Round pegs in round holes, who would have thought it?Having Spence as right back and Udoggie on the left changed the game in our favor.
Thats probably fair but it does show the weakness in the squad that we don't have really viable alternatives when neither were available and even Odobert is only just starting to make an impact.Both are coming back from injury / long term injury.
Rather we are cautious with them.
As we discovered on Wednesday, we’re better off without the ghostly presence of Johnson on the pitch!That's fudging criminal! How can we not mark him? We're one player more on the pitch ffs!
Doubt it. Knowing us we will probably extend their contractsTimes up for them surely
Corners are a coin toss, I’m more frustrated we gave the corner away versus 10. There was lots of hoofing after we scored, little controlled possession. They had nothing to lose so piled forward.
Overall though, almost a very good vindication of Frank’s system. We limited them, we got goals with quality, and I think we were in the ascendancy when we went ahead. It felt like the team had figured something out. Like the drilled pass at pace into the forward line, not some plodding slow thing, it felt like we were drilling it, it was sticking, and that’s what we need in this system to turn the other team.
Shout out Tel and Odobert. Tel with a real moment of quality in a tight area. Odobert was a real threat and is playing with confidence.
We simply have to upgrade on Johnson and Richy as soon as possible.
Its been up, yet they are both still here.Times up for them surely
We could play for days without scoring with this front line.
Sesko will make it 2-0 in the 88 min.
Its been up, yet they are both still here.
Its funny because by his standard Johnson had a decent game yet was still crap. Richy was just crap no caveats.
Watching Johnson try to control a pass not directly to his feet is quite a thing.
Frank was also correct.I was taking a tinkle when we subbed Simons off - and saw just now that our fans were booing. Surely for Frank making that sub, but how should Simons know that?! I get so frustrated with the bloody booing. Stop it. Just fudging stop.
Some of the coaches are off to international duty now2 weeks off now for the brains trust (Thomas Frank, Matt Wells and Justin Cochrane) to think about why we look better with a left footer on the left, and to ponder whether Richie and Johnson contribute to the actual match.
No surprise we look better with actual footballers.
Shambolic to lose a goal in the last 10 seconds, but not at all unexpected.
We played the last few minutes so poorly, absolutely no brains. We should have had a series of hamstrings and cramps and falling over and slow set pieces and wound down the clock.
Instead we go back to Vic and he slams it up the pitch, leading to their corner.
