How many games have you been to? because I've missed only Hartlepool away this season (rarity) and I still can't call which United side is going to turn up on the day despite the sample size.
That's why I'm reluctant to predict, I simply don't know. I'm not particularly interested in a "told you so" at the end of the season.
I'm not entirely sure where you pull the apparent suggestion from. In terms of moving forward from today, Doyle needs a kick up the arse and to remember what his mouth is for. KMac needs to know the place isn't just his regardless.
I'd put Westlake back in, but tell him he needs to concentrate on his positioning when not in possession. I'd be tempted to swap Hill for Williams again, because whilst Hill hasn't done much wrong, Williams has been getting forward more successfully of late.
I think we should be able to mount a challenge, given that we've lost only two and are still gaining complements from opposition, there's nothing to suggest we are incapable of that.
Brentford weren't shit, Crewe weren't shit, we're going to have difficult games.
Agree with most of that except I would drop Collins and play Hill at centre half. Seems to play better in that position and is a little quicker .
I thought we were OK in the 2nd half...two cleared off the line,clear penalty should rejected,3 very good saves by their keeper.They couldn't cope with Blackman goin forward in the 2nd half.On another day we would have pulled that back...1st half deffo not good enough as they kept exploiting the gap behind Blackman(where their 2 goals came from).
I also thought Long was suspect for both goals....I've not seen them again on TV but from behind the net it looked like he was on his heels for the first goals when he could have come and smothered the cross thast wasn't driven hard,and the 2nd,he was positioned ok,clear view and he seemed to be surprised by the shot....it didn't go in the corner and fans round us thought he was slow.
Can't believe the reaction of some fans.....we play cautiously,win one-nil and they moan,play more expansively and start to concede,they moan. Personally,away from home,I feel we should be more cautious (e.. Preston away where we were excellant),frustrate the home side and play on the break
