And Posh for that matter. I would hate to get into the play offs and end up with another one of the performances like today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverback Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 I want to see how Pboro fare against them next week before commenting too much A draw seems a decent return today. Would have taken it before kick off. Tricky place to come Ram-Alf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaahnRam Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 I see this place is as cheerful as ever. Not a good performance against an out of form team, but we've come away with a point. We'd have lost that game last season. On to Reading and Cheltenham with a great chance of 6 points. Caerphilly Ram and SKRam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught it on radio Derby, but have cooked, eaten and watched some of Gladiators since then so maybe don’t remember it all clearly. So from memory I’d say Warne sounded fairly positive in his demeanour, praised them (Lincoln) and their efforts, said the ref could have sent Wilson off, praised Vickers, observed we weren’t quite at it and a point away is alright, commented at one point about shouting at Bird and Hourihane for leaving the middle of the park which meant we were wide open, then said some bits about recruitment ongoing that he has been backed and offers are in for players but stopped short of confirming anything about Blackett-Taylor. After listening to it I thought it was a fair summary of the game. Anag Ram, May Contain Nuts, Pikeyram and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think it’s too soon to be writing off top 2, Bolton dropped points today, Portsmouth have had a rotten run lately despite their win today, until it’s mathematically impossible I’ll keep thinking it’s on.

DavesaRam Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) Thank goodness most League One teams aren't good enough! If Lincoln had got a striker who could hit the target they'd have had us for toast today. And largely because of our under-use of midfield. We are obviously doing something right in order to be challenging for the automatic places. I said earlier that we ought to be capable of beating teams like Lincoln, no matter how well organised they may be, and there have been a umber of matches with the same situation. The old adage about not playing well but still picking up points being the mark of a good team, but we seem to be dependant on picking up points regardless, rather than having an occasional off-day. We had the upper hand for large parts of the match, yet our undoing was the lack of midfield threat, and a midfield that is so easy to go sailing straight through the middle of. The frustration the fans had in the period leading up to the "Warne Out" episode was largely because the team is capable of so much more. So although we are up at the top of the table I think on merit, I think we should already well set in the automatic places. But this remaining emphasis on getting the ball out wide and crossing it, despite the shift to a bit more football is filing to make the best of what we have available. All the opposition have to do is concentrate on snuffing out the threat own the wings, or simply heading the crosses out because we simply don't have a "League One Alan Hinton". If a tam can do that, then we struggle. They don't even have to park the proverbial bus anymore. We played some good football today, and our pressing when we didn't have the ball was excellent. Apart from Elder still being a but rusty I don't think anyone was poor today, but Lincoln had done their research on our sole approach to match play and snuffed our threats out, as well as exploiting how we set the midfield up. Oh, and in case you thought I had forgotten that there is such a thing as a ref - well he didn't do us any favours. He might have sent Wilson off, but it would have been an injustice, although that doesn't usually stop the refs doing it, and turning the penalty down, after first giving it, didn't do us a favour either because it wasn't a penalty - not even close. Although that hasn't stopped them being given in the past, either! But there weren't any game changing decisions he got wrong, either. So not tooooo bad, I suppose! I don't see our approach to how we play changing any time soon, so all we can do as fans is stay behind the team and give them everything we have got.

First 15 we battered them had 2/3 chances then let them in like we have a lot this season at half time we should/could of been 2-0 down to a better side we would have been, I’ll back warne to the hills like I have but would say we’ve been fortunate lately, we are definitely missing 2/3 players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s difficult to back up with stats but does a Bird/Conor midfield actually work? I personally think we need a new central midfielder with some pace and energy to support them. A better, more dynamic and stronger Thommo basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing is, if he were Derby, he'd be getting a fearful kicking on here tonight.

Caerphilly Ram Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) 1 hour ago, Dcfcsr92 said: Mick if you had played in a game of that proformance would you have been happy? There professionals and didnt turn up so .... Was it really as bad as you’re making out? If the players did not turn up as you suggested then we’d have lost, we drew away from home, it’s not the end of the world. We had more possession (66% versus their 34%), passed more and with greater accuracy (520 at 78% versus their 278 at 64%), more shots (19 shots versus their 10)….and maybe this is where they get some credit as they had 4 on target when we only had 3, they had and missed 2 big chances when we allegedly had none (I’d argue Nelson’s header at their keeper was a big chance)….but then we also had 7 blocked shots. From watching the game and reviewing those stats I’m very much of the opinion we did turn up, but a combination of not reaching our better levels, them defending resolutely, and a little bit of luck in how was wasteful they were means accepting an underwhelming 0-0 draw and we move on.

Rich84 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 1 hour ago, Dcfcsr92 said: We created 0 clear cut chances, they had 5 or 6. People talk about corners we had 3 in the first 3 minutes and 2 came from poor delieveries. Also its ifs and buts, the buts did happen and we are not 3 points clear any team could say if and buts 0 clearcut chances? Nelson header where he should have scored. Bird should have hit the target from Barks Cross. NML when he burst through and just couldn't quite finish. How were they any less than theirs from Taylor?
