Once again

[The Vicar]

We concede from a shot outside/on the edge of the box. It’s not rocket science, nor do you have to be a good footballer, just watch the 18 yard line and get a block in.
Garbage once again against a team that had scored 5 goals away all season, in bottom 3, and they were the better side. CW will keep us up, but that is about it. Shocking team selection, and woeful tactics.
But for the dismissal we would have lost. He has lost his way.

We're not a bad team.

That's because we're not a team, we don't have a team.

It's just a collection of players who go out onto the pitch every week and try to make something up as they go along to try and score a goal.

It's the same shit over and over and over again.

 

[ben1987]

We’re conceding goals from outside the area because we are so slow and ridiculously un athletic we cannot pressure the shooter.

The goals against Stoke and Portsmouth were not flukes or bad luck they’re just examples of giving a paid professional time to do something that they’ve trained their whole life for.

Same old crap every game. We're ok against 10 men. The owners have to be brave and move the manager on again. And before anyone says who do we bring in to replace him, we'll I would say give Micky Collins and Phil Jones a try until the end of the season and see how it goes and appoint a football minded person to address football matters on the business side and let the coaches get on with matters on the pitch.

Get him gone.

Exactly.

What are our patterns of play or tactics?

Today it was play a few passes around the back, lumping it forwards either on the diagonal or down the line and hope for the best.

Until the red card and Donovan sub we barely strung 3 passes together between midfield and attack.

We’ve lacked it for ages but we now don’t have Brooks, Hamer and O’Hare to make something happen we’re stuck watching BBD tow a caravan round while looking for a freekick eveytime the ball goes near him because he’s so totally and utterly washed up.

What are our patterns of play or tactics?

We don't have any.

Nothing, zilch, nada.

People were even saying this two seasons ago when we finished 3rd.

It was easy to turn a blind eye to it when we were winning nearly every week but the chickens have well and truly come home to roost now.

This be from the highlights two seconds before they scored. Tell me who should have been marking their goal scorer and/or who had the reaction time to get a block in.

1 of the 2 guys in the bottom left corner who were in front of the goalscorer, but clearly had no idea he was there!
HE'S BEHIND YOU

The number of visible empty red seats says it all.

 

[jt64]

No. But I do have this thing called YouTube, where I can scroll back two seconds from when the shot was struck, and take a screenshot of the game state at that point

 

[Snowflake]

If you were there does 2 seconds seem longer ?

 

[Flumps]

Am I missing something here? Are we blaming anyone for the goal we conceded?

That goal that came from a rebound off the post that fell to their player with literally an open net? You could look for blame as to why they were allowed that shot that hit the post in the first place but at this point are we suggesting we shouldn't be allowed to concede shots on target now?
