Scored twice again but yet again woeful defence.. Shockingly our goal difference would put us second in the league on goals for....but 3rd bottom for goals against.
Utter idiocy at the end- don't Eze and BOS know about just holding onto the ball by their corner flag. Great sub performance by BOS marred by that nonsense at the end. 2 points given away.
But most of the time and throughout this season, we did show very promising football. Of course I am (very) dissappointing with the result but overall I do enjoy the R´s 2019/20. We need to keep BOS, Eze and BFG but get rid off the likes of Wells.
Goal scored on 90' +5 after 4th official gave 4 mins extra. Cameron had to try and header the ball. I'm more interested in trying to figure out why the player behind him wasn't marked by someone else in the team.
I was in the upper loft planning in my head to start the 'Daverangers Eurostar Fund', but it wasn't to be. Wells should have put us ahead with his one on one chance, but he fluffed it. Really didn't look that self-assured as he approached the keeper. BOS was immense, and on the way back to the car debate with my brothers and Dad over whether or not he'd have the same impact if he started, or is he best used as a second half impact sub. Guess we won't know unless he gets a run of starts. Eze, BOS and Chair give me hope that, if we can hold on to them, which I know is a big if, the future is bright (no pun intended). They were a rough side, and clearly came ready to push, shove and barge Eze from the off and make his life as uncomfortable as possible. They did well to keep him quiet until the game went on and Eze found a bit more space, but they did well to keep him well marked. All in all, a frustrating draw given how late they equalised, and maybe we need to learn that a one goal cushion just isn't enough, we need to keep pushing until we have a 2/3 goal cushion. Obviously easier said than done, but when we sit back to defend a lead we don't, we conceed.
It showed +5 minutes after 90 on the Officials stream. Those 2 points lost were down to the likes of Eze and BOS going for goal in those 5 minutes, rather than playing keep ball by the corner flags. Totally brain dead. Plus Wells missing 2 huge chances.
Cameron! How does this bloke get a game over Ball and Scowen? Absolute sickener. Will just look bitter now lamenting that awful referee and Pratley.
Where are the on-pitch leaders who can make sure we don't give it away? Is there no communication? Game management has been abysmal this season and today was a perfect example of giving away 2 points...
MW has brought us forward, but it’s very much a work-in-progress. This defence needs sorting (as we all know) and we may lose some players which will need replacing, but it’s a much better season than the last. Feeling better about where we are as a club ... but still bloody frustrated at our game management, based on the points we have thrown away. Nevertheless, I remain optimistic if MW can be provided the support he needs by the club - with all the restraints we are under for this season - we can still move forward again.
wBad result, very promising performance. We will not get up but yet again I do like watching the R´s for the first time since 19xx. So if anyone should call me the German Butt bear in mind it is all about the R´s. Have a good Christmas Time and maybe you will come over and have a cup of Glühwein on the Continent.
Crazy score line, should’ve been 3up at interval & no excuses for missing those chances, passing again at times very sloppy, should’ve seen the game out & with it at 2-1 we looked dodgy & so it proved, so frustrating watching rangers & creating space & chances & not making right decisions, spoilt Christmas a bit.
