HarryBosch Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 All is well; BBC Manchester Sport@BBCMancSports 'There wasn't much missing other than goals' #OAFC's Dunn satisfied despite loss I was thinking about this, among other things other than the game itself, today and - Dunn's dived straight into this backing your players no matter what bollocks without having them earned such backing first.

HarryBosch Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 On another point - this "crap" team are 2nd in the league. They hadn't won in six. They don't concede many & don't score many. Everybody except Dunn knew we needed to have a good go in order to score with there being relatively less threat than usual of them scoring against us. We didn't.

Kusunga_Is_God Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Why is a players absence kept as something out of MI6. THANK YOU! I've been on about #secrecyklaxon for a while but we really outdo ourselves sometimes, i mean only 3 thousand of us care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 Mills came back from injury, played one reserve game & started the game ahead of several defensive options. Discuss... Mills was :censored:, I agree our best defender Dieng still finds himself benched week in week out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Harry, name your starting X1 (And I would hope that it includes Fuller) Edited October 31, 2015 by ChaddySmoker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaddySmoker Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Mills was :censored:, I agree our best defender Dieng still finds himself benched week in week out. Mills has the best left peg in the club, apart from the Burnley lad-who isnt ours anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddySmoker Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 (edited) So, come on Harry-Yes we were :censored:e today just like we were at Dale last week!

jsslatic Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Half the main floodlights aren't working, and the North stand lights were not on. Have I read somewhere that we're on a final warning from the League about this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddySmoker Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 By the way Harry. the Goalie is one of two options and we are assuming that you will play 2 upfront and 4 at the back, so go on please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmer1 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Mills was :censored:, I agree our best defender Dieng still finds himself benched week in week out. My source says that Dieng has fallen out with Dunn & he is traing with the ladies team. I can't talk about it though so shhhhhh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmer1 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Mills should play when fit, best full back at the club by far and besides Forte he is only natural left footer we have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobOAFC Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Have I read somewhere that we're on a final warning from the League about this? I think Corney mentioned something about waiting a bit until the ones on the North stand are up as these would be compliant rather than spending thousands on the current ones. Could be wrong though!

Dave_Og Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Why managers persist with negative away formations at home beats me, they should have the nous to know its a different game at home. Why is it? A pitch, goal at each end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceStationLatic Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Mentioned it before but 4-2-3-1 is only going to work if our full-backs are on fire and bomb up the pitch. Then a team defending deep is stretched, creating more space for our midfielders and crucially Winchester. If we don't have that, or just want to be more ambitious particularly given we don't have two strong wingers, you okay 4-3-1-2 with Winchester behind Higdon/Fuller and Poleon. The two midfielders either side of Kelly can either run with pace to 'break the lines' (Lee Johnson), like Croft and Winchester did in these positions against Liverpool, or they sit and we rely on the full-Backs for the width (2-3-3-2). I just think we looked at Burton's stats and saw they don't concede many but also don't score many. We bigged them up and got carried away with their league position. We played to be solid and edge ahead, and backed ourselves (particularly after looking solid on Sat) to hang on and, if anything, be more threatening on the break when they came out for an equaliser. But it went tits up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
