peteg999 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Thought we deserved something from the game.Palmer was outstanding for a first game but James Wilson looked frightened to death by their forwards especially Leon Clarke if we are to get anything from this season we definitely need a strong CB as soon as possible hopefully this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick_Valentine Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I can't fault the glass half full merchants on here, but am I the only one who thought that was wank today? Absolutely :censored: all in the final third again. I'd resigned myself to going down a few weeks ago, I think the club had better get their heads round it sharpish so it doesn't come as too much of a shock come May.

Not wank Dick, lots of huff and puff, we just don't have much if any quality in the key areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was better than your typical Dunn defeat. We genuinely deserved a draw. Think we played the better football - Bury were your stereotypical "well-organised" First division team. The ref was also a bell end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flytrap Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Much better football from us from the same useless bunch of players. A few signings and we might be able to start getting results, but not with clowns like J. Wilson and our two goalkeepers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hometownclub Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) On the plus side, I don't think Shez will have too much rebuilding in the summer, we've already got a League 2 squad.

Dick_Valentine Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Well it wasn't really any better than the Doncaster/Millwall games... I thought we looked better going forward vs Millwall, we wouldn't have scored against Bury if we were still playing now and they were on the bus home.

Didn't go to the Millwall game, but it was absolutely better than the Doncaster one. The Doncaster keeper didn't have to make a save!

Guest nonaenever Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The Millwall game was much better than today - our attacking prowess today was poor - against Millwall second half we looked dangerous for 30 mins and never deserved to lose - usual defensive frailties to blame there too.

bigfatjoe1 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I've just got in, so plenty of time to reflect on a piss poor journey home. Initially frustrated and resigned to another defeat from a crap squad. Now i feel that was actually much better than most home performances. We were the better side. We are crap in the two key areas. However, if Shez can find 3-4 big players, and rally the troops by building on the positives from today, then we might make a fist of it. At the moment, we are down, but there was a glimmer today. Also, well done Palmer. Nice to see someone make a simple pass without it being an effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hands on Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 We don't seem able to buy a win but WHAT WE NEED IS AN EXPERIENCED CENTRE HALF WHO CAN ORGANISE OUR DEFENCE and then we don't give everyone a goal start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disjointed Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 All about opinions but I thought the ref was one of the better ones I've seen this season I didn't think he was up to much, Bury were consistently fouling in both the 1st and 2nd half, a couple of bookings would have put a stop to this, but he hardly spoke to them, was it 1 booking all game? but the foul count must have been in the 30's.

yarddog73 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 He shoukd of sent their lad off for the 2 footed lunge on Kelly. Agree but overall the ref was fair, he let a lot go but then our players should be smart enough to recognise that and adjust their game accordingly, we do seem to get bullied by most teams in this division though.

Guest nonaenever Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 yes - physically very weak - even fellas that "look the part" (like Cassidy) can't win a header or put himself about a bit. It is like watching men against boys in this respect. A liitle worryingly, the BBC reporter put that to Shez after the game (i.e. Bury more physical does he see any option with signings on that front/) and he disagreed witht he point !! Come on John - sit up in the stand and get a proper view - we are bullied off it time after time - and have been all season - we need some re-inforced concrete in the side.

rteoafc Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Didn't think the ref was that bad. He booked the guy for the challenge on Kelly and I'm not so sure it was a clear red - Kelly jumped up to avoid it so maybe made it look worse. Actually thought the worst decision was to give a free kick for us when Winchester bounced off Leon Clarke. Summed up (one of the many things) what's wrong with our weak team but we got a free kick for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magister Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 All about opinions but I thought the ref was one of the better ones I've seen this season That's because the free kick count was about 19-5 in our favour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitey1980 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Really - The referee decent? He is there to officiate the game - not to be everybodys best mate. We are weak and entirely squashable - we were also fouled every time on the pitch we beat a Bury player in space (anywhere on the pitch!!) He set the tone when he didn't book the lad who hauled down Poleon as he beat him a yard outside the box on the left byline. How that is not a booking is beyond the rules and any reasonable explanation. The tackle on Kelly was red (as Eckersley's in a similar spot should have been a few weeks ago.) He missed a clear penalty when Clarke pushed with two hands on Dieng's (I think) chest when he was waiting to respond to a dropping ball with an open goal. He got the big decisions wrong and he also allowed clearly orchestrated tactical fouling to influence the flow of the game. He is not the only reason we lost the game, and I don't blame Bury for playing the game in the way he allowed them to, but he was poor - Very poor!!

Diego_Sideburns Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Matt Chambers @Matt_Chambers_ 6h6 hours ago Too many shrugs and appeals to the referee. Not enough appetite for the battle. #oafc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
