Popular Post John Howard Posted November 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2021 Except for an outstanding save at the death we would have let a 3-0 lead slip to a very embarrassing 3-3 draw .... Everyone would then have posted vitriolic messages re. bottlers, typical Wednesday etc . Even with returning stars we still have not got things right and are only in a 'near play off position' due to the poor standard of the league . Moore still not the man ....sorry ...likeable guy 12 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mcmigo Posted November 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2021 OK lets ignore our long unbeaten run, our rapidly improving form, our massive increase in chance creation and improvement in all round play. Not to mention that rare thing our fans have been calling for for years , football that is more end to end and involves more goals (and risks). We should ignore all of that and go on your view. 22 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultan_Pepper Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 We got used to losing over the last few years, Moore seems to have made us used to drawing. If we can get in the habit of winning then that has a huge impact on performance and style of play and result. Confidence is a fickle thing. I'm more than happy to see a high tempo start and some attacking intent leading to a win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopparberg Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 It was an incredible save… the keeper is part of the defence… the keeper has made some howlers in the past… the keeper did the opposite and won us the game… that’s a positive. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 That shot from Pell wasn't going in btw It would have clipped the outside of the post Makes it an even better save Goals aside, apart from the first half I don't remember BPF having to make a save from a shot inside the box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the mighty wednesday Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 I thought it was the mandatory qualification for referees! It is better when we don't play out from the back, move the ball quicker and have Luongo fit. Windass coming back should be a big improvement too. I am just concerned that we might lapse back into our old ways of playing it out from the back and being too defensive when we get a lead. It is still worrying that we rarely score when we are on top, Saturday and Sunderland aside. We can't afford to be too optimistic but the last few games have been better. Unbelievably, Palmer and Johnson in their new roles as central attacking wing backs poses a real threat. Possibly at both ends of the pitch but it is good to watch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 I think it's fair that Moore's position is under scrutiny. An uptick in performances (although starting from a low bar) and a couple of wins is positive, but is anyone confident this can be maintained consistently? Only time will tell either way, but this week is a big week. Curiously, as injuries have occurred made team selection easier and performances improved. When we had an almost full squad, we were at our worst. I hope Moore succeeds, because I want us to succeed. I go into this important week with hope, but low confidence and still think ultimately it will need a managerial change to challenge for promotion. Delighted to be proved wrong though. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paterson should have had at least 2, bannan missed a sitter. Edited November 22, 2021 by wellbeaten-the-owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Moores fault we missed at least 3 sitters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people are easily pleased. I want us to win the league too but in a manner befitting the club. Goalkeepers making saves makes us look bad (IMO) and I think would work against us in the long run. If the Keeper has to make a save, can we really claim the 3 points? Yes, but we've degraded the club in doing so. 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanzaroteowl Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 We could easily have scored 3 more goals. Their goals were worldlies, one offs I was panicking with the best of them but it wasn't really that close over the 90 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
