If we want to win yesterday the defence has to stop that horrendous goal we conceded.Ā You can concede soft goals like we did against yesterday AND suffer bad calls from the so called foul on the centre half was a joke.Ā Quote

You're right, but it was always going to be flagged offside.Ā Remember a few years back when Doyle was flagged off, despite being several yards away from the keeper. Burton iirc. Ā Quote

I have to say I have absolutely no confidence in that back line apart from Conway. They have neither speed of recovery, timing when to put their foot in and adopt the ' thou shall not pass ' approach or heading ability or get forward and be a threat up front ok Toal has scored one but when you think back to the Beevers/Wheater days and watch the shocking attempted headers like Johnstones yesterday it's so frustrating. Its obvious why we have such a poor defensive record yet again. Get a strong no nonsense centre half / captain material signed quickly or we will miss out again regardless of how many goals we will score at the other end. With apologies to @SirNat80: I could have picked any number of posts that put the defence at the root of our problems. The reality is that weāve had 101 shots at goal in our first 6 games, only 25 of which were on target and only 5* of which ended up in a goal. Thatās bloody atrocious finishing and nothing to do with the defence. *Our goal against Lincoln had no shot. In contrast, in the same 6 games, our defence have conceded just 29 shots, of which 10 were on target. Despite this, those 10 shots resulted in 6 goals. Thatās bloody poor keeping to me and nothing to do with the defence. If you want to have a go at anyone at the back, Teddy Sharman-Lowe has had a worse start to the season than George Johnston or Eoin Toal. Quote

The stats are pretty compelling but who's at fault yesterday for their goal? It's Johnstone and Toal for letting the guy run 40 yards without a challenge and then letting him have a shot.Ā The fact it hits the post and goes in off TSL seems unlucky for him. Quote

Agree with much of that, but to assert that our keeper has been poor is grossly unfair.Ā Given that our finishing has been poor, perhaps our opponents' finishing has been much better. Ā Quote

boltonboris Posted August 31, 2025 Posted August 31, 2025 It was definitely offside. Though to be honest, I think if the keeperās not unsighted by Gale, he probably saves Simonsā shot.Ā Ā Some big chances missed again and another shit goal conceded. Bad luck or not, the lad ran half the length of the pitch with zero contact made. Itās frustrating that we seem to have to do absolutely everything to score a goal, but give them up with such easeĀ Quote

Was it a late flag? I noticed on the replay none of their players appealed apart from the keeper, who seemed to realise quite late.Ā It was offside but a pain in the arse if the flag only went up after the shout.Ā I was too busy leaping around in the stand for no good reason. For the 2nd year running too after Morleys 'disallowed goal' last year.Ā Quote
