[The Bear]

Two games McBurnie started & no goals. Useless.

He is utter shite. Another example of Wilders moneyspunkedaway fest.

 

[Headshrinker]

Good effort, but what a letdown. When is Jebbison supposed to get a chance, if not tonight?

 

[SuperBobbyHatton]

Most 1 sided 0-0 I have seen for ages. If we had more able strikers than just Billy we would be quite dangerous.

 

[Bobby b]

How the hell their keeper didn't get a booking I'll never know

 

[SUFCinks]

Entertaining game. Shame we couldn't nick a goal

 

[Wincobank S9 Blade]

They came for a draw and to try and nick it on break we played okay but sloppy in possession and couldn’t score in a brothel tonight.

 

[BobblesBlade]

Why ? Jebbison has no Championship experience and is not yet quite up to speed.
Give him a chance, but I think he will be used, if not tonight, then over the next few weeks.

There you go mate. McBurnie has prem and championship experience and what does he do.

 

[Iceybabey]

The lack of creativity from wing back has done us today

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Loads of chances created tonight but the finishing off has been awful. At least another clean sheet for Foderingham

 

[Stu_Blade]

22 shots 3 on target from us tell you all you need to know about that game. But at least QPR lost

 

[Jan Age]

Quite simply … not good enough

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

If you want top 6 you beat teams like Hull. We didn't. We're not a top 6 team
Sorry if that offends or negative. But ffs. How do we not score against this lot.

 

[Yogi]

Played well but Mcburnie is going to have to knock that rust off soon or others need to be given their shot as we need to be clinical also after training 1 on 1 drills for Ndiaye he doesn’t look confident at all when through on the keeper. If we’re expecting to be on top in games I think I’d sacrifice the solidity of Hourihane for the creative ability of Berge and play him alongside Norwood to give us an extra body on the overload. Save the hourihane/norwood combo for tighter games.

 

[Chingo]

All we lacked tonight was a break in the box , played well !

 

[BobblesBlade]

According to the Gaffer, McBurnie has been training really well. He's been putting the work in and is trying to force himself into the team.... On Saturday, he was throwing up before the kick off and was given the chance to miss the game. He wanted to play.....and to be fair, he ran around and the effort wasn't amiss.

Give him a break...... And what about when Jebbison starts and doesn't I standby bag a hat trick? Will he be shit as well?....

I’d rather give Jebbison match experience and give him time than have McBurnie. Sorry but we need a GOALSCORER

 

[bladesmanluke]

I guess people see different games.

I thought we were absolutely garbage

 

[jono_t2000]

Hull are a dirty fucking team.

Mind you.. the ref let them get away with it all game so fair play to them I guess

 

[Blad]

Two games McBurnie started & no goals. Useless.

I keep saying it but he is going to cost us promotion. He offers literally nothing, he can collect a 5 yard ball 30 yards out under no pressure and pass it back and his fan boys think he’s played well…… But where we need him in the final third, creating goals, scoring goals etc etc he is shocking! It’s like playing with 10 men, he brings nothing to the team in the final third, in fact he totally hampers us. Hecky has chosen McBurnie as his hill to die on? Fair enough he won’t get many fans backing him if he fucks this up because the play offs are within our grasp but we will fall away if he insists on playing that lump up front.

 

[Blad]

It really is pathetic we are not giving him a chance

 

[Espania blade]

The problem tonight was simply McBurnie, he is not a striker, not in any sense, nothing to do with confidence, just not a striker

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Yes we do

We won’t make the play offs we aren’t good enough.

Everything worse I agree with.

He’s a CB

Can't add anything to that it says it all

He is not a footballer. End of.

Not even sure he's a footballer

I agree mate… others don’t want to see it… all the hard work against West Brom undone by two piss poor results

 

[Overthehills]

Waited til the full time whistle to try and add some weight to it??

Slating a player before a ball is ever kicked... to be fair, McBurnie probably edged golden boy Gibbs-White..... should we send him back???

Too many fans with heads up arses at the minute.... forgetting who and where we are.

When Jebbison is ready, no doubt he will be thrown in. But you know naff all about what happens invetween games..... who looks sharpest and who is working hard....who is fittest.

Your opinion is based on a young lad getting some goals in league one. He's been out of the loop for months!

When he's ready, works hard and hungry enough.....then he will get his nod won't he.

As for your little dick man angry capitals.... we have one, he's called Billy Sharp.... but unfortunately we need to look after him and keep him prime.

Thank fuck is don't sit next to you at the lane..... fucking jobsworth.

McBurnie.

Agreed, all of the ball and did fuck all with it. Terrified to put an early ball in the box so we just fanny about with and put in a shite ball once the opposition defence has got back into position and reorganised. Play every ball out from the back from goal kicks, a few pointless passes around the back 4 and a long hoofing ball forward, may as well just let the keeper hoof it and save the 30 seconds of pointless passing. And the less said about Norwood the better. Absolutely shit, stands on the halfway line and plays simple 5 yard passes out wide, his famous ping fails more than it works and his corners are laughable.
