HorsforthRam Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Went today. Good win. Helped by the sending off. Personally, I still found it a frustrating watch. Turnover of possession so quick. Too many long diagonals. Goals not really coming from sustained pressure, just rather staccato. Yes, I’m happy with the result but it wasn’t a great match imo DanS1992, Chester40, hintonsboots and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An average league with average players. As for taking the high ground...for the last 2 months, 90% of what I have read is forum posters wanting PW out. Nothing wrong with having a go back at them now is there? We have a squad of above average players for the league, as has been proven massively by our recent form. You're not getting out of calling the squad laughably average that easily. I couldn't care less whether you want to crow about recent results or not tbh. We're achieving results at the level we should be with the squad, no more than that. That doesn't make people's concerns about the long term under Warne any less valid, just because you're focussed entirely on the short term .

Poor first half although they only really troubled us once or twice. Created enough chances to win 2 games second half. I'm even expecting xG to be over 1 this weekend. hintonsboots and Walkley Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jourdan Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Five league wins in a row and edging closer to the top two. A comfortable passage into the latter stages of the EFL Trophy. We’re back!

How does 3-0 flatter us? It could quite easily have been 5 or 6. Mick Brolly, Inverurie Ram and MaltRam 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most teams aren't even putting up a fight (except for when they stupidly elbow one of our players and get sent off) For the most part it's like we could leave backdoor wide open and put a big sign in the street saying "come on in, free TV, free sofa. There's £30,000 in the safe, combination 1884" with the only catch being that there's a big step in front of the door, no ramp, and any would-be robbers are in a wheelchair. All the while the opposition leave theirs open with a sign saying "beware of the dog" and an image of a rottweiler, but in actuality their house is being guarded by a kitten Edited December 9, 2023 by May Contain Nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jourdan Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 You have to wonder what’s changed. After Stevenage away, Warne and the boys looked like a half eaten Irish breakfast. In fairness, when you get soundly beaten by a Steve Evans side, it will lead even the most positive people down a road of introspective despair. Now if we win our next two home games, we could go into the festive period v Wigan, Oxford and Peterborough as the form team in the division and on the cusp of the top two. I can’t wait for Lincoln at home. My fiancée will be leading the chants of ‘If you love Paul Warne, jump around.’ when we are 4-0 up.

And we could quite easily have been 2 down before we scored. All about opinions mate, and that is how I saw the game. I respect your opinion that we could have won by 5 or 6, though I have a different opinion based on watching the game and looking at the chances they created. Even the DCFC commentary team agreed that it was a fairly even first half and they more than played their part in it. Do you want to disagree with them also?
