ohgoditsjames Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) Anyone who actually went tonight would know we played decent. Both teams played positively, both had some great chances, both scored great goals and both defended very well. Saying that, the ref was diabolical in the 2nd half, how many hand balls? Burton were one of the better sides to come here. Edited March 7, 2017 by ohgoditsjames Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViolaOwls Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 You've been drinking son. Credit to them for seeing the game out. We lack that creativity to open poor teams up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crookesowl Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Agree with the OP. Burton made it very difficult. They parked their bus and were fortunate to get a point, although they sort of deserved it. People saying that was terrible... please explain how you break down a team that puts everyone behind the ball like that. I thought we tried everything, it nearly paid off. Need to take the point, stick together, stay positive, and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannan and jones did nothing wrong tonight it was the poor balls into the box from out wide and im sure abdi isnt a winger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradowl Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 On another day we'd have comfortably won by 3 or 4-1 without playing any differently. Just wouldn't go in for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think oh they are going to sit back so we can't win? You have to get behind them and get at them, yes we need to stay positive and I'm all for it but disagree with what you say regarding 'how do you beat these ' etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockieOwl Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Also agree with the OP. Played much better than in games we won like Rotherham and Blackburn. Burton parked the bus and then tried to catch us on the counter, as in Leicester last year, although thought Jones did well to stop many of the counters. Not sure you can call that positive play but everything else I agree with. Another day that would have also been 5-1 but nothing seemed to fall for us in the box.

Past Member Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Poor display, but played worse. Our crosses & corners were shocking all night, until Reach came on. Very wasteful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I am saying is that there is no magic formula, you have to be tenacious and try everything. I thought we did that but it just didn't happen.
