Taximark Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Just continue to leak late goals, it's got to me a mental problem now, couldnt even hold on to a draw having conceded in injury time. The defending for the 3rd embarrassing. ..school boy stuff. We have a very good platform but we are in desperate need of players all over for me . Another 2 goals conceded in injury time to throw another 3 points away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Kidneys Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Lost count of how many times we've conceded late this season. However, the performance deserved nothing and a message to GM ... Keep starting this front 2 and look forward to mid table. They are as mobile as bedroom furniture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodgybysea Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 To be fair if it wasn't for Cam it could have been six,ref should have given a pen and lets be honest we got what we deserved in the end.Anyway.we are still up there and now have to start another unbeaten run.Not many could come out of that performance and think they played well.

Beauchief Owl Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Didn't see the game but is it a case of dropping too far back when trying to preserve a lead? Also think lack of training yesterday now open to question given the poor performance of so many players by all accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animis Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 It's happened too many times. Whilst we look resilient and able to grind out results, these injury time lapses show our soft nature. Any good team would see these last few minutes out but we just lose all composure and panic at the back. It's now become our trade mark which other teams will exploit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taximark Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 Think we have now lost something like 14 points form conceding very late in games so far...thats simply astonishing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 We've thrown away so many points this season. It really is beyond a joke. A lack of professionalism and game management from the players. Not good enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sMacLean Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Players don't have the right mentality to manage games, it's sheer panic. Monk is to blame to a point but the amount of soft fouls and needless corners we gave away to a big side was crazy. End of the day we are a mid-table side that can sometimes engage top 6 mode for a bit. These aren't Monk's players either we can't forget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beswetherick Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Just so bloody frustrating, especially when we’ve gone ahead after playing shíte for an hour. I doubt they’ll be getting Xmas day off next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was like the Alamo last 15 minutes, barely left our penalty area, corners, free-kicks we gave them every chance we could.

Birley Owl 1867 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 We can't defend high, lumped balls into our area. Unfortunately, that is all Stoke had in their arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modboy Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Don't know why we don't leave someone up top when under pressure 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Thing is...you can see it come from a mile off. We manage games so badly. Drop off deep, give away stupid freekicks, corners and so on. The pressure build ups and up, but so much of it is our own doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 As evidence of our total lack of ambition in this game, I’d love to know how many of the 97 minutes were played in our half. We went for a point against the bottom club, giving them a boost, and that performance got everything it deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This! You’d think someone have a word with Bannan and say stop giving away Soft free kicks, it’s not like he has to defend them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t recall there forwards being that big but gave Lees and Iorfa a terrible time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iorfa was bullied for that entire game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We better remember how to deal with long balls and set pieces before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taximark Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 Clear we need players coming in that; A, doesnt keep giving cheap fouls away in dangerous areas. B, Doesn't Panic when the clock goes past 87 mins C, Trys to engage their brain a bit and work out that giving away set pieces to teams with big players just might not be a good idea. D, Fuckoff lot of you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
