We are nowhere near the team Jim left us with a short weeks ago -
Today was an absolute shocker - we missed chance after chance and Weymouth won’t believe they have won that game
Mr Rusk you don’t seem to have the first idea as to how to direct the players to be able to win games

No cutting edge, goal famine back against a hoodoo bottom-end of the table team.Possession football not producing points, maybe we should just park the bus in away games, and hope we can sneak 1 or 2 goals on the counter- it can't be any worse than current negativity.

Much for Rusk to do and ponder upon.

Yep, we should have kept Jimbo and his team that battered Weymouth at home.

Funny how we were near 1.9ppg under Jim and 1.3 under Rusk.

Come on admit this isn't good enough so far.

We are going to pay the price for the stupidest, most unnecessary and badly judged managerial change in our history. We will get what we deserve and Mr Rusk is not taking anyone with him in terms of fans.

My father was a County fan like my grandfather before :-)

Re: Rubbish Rusk

What makes you think it was unecessary?

Re: Rubbish Rusk

And what did Jim's last 8 games reap?

Correct

Re: Rubbish Rusk

The points per game tell the story perfectly.

Are you saying this is good enough so far?

His last 9 got 14 points and 14 goals.

2 points and 7 goals better than Rusk thus far

Fair point about Rusk, sjp*.

Mr Gannon did do rather well in the last five years (promotion and two trophies).

*What, me agreeing with sjp and Bungle? I need a lie down.

You can't blame rusk for missing chance after chance, we need better up front than what we've got and that includes reid

Re: Rubbish Rusk

I nearly agree with everything you say*, Bungle. He can't score for the players. Apart from the bit about Reid: he has scored quite a few.

*Is this a first? I'm sure it won't be the last.

We're his 7th club since the 2016/17,
he's got 10 league goals this season yes, but I think we need better than him.
Today don't think he managed to pass a ball to a County player, to me he's more interested in himself than the team

Re: Rubbish Rusk

We were scoring plenty before, maybe as we created more they were not as exposed, living off scraps now, playing this way we very much need a top striker.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

Needed one since Oswell.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

We need something quickly or at this rate we won't make the playoffs even.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

Re: Rubbish Rusk

Can we get him though, wasn't he on 5k a week?

Re: Rubbish Rusk

So? Money is no object. He wants to finish his career with us.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

Apparently he’s a millionaire. He’s had a good career. He seemed to intimate in a recent podcast he would be amenable to finishing his career where he started.
The money would be worth it if it works out.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

That's what Dosser earns a week in royalties on his words of wisdom.

And what I earn a week in royalties on my jokes. Well, without the k.
And the 5.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

I think we're a decent goalscorer away from going on a decent run,don't think any of these forwards will be here next season, and I think they know it already

Reid's worth persevering with. A revolving door of players isn't the answer either. Our best season's (Recently under Jim Gannon) are where we have had a core of about 16-18 players who play nearly every week.

And right at this moment I think we are operating with 31 full time players. How on earth can that be justified?

Re: Rubbish Rusk

Because simply, we are.... MASSIVE

Re: Rubbish Rusk

It's a very good point. Even the very best teams in the country like City and last year Liverpool rotate mainly on a core of 16-18 players and only go outside that against the very poorest sides or in lesser competitions. You need to find a winning formula and stick to it.

Unfortunately with so many different chiefs behind the scenes feel you will see more comings and goings over the coming months.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

There is only one Chief, Mr Stott

Re: Rubbish Rusk

I'm not sure he is. This is his best ever season. I doubt he'd do it at L2 level and right now he looks like he can't be bothered

In Reid’s defence, in the 9 games since Rusk was appointed, he’s scored 3 goals and has scored in all 3 wins under Rusk.

Got ya.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

Just to play devils avocado. We've taken 2 fewer points from Rusks first 9 than we did in Jims last 9.

We've been trending this way a long time. Rusk needs to sort it sharpish though. Absolutely need a goalscorer as that is clearly where our problem lies. 7 goals in 9 games compared to 14 in Jims last 9 league games

Re: Rubbish Rusk

So those extra 7 goals brought only 2 more points.

Its from corners we need to up our game on

Aye, Doss.

Why all the silence about missing injured county players ?
Jim used to update supporters at least weekly on how the squad was doing with injuries
Today we were missing both wingbacks - John Rooney - Connor Jennings - Adam Thomas - and Stott - and not a word from the management
It’s so frustrating to just not know why they are missing and how long they are likely to be out of the team

Its not an excuse but we were missing 3 of the better midfielders in the division today,but why can we not put the ball in the net? Other teams seem able to sign strikers on loan who score(the goal today) but we (Wilson) seem to sign lemons! does he get a list of teams and just ring them up saying have you got anyone who cant score you want to farm out?

Re: Rubbish Rusk

Missing the best fullbacks too.

I don't reckon Rusk signs them. I think his boss does.

Re: Rubbish Rusk

Correct! I listened to his interview he said " some players are making progress" did not say who or when they would be back.

What the hell is wrong with Kitching? It was supposed to be a slight back strain?

Injury prone sadly.

I think this is his 3rd spell out of the team this season.

Great player but if he's missing as many games as he does it's really frustrating.

The older I get the better I was.

Reid isn't proven. This is, by far, his best season ever. You can't rely on him and it's unfair to do so. Bennett isn't proven at this level either.
