We were off colour today Rigg had a poor game Ballard played a stinker Our forward line still exciting Our midfield were overrun at times and we lacked THAT press It happens...still think we'll get back to winning ways
Really disappointing we didn't at least see the draw through. However still top you can't win them all, learning curve from today. Still an incredible start to the season let's keep positive. Onto Sat we go.
Disappointing result today. Really didn't see it coming but Plymouth had a good home record last season and evidently we still have lessons to learn as a team. Hopefully we give Boro a good beating now.
Poor day at the office. It happens, it's about how we respond now. A fair bit off it in the defensive areas, Ballard had a bit of a nightmare in particular which he seems to have every so often. Patterson very poor for the 3rd, the lack of reaction by the defence to the rebound is not good enough either. Midfield was pretty good first half, but was overran in the 2nd. Not a knock on the lad but Rigg was targeted and was ran off constantly. In the attacking areas I think Mundle was good, offers a different skillset to Clarke and is absolutely not a downgrade. Roberts didn't offer his usual ball carrying, probably his worst game of the season despite scoring. Mayenda very hit and miss, some good hold up one minute but gets bullied the next minute. Browne and Mepham plus possibly Isidor in for the Boro game. We are still top, 12 points from 15, scored in every game. I trust we'll bounce back.
Hate losing but you learn more than when you’re winning. RLB needs to get the lesson learned and so we don’t repeat it next time. Every team we play is going to look at that second half and use it as a blue print to play against us. If we get it right things keep rolling, if we don’t the wheels might start getting a bit wobbly.
He probably didn't have a clear view of the first shot - but you do like to single him out for criticism for some reason
Mate what. Patterson was extremely poor for the third goal. You limit a team to 30 yard pop shots your keeper has to deal with them. He parried it back into the danger zone, which he does countless times and did loads last season. He’s not good with the ball at his feet either
Shouldn't have been on the pitch tbf should have been booked for the tussle with mundle earlier then the booking he got was him off.
I thought Rigg was canny first half, but as they pressed us with physicality and aggression he started to look his age. We changed it too late.
Pissed right off with that like. Gave them 3 clear cut shots right at the end of the game shocking defending. Should have been out of sight first half tbf
A couple of years ago I thought Patterson would really kick on and have a really good career. I’m not so sure now.
They absolutely can help, but it's far too simplicitic to say we needed more experience to see the game out. There was enough talent n experience on the pitch but they just didn't deliver - that's football 1 defeat from 5 is a cracking start to the season, we need to bounce back against a very tough boro side next weekend though Be interesting what changes, if any he makes for that game. It's far too easy to say let's make lots of changes after 1 defeat when we won 4 on the bounce before that Said this game would be a banana skin, gutted that it turned out that way We move on and look for a positive reaction next match
Bad day but we move on . Let's see how they all react players and coaching staff. We've made a great start 4 wins in 5 games . A very young team at the end of the day. I'm still optimistic and way more than pre season. Play offs is realistic target maybe not the top two spots. The last 10 championship seasons and 6th place has been between 69 and 75 points most of the time. We have 12 points today . 41 games to get another 63 points to 75. So that's 1.5 points a game. 8 points from every 5 games we can do that I'm sure. Haway the lads !!! Championship - Table | Transfermarkt
