4evaowl Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 First half OK. Passed and moved well. Kept the ball and didn’t give away silly fouls. Played to a plan. Second half worked hard but none of first half positives on show. Overall fairly grim as a match and we don’t really look a threat. Felt sorry for Rhodes as he was so isolated, yet still looks our best bet up front. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably fair result. We are weak as p*ss up front though ... it doesn't matter who plays there as we don't have a decent striker at the club. We would be a threat with 2 beasts up top. You mean like Atty and Joao? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvin Parsnip Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Much better - actually enjoyed watching the game we scored we closed down well we had a new corner routine we didn’t concede late on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

full fathom five Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Nice to see us play like we actually had a game plan plus some effort and commitment to the cause. Played some decent stuff first half, good goal. Players are obviously on board with what Pulis is wanting them to do which is a good sign. Baby steps but if we can get players like Iorfa, Flint, Windass and Brown back and add a striker we will look something like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Imagine if we had a player like Ayew to bring on instead of Kachunga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Our future is bright, our future is Pulis. Got us organised, knows what he’s doing. We have safe hands. Wasn’t my choice for manager but two games in and I’m seeing green shoots of hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smhouston Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Thought we played well. Actually played some lovely composed football in the first half. Hopefully more to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayew had both sides of the goal to aim for JVA gave him his strong foot side...Wildsmith not to blame at all from 8 yards out ffs The real problem started as we stood off every challenge on the LHS and let them play through us. We were too deep all 2nd half. It was a great point away from home to 4th in the table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halifax Owls Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Decent point. I’d be interested to know why Van Aken flounced to his team mates after their goal. Looked as if he was wearing divers boots. Nice bit of typical Wednesday drama at the end as well. You’d think TP will be putting a zoom call in to his boss asking for a couple of strikers after the socialist bubble winter festival. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ta x The bloke is thirty years old but still looks like he could run through concrete walls all day! Its actually frightening when you see a proper player in this league. No wonder Van Aken browned his trousers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Hunt Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Any one who think that was a poor performance cannot have watched us much recently Some great performances tonight and nice to see a manager that can make the right calls on subs and positional changes in the heat of the game 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southie_Owl Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Let’s face it we win that game if they don’t have a PL standard international striker to bring on. Brighton wanted Ayew but were put off by the asking price We played well and just need to find some decent freebies to help get us goals between now and January 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marconi Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 The Pulis influence for me was when Odabajo bombed forward, only for Pulis to yell at him to get back. Discipline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately we’re not expecting great yet are we, as Pulis isn’t a miracle worker. The fact we’ve improved is a good start 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
