This could be like a rugby score

 

[Stevo]

WTF was that!!!!!

That was our typical keystone cops defending

 

[Geordie Blade]

Crikey. Where to start with that? Might be quicker to list who wasn’t at fault.

 

[Stevo]

This could be like a rugby score

9-9??

 

[breeny]

Why did Basham step up??

 

[BobblesBlade]

Wilder needs to learn from these teams.

Press in own half and over load pushing quickly forwards.
we are too slow and end up passing back too much

 

[Iceybabey]

What was Basham even doing?

Few of em didn't cover themselves in glory for that goal. Rammer n'all going down too early.

 

[BaldyBlade]

Bash is having a mare

 

[Geordie Blade]

Why did Basham step up??

I think he got confused about how offside works.

 

[GVBlade]

Flappy Hands went to ground a bit too easily

 

[SteveBlade]

I blame Ramsdale, can't be getting beat from a yard out like that.

 

[S12 blade]

by no means ramsdales fault, but he needs to find his ego. letting a striker do that in a 6 yard box is insulting, gave far too much respect

 

[YES Blade]

Norwood lucky to get away with that!

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Still, they had only one shot on goal in the first 15 mins. However....

 

[bakeblade]

Crikey. Where to start with that? Might be quicker to list who wasn’t at fault.

Jags would have stopped that

 

[BettingBlade]

by no means ramsdales fault, but he needs to find his ego. letting a striker do that in a 6 yard box is insulting, gave far too much respect

On the list of who was at fault for that goal, Ramsdale is very far down that list.

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

Just can’t get the ball off them. They’re by far the best team in the league.

 

[S12 blade]

On the list of who was at fault for that goal, Ramsdale is very far down that list.

agreed, just an observation that top goalkeepers biggest weapon is their ego. that is THEIR goal, THEIR 6 yard box. anyone in there is at their own risk

 

[JPSharpy93]

Hospital pass from Lundstram there

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

Just can’t get the ball off them. They’re by far the best team in the league.

We could all be the best side in the league with an owner with £23 billion in the bank.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Lunny been very poor up to now.

 

[SW12 to S12 to S18]

At least we got a foul throw and you don’t get many of those these days.

 

[blade79]

Hospital pass from Lundstram there

He’s having a bad game, slowing the pace on counter attacks and sloppy passing.

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

We could all be the best side in the league with an owner with £23 billion in the bank.

Maybe, maybe not. They have an identity to their game, I actually find it quite boring the way they play but they’re the only team for me in the league that have consistency with their identity to their play.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Get Lundstram off - he’s awful

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Is it me or is Bogle playing a blinder?

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

Maybe, maybe not. They have an identity to their game, I actually find it quite boring the way they play but they’re the only team for me in the league that have consistency with their identity to their play.

They are the best side no doubt. I find it boring playing them and Liverpool, we never get a touch.

 

[SteveBlade]

We are much less good at football than Man City

 

[A Storm of Blades]

Wide play fannying about again ffs.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Wide play fannying about again ffs.

Time wasting
