Opportunity lost

[CPB]

We've just played nearly 20 mins with 2 extra men.

We were all over the shop defensively but even so at this stage we have to take the chances.

Brewster scores and I'll give him some benefit here it's a good strike but an inch too far right. But he scores and we probably get another.
Equally Anels counts we get another as well. Should not have taken as long to get that goal.

Also ref added no more time really. What was it 40 seconds? The ball was out of play in our away end for 2 mins. This also doesn't account for other time wasting within the added time.

I may be staying the obvious (you get like that when you’re past your best)but we do look a bit Wussy nobody looks like they could fight their way out of a paper bag and that’s why we get bullied.

Weird thing to say considering constant criticism Baldock and McBurnie get are they’re too aggressive…

Absolutely atrocious at the back. We were very lucky it was only 3.

Not as lucky as them it was only 3!

 

[Antonb]

Only ourselves to blame today, playing mediocre but somehow 2 nil up. You could see them getting back in the game even at that point!

Dunno Wes might

In these past 4 matches now we've had physical opponents that have stifled us and roughed us up. We don't like it.
Well mcburnie might not mind it but it takes our game away. You know who we might miss a bit for these games.... Fleck.

Maybe performance was less bad against QPR which is possibly why it's arguably the the better of the 4 performances.

Absolutely atrocious at the back. We were very lucky it was only 3.

Problem was that the ball was coming through our midfield too easily.

Not at all mate. McBurnie sometimes acting like a bellend (and George in fairness) has got nowt to do with putting a challenge in. We've barely got anyone who can put a decent foot in, through midfield and at the back (Anel definitely can when fit, as can Bash but we know he and Egan are in shocking form). I bloody love Bash and he'll be back, but right now he's struggling.

They looked there for the taking, and we made it to easy for them to get back in the game,by turning over possession to easy, and giving free kicks away... Crazy game, but so frustrating, I'm just glad we managed to get the point, but the opportunity was more lost or made harder by a our first half display for me.. gifted a poor Blackpool away back in.

I assume you’ve missed the stats that has Norwood as the most successful tackles in the league this season?

No I was there, listening to the idiots saying Norwood is shit every week. It’s no surprise really, our fans love to turn on the players instantly. I feel at times it’s their biggest strength.

I'm glad you're superior mate but I haven't (and don't) fault Norwood. Quoting meaningless stats though don't effect owt- yes, Norwood nicks the ball and regains possession regularly (in much the same way as Duffy used to).

That's got nothing whatsoever to do though with us not having anyone who can put a ballwinning challenge in to impose himself and us on the game. We played some great stuff at times but were utterly lightweight without the ball, exposing the defence who were also poor.

Trying to argue against that pretty basic point by saying that McBurnie and Baldock are aggressive or quoting stats you're pissing in the wind pal.
