Problems

[Neil Armstead]

As I left the game today I could hear the crowd outside the ground in the distance chanting. Some for the sacking of Jacko and some for the resignation of Ken Davy as chairman. But just where do the problems at Town at the moment lie?

I for one think that they eminate from the boardroom, from behind the scenes with Ken Davy. There's just too much fog surrounding our financial details at the moment, when in the past they have been made quite clear. Just what is going on with the Giants and the stadium?

Others think it's down to Jacko and his tactics, which to be fair can be pretty poor. His team selections continue to astound me, but our diminishing squad is not his fault. It's the lack of money, surely.

And what gets to me most is the way that Jackson and Davy get on the fans' backs to make more noise at games. GIVE US SOMETHING TO SHOUT ABOUT

what was wrong with his team selection today?
apart from starting hudson i know mcintosh started there too but i thnnk that was to do with clarke being quicker than him,as when he did come on he did struggle to handle them,what could he have done diffrent?

[syterrier]

i think keiran o reagan of radio leeds got it spot on

'we have no pace anywhere in the side, so our best tactic would be to keep the ball on the floor and pass it'

Jacko decides to tell the players to 'oof it up to boothy

'the team don't know their positions, they dont know their best formation and best tactics to win a game'

although you can attribute this to the injury list, there's seven days between each game, in which the fit players can find out this with the coaching staff

'Ken Davy DID give jacko the option of bringing in some loan signings, but jacko was said to be "pleased with his current squad"'

pav's out injured, mcaliskeys not up to much, booth and beckett are not quick enough... leon knight was out of favour and available for loan, and despite is temperament, may have kept us in the running for a few weeks with a few goals

[chrisuk5675]

leon knight was never an option for us he'll not come back to town he dosen't get along with yorath,
as for saying davy did give jacko money for loan signings where did you here that as all we've been told is that we've no money for loan players.

i heard it on radio leeds, as they had heard it from jacko in a press conference during the week

as for knight not getting on with yorath... we dont have yorath!

[chrisuk5675]

he's still at the club even if isn't here at the moment.and as long as thats the case leon won't come here.

There's an interview with Ken Davy on the official website, it's quite an interesting read

Yes, it's very interesting. It looks like we should see some action in January. I'm not sure who is going to want our rejects all the same!

[bluethunder]

Yes, I just read the interview, great read and good questions. Also, Jacko's comments from the Oldham game seem to back up everything Ken Davy was saying ie He has been offered money for new players but has decided to keep faith with the current sqaud. Given recent results i'm sure this will change in January. Hopefully it will not be too late...

[Neil Armstead]

anyone noticed the amount of players coming into the Giants for fees this year?
