I was'nt going to post, as I did'nt see it but I can feell all sorts of anti belgian sentiment welling up inside me. For the moment, sufice to say that this has now gone beyond inaceptable. We have half a transfer window left. My honest opinión is that Jose Riga showed guile to get us out of the mess he found us in with the players he had. Peeters, like Powell, is floundering like a fish out of wáter, and we're dropping fast. Someone needs to get to grips with this situation.
We are going down with the Millwall, goal from a set piece. Same mistakes and lack of urgency in first half, Goalkeeper is not the answer. Watt looks good, good to have Wiggins back. That is it. I am going to get my bottle of Malt Whisky and I am going to give it a good seeing to.
Just dire today, all I can say. Not playing to the whistle on penalty appeals, can't defend set peices, can't take set peices, can't keep the ball. Wiggins was good to have back, Solly was well, Solly, Watt looked energetic (or was that just everyone being so sh!te?) And even Church seemed fired up. Shocking day at the office, as it seems to be happening more often. Keeper was in no man's land for the goal too. I'm done, lost my voice and well, just arghhh, shall go to the pub to calm down
Has to go - another(!!!!) Set piece. He's too pig headed to make it as a manager. I'm officially done with Bob.
Just got worse and worse, until we ended up with strikers + Bikey up front, total rabble. Brighton worked hard for each other and were well organised, we didn't and weren't.
yep, our tactics are sh1t. he cannot complain about being light on the ground anymore - that was the strongest team we've had out since october. no round pegs in square holes and we end up with 3 strikers on and bikey up front. he needs to bloody create chances for the strikers! flood the midfield, take all the possession and use the players properly. bob, unfortunately is inept when it comes to this. just keeps pushing people forward and leaving gaps at the back. what does it say to our subs bench when instead of putting a centre midfielder on to replace another, that he disrupts our entire formation by moving solly in there. solly was having a great game at RB.
It's feeling to inevitable each game, to not win. And i do not like this feeling gents, somebody pull me from this black hole !
A real horror A real horror show yesterday. 36 min until we had our first shot at goal against a side positioned 21st in the table ? Not good enough. Too many players nicking a living off us at the moment, a feel accentuated by paying "Gold game prices" for tickets before kick off plus even more lay out for Watford away tickets next Saturday. I never begrudge the cost until you get the feeling that certain people of Belgian extraction are pulling your pants down.
I have admired Johnnie Jackson from Day One as a Charlton player but we all have to accept now that he is playing from memory. Picking him is akin to starting a game with ten men. My son looked up after half an hour of texting his mates yesterday and asked me "why isn't Jackson playing today?" . I had to inform him that the skipper was indeed out there, somewhere. Time to draw a line under the under gash that is Wilson, Tucadean and Etheridge. If those three are Championship standard players then my name is Ed Miliband.
I found it a bit odd that Dave Lockwood felt the need to announce that Jackson was injured. I feel that all is not right between Peeters and some of the senior pros. This is showing on the pitch. There seems to be a certain inevitability about us. Miss chances, concede goal from set piece. Judging by what Katrien and Peeters have said there will be no more money spent this window. If that is the case we need someone to get us out of this hole and that man is not Bob Peeters.
A few beers and a decent sleep usually results in me calming down - but not today. Travel back from mainland Europe for that rubbish and will now go to stanstead having no intention if making the same mistake next week. Unless Bob is sacked. Clueless idiot.
Was happy that Wilson started but he was incredibly bad, worst I've seen him play. Not many positives, Watt looking decent about it.
Tough for Wilson who hasn't even been getting under 21 games to be thrown in. Add that to Bob has almost manipulated formations so others get selected ahead of him, then it was no surprise to see him not perform to last season standards.
I like Wilson, really do, but yeah, his lack of game time this season showed, he had an absolute mare, worked hard whenever he lost the ball chasing after it, but sadly he lost it for too often. Annoyed me is our lack of closing players down when they have it in their back 4, we just stood off them until Church came on. Seen the replays and WTF was Etheridge doing for the goal? He commits and then pulls out allowing the Brighton player to head it in, I saw that this morning and it just got me angry again.
Wilson's performance can't be blamed on lack of game time; it has to be blamed on ineptness. He was scared of the ball and kept hiding behind Cousins in a sort of right of centre midfield role giving no option on the flank for Solly and forcing Solly to pass backwards whilst also clogging up the midfield and dragging Brighton's winger and full back inside a little to completely block every option. Brighton's players must have been wondering how he scored against them last year. We may as well have had ****ing Wilson from that Tom Hanks film playing.
