Doom and gloom shows you’ve not read any of my other posts.

it’s a brilliant result and I’ve said the game plan today was spot on.

im highlightjng the goal because a moment of madness from the team has cost an unreal result
Sorry mate, comma missing or not but you called out 1 player as costing us 3 points.

The doom and gloom was aimed at all social media not just your post

Whatever mate you can’t appreciate that I’m obviously not singly blaming o9 for the goal but his part in it was very poor.

mepham was too high

as was alese.

But you did in the original post I called out, you didn't mention Mepham or Alese at all.

Am I missing something in your original post?

I highlighted how poor his part in the goal was which is what I’ve now replied to you multiple times. His part was undoubtedly the worst imo but he’s not sole to blame
 
No he’s not but we didn’t have one. And he was the best option to do it at that time. The lad coming on for his debut under the cosh was not

He would be better playing in his actual position other than a second striker no?
 
He was playing riggs usual role which is a 10. Off the ball sitting in the bank of 2

he was in his natural position. He’s not a centre midfielder

But that's not where Rigg plays for us or occupies his pace for us. He has very much played as a CM. The serb is also an 8 who plays more centrally. Definitely not as high as today.

Rigg plays high. He operates in the half space between the 10 and the RW. He doesn’t play an 8
 
I'd love to know what realistic changes could have been made to protect the lead when we had a bunch of bairns on the bench with squad makeweights who he doesn't want to play because they can'[t play in his system.

Have Ba and Aouchiche suddenly become world beaters because of the hypothetical argument that they would have changed the game?

That was my 1st thought when I saw the bench. Not a lot of experience at all. Weakest we've had this season and hardly any games of note between them. Can't see what else he could have done. I'm pleased with the point tbh.

Another option would've been Harrison Jones, if he's on the bench? He's very reliable, even if not at the level.

The serb played higher than them all and he normally doesn't. Rigg isn't a CM. We have had to use him there.

Either way it was a mistake to leave Rigg on and use the serb so high. Evidence of the game shows this.

Once again ‘the Serb’ is an advanced midfielder he didn’t play too high
 
For 10 minutes we are talking mate, you could have played Ba there for 10 mins and said graft ya nuts off and that's it...

But anyway, we didn't deserve to win, so we can't cry too much
I don’t think we deserved to not get any points. We defended perfectly until the last minute
