Steve Simonsen

[Micalijo]

A complete and utter joke of a keeper. Useless, petrified of coming out and helping defenders.

In recent weeks PNE's first could easily have been avoided by him coming and out and claiming an overhit through ball. Instead we had to clear for a throw, leads to a corss and a goal. Similar for Harry's red - look how deep the chuff is.

Complete liability - very rarely saves anything of note. Decent save against Oldham but nowt special - nowt you wouldn't expect fromany pro keeper.

Drop this clown please Danny.

 

[Jehovah]

I'd like to drop you.

When iv seen him he's looked solid, esp against the constant air raids at Hillsbrough.

Drop him for the defence clearing a through ball that lead to a cross then a goal? You cant blame him for a sequence of events that leads to something.

That's like blaming World War 2 on Hitler's great grandparents.

 

[bartman]

Made an excellant save today at his near post when Egan cocked up. Had no chance with the the goals from what we could see from the away end un less the radio has said something different ? Goals down to Hill delaying on the ball for the 2nd goal and allowing a free header for the winner

 

[Northyorksblade]

Nice to here something from someone who was there, rather than an idiot who wasn't.

 

[bartman]

I can only assume that these anti-Simmo comments are down to Keith Edwards in the radio.

Poor first half today from both sides. Very tedious and slow

2nd half,Walsall realised our back 4 didn't know each other. They exploited Ertl's lack of pace and Egan's lack of experience.

We miss Collins but Lowton would have given us that bit extra today going forward.

Still in our hands. Feel we need at least 4 points from Brentford and Colchester thou

 

[Mousey]

As somebody who actually went tonight I have no idea how he can blame Simonsen for anything. The goals were all down to slack marking and not one of the goals was Simonsen's fault.

If any clown needs dropping, it's you.

 

[diplomat]

Just seen the goals and nothing to do with it being Simmo's fault. Slack marking on the first, hashed clearance on the second.

 

[metalblade]

Collectively we just ain't good enough.

 

[sitwell]

The one thing I would say is he doesn't give the defence confidence by staying on his line. Only evans can be pleased with tonights performance.

 

[bartman]

I thought Evans was poor tonight,Sitters. He appeared lethargic to me and his movement off the ball was poor. Might go against the grain with some on this forum but I felt Quinn was the one trying to drive us on tonight and was the best of a pretty average bunch

Thank you Sitwell.

Where did I say I blame him for the goals last night - I didn't go and even wouldn't be that daft. For those whio wer ethere and haven't seen TV I gathe rthe goals were at the other end so well done for havng brilliant vision which allows you to zoom in to the action. Well done.

I think he is a pathetic, weak keeper who has cost us loads of points this season and never helps us when under the cosh, never steps up as a big player when we have problems.

All season and last season he cost us time after time.

You went in the Walsall end behind the net then? Fair enough. You had a good view of it.

Am I the only one still scarcastically clapping when Simo makes a save? Must be, oh well.

 

[bartman]

Funny no one mentioned this when we won 11 out of 13. ? He didn't cost us in the games away at Carlisle,Wednesday,Walsall or at home against Oldham.

Maybe the brand new back 4 brought together last night with a few hours notice had something to do with the result? But I was on the away end so what do I know ?

Do you have some uncrontolable urge to be the biggest twat in the world ?

I woulnd't say Evans was poor-he was the best of a bad bunch IMO, as no one really stood out. He took is goal well-he's the only one in th esquad who can score goals like that, and didn't he assist Willo's goal?

I can't agree about Quinn either-he looked more interested in the game second half and to his credit made some probing runs which is what we needed but I think the wide men suffered from not having Lowton to work with on the right hand side.

It's interesting how we all interpret a match differently. For the topic of the thread, I can't think Simmo can be to blame-a guy on P&G ripped him apart last night but since his poor dip in form earlier this year he's been solid.

Where have you been throughout the season when he's been playng well.

Back under your rock Mic!

 

[Micalijo]

Playing well? You mean doing his job?

He's rubbish. You think otherwise, fair enough Swiss.

 

[cooperblade]

How about in your text of 10:11pm last night when you said "Fukin Simo again. Totally fukin useless bastard"?

Amazed to hear Evans described as lethargic. I thought he put an unbelievable shift in and did double the work of anyone else without much service.

 

[Micalijo]

Ladies and Gentlemen - the swearing has commenced.

What do you think about Simo Judgey? 10k a week, makes zero difference to our side in a positive way and imo weakens it compered with what I I would expect from a keeper.

 

[SwissBlade]

We've seen this year that he's a decent keeper. Not in the same category as Rees, Tracey, Kelly and Paddy, but decent, particularly at this level.

I can't comment on last night, but we all know that Simmo is a confidence keeper and seems to need a settled back four in front of him.

The fact is that the back five that played last night haven't even trained together let alone played together, so it was always going to be messy. Not sure why clubs always wait until the last minute before bringing in emergency loans, but thats what we had last night.

Can you also blame Simmo for being nervy last night?

Taylor - 2nd game in 14 months
Ertl - Played 1 game at centre half all season
Hill - Arrived at the club yesterday
Egan - Arrived at the club yesterday

I'm not looking to excuse any mistakes Simmo may have made, but to point the finger at him for last night is a bit much when he's had a decent season for a team that sits 2nd and has a decent defensive record.

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

Funny no one mentioned this when we won 11 out of 13.

Exactly. When we won 11 out of 13 the dissenting voices were nowhere to be seen on here.

A sure sign that such people have nothing constructive to add. Its all about stirring it up.

Give them the floor and let them go. Dont bite.

You're losing your grip Mic. You forgot to blame McCabe as well.

 

[raul]

Mic, might there be a reason why he's a GK in the third division and not the Premiership? Same with all our players, he is missing some of the attributes needed to be at the top of his chosen profession. I think by and large he's done well, in conjunction with his CH's, to work out some sort of system that suits all of them following his Orient hell.

They'll make mistakes, if they didn't, they'd all be playing further up the league ladder.

That's brillaint, hats off Mic!

Until now, fans have been split into those who went and saw the game and those who didn't go and therefore didn't see it. Now, we're going for a sub-category of those who were there, but were in the wrong part of the ground, Mic's own version of the wrong kind of leaves on the line.

I was in the wrong part of the ground, just along from Mousey as it happens, but for what it's worth, last night, Simmo was some way down the list of cuplrits, left very exposed by poor marking for the first goal, a hashed clearance for the second and even worse marking for the third. Even from 100 yards away, I feel confident that there wasn't much your new scapegoat could have done about any of the goals.

He did have one rush of blood which he got away with, when they knocked a ball over the top and he came racing out of his area and was completely in no man's land and their player hit it way over the top. It seemed out of character at the time and was symptomatic of our general panic. At least I think it was panic, I wasn't on the pitch and it's always hard to tell from behind the goal.

How very well put.

 

[super_pig]

err.. lads calm down.. what did everyone expect.. we had a completely new back four .. two of whom were roll ups on the day.. 3-2 is a fucking miracle.

 

[SwissBlade]

Trig, I have a feeling that I know who Mic went to the game with last night, but I'll protect his/ her identity as "Blade x"

I've seen the comments of "Blade x" on last nights game and he/ she has a different view, so I would assume that you can add another sub-sub category as "not in the same spot/ seat as Mic"

Are you fucking kidding me??

 

[super_pig]
