Wanderlust Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Could be a defining game this after putting to bed our Xmas blip and away hoodoo with a new system. Away at one of our nearest rivals with the added pressure of them having two games in hand on us already is a proper test of whether or not this system is the answer. Let’s hope so. COYWM Quote
Eavesy Posted January 20 Posted January 20 26 minutes ago, Johnnyrotten said: I rated Iredale (above all the other options/replacements). Plenty couldn't wait to see the back of him after Orient, but we missed him last season IMO. He was a downgrade on John. Iredale was supposedly signed as John couldn’t defend apparently, yet we spent most matches on the front foot with the ball, so we ended up worse off as Iredale couldn’t attack as well as John. Bizarre really. Quote

CambridgeBWFC Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Good block from Forinho, bit slack in the middle Quote
ianofcleveleys Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Hats off to their groundsman, pitch looks in excellent condition Quote
bwfc4ife Posted January 20 Posted January 20 First 5, it’d be nice if one of the 600 passes actually got us out of our half Quote

Winchester White Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Stevenage are one of those well drilled hard working sides looking dangerous at set pieces. Keep it tight and hopefully they will tire as the game goes on giving us a bit more space. Quote
CambridgeBWFC Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Good move there, but there press is high and decent Quote
ianofcleveleys Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Meanest defence in league for a reason, proper percentages side, first and foremost don't concede then gain territory and hope for mistakes and set pieces. Quote
Wanderlust Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Need to stop giving away set pieces in our half - it’s their bread and butter Quote
CambridgeBWFC Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Looked like we may have got away with that penalty call Quote
CumbrianWhite Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Decent start but lucky to avoid a penalty there. Rash from Johnstone. Quote
bwfc4ife Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Johnston looking like a possible liability tonight, needs to get switched on Quote

Otherwise we're playing pretty well, knocking it about well and made a couple of decent chances. Still not crossing it soon / often enough Quote

But later in the game when we brought on the subs and upped the tempo the wide men were far more positive and took defenders on / crossed more. Just need to be a bit braver to get through them. Quote
Bryan458 Posted January 20 Posted January 20 ACD keeps hitting the first defender crossing, really frustrating!! Quote
Bertie Posted January 20 Posted January 20 This division really is a tough watch. Half the teams seem to sit in with them low blocks, the other half its hoof ball from free kicks and throw ins. 🥱 Quote

For me hes a second half sub impact player against tired legs. He's perfect for that, not sure he fits in this 343/523, sometimes feels like were a player down. Quote

At least four good opportunities down right for ACD and Tutu, none of them finding target. Got to make more of them. Quote
CambridgeBWFC Posted January 20 Posted January 20 Not convinced with that from Bonham, but got away with it Quote
