We are far from down and out we just need to start another unbeaten run against Lincoln.? "2 defections"? Sibley, allowing the cross. Who else? ?

Our 'singing' section was noticeable by its absence this afternoon. Shame; we need to make more noise when we're losing - that's when we're needed most! Thankfully, we're nearly home so at least the motorway hasn't conspired againt us this evening. Small consolation. Didn’t see you at all today, yes it was hard to take being there, I got into several arguments on the way back to the car, and told anyone that would listen what we thought of their owner. Thankfully it didn’t go any further than that cos frankly I’m too old for fighting, even on a Saturday night.

TomTom92 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Totally bullied today and I think Warne got it wrong. We scored against the run of play and then made no changes. I can only imagine he didn’t trust White, Sibley and Springett with their physicality so bottled putting them on. Not here to moan and everything can be put right on Tuesday. But Plymouth winning does mean that talk of top 2 should be put on ice. RoyMac5, lrm14 and jimtastic56 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we were totally bullied, but there was enough gamesmanship that we didn't deal well with. And yes oddly we scored at the wrong time, changes were needed. Edit: and after we scored I think Warne thought he'd give the same players time to put things right. Well tbh I thought we set up wrong firstly...

Thankfully, we're nearly home so at least the motorway hasn't conspired againt us this evening. Small consolation. Agree with all of this. The Ainsworth moment, far outside his technical area when doing it, was just one of many instances when the ref was shown to be miles out of his depth. IIRC we didn't even get a freekick until the 26th minute when someone went horribly through the back of Hourihane. And then there was the moment Collins was intentionally fouled on the left while attempting to get away to launch a quick break, after which the Wycombe player stood over the ball deliberately trying to stop the momentum further by preventing the freekick being taken. Collins, standing where he was fouled, kicked the ball at the Wycombe player in frustration. Instead of the automatic booking for said Wycombe player which it should have been, the ref admonishes Collins and makes him move the ball back five yards behind where the foul occured as his excuse for not getting his card out. I was livid! And they are a horrible, horrible club indeed. It sticks in the craw to have lost there, but we will bounce back. And at least I've lost my voice from singing and shouting too much!

FKANorwichExile Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I've never known an entire club and fanbase to simultaneously have such a bad case of Little Man Syndrome. Wasting time from 10 minutes in at home when you're fighting for promotion is laughable. Game management my ample behind. Regardless, they deserved the win and outplayed us tactically. Their little playmaker was superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked like you were saying we are no longer in the top six. I now realise you meant we are top six, and no more than that. Makes sense now, but your grammar/punctuation let you down. You confused a few others, too! ?? Sorry mate yes meant we are top 6 no more as in top 2 probably out of reach, we’d of all taken it before the season let’s be honest, it’s a disappointment to lose especially to this little horrid club but if we get in top 6 we go from there!

Oh yeah. Totally. Even with all the positivity before today's game, I said earlier this week, I'll personally be delighted with Play-offs.

kevinhectoring Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Sad day fozzie and cashin fabulous 99% of the time. But we see what happens if Didzy has an off day. He was given special attention and was often isolated. As Maradona observed, if you’re a target you play one touch football until they get tired. Today he might have been more useful playing deeper. Collins’ energy up front is wasted if we’re up against hoofball. Instead, start with Barkhuizen or even Sibley, give us more chance of playing football. Agree with those who say subs came too late. Not Mr Warne’s finest hour. But hey he’s doing plenty well enough.

Ambitious Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I haven't seen any of the game, but definitely feels from reading between the lines and following the small bits I could that this was more of a good win by Wycombe than it was a bad loss by ourselves. Obviously, no doubt, we could and have played better, but on this occasion credit to Wycombe - big win for them. Back to back home games now to put things right and keep ourselves in the hunt.
