I had him on course for a 9 until he missed that straight forward header, so I’d give him a 7/8. I was sat in with Argyle fans who were all saying that he was brilliant but had little support. that's fair enough and your opinion. But he was part of a midfield that got ran over for 94 mins, conceded 3 goals and could have been about 6 on a different day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No footage of Paterson and Adedoyen rolling around on the ground together. No pictures of Corbeanu practicing keepie uppies. No Hutchinson talk of battering other teams in the media. Instead some footage of good honest training drills. Moore spoke of the hard work to be done, Let’s see a bit of that this coming week I sure that’s what the poster really meant. There’s a time and place for that stuff. It’s after a thumping win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They battered us from the first minute until the last. Don't want to single any players out but don't think any of the team would get more than a 3/10. You've got to earn the right to play football with hard work and stability. I'm not sure all these 3/4 changes a week are helping us, we looked like a team who had never played with each other before yesterday. We need to bounce back with a performance against Shrewsbury. No they didn't. Look at the stats for the game. I know a single statistic can be misleading but look at them in their entirety they can't all be wrong. Plymouth had a good day, we had a bad one, we lost. Get over it plenty more twists and turns to come. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the shot count was even for the whole game (14-13), at half time it was 9 shots to Plymouth, 2 to Wednesday and Plymouth's had included some really good chances. In the second half we had more attacks but that was mainly because they were comfortable in defence with men behind the ball and we were shooting from long range. It was only on about 85 minutes that we had 2 or 3 decent chances. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big pressure on them now. They've had a stinker and shafted a few thousand who made that trip yesterday. Good will can disappear pretty quickly. Perhaps less talk of winning the league and actually delivering on the pitch? Agreed...Saturday is a massive game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it doesnt It just needs our crybaby oversensitive drama queens to stop acting like babies If this club needs anything right now it is NOT to bend to the will of the fans who want to strip it of positivity, happiness and fun and return us back to the days of our players coming off social media, or looking unhappy all week only for the Mardy fans to attack them anyway The positive videos midweek bring a feel good factor The positive videos are NOT the reason we lost and aren’t anything to do with it 1 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hootsman Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I still have high hopes for this season. We'll continue to get better, and will get on a run soon, we've done it before and we will do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won’t get a good reception if there are more videos of players larking around at Middlewood Rd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel. Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 9 hours ago, northeastowl said: It’s the players who need to stop believing in their own hype. They're the ones coming out in interviews saying we are going to win the league and when we click we will batter teams. Unfortunately lads when you can’t be arsed to put the effort in and have the right mental attitude then you won’t achieve anything. I know they might argue it’s a one off but title winning teams don’t do that. They don’t go to mid table teams and get spanked 3-0 with little effort/fight. And in saying effort/fight i don’t mean the type like Hutchinson who gets a yellow but smashing someone 5 seconds after the whistle has gone because he’s lost his head. Agreed. When they talk like that it brings on the kind of reaction from opposing teams that we are seeing. Got to back it up rather than wipe egg off their face. To be fair I think we’ve looked solid most games at the back but that was the first time we looked like some of the swfc teams that have struggled at this level before. PTSD for all us fans. Had Bannan scored that header then it becomes a different game. But for a team that wants to play attacking football on the floor we don’t seem to connect well enough yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got away with a potentially really embarrassing score line yesterday, as if 3-0 wasn’t bad enough. I’m hoping it’s been the kick start with reality that the players need and expect us to go and set about Shrewsbury this weekend. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would recommend they keep their gobs shut and let their play do the talking. It's how they perform that counts, talk is cheap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
