League 1 team have had 53% possession at the moment.

 

[Gee]

Take Norwood off, drop mcgoldrick into a number 10, Brewster and Moose up front, stop the hoof and keep it down, through balls and first time balls in and we would destroy these......

 

[AdamSufc1997]

If we can't beat these with full side out...

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Take Norwood off, drop mcgoldrick into a number 10, Brewster and Moose up front, stop the hoof and keep it down, through balls and first time balls in and we would destroy these......

Good idea. Not gonna happen.

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Johnny Red wcfc is unlucky Worcester aren't playing us today.

 

[Lawrence]

Blades fans would have loved to be behind the net on that terrace

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Honestly believe Norwood will be in league one in two seasons time. He’s got one ball and he’s loosing his range with that

He will. With us.

 

[SUFCinks]

these ‘tactics’ are pony. What is this ‘possession’?

 

[Jon P]

Totally void of ideas in the final third

 

[Headshrinker]

The ref is a joke. He allows their goal but rule this one out?!

 

[FriethBlade]

Exactly the same sort of contact as for their goal but ours is disallowed

 

[essexblade73]

Bullshit, no foul there

 

[United Aren't Back.]

I miss romping league 1

Next chance.. 19 months, away .

The two bad decisions from a bad ref

 

[SUFCinks]

I actually think moose could bag goals with the right service

 

[HeySethUTB]

Fuck me, foul.....so just like the one on Basham when they scored then. Christ!

 

[TomHeffernan]

Fucking hell what up with you lot? This is a tricky game. It’s a good game and we’re playing well. Ffs

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Ref evens things up by making awful decisions at both end. Useless twat.

 

[Gee]

All these saying we will come straight back up if we go down need to take a good look at how we’re playing today and more so the system, the same system the manager says isn’t broken, some people need to give their heads a wobble as this system won’t get us back up and Chris ain’t changing it back anytime soon...

 

[originaltrueblade]

For clarify, which one of that starting line-up hasn’t been playing shit?

Brewster was playing shit with no effort at all that’s the difference

 

[Hollinsend]

The two bad decisions from a bad ref

It's Keith Stroud, he's got plenty of form with us

 

[HeySethUTB]

Anyone else notice that when we lump the ball forward to try and attack it always comes back. But when we play football we create chances. Interesting. Playing football could be a new tactic.

 

[Half Bond Jls]

Fucking hell what up with you lot? This is a tricky game. It’s a good game and we’re playing well. Ffs

True that. And I see the Ramsdale haters society is out in full force again

 

[Headshrinker]

Fucking hell what up with you lot? This is a tricky game. It’s a good game and we’re playing well. Ffs

Yeah, could easily have had a couple of more goals. Clearly the better team, as expected.

 

[Nah den]

Short fucking corners!!! Just put it in the box!

 

[Hockey'sBeard]

Easily better team. Chances etc - just can see final decision not always there but good game regardless

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Fucking hell what up with you lot? This is a tricky game. It’s a good game and we’re playing well. Ffs

Not sure if you're joking or not? We are not.playing well, better maybe, well not a chance.

 

[ATL Recs]

Exactly the same sort of contact as for their goal but ours is disallowed

Rubbish wasn’t the same as ours at all

 

[SUFCinks]

Fucking hell what up with you lot? This is a tricky game. It’s a good game and we’re playing well. Ffs

1-1 against league 1 team with more possession than us - not so sure!

edit: good for a neutral - its competitive but it shouldn't be

 

[Fulwood Blade]

Fucking hell what up with you lot? This is a tricky game. It’s a good game and we’re playing well. Ffs

indeed we ARE clearly the better team - but we still lack quality in the final third even against BR who are defending deep
