1969 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 As said first pretty good second half we never got started mom(first half)dodoo had their full back on toast so don't understand why we switched him 2nd half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burndens Bogs Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Decent first half and we should have been 3-0 up at the break. All got a bit sloppy in the 2nd half and Accy looked stronger as the game went on, they could have nicked it with the last kick of the game, what a sickener that would have been. Cold, very cold.

Moderators Casino Posted February 29, 2020 Moderators Share Posted February 29, 2020 Our left side was an absolute liabilty second half The left back v their right winger was reminiscent of alonso v duff Destroyed him, but to be fair fleming got no help from dodoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodoo went out of game badly for 20 mins after that ankle knock, we did same as a team from about 50 mins to that switch then finished stronger apart from that last attack of theirs. Not a bad game to be fair, Accrington were honest and had two or three with a bit of quality. First half from us was good apart from final ball or effort at goal.

Mounts Kipper Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 (edited) I must say our support was good again today, very supportive, let’s hope KH mentions that as he’s very quick to complain, when in my mind he’s no reason to.

Leyther_Matt Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Politic looking to attack and then falling over the ball was pretty much the final two thirds of our season summed up in the space of a few seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take Hunt Off Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Dodoo had a great first half second not so good as they changed tactics Not much on rhs but twice Lowe made good runs & was ignored Could have lost in the end we don’t seem to deal with big boot up the middle losing too many second balls.Matthews saved us at the end don’t understand why he gets criticised so much. Politic tried to pass the ball around their penalty box he should stick to what comes natural & shoot every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marple whites Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 For once we had a few players that played well and that makes the difference. thought dodo, Bryan, Crawford and Lowe played well their goalie made 3 great saves first half bit more even second half but overall - decent performance and just shows how mediocre this division is Next stop Wimbledon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter FrancisFogarty Posted February 29, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted February 29, 2020 We had the best of the first half and should have had at least a couple. Second half was scrappy to say the least but we bucked up when JD changed sides. Keeper made a couple of match winning saving saves. All in all not a bad day apart from the cold.

ErnestTurnip Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Bench left us without many ways to change things, he could have maybe put Bunney in front of Fleming for more protection and to cancel out their right hand side but not sure what he could have done to mix it up when Crawford became more and more anonymous in the second half. Should have held my nerve but cashed out just before one of our corners at around 70 mins in case we had a moment of magic, should know better by now.

He was quality that Jordan Clark, never heard of him but one of the best individual displays against us at Macron in this terrible league. In 'normal' circumstances just the type of player we should be taking off our smaller rivals, maybe one for 2021 being optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slower, and distribution in attacking positions abysmal, not one decent cross today from many attempts, as usual. Nothing against him but total mystery why Chicksen isnt here for this season and next minimum. Bunney hasn't played much but nothing to say he's better than Chicksen so far, and anyway we need 2 left backs as with every other position.

That's an understatement. First half in top 5 performances of season, 2nd half as bad as attacking wise as we've seen, down there with Wycombe, Burton and Rochdale 2nd halves. Accrington the worst team we've failed to score against at home this season under Hill. But we did deserve to score in the 1st half, some excellent football and without Politic joining in. A breath of fresh air to see Crawford back in action and Dodoo showed he's got something to offer when he's in the mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its one of the mysteries of the season how a keeper that looks too good for us gets stick. We should be bigging him up and begging him to stay. Try looking at the keepers we play against every week in this terrible league, he'd walk into most teams and was (again) our best player today, consistent for 90 minutes. I'm not saying he doesnt make mistakes, like all keepers, but just not as many as the majority of keepers I see in every division every week.

Traf Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Matthews gets stick because he's prone to at least one major fuck-up per game and he doesn't command his 6 yd box on crosses. Today, neither of those really happened, so he had a good game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondi Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Matthews & Lowe were our best players today, thought Dodoo was great in the first half, but Hill switched him to the other side second half and he went missing, unless I'm missing something?

It was a surprise to me that as the game drifted away from us none of the subs were warming up. I was hoping he'd shift Lowe into the middle for L Murphy and get Emmanuel attacking down the right. Lowes crossing in the first half was awful but he did make a couple of 30 yard runs which were ignored so perhaps that wouldn't have worked. It would have been an attacking change though when we had so few forward options on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mounts Kipper Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 We should be looking to go 3 at back and use Emmanuel and Fleming as wing backs, Flemming would be a real threat cut loose, anyhow I’ll take the point today and hope we can continue to improve.
