MRGRIM Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I'm not even annoyed, should I be? Game was lost in the first 45. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHERSTATE Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 One thing is this season is we don't get beaten for hard work Today we did, big time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspector Lestrade Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 (edited) Been saying it all season we never replaced Hooper and Joao with a quality forward, it will be our undoing if we don't rectify this glaring error in the January window. Unless promotion wasn't on the agenda for this season. Edited December 26, 2019 by Inspector Lestrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truth is, we deserved nowt from the game, and any points we went home with would have been absolutely stolen from Stoke. As fantastic as Iorfa has been this season, IMO the first and third goals are down to his individual mistakes. Not that he should ruminate on that too long... the entire team was turd for the majority of the game, and two set-piece goals doesn't undo that. Ultimately we were outfought and outclassed by an opposition that just wanted it more. Too many passengers in our side unfortunately.

s6 owl Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 It doesn't surprise me any more with this lot its part of their makeup to lose their heads as soon as the pressure hits and when they scored in the 93rd i knew they would go on to win, it will more than likely happen a few more times this season too.

nevthelodgemoorowl Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 At least we get a good level of consistency from most of our armchair fans. Scramble football from Stoke paid off, aided to a great extent by the referees equal treatment of the sides with a foul count of 26 - 5 in Stokes favour. Stoke battled hard and got the rub we can't grumble at the result. We had some poor performances from back to front only Dawson shone MOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Never got hold of the ball all match. Total lack of application from the start. Commentators saying this Wednesday side never knows when it is beaten. Oh really! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikka Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Giving away goals and losing points in that last 5 minutes of play has become too ingrained as a habit - without which , despite rarely playing well this season , we'd be in the top two. Come on you coaches - what is the cause - and what ( apart from confidence ) is the solution ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Poor performance all round, can live with that if it proves to be a win off, 2 winnable homes games coming up that we have to make count. It would have been daylight robbery had we come away with 3 points considering how bad we were for the first hour but effective teams know how to get results when they are not playing well. We almost managed it but our panic station stuff in the closing stages of games we are winning is alarming. Today proves once again how reliant we are on Fletcher and how much we need a mobile striker who can be alert in and around the box. We managed to get further up the field when Rhodes and Nuhiu went off - neither of them can hold the ball up effectively, nor can they make runs that allow us to play in the opposition half.

Dylan93 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Woefull. We deserved NOTHING today. You can say we threw it away or blame the officials, but we was second best. They won first and second balls, pressed and Allen did a job on Bannan, thus stopping us. We scored two flukey goals and never tested Butland, unlike Dawson (my man of the match). Monk didn’t have a plan B sadly, but it’s one of those Boxing Day results and we need to move on. UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stripes or die Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Anybody who was surprised that we didn't turn up today needs to have a word with themselves. we have a history of falling for the egg under the hat in games such as this. The best thing that can happen to a team on a losing run is to play us! We are so obliging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor team selection. Would have been inclined to start with 5 in midfield as Nuhiu is turbo-shuffle and neither him or Rhodes can hold up high balls pinged at them at 1000mph. Hopefully Fletcher will be back and a few dropped after today’s debacle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
