I hope we go for and get a second and THEN play with confidence.. Get that 2nd then make a statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat Owl Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 JUst imagine how much of a birthday someone with pace would have against this lot... Usual stuff, we need another one or two to kill the game off, otherwise a mistake by us or the referee will cost us. I didn't think there would be side that carries less threat than us. Hooper hasn't shaken off having studs raked down his Achilles after about 15 minutes.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marconi Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Serve Hanley right if the ref sees the constant shirt pulling in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theowlsman Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Hoops took a kick from their left back in about the 10th minute. Been limping ever since but would assume only bruising and a bit tender, like Delia’s chicken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope we don't go into our shells and let the inevitable equaliser happen. Thats what weve done, attack attack ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fouled them when necessary, broke up play - very solid performance from a good pro experienced in the dark arts. I agree, he's getting pelters on here but clearly his designated role today is 'spoiler', plain and simple. He's doing that, just needs to do it without giving away a free kick every other tackle.

He was providing the attacking width. As always our fullbacks start high up. Can't blame him for a Bannan giving possession away that deep.

I'm an Essex Owl Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 We are the least worst of two teams clearly lacking confidence. We slowed down after we scored when a decent side would have gone up a gear and taken advantage and gone in at half time 2 or 3 up. Doubt Norwich can play worse than that in the second half. So unless we are willing to up the tempo and (seriously) attempt to score again, I have a bad feeling about this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how i saw it I purposely didn't come into the thread and am amazed that there's negativity especially about Jones he's done all that's asked of him in the centre breaking up play and just staying out of the book when he probably should have been cautioned 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the monk Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I'm getting old , even though we are winning I just can't see the positives . We give the ball away so casually , stupid needless free kicks , absolutely no aggession in the tackle or to close players down . And to cap it all no one seems to mind ,players, commentators , fans , no one bats an eye Norwich are garbage and there to be taken , speed it up FFS!!!!

Way too forward. Thankfully we got away with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players were waltzing past him and he gave it away a lot. The defence is playing well though. I can’t tell you how nice it is to see van aken taking shorter strides when he is facing up!

Guest Copthorneowl Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Hooper definitely off his normal pace and quality today perhaps carrying a knock. This game is crying out for some pace I think Joao would ideal with 25 to go their defenders look as nervous as ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
