Heard someone mention jones is back Tuesday ? Not sure if he’s just talking rubbish or is he in the under 23 squad

It was never going to be easy, but I think a lot of the frustration is we don't take enough of the chances we do get once we have broken teams down. We've got to be more clinical once we've got in.
I get that these are L1 forwards and aren't going to be putting away every half chance but to get clear cut chances and not get a shot on target or force a save is poor. Its happening regularly as well.

Uttey ridiculous challenge by biamou, totally unnecessary.

But we lacked quality again in the final 3rd today, and ultimately should have won.

Clear pen first half for me though

Robins should of put Kastanner on for Baka today...

Ref missed a clear penalty then disallowed our goal for the same foul fucking fuming after that shit today

Far too regularly, and for far too long now.

The challenge was bad but I think he’s just nowhere near fit. He can hardly move. He is very limited anyway but at least he tried to put his body on the line in challenges unlike Bakayoko

Agree with all of this. Played everything in front of them, rarely turned them or picked the lock. But it’s not like we had a bench of creative players champing at the bit. Looking grim next few games.

We can't blame the referee, we MUST take our chances. Bakayako's miss when clean through was criminal. I thought his first was bad enough when he took too long and tried to transfer it to his right.
Accrington played well and came for a point which they got. We played below par and pushed the ball around at the back far too much. Too many draws will not get us promotion. Max is a miss but is Huwula fit? It's a problem but perhaps Kasteneer will yet surprise us. Scoring is the isssue as our goal difference suggest, and the amount of draws.

Well if we had to let one go to bring one in Baka would be my 200% choice but as it happens we have to rely on the fool to get us through the next 3 games.
Looked a stonewall penalty to me but as I said before about the fucking twats running about in little black uniforms because they fancy a bit of power but are totally fucking useless and i am going to fucking bed because I stayed in tonight to watch the game....beerless and hot.... night all

That’s why we won’t finish top 6. Not the refs fault our attack is poor, Godden included. Granted refs are dodgy but it’s a weak excuse.

I thought we played alright and opened a team that came for a point up well, just the finish or final decision.

Loads of clowns on here don't understand how difficult it is to break a team down coming for a point.

“Forward! Get it up!!!”

O'Hare hasn't been as effective as a starter as he was as a sub certainly

He really is...he has a few nice touches & that's about it...he's hardly the massive creative force some are claiming him to be
People were raving about him few weeks back he’s an impact sub for me rather play Walsh or Shipley ahead of him

Probably our worst performance of the season (ex Rotherham)

Could've won, should've won

Accy fans flicking the V's during the round of appluse summed their club up

Lack of goals clearly becoming a concern. Didn't think I would find myself wishing we had kept JCH!

You know it's bad when you start Googling "Marcus Tudgay" to see if we could conceivably pick him up on a free

This has got me thinking - remember the "Fans Favourte XI" thread? We could have a "Impact Sub XI" thread or, even better, an "Imagined Impact Sub" thread, for players who were always thrown on to shake the game up but never did very much at all ....Kevin Thornton springs to mind in the latter case.

Can’t wait till I don’t have to sit through watching him again

Robins said that Baka has had a sickness bug this week and that Hiwula has promised to try and be fit for next week

Don’t think Baka being well would of made any difference I’ve seen enough sooner he’s gone the better

As I’ve said earlier I would rather watch burge again over Baka.
