NottsRam77 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 just bloody annoying isnt it played well enough to win that and certainly not lose it. Thats football isnt it, its not the first time we’ve ballsed it up and wont be the last. Warne isnt accountable for stupid individual errors like that. weve just got to put our big boy pants and sup it up.…… again (sigh) Andicis, Premier ram, GB SPORTS and 4 others 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simmoram1995 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Slow defence and very error prone slow midfield over reliance of ward’s cross Collins not good enough. I know it’s the first game but I didn’t enjoy that style of football at all! I’ll wait to analyse Warne but I think top 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Now is not the time for over reactions. I'm sure things will be a bit more measured after four or five games and we've got a better read on where this team is actually at, but, on the other hand.................

Big Trav Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I’ll say one thing, if we play like that every game this season. We go down. Midfield way too slow and lethargic, Hourihane was walking 70 mins, should’ve been hauled off. Little to no creativity. Felt like we were scared to make a forward pass at times. Ver very concerning first game. Hopefully Warne walks into clowes office tomorrow and tells him to get his players in gfs1ram and Hector was the best 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eoghan1884 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) The midfield was poor today. We had some bright moments. It’s obvious we need strikers in the door, which we will get. Wilson and Ward look good. Sonny is better than what he showed today. We will be ok. Edited August 5, 2023 by Eoghan1884 SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 We would've won that game 7 or 8 times out of 10, it's just frustrating that we've started the season by giving the opposition an undeserved victory. On a positive note, I'd rather show the flaws in the squad whilst we have an opportunity to rectify it. We could've won 3-0 without playing any better, just being a bit luckier, and all of a sudden things are completely fine. It's very obvious this squad needs more quality and depth, and Warne is clearly trying to add to that. Hopefully we can finish the transfer window with a few new faces, and in or around the top 6, then push on from there with hopefully a stronger side. cstand, Andicis, Ramarena and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vonwright Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 2 minutes ago, Justa said: Trying not to be too downhearted but after our ‘recruitment campaign’ this was pretty much what I expected. I completely understand people who point out it's not easy to sign players, sometimes targets go elsewhere, blah blah. But the clear fact is we massively prioritised the defence and wing back positions in our recruitment this summer and we've neglected the midfield and attack. If we've now run out of money and targets then that is on the management and ownership. Our midfield and attack have needed attention for a long time Hector was the best, Will Hughes Hair, Justa and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Such a chalk and cheese performance. The bad? Wildsmith, Bradley, Cashin, Smith, Hourihane, Bird and Collins. The good? Nelson, Ward, Wilson. Can bemoan Warne all we want but there was a lot of basic passing and control errors. So static at times, particularly first half. Not sure why he subbed Ward off though as he was the only route to a goal. Desperately need pace going forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s the first game but I didn’t enjoy that style of football at all! I’ll wait to analyse Warne but I think top 10 I'm not sure what you were expecting from Collins. Other than a weak shot when he didn't realise how much time he had, I don't remember him making a mess of any genuine opportunities, worked hard as always, linked up the play well, protected the ball pretty well too. The improved quality of crossing (Ward) should lead to more chances for him and hopefully more goals. Personally I'm not bothered if we use plenty of Ward's crossing if he continues to cross as well as he has been doing, and if teams continue to let him do it! Other than that, I agree: lost the game on two poor mistakes, and the midfield didn't quite click today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
