S-Clarke Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 Pretty poor really. Sounded like a very panicky performance from the start to the finish. Long way to go though, so I'm not going to join the ''our season is over'' brigade. We really cannot afford many more results like this though, but luckily the results haven't been ''too'' bad for us. We've got a week off the league now, a chance to bring in some new talent and go forward. We're definitely a bit short in the wide impact areas. (seems a bit greedy that I'm saying that when we have Chamberlain and Lallana to our disposal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Window Cleaner Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 Disappointed that we have again lost after giving away a stupid goal early on. Those things change everything because you're running after the score from 15 minutes in. We have to stop this. If we can't then we have to put the players concerned into the reserves until they learn that soft absurd goals could cost the club promotion. For me Davis has to be dropped until he can learn to command at least his 6 yard box.We must be able to afford a keeper who does not make those elementary mistakes every 5 or 6 games.

Bailey Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 Bad day at the office but put the razor blades away! We're bound to slip up over the course of the season, but results elsewhere mean it's not the end of the world. Win our game in hand and we're back in the automatic promotion places. Simples. Make no mistake about it though, today was a bad performance against a side we should be beating. Full credit to Tranmere though. From the sounds of it, they fully deserved the win. Fair play.

Legod Third Coming Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 This was a very very poor result. The previous manager was slated for it. This one should also be slated for it. Not good enough. Close the book, move on and in future let's play like a team worth several times its nearest rival. Thank You. (Oh and can we have a creative midfielder in the window in case Lallana is out for a while?? And can we give Bart a run in goal to see how he goes?)

Weston Saint Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 Disappointing but not suprising. We are a team with flair, not cloggers. Was out with for a drink with Drew Surmans dad last night, both still massive Saints fans. Mot teams in the Championship play football and he feels Saints are capable of doing just what Norwich have. I am confident we will be promoted and rather that slit my wrists I look at the table and we are still in the mix. Lambert, Norwich manager tells his team that if you want promotion you must NOT lose two league games in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derry Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 It's time for a change in goal. Davis cost us the game today with the first goal. The fact that he is captain is a joke he can't even run his own goal area. When the ball is in the penalty area between the goalkeeper and the centre back the goalkeeper has to come off his line and take charge. As good a shot stopper as he is the rest of his dificiencies are going to cost us promotion. Bialkowski should now be given a run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winnersaint Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 Are some people guilty of having ridiculous expectations? We were never going to win all our games left after Oldham. It was also on the cards that we would draw a few and have the odd loss when we were expected to win. So a normal football season then? These things happen!! After all, if one of 'those things' hadn't happened on May 1st 1976 we'd have never won the cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hackedoff Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 Can outplay the best teams in this league, but fail to out-battle even the poorest of sides.The type of performance which come the end of the season is going to cost. If Puncheon and Conolly are not going to feature anymore then get shot and bring in someone who will, preferably some decent midfielders which might help us dominate this area in these type of games.

YOU should have a really hard bit of thinking before you post some of the utterly ridiculously, over reactive,knee jerk tripe you post on here like "promotion being gone" type post despite being 2 points from 2nd with game in hand.

St Marco Posted 22 January, 2011 Share Posted 22 January, 2011 People can try and spin it all they want and quote stats until they are blue in the face but we should be getting more then 1 point from playing Notts County and Tranmere. Nobody deserves to win a game based off of the size of the club or the players they have. They deserve to win based on the performance on the pitch and our performances didn't deserve the wins. Simple as that. I think we need a creative central midfielder and a pacey striker badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
