Ernie is well known for always having good attacking teams. Even with the muppets, like Fitzgerald, we had he was still scoring goals. Did you actually watch any of Ernie's teams play? (P.s. that's a rhetorical question, you obviously had the game in front of you, just didn't pay attention.)
Not saying that
We should have scored more this season under Bert than we did
Our finishing under him for the last 2 years has been wasteful big time
Defensively we were also honking under Bert
Under Bert it wasn't a case of we were not competitive on the pitch. We were just ineffective in both boxes under him

You kidding right , Seriously ?????.
We had a reputation for the most shots without finding the back of the net FFS.
Are we talking about the same Ernie who said resigning Roy was a priority and the club could not agree with Roy on a two year deal ?.
We are talking the same Ernie and Roy who is now back for a season and a half after half a season with the Roar, That Roy and Ernie yeh ?.
The same Ernie who was not provided funds to find a replacement for Wes, The same Ernie who was never offered the sort of funds to bring players with a wage demand you can be sure Ibini and Ledley would have commanded to come here ?.
The club got serious the moment Ernie left not a moment before. Ernie was given a Morris Minor budget ( not coupe S ) and told to go win Bathurst with it.
C'mon Stanny i know you are not a dill but that post was so far removed from reality.
You can be sure if there was a bloke standing in the goal decked out in Jets gear Millar would have put that out for a throw in on the opposite side of the park rather than scored a goal.
Put your house on that outcome, Christ he can't pass to save himself.
The same Ernie who refused to get a replacement Assistant coach, The same Ernie who said no to new players coming in (Has it been confirmed what type of players they were?), The same Ernie who wouldnt play Bobby Burns over a CM/CB at LB who was getting rinsed every week, The same Ernie who wouldnt drop certain players who were not performing Dimi etc, The same Ernie who only has one style of play and never deviates even when it doesnt work, Same goes for only using certain players in the squad
Of course it was confirmed. Where were you when Lawrie was on NBN and quoted in the Herald as being offered up players who were " NOT " household names and were other A League club players who could not break into other teams match day squads.
Bert went so far as too say the last player offered to him was a player from another A League club who was yet to make his A League debut.
You said we were hopeless in attack, We were nothing of the sort with plenty of shots in a game. Bert said we needed Roy the club said no. If we were putting away half those chances we would be looking down the ladder now at most team as opposed to looking up.
Bert screwed up heaps but having a team incapable of great attacking football was not one them.
