Yes there were times we'd like him to play it forward a bit quicker, same with most players today. Yes. The bwfc poll has him as one of 4 for MOTM. I can’t recall him doing anything wrong today. And I’m certainly not going to accept “he passed sideways and backwards” as a reason. When you are playing against 11 men behind the ball you have to do this. His energy to support the forward play and his commitment to defend and help keep a clean sheet was excellent today. 10 minutes ago, Cheese said: We never deserved to win that today. Barrow fully deserved a draw. But we did win it. That's all that matters. Yes that’s all that matters. 10 minutes ago, Farnywhite said: Well give me the Bruce Rioch days .

Our run was win 14, draw 3 and lose 1 in last 18 games. Remove the rose tinted, we scrapped like hell to win the majority of them. Didn’t really blow anyone away BD has called this one absolutely correct. However the wins come, that will do. That’s what happens in 92/93. And Bruce would have said exactly the same thing 👏🏽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been a regular joke on here wanting an impossible number of points. A bit like saying we need two points on Tuesday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
only1stig Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 1-0 = 3 pts = 7th place (play off) = happy weekend again Further pluses ... another win, late win based on battling until the end, astute subs (always a gamble but they are working at the moment), solid defence including 90th minute challenges and what appears to be an “all in” squad. Could be, and has been, a lot worse!! COYW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantra Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Evatt said match referee Alan Young had reached the right decision. “I spoke to their player afterwards and he said he’d expected the contact and that our lad has pulled out. He said he’d told the referee that it wasn’t a penalty,” he said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it's a poor do if people hesitated to celebrate a last-minute winning goal because the commentator incorrectly shouted "offside" as it went in.

So we watched Miller celebrating thinking any minute now they're going to realise it's going to get chalked off. The silly twat! Plus he does that annoying breathing out thing at the end of every sentence. He should be executed as far as I'm concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Bock Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Another +1 for not celebrating the goal properly as I was waiting for the offside to be given. Not great commentary in that moment but it’s not helped by the cameras. They really need to pan out, they’re so focussed in that you can’t even see options available on 10 yard passes, never mind flags for offside. Anyway, I couldn’t care less right now, get in COYWM!!

Best ref we’ve had all season. We have to expect teams to set up like Barrow did today, 10 men behind the ball, leave two up when defending corners and try and blag a goal, I thought Barrow played brilliantly today, they must have thought they got a point and switched off. Fair play to our lads for keeping going, fuckin superb mentality and you cannot teach that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to our lads for keeping going, fuckin superb mentality and you cannot teach that. Our main problem today was quality ( or lack of ) of our play around their 18 yard box . Far too many poor crosses and bad decision making , but the play up to that area was really good against a really solid defence , just lack of quality around their box is what made it harder than it was . But another 3 points and these really are the type of results that end up with promotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand that, takes time to bed the new players in and get them up to speed. They should be there now. Marry that with confidence of winning games, I’d like to see us really step up the performances a notch now. Tranmere have had 2 great wins this week but others will slip. Cambridge, Morecambe and Cheltenham are really not very good. Mid table teams from what I’ve seen. Just got to keep chipping away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimron Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I remember saying that this was a defensive master-class. Feel for Barrow but when it ain't happening for you this is what happens. Similarly when you are on a run... Regarding the commentary, I don't mind the "experts" but it is getting like BWFC Family Favourites with all the birthdays and anniversaries... maybe we should get Ed Stewpot in?

He'd also done one in the first half and got away with it. To be honest, we manage to get away with foul throws just about every throw we get under the cameras.

But that's beside the point, which was that it isn't the commentators place to call it as it happens (unless the flag is up). But anyway, we move on.

Tony Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Good to win in the end, but that was hard to watch. Passing was laboured, too many players with a poor touch and don't get me started on the crossing. Got lucky at the end, may have been a penalty for Barrow and my first thoughts on the goal was that it was offside. However, it was an emphatic finish. I am OK with the commentary and the analysis.
