MATCH DAY THREAD: Barnsley v The Mighty Blades

[Yellarbellyblade]

Bollocks

 

[Guesty]

It pisses me right off. You always hear about how they're unstoppable, but why do we concede so many more than anyone else? Because, contrary to popular opinion on here, you CAN defend against shots from distance, it's just that we don't.

Ooh look another goal from a long range shot, albeit from the rebound.

 

[shrubbery]

This is fucking ridiculous. Barnsley not been in it this half and yet again we stand off a man on the edge of the box and it results in a goal. How hard is it to close people down for fucks sake!!!

 

[Bruce Wayne]

We will win this still, trust me.

 

[Cradleyblade]

Wtf another long range shot, do we ever learn?

 

[Grizzly blade]

Moore is notorious for palming shots back into danger areas in my opinion. The number we concede to score from 18yds plus must be well leaned against us.

 

[Cradleyblade]

Moored fault for stopping the shot but not pushing it wide or the defence for not closing down?

 

[Cradleyblade]

Moore's (bloody predictive text)

 

[shrubbery]

That’s two massive chances in the last few minutes that were harder to miss than score. Both right down the shitter.

Clarke should never be missing chances like that.

 

[Grizzly blade]

I haven’t seen it, but will be confident that a defender will have followed it in, and that Moore didn’t push it wide and away.

 

[Iceybabey]

Why didn't Sharp make that run ffs?

 

[Jon P]

Lundstram sees far too much of the ball in the final third. Couldn’t finish his dinner that lad.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Fucking wank.

 

[Lawrence]

We will win this still, trust me.

I give in!

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Oh dear .

3 chance and 3 goals

 

[SuperBobbyHatton]

This would be a crushing defeat after so much possession.

 

[shrubbery]

Absolute fucking disgrace. Again.

 

[Iceybabey]

What a load of bollox

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

That could be the season unless we get six from next two

 

[shrubbery]

With the type of finishing and defending that we have produced throughout this game we deserve nothing.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

That could be the season unless we get six from next two

It's done pal, let it go.

 

[Geordie Blade]

That could be the season unless we get six from next two

I’ll check the table at 5:00pm but I think you’re right.

 

[Iceybabey]

Today's game for me signals the end of our play-off hopes.

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

Good season. Lack of real quality up top has ended our hopes

 

[Lawrence]

why are we so bad at shooting

 

[Houston_Blade]

We can’t win a game so we’re not going to get in the play offs. Someone was spouting about winning every game a few weeks ago. We’ve won 0 games since.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

We're like arsenal. Fleck is 8 years out, free shot, passes to clark 6 yards out, tees it up for Billy (further out than Fleck), blazes over.

 

[Lawrence]

Good season. Lack of real quality up top has ended our hopes

Hoooo for the January window, the board bottled it!

 

[Cradleyblade]

Listening from afar it would seem to me that at present (for whatever reason) the squad is just not ready, capable or consistent enough, for a promotion push. Hope I'm wrong but I think, on that performance (compared to the Cardiff game) that has just finished off our play off hopes.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Good season. Lack of real quality up top has ended our hopes

We conceded 3 shockers today so the problem isn't just at the front end. Summer recruitment will be interesting, can't see Wilder settling for peanuts this time.
