[fifty shades of blade]

Ref gets a free disney plus sub

 

[WestYorksBlade]

The Chris Wilder fan club is awfully quiet today

 

[Barnette]

Im not blaming the ref for our own dismal performance

 

[Northernsoulblade]

This team is as weak as piss with the collective back bone of a worm.

Can’t argue with that spot on Shrubbery

 

[XADE]

Tame, no fight, no footballing brain from any of them. Just going through the motions.

The amount of times we try to buy fouls or foul someone else is staggering.

It doesn't even matter, but at least give the crowd something.

 

[calcalcal]

Not able to watch it today.

Has the ref given them everything?

Any controversial decisions?

No. Just shit.
Dominated them first half should have been 2 up
Usual bottling it when we lead
Wilders tactics atrocious today
Hjelde ideal but not used
Very frustrating.

 

[Jan Age]

Get ready for wilders usual blah blah .. “we went toe to toe with one of the best in the division … there’s a reason they are 6th… blame brooks or seriki (even though he wasn’t playing)

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Let's guess "its about important moments in both boxes".

No its about a bang average team with pathetic mentality and character

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Im not blaming the ref for our own dismal performance

No but he was absolutely shocking, not least for no pen for brooks when dobson cleans him out after his shot

 

[Steve.C]

We are so soft at the back and give away stupid goals every single week.

That's all really. Going forward we're fine - we're better than most teams in that department. But weak as piss at the back.

We can’t finish! We get to18 yard box and we haven’t got a fucking clue! Totally agree with defending Tanganga is shit!

 

[Blade In Flame]

Wow, ref is a fcking quim

Diversity hire

 

[CoatesyBlade]

Referee was abysmal… but can somebody take fucking charge please!! This team has no leaders on or off the pitch!
And… Hamer was shite again!
As if we’ve just lost (again) to that shower!!

 

[toledo]

We didn't lose because of the ref!

I've been reluctant to criticize invidual players, preferring to concentrate my criticism to tactics and preparation.

As I said earlier, the issue through out the season has been second half tacticts. I seriously don't get how we consitently prepare ourselves for awful second half performances. There is sonething radically wrong with our game preparation, game tactics, and individual controbutions in almost every second half of every game.

To add to the mess today, our subsitutations were awful and contributed to our complete inability to play the game after we scored. Both Wrexham goals were awful to give up.

For the first time this season, I will say its time to clean house... the problem is we need to get loads of money to make us better unless we take a step back and concentrate on buulding a youth based team over the next two or three seasons.

I have no idea what our game plan structure is at the moment.

[Wetwang blade]

Our defence is nieve, they don't know how to deal with the more energetic masters of the dark arts. They stand and watch thinking one of our team will sort it for them. The midfield is too handy at turning back or pass along the back. The forwards today are doing too many flicks and twists and not putting their foot through the ball. Should have won but... not good enough, not rugged enough and not getting help from officials. UTB as always.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

So so pathetic

Soft, spineless set of bastards with no professional pride

If they had any they wouldn't have let fucking Wrexham double them after that game at their place

Opponents have to do so little to score

Tanganga is fucking useless

We must be the worst team in the country at chasing a goal late in a game, especially at home. It's always a feeble, pitiful surrender, every single time

We're now ending the season on a downer, it'll be very sour and the fans will want Wilder out

 

[Bill puntin]

Let's guess "its about important moments in both boxes".

No its about a bang average team with pathetic mentality and character

He will say we need to be consistant but we are very consistent EVERY time we score we gonto peices

A lot of us already do pal. Otherwise spot on.

 

[Satan's Toilet Blade]

Just leaving the ground now. Their second goal was coming from the minute they equalised. It was attack v defense where the attack are instructed to score the most elaborate goal possible. Trying to score intricate one touch beauties instead of just having a fucking shot. We were a one man team today, Brooks was immense. Hoever was actually doing ok so WHY THE FUCK replace him with Ogbene who's never been a defender? It's not as if we didn't have a decent defender on the bench.

Bamford was AWFUL. Peck was AWFUL. Arblaster should be put out on loan, dismal performance as sub. The substitutions today were a disgrace.

 

[Shadota]

Very tired of seeing these shameful performances. No desire to play the game after a certain point, normally when we're a goal up.

We need a complete overhaul of everything that's oriented toward our performances on the pitch. But we all know these owners haven't got the mettle, or the money, to stick their necks out that far.

Players aren't motivated to play. Manager is tactically inept, and incapable of adapting mid-match to changes in momentum - every sub is just a straight swap.

Recruitment has been piss poor. We went all out for Tanganga, and he (predictably imo) has been utterly average. We've spent 2 seasons throwing shit at the walls, and none of it has stuck.

Comically, Jairo and Bamford have been 2 of our best performers this season, but signing out-of contract 30+ year-olds isn't a viable recruitment strategy.

This season, as if it wasn't already, is a total write-off now. And if things don't change significantly in the summer, I expect next season will be too.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

I honestly don't get how we can consistently give up goals in the second half in almost every game.

There is something wrong but I have no clue as to what...

toledo

I'll give you a clue their initials are CW.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Yes we created chances that should have been scored but the overall pace of the game was so fkin slow....again. Every no and again there is some nice, quick passing but it just stops with a poor couple of yard miss pass or someone not running into space. I think it used to called team work.
The overall starts Monday. Those that Wilder doesn't want next season, drop em for good. Don't start them ever again. Who that is, I don't know, CW does. Rebuild begins...asap if not sooner. And for Christ sake sign players as soon as the window opens, latest buy first day of training next season. DONE WITH THE EXCUSES

 

[Broomhall Blade]

At least we have a lot of time to plan for next season. Needs a big overhaul but not like the one last summer.

And hopefully not with Wilder in charge.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Best performance in a while for majority of the game. Has that fluid attacking thing going on that's been missing. Didn't take our chances. The effort by Brooks that he scuffed summed up how we would play well create a chance and not take it.

The "marking" for the winner was so bizarre. Happens in so many games not just ours. How do defenders give attackers that much space

Well the scrufbag has got a suit and tie on today.
Get him in the boardroom
GET HIM OUT
NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The brain dead will have watched the first half and thought we should be winning.
Those who know logic and football like me spent most of the first half screening at the TV/laptop about the same old total imbecility of everything in this team
WRONG FORMATION
WRONG TACTICS
WRONG PLAYER POSITIONS
WRONG PLAYERS
WRONG SUBSTITUTIONS
If you cannot see that even with all those abortions of a team manager
simply playing with width and crosses with TOP PLAYERS Brooks on the left and Hamer on the right we are winning against the endless shit teams in this worst ever division
then there is no help for you.
For the brain dead out there
Ask yourself if a GOOD manager can possibly take over a Prem team and at the end of three seasons of transfer budget of such
can lose BOTH TIMES against a mediocre team who were in the fourth division when he took over?
HOW is he anything other than a total failure?
A DISASTER

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Stamina or rather lack of it is our problem. We can't play 90 minutes of football. The players come out each second half like they're wearing concrete wellies.

 

[Stevo71]

The Chris Wilder fan club is awfully quiet today

What can he do when half his squad were gone and replaced with shite when he returned? He needs a rebuild of players he wants.

 

[SB_90]

our defensive organisation hasnt improved that much since August. i know people praised bindon but i cant when he's major part with tanganga where we are so wide open defensively

i wouldnt mind if either left in the summer

so frustrating because until wrexham scored it was up there as 1 of the best home performances of the season

 

[ChongWithWaves]

No doubt that the footage of Doyle’s punch on Hamer will be lost. Reverse the roles and the FA would be flying drones over his house looking for excuses to ban him

 

[Nick Jansky]

Sums up our season, that. Thank god for the academy, our saving grace, the only part of the club at the moment which isn’t, at best, very average.

 

[harrry1990s]

And hopefully not with Wilder in charge.

I’m in the not sure group on Wilder. Is that allowed?
