[HarryHaslam]

Hamer is giving the ball away in the middle too often - both for the goal and for the latest chance

Chong has been getting plenty of mentions but Hamer been worse player on the pitch for me

Hopefully that’s me jinxing him into action

 

[Sheffsteel]

When things start to go wrong, we just look so rattled and the confidence seems to disappear.

Need to get a grip of things

Agree….weird match…..we look so good and so crap at the same time.

 

[BangorBlade]

Chong & hamer offering no support to Mccallum & seriki

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

McCallum should never have been allowing him to score there. Piss poor from someone usually good in the air

 

[espoo blade]

Not sure what McCallum was doing there.

He has a great leap so I thought it was weird that he was beaten in the air….assumed he might have been fouled.

The slow motion replay shows he (as usual) DOES gets some good height
But at the moment he’s about to head the ball…he crouches down crunching his neck….deliberately trying not to head it. Why?

Looks like he just mis-judged it.

He was trying to either let it skim off his head backwards or head it backwards rather than just making sure he got something on it

 

[Bobby b]

Mccallum tried to do a back header but he missed it and all he did was duck under it

 

[Champagneblade]

Not winning anywhere near enough second balls.

 

[Pintor75]

He'll bring Cannon on next

 

[harrry1990s]

‘We need to talk about Sydie Peck’

 

[toledo]

I’m so freeking tired of passing the ball back to the keeper ….

 

[drblade]

Burrows will sort it.

Can only think he felt the player behind him and tried to play for a foul….eventhough there was hardly any contact.

My thoughts exactly, was he trying to play for a free kick?

I’d actually forgotten he was on until he gave the ball away.

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

Burrows is going to get skinned everytime they get forward, wtf kind of change is that

 

[drblade]

Get Brooks and TC on

 

[FriethBlade]

Losing it in midfield. Blaster is tiring, Chong and Hamer are offering little and Jairo looks off it tonight.

 

[shrubbery]

More calamitous defending. There’s no way McCallum should be getting beaten in the air from that position. Really strange game and feels like earlier in the season where we couldnt stop conceding due to defensive howlers.

 

[BangorBlade]

Head scratching substitution

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Brooks upset wilder again?

 

[Tom Bott]

Come on Gus....

Too many toasties yesterday

New contract syndrome?

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Tide's turning against us. Need some impact subs.

 

[BouncinBlade]

On another note, Wrexham fans look dire

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Too many toasties yesterday

Should have weighed them like Man City. Scales would say "one at a time" when Gus got on of course.
