Gives us presence, strength, height and a bit of pace. 3 at the back has to be the way forward as it stands as I don’t think we can trust any of them in a 2 man partnership We've played two poor attacking sides but in difficult aways and rarely looked like conceding over 180 minutes. Whatever SS decides to do at home its the foundation for a solid run in away. Quote
Matt Lofthouse Posted January 20 Posted January 20 That number fucking 8. Just ran round twatting us. Quote

Over the course of a full season that'd be a 108 point season. And that's with the top three to play away. In the hole we've dug for ourselves a point (against a side who've won two games since 4th Oct) does nothing for us. Unless we are just looking at consolidating a playoff position. Quote

Let's be honest, there was nothing going on. Fair play to Stevenage fans, its effective and there's every chance they'll finish above us but watching that for enjoyment is utterly soul destroying!

RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted January 20 Posted January 20 I'm not going to dissect that tonight other than to say Josh Sheehan should never be allowed near a set piece again....... he is absolutely gash at them. Its like someone trying to kick a balloon into the box Quote
Wanderlust Posted January 20 Posted January 20 My only slight regret from today - apart from having to watch a turgid game in appalling conditions- was that we didn’t look like finding a way of nicking it and putting a dent in Stevenage’s games in hand advantage as both they and Mansfield have enough to knock us out of the playoff places if they somehow win them. Still a point under the circumstances is more than I could have hoped for a couple of weeks ago. Hopefully we’ll improve our attacking threat and start to push on. Quote

Its like someone trying to kick a balloon into the box That free kick at the end was such a waste. Then McAtees crap crossfield pass. Then Gales wasted cross. So devoid of quality when it comes to the final ball or cross. So frustrating when we seem to do everything else right. Manager must pull his hair out. One of those balls lands tonight it's a different story. We just need that bit of quality Quote

Would be good to have someone who can whip 'em in at pace, or plop it into the perfect space to be attacked. Quote
Dr. Feelgood Posted January 20 Posted January 20 21 minutes ago, bwfc4ife said: How shit was Johnston tonight, fortunately it didn’t cost us today but been saying for weeks he’s the weak link. Someone said earlier, we need someone in the middle who can run with the ball and drive and the opposition and that’s spot on. We need a Frandson. Sheehans comfortable on the ball with half a yard but can’t do that. Simon’s is shite and Erhahon looks like a fridge on legs. Tutu, Toal, Dalby and Forino only ones to come away with credit for me. Dalby won some of his battles but didn’t get any decent service Are you alright love ? Take a little lie down & if your anger issues continue pop to the doctors. These things can be fatal. Quote

One of those balls lands tonight it's a different story. We just need that bit of quality I know Burstow hasn't been playing well, but he's twice done post match interviews this season, complimenting quality crosses that he scored from. Both times he said if they keep coming, he'll keep scoring. OK, some goals have come from going on the outside and cutting it back, but in general early, accurate crosses really have been in short supply. What's the postman up to these days? Quote

onefinfrandsen Posted January 20 Posted January 20 16 minutes ago, bwfc4ife said: Because he’s a fucking donkey. The couple half chances the had, headers from corners were his man. Needlessly putting it Into touch at every opportunity despite knowing they’re aiming for long throws, nearly gave a pen away which was a pen. Picked up a silly yellow and couldn’t make a 5 yard pass. Forino > Johnston Is that enough of an explanation? Thought our 3 central defenders were solid tonight with everything they threw at us. Was almost the perfect away performance if Mcatee had polished off one of our breaks. Quote
marple whites Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Not great, certainly second half although wind and rain looked bad. important not to lose and another clean sheet. they have let in-least in the division and only lost at home to Cardiff, so not a bad point. need 6 from our 2 upcoming home games Quote
TrickyTrotter Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Solid defensive performance. Needed Simons goal bound shot to go in first half. Subs made little impact, Macca aside. Gale never once attempted to beat a man in the time he was on the pitch. Content rather than happy with the point, but need back to back home wins now. Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted January 20 Posted January 20 (edited) Very pleased with our commitment and stickability tonight would have been easy to throw in the towel. Edited January 20 by Mounts Kipper Quote
W.cramp Posted January 20 Posted January 20 A good point in a game where the little of it we saw was like watching a game played with one of them plastic flyaway balls when you were 10. Quote
Marc505 Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Grim that. Saved somewhat by coming to this chicken place, its a proper set up like Popeyes or KFC etc, but the chicken came on warbies medium? Anyway it was good. I'm drenched. Quote
