In x4

 

Have we ever won here ? Has it ever not be shit ? 

I'm just sick of the same shit again more than anything else really.

Miss a big chance, go a goal or 2 behind, awful referee, their strikers suddenly finding form, Nombe in particular turning to prime Ronaldo against us again and again.

That half was identical to the Wycombe game except Wycombe are actually good and these are pants.

Just sick of it all.

We can keep expecting us to come back, it won't happen every game.

Awful performance.

We need some bite, too many players go missing in games like this

Rodriguez is a luxury we can't afford. 

I genuinely didn't notice he was on the pitch till he put that 20 yard pass into touch.  Very odd performance.

Another game this where the imbalance of our squad is laid bare, SS has arguably too much choice in forward areas but is trying to play a back 4 with two wingbacks. 

When he almost reluctantly went to 3 at the back at Wigan and then Stevenage we looked solid, unlikely to concede and with a base to let Conway and Tutu be as high up as they prefer to be. 

That 4, with just Sheehan and Erhahon in front of them is far too easily turned over and countered against. That last 10 mins was like the Reading game revisited

You're being generous to Nombe. He's done nowt and scored two scruffy goals that the keeper might/should have saved.

So 2 players that should have started coming on! Really don’t rate Schumaker at times

Despite folk criticising the defenders, the lack of bite in midfield is once again the issue for me.

We do get done down our left, and folk slag Conway off, but he can't be expected to be bombing forward and overlapping etc and be back instantaneously. 

Don't mind three in midfield, but for me, two of them need to be EE and Dempsey. 

It's been an issue for years.

Goes back to the Sheehan debate: great ability, but goes missing at times. Sometimes too slow to use the ball- as are the defenders at times.

Away from home, another side capable of mixing it up, and we struggle.

Sheehan and Erhahon together just doesnt work in a middle 2, Sheehan's too weak for this formation. Fine in a 3 or with wing backs but doesnt work as a 2.

He’s done his job and I would love us to have someone like him.

Unlucky, decent move and good ball across from Dempsey 

4-2-4?

With Kenny and Dempsey on Sheehan should have more options and should improve. Even more bare at the back though, so we have to play this half around their box.

If they were passing it about nice and bonny it would be a different game, but our passes aren’t connecting and we’re second to loose balls. It’s poor - and we know by now that we have to be on top form to beat any team in this league.

The back 4 I meant as is always the case. They look great knocking 5 yard passes to each other. As soon as they’re under pressure or asked to defend there’s more question marks than a Green Party bog door 

Yess get it. 

Good work from Burstow at far post to get it back across

Get the fuck in 

Yes

Dempsey and Kenny create

Dempsey corner again does the business 

GET THE FUCK IN

And it begins 🙂

Their keeper timewasting. Never ends well for them, that.

He's won a load of headers and flick on's.  His 2 finishes were clinical, not saying they were unsaveable but they were put where they needed to be with pace and accuracy.  Not sure the 2nd would have been a goal if we'd had that situation.

Gale gets on my tits - all he does is cut in and shoot - never passes and is usually blocked. 

Are we the only team without someone who take a long throw?

Dempsey first name on teamsheet in midfield for me.

I thought that before we realised he's the only one that can take a corner (excluding Christie) and now its a mystery to me how he gets dropped so much.

Get Tutu off
