    Not difficult is it.

    Some people seem to see every goal we concede, or point we drop, as a personal attack on them …

    … your job is to support the team, not advise on tactics or pick the team, opinions are great but that’s all they are.

    Especially when you’re not as clever as you think you are. The football is supposed to be fun, for some it seems to be eternal anguish and anger.

    I can see this ‘handball’ shyte going on for weeks …

    … can’t be long until someone posts that we got three lucky points and it’s papering over the cracks <laugh>

    I thought early on we gave the ball away cheaply, then as usual came out sluggish at the start of the second half.

    Sky hate us, apparently its fine for our GK to be "pinned" when has that been legal? Refs are ****. Sky even put the rule up v handball, so it was a handball, for our first goal, I didnt know that was a rule. I didnt see that when the Hull player started playing basketball. And Isiador wasnt offside,

    I mean last night you had Prutton, Hinchcliffe, Wickham and Morrison all ex Sheff Wed.

    The main commentator was probably a ball boy there previously.

    think we need to focus on out scoring the opposition

    we are reasonably solid but think we need more adventure than caution.

    nothing wrong with keeping our shape and working on a unified press but think we’ve got weapons to be on the front foot a bit more.

    bit of a conundrum because the jobe and Neil midfield is so balanced but 2 strikers, 2 wingers and le fee central screams problems for teams in this league.

    My only real gripe is I feel we are mishandling Aleksic.

    The season overall has been superb. Dips, yes. Faults, yes. But 4th, with a 14 point gap to 5th, and clinging on to parachute payment clubs with huge squads with ex PL players? Superb.

    Another positive for me last night was the cameo by Harrison Jones, his composure, decision making and ball retention was spot on under the circumstances. Having seen a lot of him in the U21's I think he has a great future ahead of him, Along with Mayenda and a few others who exemplify our long term progress,no matter what the outcome of this season . OaU .

    Was immaculate and completely unflusterred. Did a great job.

    Towards the end you could actually see their players wilting …

    … if we can get half of that at the SOL players wouldn’t feel so comfortable here.

    Try being in it :emoticon-0140-rofl::emoticon-0140-rofl:

    absolutely brilliant last night and limbs all over the place when Mayenda scored right in front of us.

    Hillsborough is an absolute ****hole though. Needs pulling down

    I’d like to see him play, I think we will.

    We’re gathering real talent so they all have to be patient …

    … and Watson’s fit now <laugh>
