Really think we need Wades experiance with the run in. Really think Jet needs to be on the pitch for the run in,he causes so much danger,the opposition don't have a clue how to handle him. Barnsley did not let us play,were on our players like a rash,LJ has a good team there, if they hit the play-offs they could do it. Thought we were very very average today,only came awake in the last ten minutes.
Felt the team lacked control and guidance, and that's what Elliott came on and done. We've a team of good potential captains but today it needed Elliott to come on and guide them. Once he was on it was just city going for it.
The result yesterday was almost a given after the euphoria of last Sunday. Given we were 2-1 down with 7 minutes left I see it as a point gained not 2 points dropped, Will be interested in the Fleetwood v PNE result later
'We've a team of good potential captains but today it needed Elliott to come on and guide them. Once he was on it was just city going for it' Elliott came on with 12 minutes to go and we're 2-1 down. Of course we're going to go for it or did you expect us to play out time and accept defeat. With Agard being subbed you could have brought my Dad on and we'd have had a better chance. Elliott, good player, made no difference at all. It was Agard(especially) and Little going off,and going to 4-4-2 that made the difference. And of course with 15 minutes to go we had to throw caution to the wind.
You are under estimating our teams fitness levels. Barnsley gave everything yesterday and really pressed all game. I thought they ran out of petrol for the last 15 mins and their (kid) keeper who I believe was making his debut, made some outstanding saves! Decent side with the right attitude, it was a fair result overall and to be expected (I did anyway) (We had 13 shots, 6 on target to their 3, of which they scored 2!)
