Great result & exactly what we should be doing to poor teams in this league like that Not a great 1st half & up until his 1st goal I thought that Matsuki had a very poor 1st half. He came out a different player in the 2nd half. Great 2nd half performance by most & signs are there now that with our squad, that if all clicks we could be formidable in this league. Think we just need more positivity & faster play. Less slow passing around the back & edges, which was what we done most of the 1st half. Scienza had a much better 2nd half, thought that Larin was very good. There’s a great player in Edozie & if he gets more time he’d be ready/sharp at play-offs. Charles exudes class & calmness & Bree has brought more solidity to the defence. Fellows looks short of confidence & needs to get his head up more Great result - onto the next
-
Not a great performance whatsoever - but very important 3 points. Keeps us in with a chance of play offs Edozie looks quality - but you can see him & Larin both need to improve on fitness Truly hoping that Downes injury is just a small knock nothing major
-
Pretty poor 1st half - very much the same slow predictable play we see far too often. Evenly matched teams & game could go either way - do prefer Watfords faster/directness. Think we should be doing so much better with the quality in our squad, but it just doesn’t quite click. Need to show in the 2nd half how much fight & will we have to want to win this game. Downes was absolutely superb until his injury. Scienza pretty poor again - both wingers not doing enough. Goalkeeper living on the edge with his passes & we still look very vulnerable from crosses
-
Feeling optimistic about today’s game - which is a rare thing nowadays & normally leads to complete disappointment 😞 So, I’m going to keep up my negativity & say Watford will stuff us, in the hope that it maintains my run of getting it wrong 🤞🙏🏼 COYR
-
Deserved the 3 points. Stoke very poor - I’d thought they’d be a much tougher challenge today. We were superb in moments. Just not enough of them. Setup much better today & definitively the way forward. Stewart hopefully will improve with fitness/more game time. Good 3 points 👏 Think I need to continue being negative before each match
-
Good 1st half - looked brilliant in moments THB looks so much better in a back 4 & amazing pass for goal Wellington very positive Scienza a little disappointing - positive going forward but a little selfish & losing ball far too easy Midfield too deep at times leaving a big hole - need to be a little more positive Would like to see more going direct through middle rather than always going out to wings Be nice to get another early goal COYR
-
Sadly, yet again, going into another game where I can’t see us getting anything at all from this game. They have a much better manager who gets so much more out of his players. In our next 3 games my gut feeling is 1 point at best 😞 Truly hate having zero hope & being constantly negative about our manager/team, but God it’s total shite everywhere you look 👀
-
Another really disappointing performance- but that’s what we come to expect. Don’t think we deserved anything from that, Pompey were slightly the better team & like every other side want it more than us! We are pathetically lightweight & a real unorganised mess, do we ever win any aerial battles? In training they must be instructed not to head that ball! Tonda is so out of his depth & we are clearly going backwards sad football times
-
1st half of your typical/expected Derby play really - pretty messy & dull. Think we’ll be our own downfall with another mistake - suicidal passing at times, especially from THB & we do still look like a circus at the back, especially when the ball bounces in & around area. Midfield pretty empty at times - far too much space for them & ease to push in our final 3rd. Peretz been pretty good with his punch clearances, Bree been pretty solid & Matsuki been pretty good. Important decisions/timings on substitutions from Tonda needed and we could steal it Both poor teams though - not much between us
-
Come on Saints - Do us proud!
-
Here we go again! Tonight Tonda, I’d like to see 110% effort from all players, fight, spirit, balls, will-to-win, urgency, forward/direct passing, positivity, excellent defending of crosses, leadership, camped in their final 3rd, passion, clean sheet, solid goalkeeping performance, good/present midfield link up play, female streaker 🤞😂 Am I asking for too much?
-
No doubt another Groundhog Day performance & loss 😞 really can’t feel any hope Currently watching the Brighton vs Bournemouth game - 2 teams coached on a complete different level - positive, direct, high energy, fight/will to win, entertaining Sadly - Everything we are not
-
Tonda might’ve stumbled on our winning formula moving forward now Score at least 3 goals & we may be with a chance of winning
-
Rise & Shine it’s Groundhog MatchDay! Going for a 3-1 loss - with the same old dross 😞
-
God - I give up with this absolute shite! Football at its absolute predictable boring worst! Major changes needed all around
-
Still stuck in Groundhog Day! Yet another very poor 1st half. Positives, maybe Matsuki & a clean sheet Such predictable passages of play - boring as f & negative! Bellis seems to be getting far too much of the ball lately, like he’s a creative midfield player, his passing is shite Scienza disappointing, Downes non existant, Wood & Stephens utterly awful as always Quick changes in 2nd half please attack attack attack
-
Millwall totally deserved to beat us at theirs. So much more effort, fight & physicality. Their manager tactically played a blinder. Unfortunately, I only seeing it being the same today. Brave changes with team selection today but feel it’s less positive/attacking Hope Ekert changes it up at the right times if needed
-
Utter 💩 God we are an awful team. Tactically poor, unorganised, no fight, slow, 2nd to every ball etc……. Utter shite Birmingham manager very animated & willing his players on - Ekert stood there frozen - Think he’s well out of his depth What is happening at this club to allow this just to always stay the same?
-
Here we go again, please don’t make me feel like I’m stuck in Groundhog Day! Hoping for:- 🙏🏼 No goalkeeping errors, No defensive errors, No goals from crosses, No easy/give me goals, High energy/faster play, more forward/direct/positive play, Fight/Physical strength 💪, rapid closing down (certainly around our goal area), no stupid substitutions. Sure that I’ve missed plenty!? & am asking for far too much, it’s only been like this for years! 🙄 Got to see some fight & improvement - please! COYR - I’m clinging on
-
Pretty much halfway through the season & we are in Top 5 sides with most goals conceded - which is absolutely no surprise! Very much what we do over God knows how many seasons. Stats that are there for everyone to see - yet we seem to settle for terrible Goalkeepers & Central Defenders If any money is spent in January then this must be our top priority First & Foremost we have to be a side who is very hard to score against & for many years - we have been one of the easiest in every league we’ve been in
-
Piss poor defensively as usual Another cross & we seem to all freeze
-
How many years have we been absolute Dogshit at defending? it’s like a bloody perpetual circus back there - embarrassing! Surely there’s a decent defensive coach out there somewhere
-
Great test for us today Hoping to see 100% fight, faster/more direct football. Millwall game was not a straight forward defeat imo - they outplayed us in every department with so much more strength & will to win, worried me greatly, so today will reveal more. Our GK & defence is always my biggest worry every single game. Romeu looked way off fitness when he came on last game & Robinson needs to work on improving his strength - far too lightweight Going for a draw today
-
Got what we deserved today Very poor & quite worrying Clueless most of the time & needed a complete change of tactics Bellis needs a week of passing & touch training or maybe a month Aribo was a waste of substitution Seemed a lack of energy today & no real urgency - maybe last run of games has caught up with us
-
What am I watching??? 😂 Blimey - speechless
