Steaming pile of excrement that.

 

Mills and Kenny aside the whole lot were :censored:.

 

Nobody willing to take the initiative. Too many passes out wide when we were better placed through the middle. Unacceptable.

The right flank was as weak as the left was strong. Maybe Kusunga to right back next week.

Was Ibhre fit? he was easily dominated by the Rovers centre backs. George looks overweight, is he 100% fit..you cant carry players like that.

Anybody see the sense in taking Daniel Johnson off once they scored ? Looked the only one capable of unlocking a stubborn backline today, dragging off B Wilson for Morgan Smith would of been the obvious call, cant say Im too fussed we have been riding our luck at home for a few week, too many changes today, they wanted it more and put in a performance for their manager we where pretty flat and toothless.

Same with Winchester, just what does Poleon offer?..looks like one of LJs few flop signings.

Fair play to them, they looked like they wanted it more. In our faces from the off, only Mills and Kelly emerge with much credit although Johnson worked his nuts off with little or no return. The diamond just didn't work today, we were way too narrow, if they were playing high tempo pressing we should have been dragging them wide.

I know Furman didn't get the final touch but nice to see he didn't celebrate, I must admit I don't get the hatred for him but perhaps that is just me.

Next week is vital we put this one behind us.

I missed wingers today, game only came alight when mills whipped one in after they scored.

 

All that fire power up front and we need two bloody wingers to get down the flanks and whip them in..aagghh

 

Oh well I'll settle for a promotion push then

 

And anyway they have to come in here in a few weeks time

If we had a Kieran Lee type of right back we'd have won that game. Brian Wilson is a steady defensive player and nothing more. The poorest Kelly has been for a while, and we missed the industry of Jones. Poleon can't be this shocking, surely.

 

Just a blip, but I'd be expecting more than that for twenty notes...

Our right side today was piss poor - wilson and winchester were garbage - overpassed going forward instead of first time balls when forte and jabo in the box and stood off when defending...really disappointed in the overall performance and hope it acts as a ' kick up the arse' -to win games you have to put in more effort than the opposition and today too many didnt .

much rather have a serious promotion push than a tie against a prem team. if we're gonna have an off day then glad it was today. lets get fired into yeovil next week and forget about the cup

 

The team we played today won't beat Yeovil, no service from wide right and no threat up front, right back now looking a problem position.

Video highlights below;

Poor defending from B Wilson initially in not getting close to his man. Kenny should probably have done better and cant really blame Kusunga for the own goal.

LJ is bemused (very critical of Winchester), well he needs to look at some of his players and make sure they get some crosses into the box to give the strikers a chance instead of fiddling about.

We've had similarly bad games against Gillingham and Crawley this season but played well in between.

 

Do we really need a big inquest after every average performance?

Elokobi's awful clearance led to the goal, my heart was in my mouth whenever he went near the ball today, looks out of shape.

Poor performance from B Wilson too,he had numerous chances to put the ball into the opposition box yet chose to pass back or hit the first man. Not many played well, very dissapointed after last week by Philliskirk's virtual disappearance in the second half.

Why is it our players seem to cry off on the day of the game?

Looks like the opposition are targetting him now as a weak link.Got away with it at Rochdale last week but not this match.

The right flank was as weak as the left was strong. Maybe Kusunga to right back next week.

The manager gave the team a day off this week, he ought to bring them in on Sunday after that. Had they still got hangovers after the Christmas party?

Were you happy with the performance?

You can bet the manager will.
