As did Beattie

More often than not though, he was pushed or kicked. Monty had nobody near him a few times :lol:

 

[Robbie]

This is more like it.

All talking shite about football.

Well you lot are!

Aye, it's been a while

 

[chrisyb99]

was it only me that thought the way to start the game in midfield was we keef on rite tongy n hendrie in centre n armstrong on left, we dont need a defensive midefielder startin wen ur against colchester! very disappointed that the back 2 struggled against a league 1 striker like platt n a 40 odd year old teddy!

So it was his new boots? Wouldn't new boots be more likely to keep him on his feet? lol.....

Wasn't that your Killa haha

Platt gave him problems all game, but Killa always managed to get ball away except for the last minute when Killa went walkies.
Most of the game it looked like Killa was wrestling with Platt

Ok ok, maybe not new boots that would make him do it, but they were the wrong ones anyway.

I'm still hyped up from the match, I blame that

The yellow soles certainly don't suit monty.

Let's have an s8 meet and get bolloxed

I would mate but I'm off out in town tonight. Maybe next weekend after Watford depending on what time I get back though.

u need to move away from the fact that killa is not the cause of all our problems!

no one has mentioned lucketti? looked reasonably solid, but also very quiet! think the back 4 need morgan!

Just the last one which threw away two points

 

[Tinoblade]

Don't know what peoples problem is with hendrie on the left

its where he played the majority of his games at stoke and did well there!



There new players in the squad thing aren't just going to click like that

i agree, but for a winger he comes inside way too much n leaves us playing very narrow with no width to attack down the flanks for 70% of the game

 

[Tinoblade]

For me sharp had a poor game

he seemed to keep turning into defenders

 

[Linz]

Vote for your MOTM... you have until Tuesday (our next fixture) to vote.

 

[The One]

i'd have to say geary, better Right winger than keef is even though he played right back (gillespie went passed his man once the whole game, and thats once more than what he normally does.

Beattie showed his class in flashes, he can only get better in my eyes.

 

[Robbie]

I've gone for Geary too......

Sorry bout how is Beattie leading the way so far? he played well granted but come on

 

[rotherhamblade]

geary...the lads a world beater on his day

 

[Jack & Helga]

Geary was solid throughout - he gets my vote.

Frustrating yesterday but we're gonna have to get used to it. We're many people's favourites and at Championship level we've pretty much got a star-studded squad so most teams will come and defend for a point. I hope our away form is a hell of a lot better than last year's...

 

[butchaboy]

gave my vote to tonge

changed the game when he came on, had a part in the first and scored the second and had another decent pop straight after, he and morgand have got to start against Watford, otherwise i dont want to think what will happen

 

[Gazza1984]

Gave my vote to geary.

 

[Robbie]

According to the Sun, it was Geary who crossed for Beattie to score

 

[Come from away]

I dont know what everybody else thinks but i think Fathi deserves at least a place on the bench possible even a start - he was delivering some quality balls against Forest last week and putting in some good challenges too

Based on who we started in midfield, I agree 100%!!!

 

[Linz]

Sorry... a busy weekend has meant I've only just had chance to put our match report and pictures up.

HERE

 

[Come from away]

Great report Linz, thanks.

 

[Robbie]

Looks like Del got MOTM by a country mile

Well done young sir.
