Such as Baxter, who, along with others, avoids responsibility 90 per cent of the time.

Jose is one of the hardest working players in the side

And maybe we can get the ball to him a bit quicker, so that the opposition don't always have so many players back to stop him or intercept his cross.

Too often our wingers have to get away from the opposition wide midfielder, then beat the full back, then find teammates with their pass/cross. Even when they get to that point there are often two or three centre halves, and a holding midfielder, anticipating the cross, ready to attack the ball.

Premier sides haven't spent the full week focusing on getting men behind the ball and practising ways to stop our forwards, and therefore we can get a bit more space. We have to work just as hard as today to get that space against deep defending league one teams.

I think some tweaks would do a lot for our league form.

Bang on, though to repeat myself for the umpteenth time (sorry everyone, seriously ) we do much more of what we want in the second half, almost every week.

Cotterill was fucking awful.

Right on cue!

Hard working, definitely yes. But sadly in a similar way to me running my nads off on a treadmill.

really ?
Sorry to disagree, but if he was ,he would be a good player.

It's part of the reason I really like him. Talented footballer, runs his socks off and is a total team player.

I don't think he's always in his best position, if be tempted to slot him in doyles role occasionally as his distribution is excellent.

I actually agree. Players who take risks are usually the ones who create goals. Paul Ifill often looked dreadful but his assists/goals stats showed why he played every week.

My only criticism of JCR is no bugger can time their runs into the box or on the overlap because they've often got no clue what he's attempting to do.

After about half an hour today they were sticking three blokes on him when he took it out wide. He was pure class, MOTM for me.

MOM today mate. Save your vitriol for other occasions if you have to criticise one of our few players who could play in the Prem now.

Was only planning on a quick skim through this thread.... Sorry Sitters but this is bang on.

 

[shorehamview]

With respect that's a cheap shot, Higdon has hardly played with JCR so why do you say that?

With the greatest possible respect, it's because he's woefully unfit and couldn't out-jump a dead dog.

Matt Philips and Billy Clarke were awesome for us but I doubt Matt would drop to League 1 for a loan spell.

Matt Philis was the bad substitution against the pigs in the 2-2 draw. We needed Williamson still on the pitch because of his cool head and hold up play. We got a runner which resulted in us giving possession to them.
