[DSB-91]

Fuck me, we’ve been shocking.

 

[HeySethUTB]

it’s the shitting ourselves and hoofing to a lone striker that is an issue, it’s the reason it just comes back at us

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

 

[Bugboyblade]

Bit late to change things now, 20 minutes ago the coaching staff should have changed formation or something because everyone could see this was heading one way… a hiding

I honestly don't think they know too.

 

[1987]

But also our midfield, bar McAtee, have created absolutely nothing.

I'd usually agree our midfield leaves them exposed and under it.

But they've been absolutely all over the place at the back. Positionally awful

 

[drblade]

This could end up being any score

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Bogle playing like he's pissed/hungover.

Fallen over twice with nobody even near him.

 

[toledo]

Men against boys to say the least.

I’m tying to be positive but I honestly don’t see where points are coming from this season.

 

[1987]

If we don't change something tactically it could be 8/9

 

[Rufus Smalls]

They have far too much pace through the middle

 

[HarryHaslam]

What is the formation? 5-2-2-1?

 

[Chris the Blade]

Next goal's crucial

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Robinson's proper tackles gimmick has had its day for me

 

[HackeyBlade]

Embarrassingly bad

 

[Not so Slim ane]

We're playing shit but the ref has 3 assists

 

[sheff_blade90]

its pretty crap. & embarrassing defending but the officials have been at fault as much as our defending
1-0 clear handball
2-0 offside leading to corner
3-0 robinson gets punished for winning a 50/50

 

[RobboBlade]

Suicidal tactics here can’t go man for man with these

 

[fifty shades of blade]

its pretty crap. & embarrassing defending but the officials have been at fault as much as our defending
1-0 clear handball
2-0 offside leading to corner
3-0 robinson gets punished for winning a 50/50

Not only offaide for 2nd it hit schar's hand then wes put it out for the corner

 

[drblade]

The gulf in class is massive. Then, you would expect that.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Robinson's proper tackles gimmick has had its day for me

Agree, it was a decent challenge but the dramatic follow through a la Sunday morning in Graves Park is instantly a free kick and a potential red now.

 

[SLB]

This could end up being any score

Whatever score Newcastle want it to be basically.

 

[Nagima]

its pretty crap. & embarrassing defending but the officials have been at fault as much as our defending
1-0 clear handball
2-0 offside leading to corner
3-0 robinson gets punished for winning a 50/50

The second was also a handball as he deflected the ball with his arm and wes had to tip it over.
What the fuck are the VAR team are doing.

Almiron was not booked for the tackle on Bogle.
Add then the diving at the slightest touch.

 

[Inter_blade83]

When the ref allowed that handball for the first, I knew it was the right decision to switch it off. Reading the comments here just confirms it.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

its pretty crap. & embarrassing defending but the officials have been at fault as much as our defending
1-0 clear handball
2-0 offside leading to corner
3-0 robinson gets punished for winning a 50/50

Robinson lost his head and was very lucky not to get sent off.

Robinson knew it as well with his reaction to the yellow.

 

[b1ade4life]

On a positive note, we have quite a good squad for next seasons championship

 

[Freddy Dunning-Kruger]

 

[blade too long]

After a decent 15 minutes we went all frankenstein and made some monstrous passing .not seen us give the ball away as much since Martin Peters was in charge.
Frightening display of inability to find a red and white shite

 

[drblade]

On a positive note, we have quite a good squad for next seasons championship

We would lose Souza. McAtee, Archer and Hamer.

 

[Swannyblade]

Seems like Baldock is quite important then - Gordon’s had Bogle and Anel’s pants down all first half

 

[71Blade]

On a positive note, we have quite a good squad for next seasons championship

No we don't as anyone half decent will either want to leave or will be sold..
