Derbados Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 We know the script by now, more than match them first half and create the better opportunities, miss some sitters. Second half they change it up and we gas out on 60 minutes and capitulate. Rinse and repeat until the end of the season. jimtastic56 and CROSSWORD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimtastic56 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 We can bang on about formations for the next 4 days and tell each other the Massive crowd will make us play better. But if we don’t “Man Up” and get “In their faces “they will run their tractor all over us. David Graham Brown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree - the many factors affecting team performance are largely caused by the circumstances under which we are having to operate, which is entirely at the hands of the EFL. There had to be a business plan put in place to ensure that we don’t get into the same position again (although just having Mel leave the building would have been enough), but the one we are under is close to impossible to function properly with. As such we simply have to back the club to the absolute hilt. Should the EFL loosen the straightjacket this summer, and in time to allow decent transfer activity, then I will happily be more lenient towards them.

Has it been suggested somewhere that he’ll play another 60 minutes this Friday? Thought he was having 2 fun outs with U21s wasn’t sure he’d had both yet?

It's quite handy to have The EFL to direct any anger at, too. Saves it being meted out on those who don't deserve it, but might cop for it otherwise.

Hourihane was one of the two subbed before HT in the Fleetwood game and was also second off against Peterborough. Warne definitely prefers older heads to young guns in this division, but maybe the fitness stats are showing him more youth is needed?

The "tackle" on white at Posh was a penalty. Not given. 3 times at 1st half corners, a defender had Fozzy in a bear hug. Not an issue until the kick is taken. Once the kick has been taken, unless the player releases immediately, it's a foul inside the box and, therefore, it's penalty. There's 3 more penalties not given. 4 in a single game. Referees need to start enforcing the Laws of the game and stop this stupid all in wrestling at corners, free kicks and long throws... and the 6 second rule. Obstruction? Happens every game. When did you last see an indirect free kick for obstruction given? Now think about how many cases of obstruction you see at every game...

I think morally, it should have been a penalty but, refs seem to rule out a penalty if the defender gets the slightest of touches first unless they completely wipe out the attacker. It’s quite possible (although some will deny it) that we may have avoided conceding penalties over the years due to the same interpretation. The wrestling at corners also annoys the hell out of me and should be stamped out. But, once again, I suspect our defenders are possibly/probably as guilty as our opponents.

As a ref, at 69 it's an occasional thing these days, I get annoyed whichever side is doing a "Mick McManus". It aint allowed, never has been, so why do it? OK, so we all know it started with the Italians, Spanish and Argentinians who got away with it and it spread... To me it's a sign that you're not good enough a defender to cope... Most of the time, the defender never even looks at where the ball is or where it's going, they are simply intent on holding on to the opposition player at all costs. My playing days started when I was 7. Last 11 a side at 53 and last 5 a side indoors at 59. Not a single booking in all that time. I also played a lot of rugby so I wasn't a softie, just kept within the rules. SKRam and Tamworthram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lousy results lately suggest that the older heads (and legs!) have a 45 minute best before date. How about trying out the young guns until half time then bringing on the experience for the second half? We would be less boringly predictable. At present playoffs are possible but winning at Wembley seems a remote dream of Far Far Away!

MadAmster Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 @Brammie Steve going on the last couple of performances, it doesn't seem to matter if we have owd buggaz on the park, the kids or both. There are no real chances being created. even when we have the upper hand in a game. Solve that problem and we're in with a chance.

plymouthram Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Chester had 45 mins on Monday 20th against Stoke, then Friday 24th had approx 60 mins against Middlesboro for the U21s.
