How can they come off a great victory away with all the passion showed after final whistle to a dour display like this.. I think the atmosphere has lots to do with it. After the passionate high playing away they come home to dour Hillsborough.. It's up to the fans to create an atmosphere but it's dire. So it's the fans' fault! Unbelievable.

matthefish2002 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Wouldn't blame players for losing todays game. Sending off and Dawson own goal probably meant a loss was a bit inevitable. But what I will heavily criticise the players for was the lacklustre performance. Body language was unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor first 10 but started getting into game, then the ref played his part which effectively killed the game there and then. With 10 men too we cant even take much from this. Move on and forget quickly. Its all becoming too regular, sick of the toothless performances, how can you quickly forget this trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick_Turpin Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 They often say 10 men are hard to play against. Only if the 10 men have pride and put a shift in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not me but it's a good job we beat Leeds and Brighton because some fans would be on Monks back now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We was getting into it and would have got something today had it not been for the red easily. Like I said, one of them days. You need your bumps feeling pal. We wouldn’t have got anything today if we’d played with 12 men, never mind 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Fukinel - that was one of the worst first half performances I’ve ever seen down at hillsborough. We were absolutely crap. Fair play to Blackburn, but we were truly dreadful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, and this isn’t hindsight (check my posts) I don’t believe we’ve had the attacking threat to take the game to the opposition Consequently, we struggle to consistently put sides under pressure during home games We’ve actually done well to achieve this amount of points, mainly down to our defence. Today was just one home game to far. Luckily we don’t have another home game before the end of the window All we need to do now, is Monk and the recruitment team, is get their @rses into gear and stop p#ss#ng about You so bloody obviously haven't watched Wednesday many times this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree, that was coming in my view, our full backs are appalling, the midfield has no bite, Bannan plays too deep, the wingers and pathetic and without Fletcher we have nothing up front...massive problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1st 20 minutes when we had 11 men and still couldn't get out of our own half? I try to be optimistic or at least not too critical of the team most of the time but this is just deluded. I hope we don't get beat 5-0 any time soon at home under Monk or any other manager but lessons are not being learned in other respects, like conceding late goals or being capable of getting a result when we concede first. We was getting into the game just before the goal, growing into it and the red card then stopped the momentum and swung the match the other way. Different game entirely 11v11.

HIGHERSTATE Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Yes we were awful before the 1st goal despite arguing we won't ever know if we could have got back into the game or not. All that I know is that we usually grow into games and every second half this season has been totally different from the 1st. With a few tweaks and a lucky goal the momentum could have easily swung our way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Move on and forget quickly. Total and utter rubbish - not “one of those days” at all - the club is a shambles run by amateurs with a number of players who do not deserve their status as professional athletes. It’s as simple as this, forget too 6, forget whinging about EFL and how unfair life is - take a good look at ourselves and acknowledge how far we are from anything remotely acceptable. WTID and all that but we are a bit of a joke right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
