Most said they would take a point before a ball was kicked, it's the nature of the way we totally conceded the second half that hurts. We can play great football but seem to have only one plan for the second half, sit back and try to hold out.
Ba on for Mayenda seemed the obvious sub to make. Can only think that Ba is really bad tactically. Anyway, top of the league and the lads grafted their nuts off.
Dunno about putting AA on for Rigg in the middle of the park but I would've put Ba on for Mayenda and maybe AA for Watson
**** you on about. They are better than players who are literally out on their feet. If they are not being used in this instant may aswell terminate their deals. RLb needs to make subs to stop games like.this just pissing away 2 points. It's a constant.
Before people **** their pants. We had 3 players suspended, 3 injured so just the 6 players missing. To concede so late is frustrating, but it's not the end of the world
I would have taken a point before the game. Absolutely. No doubt about it. But it's incredibly frustrating this away second half thing. It's many games and the same lack of subs is costing us points.
Good point in isolation its a kick in the balls 2 games on the trot, welcome bodies back Tuesday thankfully
Why is it so frustrating following us. That's really like 4 points thrown away and yes while we said a point would be good at the start that should have been so much better Don't understand the use of subs at all.
True but I think it was because it was right at the end when they scored. Got be wet need to be better at managing the game when we're ahead in the back end of a game
Has he done a bad job? Have you missed the bit where we are top of the league? Unbeaten in 9, 2 defeats in 17. Good point at a tough team with 12 players missing.
A very good point when you look at the players we had missing. I am happy with it frankly. There is a bit of a trend emerging with Regis and his ability to adapt to manage a lead. But, like our lads, he is young and learning on the job. We remain well ahead of where I thought we would be so will enjoy the malt tonight.
Once again i'm going to talk about possession and ball retention. We had 38% possession today against the team in the league that averages the least possession in the league. Now that is fine if we are going to stay in shape and control the game by forcing them into areas of the pitch that benefit us, but we don't. Look at the goal, why on earth are we so disjointed? You have one or the other, control through possession or control through a solid shape, you can't have neither. I'm not asking us to have 80% of the ball and bore teams to death, we just need control. We are a side that is built for possession, we aren't built for sitting in deep and defending.
It’s the play style we’ve done it every game. its worked more than it hasn’t. And its the reason we’ve picked up more points away than most
it’s not the manner we’ve conceded in that goal it’s the way our gaffer has managed that second half you can’t equate being happy with a point pre game to be happy with how he’s managed that
The lads where out on their feet, could we have made subs? Possibly but who on the bench would anyone been happy thro8ng into that?
Aleksic should have busted the net with that chance one on one with the keeper, even if he had put it past the post they wouldn't have went straight down the other end and score. Coach also needs to do better when we are out on our feet and he's not making subs
