ram59 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Just got back from the game, disappointing result with quite a few below par performances, but still more than deserved a point. Their first goal was a good finish, but we couldn't have set him up any better for it and this was shortly after we had a great chance to go 2 up. Our passing at times was atrocious, simple passes under no pressure, not reaching their target and some of them in potential good attacking positions. Hopefully, this won't be the start to a nervy end of the season run in, we're going to need a set of players capable of coping with the pressure.

MaltRam Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) Well, bugger. A poor game between two sides who barely mustered an attractive passage of play between them. Two soft goals from corners and a decent strike from a bloke given acres of space and all the time in the world to pick his spot. A lot of huff and puff from us but so many flunked passes and moves stillborn through a lack of care. Bolton did us a favour. Please, please let's get back to 433 on Tuesday.

G STAR RAM Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Wonder if we will ever lose a match again where it isn't because the manager is rubbish, his tactics are pathetic or the players are awful? kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong and DB83 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 1 hour ago, angieram said: Despite this, we more than matched them for attempts on goal, but they scored a great goal from a clearance, where was the defensive midfield? Hourihane decided to drop in as a 4th CB, then far too slow to close the man down when we initially headed clear - it was his man who scored. I don't recall where Adams at the time. He may have been pulled out towards the RB spot though? angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee SCREAMER !! Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 1 hour ago, IlsonDerby said: This isn’t true though. A win against a direct rival is much more valuable than a win against the cannon fodder lower down as you guarantee a rival gets 0 points. You mean if we'd won today we'd have been 3 points clear of Barnsley plus goal difference and goal difference ahead of Bolton even if they won their games in hand. No, we can't have that kind of thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB83 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I’m constantly surprised by the number of people on here who seem to be expecting and indeed demanding that we cruise to promotion. It very rarely happens; even Leicester are no longer cruising to promotion this season. We’ve only managed automatic promotion once in 37 years, and we’ve recently been at probably the lowest ebb in our history. It would have been nice to win today, but guess what, the teams in first and third place didn’t win either. We still are in with a good chance.

If we don’t go up, I think there’s a serious conversation to be had whether we should go in a different direction but don’t be surprised if Clowes backs Warne again.

vonwright Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) The to-and-fro about Warne feels increasingly pointless. Our strengths and weaknesses - and his - are clear, in our wins and our losses. Nothing much is likely to change before the end of the season. Why argue? Consistent results, one way or the other, are the only thing that will make anyone change their mind. For me? There will be more of the same. This is how we play. So these are the games, and results, we can expect. I'm not convinced having Collins (or Washington, or Waghorn) available would have made the slightest difference. Feels like the Billy Davies season, although then at least you had a sense of what he was trying to achieve. It all felt a bit more... coherent. Anyway. Could still happen, with a decent slice of luck. (Which is exactly the problem.)

If we don't get promoted, Warne should go. Can't really see any justification as to why we would keep him on in that instance.

DavesaRam Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 4 hours ago, Blondest Goat said: Doesn't matter who we play week in week out the opposition move the ball much better than we do. I know passing isn't the be all and end all but we make getting up the pitch look such hard work. I just want to watch us get the ball down and play some nice football for once. If you do that more often than not you will win. We usually do when we do it, even if it is just a iccle, iccle bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t have Bolton getting a win on Tuesday down as a banker though, so we need to capitalise if they don’t. Sorry mate, you’ve got me with that one.
