Whitey Grandad

You’re treating it like you would other home games this season. We were already relegated! As I have said above, our approach was like that of a condemned man refusing his last meal because he’s afraid of putting on weight. We might at least have been allowed to enjoy our steak and chips. The decision to play five at the back killed any prospects that we may have had, just as it has on so many times this season. Especially when those five include Bednarek and Stephens. We were set up to fail and fail we did. I repeat, what were we trying to achieve?

And it was abject rubbish. How many times do I need to say it? We were already relegated so what were we trying to do? Can you not see that sitting back in our own penalty area just invites the opposition to come and have a go? Playing five at the back at home is ridiculous nonsense in any league. At the very minimum, absolute minimum, we should have tried to score a goal. It’s no wonder that so many left early once they could see that we had given up. You need to realise that the score didn’t matter. What was more important was giving us long-suffering fans something to cheer about.

Cramming our own penalty area was only going to end one way. We were thrashed again precisely because of our timid, negative setup. ”suffocate and nick something “? What on earth was the point of that? We should have gone down with all guns blazing.

Sorry. I don’t do miracles.

I must have stung him into action.

He’s a strolling spectator.

I don’t remember him ?

Once seen never forgotten.

Brillo !

I think you’ve missed my point. What were we trying to do? We were already relegated so goal difference doesn’t matter any more. We were thrashed anyway and I firmly believe that our team setup contributed to that. Again, what was the point of it all?

It’s gone down the toilet.

Your defence starts at the other end of the pitch. As for trying to limit their space we surrendered the whole of the midfield to them and sat back in our own penalty area. This will only ever end one way.

Works for me 😊

What would he know about those? 😉

That feeling lasted about ten seconds for me.

What an idiot.he clearly believes that Ukraine started this war.

To be honest I’d be inclined to throw Will in for free.

We got well stuffed anyway. What were we playing for? To keep the score down? We were already comfortably relegated. The way we played was like a condemned man refusing his last meal because he was trying to lose weight.

You seem to forget that football didn’t exist before the Premier League.

For the first time ever I ignored their applause as they came over to the Kingsland.

It was stupid because he was guaranteed to give away a penalty and it was clumsy because he actually did give away a penalty. There was no need for him to go flying in like that. Even getting a solid touch on the ball is no good if he touches the other player first.

The “advantage” shouldn’t have come as a surprise to anyone given that the referee gave a clear signal that he was applying it.

You’re very welcome. You probably know of another useful iPhone keyboard shortcut where instead of typing shift and then the symbol above the letter you simply swipe down on the letter itself. This can be useful for entering the occasional number for example.

I have come to accept the realisation that we are nowhere near good enough to beat Derby’s record. We are not worthy and it would be an insult to them if we did. We deserve nothing more.
