big ben Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 we didn't play well tonight but wasn't overly impressed with Plymouth we'll have em next time lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 We've failed to score in 7 of our last 10 and have now lost 5 of our last 8. I think we'll start picking up results again once we hit the easier run of fixtures in November, but it might be best to just park ideas about finishing in the top six for now.

The 'get the ball forward' crew get on my tits. It's fucking shite watching your keeper hoof a ball upfield in the hope something happens. When we get the ball on the floor we are better. We are built to play out from the back. Sometimes we are too patient but we are a work in progress. I'll take passing it around the back 4 over long ball any day of the week. There are times (& the last 10 minutes tonight were one of them) where you get the ball forward quickly & make them defend in horrendous conditions so you might benefit from the kind of howler we conceded.

What the club doesn’t need are supporters acting like knob ends and turning on them. If we knew best we’d be managing the club, but we’re not so let’s just remain calm. Its currently shite, let’s give all concerned a chance to put it right eh? Well said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radcliffe white Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Expected fuck all if I’m honest pissed wet through Jussi got fucked over for holding onto the ball Plymouth keeper took piss, 2nd half better kachungas contract needs terminating and if shanon was a bloke she’d be sparked out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mounts Kipper Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I’m not in the least bit concerned Evatt will get it right, hopefully first thing he will tell Kachunga to start pulling the trigger when 1 on 1 and 6 yards out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainmed Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Good god. Another shambles. Concede first again. Don’t score again. Never mind anyway.

Johnnyrotten Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 24 minutes ago, Take Hunt Off said: Brockbank isn’t good enough , Gordon has his faults but does try to get forward Sarc scores we are back in it as we definitely shaded the second half Last goal farcical but conditions to blame although Dixon’s decision making was shite on that one. I thought Brockbank did OK until that suicidal pass to Gordon, but generally was sound in possession and I disagree Gordon gets forward more, there were a few times Brockbank overlapped, possibly more than Gordon. But saying that everyone waiting for John to return, I've not noticed much of a difference between the 2 this season. They both have qualities but for next season I'd like to see a bit more pace and strength at left back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brockbank ain’t making the grade at Bolton, good luck to the lad and he’ll have a career but it won’t be here.

We’re nowhere near where we want to be but I think it takes 4/5 years of solid recruitment & investment and good decision making to be in a position to consistently win football matches, see Brentford, that’s our model.

How anyone thought we'd be challenging the top 6 with our lack of strikers and squad depth is anyone's guess. Happy where we are, just need a goal and a win Saturday to stop a poor run becoming a real concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickyTrotter Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 (edited) We made a woeful start and were shell shocked 1st half. I feared the worst. I was more encouraged 2nd half. I thought we were much better but scoring goals remains issue. Sarce should have buried his chance and Kachunga should have shot instead of passing when through on goal. One of those go in and we were back in it. Last goal was farcical and caused by the weather, nothing else. Ref would never have started the game in those conditions but was determined to finish it. We need to get our best 11 fit and rebuild from there. Jones looks out for weeks so right back remains an issue. Don't see many credible options beyond Brocky. John has been in and out with injuries or illness all season, not sure what is going on with him. But when he's fit he plays ahead of Gordon. I still fancy us this season.

But why does it need to be one or the other?, why can't you have a physical presence up front and still play football into feet etc, they don't need to alter the fundamentals. I haven't watched tonight but doenst sound like Bakayoko has done much unfortunately. However, which ever way you cut it that is 14 games!!, almost a third of the season, without a goal from open play from our striker!! That has to raise questions of the formations and tactics if nothing else, that is a crazy stat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like addiction to anything else; drugs, alcohol, gambling, etc., she's got to see it herself and until she realises the gangs of lads, many who are old enough to know better, egging her on aren't doing it because they're her friends but because they see a weakness in her need to be centre of attention. Until she gets that, she can't be helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
