Turn a few of those home games into wins and be stronger in midfield and defence we'd be promotion contenders. 16 minutes ago, deyres42 said: Much rather we be tighter at the back and lose that 1-0. merry Christmas eyrsie never change.

PlayItLivo Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Fantastic win, and not unexpected. Home form needs addressing in the second half of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 One more thing before I log off for the family Zoom quiz What's utterly bizarre about this season is that we seem to be able to do the most difficult thing in football which is to go away from home to the teams at the top of the division and win and win well. Yet the stuff we can't do winning at home against dross, and all the off the pitch shit seems relatively easy in comparison to fix..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one stat sums us up this season, it's that we're top of the away form table, despite having conceded the joint most goals away from home! Keep up the entertainment lads!

We’re always in the game, and it’s so refreshing. I don’t even bother now when we go behind in first half. Know we have enough to score 2 or 3 a game quite easy.

mikeroyboy Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Great entertainment on here during lockdown. Shambolic in defence, hopeless in midfield and miss-kicks in front of goal. Only 1 team has scored more goals than us and only 5 teams have won more games than us. And somehow during the pandemic and zero attendances, wages and HMRC, seemingly, continue to be paid. Covid isolation is effecting our logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Corney was still the owner we’d be in admin now. No question. I do think any owner, not just ours, that keeps any club solvent through all of this deserves huge praise.

Ritchierich Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 1 hour ago, Ritchierich said: Pathetic that second goal, 3 defenders and none of them could be arsed to stand anywhere near the lone striker, if my pub team let in a goal like that we would be seriously bollocked by our team mates and our keeper How can these clowns be professional footballers? Pidge is enthusiastic but can't organise, Clarke is going to be a good player but needs someone decent alongside him and as for Borthwick-Jackson?! He only seems to be half arsed about everything he does, his only attribute as a defender is that he isn't Tom Hamer And as for midfield.... Yes, we should get one Such a shame that when we finally have a really decent strike force we've ended up with no defense and a bang average manager mmm, my half time post now looks a little embarrassing! Had just heard what was happening for Christmas down here so I am pleading not guilty on the grounds of temporary insanity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With respect, what the hell do the FSA know of our owners personal finances? I’d hazard a guess at zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, just maybe they have figured out where he/they were going wrong. The team spirit seems good too, I don't think it's as cliquey as it was in recent years, and our many away wins will very likely help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the squad, the cliques that were VERY obvious (perhaps even encouraged) under Shez and Wellens seem to have gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
