Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted November 12, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted November 12, 2022 The predictable over reaction again. We didn't get bullied out of it and got a reasonable point in the end. Dempsey couldn't get out the way of that fella for the sending off. If that's a booking, then so is their LB for blocking Bradley off 2 mins later. 2 or 3 very soft bookings. Thought the ref was a bit shit - is it because Evatt has a go at them too often? Maybe. If Baka and Charles were missing chance after chance, I'd be worried. They feed off less than an 80's Etheopian. Still not sure why Kachunga starts that game when Lee, Dapo and Sheehan who are all better are on the bench. Point gained Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't know and can't see what he (Evatt) is trying to implement or coach - I do like his passion for BWFC but I don't think that that he's as good a manager or coach as some of the fans who back him un conditionally think. However, I do think that under the circumstances it was a good point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point gained On the back of other results, another failure to score at a lower club isn't a great record though. Cambridge's last 5 home results: 0-2, 0-2, 0-1, 0-1 then they play us and get a 0-0. Last time we scored first from open play in the first 80 minutes was Morecambe, 15 games ago. Yes 2 pens scored as well, and we did come back v Charlton in the 1st half, but we can't deny that the pattern is that the starting XI is not good enough to open teams up and take the game by the scruff of the neck.

Farnywhite Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 12 minutes ago, Black Sheep said: Decent point IMO. However. I really haven't got a clue about 'Brand Evatt' - is it pressing, passing football or is it pass between the keeper & defenders for a while and then just hoof it. I honestly can't see anything that Evatt is improving or a 'specific' brand of football that he's trying to implement or coach, is it just me ? can everyone else see something good in how we play that I can't ? BTW that headed miss from Jones was shocking, it was harder to miss than score. Something as changed with the pressing game from a few months ago was wondering if the fitness levels have dropped of and they have run out of steam to play like that every week . Evatt said pre season we would have to be one of the fittest sides in the division Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulhanley Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Relieved we saw it out for a point while down to ten men and in the context of recent results a hard-fought away point will do for now. But...... we've not broken the troubling recent pattern in any way. Still no goal from open play in the first half of a league game for more than two months and we still generally look stodgy. Beggars can't be choosers. Could have been a whole lot worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 20 minutes ago, Eddie said: We were worse than this during the same period last year. Hopefully we can just keep in touch with the play offs until January and then work some magic once again for a 2nd half of the season charge. We were but we were so strapped for quality we ended up having to play Senior at full back at one stage. We didn't have anything like the squad depth we have now, which is a concern.

Don’t think I said that unless I was a bit pissed and don’t remember. Probably not happy with him and rightfully so but no I don’t want him sacked . think at present we’re seeing a lot of the squad need shipping out . Evatt does have to take the blame for tactics formation ect .but to get rid at this moment would be to far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
