William Golding, wrote a book called...Lord of the Flies (there us a movie as well).. Perhaps he was presageing football forums???
You are wrong, again. People accept different opinions. If its followed by such sad negative comments about 'never going to score' or 'in the play offs now' with 9 games still to go then it's easily assumed that you are a Mag or at best a proper negative fan who one would wonder why you even follow football.
It was always going to be must win. Nothing has changed, every game is must win when you are at the top of the league.
For me there was nothing wrong with that starting lineup, we were the best team in that 1st half and looked good, we were 2nd best when Ferguson used his subs but as we know we have a bench that’ll match any subs other teams have. When he changed it after the goal we were the better team again. All that was missing in the first half was a goal from that starting line up. It’s a squad game now until the end of season and we have the best squad in the league. Wyke was good today as well, picked up balls and won a fair few headers. You talk ****
"Scowen and Obrien on at half time would have pushed them back." "Scowen lol." Wolfy, Feb 27th, 2021 "What a waste of space that Stewart is. Ridiculous signing an injured player, LJ needs to admit he’s ****ed up." Wolfy,Mar 2nd, 2021
you know what marra?.. i do try to keep out of the 'he said she said' bollocks that forums inevitably throw up but you are 100% correct (as others have been) in that some people just sit there waiting for a bad result just so they can complain about something, even when on a good run they will choose a player to put down even if that player improves they can never see it (recent examples, scowen and winchester) or rather, prefer not to. we have scraped by with some under par performances, in this league it all comes down to getting the ball in the net and we have done/are doing that, i mentioned this months ago, teams can and do play some decent stuff at times but the amount of times 'easy' goals are missed is criminal...but that is why strikers who can hit the inside of the net on a regular basis are the most expensive players. feck them and feck any negativity, even if we fail to go up this season we should storm it next with LJ in charge, early draws in the season have cost us an easier time of things and none of them were the fault of the current team or management, as we ALL said back then it was our 'score and sit back' approach that cost us.
I have posted many times that we have no real full backs at the club, and have often said we should play 3 at the back , O/9 and Sanderson have performed miracles in covering Power and MacF. to date, but far too much is asked of them. Much better to have started today with Connor Mc alongside O/9 and Sanderson imo. That leaves seven options to play around with, to beat the opposition senseless.
I thought we carried a few today, wasn’t impressed with Peterborough either. Not a bad result and still in our hands, we have players coming back from injury as well so it’s looking positive. Would like to see Wyke stick in and around the box more, he’s drifting wide looking for the ball and when we regain possession he hasn’t got the pace to get back into the box, he looks better with OBrien doing the donkey work for him, it allows Wyke to hunt in and around the box. Onwards and upwards
Wasn’t wrong about Stewart though, it was ridiculous signing him when we needed someone who would have an immediate impact. Tell me what’s wrong about that statement? I’m intrigued.
He was fouled 6 times in the first half. 3 of them were yellow cards and one red. They got 2 yellow cards for the fouls. He became much less effective after the shocking 2 footer imo. Looked like he was scared of getting hurt
Another poster who never celebrates a goal on here. Never has a celebratory “get in”. Funny how, when Stewart played well, you forget about that post. But you happen to say you were right when he doesn’t have as much impact.
Seems to me it's not a case of not abusing anyone but it's definitely a case of abusing/insulting everyone. Been a few other posters in the past with exactly the same complaints and exactly the same posting style. But I bet none of them were you now, where they?
Any keeper would be - especially after they have positioned themselves too wide to get back across to it. Maybe he misjudged the wind? Ideally Geads should have put the ball a bit closer to the post and made sure the keeper couldn’t get to it. But he put it away and that's all that matters!
Really not had chance to read all the comments today but watched it with my patients and we all thought the same. We were stronger side, mostly looked comfortable but they defended really well. Their attack was always going to have their moments and they did but overall a good point but we could have nicked more. I still feel relaxed about the rest of the season. We will continue to win most games, cannot see us losing where as Hull and Peterborough I certainly can. We also have players returning and will get stronger as other teams get weaker
You criticise virtually every player we have, you criticise Johnson and you have a tantrum if Leadbitter plays. "Going to do the unthinkable and agree with smug. Wyke needs dropping, anonymous all game yet again. Give Stewart a start against Posh, looks a much bigger threat and he actually looks interested." "Wasn’t wrong about Stewart though, it was ridiculous signing him when we needed someone who would have an immediate impact."
