As I said I didn’t see it but if we were playing well you’d hope we’d get a third and kill the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Jockstrap Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 We laughed at Utd in this pub league, and rightly so, however we are in it and it’s embarrassing for our club and supporters. While I think Moore should go, the players are a disgrace, Gregory aside, I would not pay them a penny for that spineless, pathetic and cowardly “performance”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also trust our defence against any attackers I’ve seen in L1 when not overrun. Keep them in their half, win it back, rest with the ball by simple passes and use our better players to do the right thing to win games 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never said we lacked effort, its the application that is concerning. Can you tell me what the plan was in taking our most energetic and combative midfielder off for a striker? Or allowing Brown, who the manager had previously mentioned tiredness issues with recently, to play the whole game when he was clearly struggling today?

We get a poxy point throw 2pts away again..and yet we move up to joint 6th..due to how poor this league is. With a decent manager we would be promoted by christmas. We still have chance of going up with a poor one. Agree this league is poor. Fleetwood in 19th place are only 2 wins from the playoffs. Says everything!!!

legendaryswan Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Two balls have broken in our box and our defenders have stood and admired the oppositions finishing, absolutely scandalous, why was noboddy even attempting to close them down?

Agree re Brown, but not many defensive options on the bench. Hindsight is great, can always pick holes in decisions. That said, not really my place to explain, I'm just a fan who watched a reasonably entertaining game. Plenty will keep picking at the performance and finding fault, not that fault doesn't exist, but trying to be positive based on many aspects of the performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good teams, promotion contending teams, don't blow a game from that position against that level of opposition with the form they have been in. Your view of FDB's performance differs from the majority, do you think he was more or less likely to get tackles in and get up and down the pitch than say Wing was against a side looking to get back into it in the last 20 minutes? It's not just hindsight to think that taking off your only box to box midfielder for a striker when winning an away game with 20 minutes left is a bit of a strange decision, in fact I posted my concern on this in this thread more or less as it happened.

WL_Owl_JC Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Moore should not be perplexed. We were 2-0 up and he failed to set the team up to see out the game. Bringing a hard working midfielder off for a striker is baffling. Not having any defensive midfielders on the bench is poor despite the fact 4 of the first teamers are injured, surely we have other options? We had strikers, wingers and a full back on the bench. Johnson should have replaced Brown. We needed to go to a 4-1-4-1 with 2 fast outlet wingers and 4 at the back. It was obvious from where I was sitting. Poor game management.
