Cam the Ram Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Looks like there's a lot more intensity to our play at the start of this half. We're passing much quicker and pressing them more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 (edited) Bird for Fornah makes it a personnel more than tactical change. I'm not convinced that this will be a panacea. Edited October 7, 2023 by sage angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charliegeorge1962 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Oxford are 9 pts in front. Portsmouth 8 ? I always think trying to catch a team 9 pts and above is very difficult. But the bigger question is.... Are we really a team that looks like promotion this season? How have the bookies got this so wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee SCREAMER !!

Secondly I am concerned about Collin’s attitude. He hasn’t done much , but he has bern mardy about it. And thirdly (yes, I know that is about “Spanish Inquisition”!), but it moght be a half-reasonble idea to have a number 10 playing the number 10 role. Shove Waggy up front, and swop Collins for a number 10. Said earlier it smells of a Collins red card game. I'd have put Waghorn up top and brought Sibley in behind at halftime.

In this league it’s a big lead because a lot of teams are very poor so not winning can become very difficult not to achieve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, a lot of long balls in the first half were completely bypassing the midfield. I'm not sure they had much chance to get the ball down and play.

Caerphilly Ram Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Another bright bit of play a minute ago saw a quick freekick release Barkhuizen in the area, he did well to get away from the defender and tee up Waggy whose shot was charged down. Lots of pressure since half time, need to make it count. LincsRam and Walkley Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
