?
Top of the league?

[Fritzl Palace]

Who, apart from Boro, do you consider anywhere near us Fritzl?

Only the Villa, Stoke, though I do not rate Rowett in the slightest, and Bielsa's Leeds until December when they burn out.

Aside from those, I see no other side with a squad on our level.

Liverbaggie, top two and playing far better, particularly away from home where we have been truly dreadful thus far.

[liverbaggie]

Who will win the Grand National next year mate?

Fail to see how this addresses me dealing with what is fairly obvious, but there we go.

[Critical Baggie]

I think most fans would of taken where we are at considering how much of a disaster last season was. Wasn't long ago that avoiding another relegation was the priority for this season.

We scored 31 goals ALL of last season, we've scored 20 so far and it's not even end of September! It's not perfect and the defensive certainly needs work but most importantly it's actually enjoyable watching the Albion play again.

Didn't we beat those already?

[Fritzl Palace]

Didn't we beat those already?

...and?

I said squad on our level. As i also said, I do not rate Rowett in the slightest and would want him nowhere near our club.

[liverbaggie]

Hey fritzle,your a hard taskmaster,try a little realism with a pinch of optimism then you'll feel better.

I’m very optimistic, I think we’ll win the league at a canter, we have a superb team for this level, I believe I have predicted us to win nigh on every game this season so far.

[liverbaggie]

Except the ones we've lost!

I agree with this - away from home we have been poor and relatively lucky to escape defeat in at least a couple of games. I like what Moore is trying to do overall, but his execution is lacking in some areas.

We have a quality squad at this level, we shouldnt be getting outplayed as often as we are.
