Wish gurney would pipe down. Every take he has is wrong

Speaking of CWR from next month it's Will on pre and post match full time and doing the rest of the city coverage during the week.

Chaos. Fairly ridiculous to identify Rudoni as the issue when both full backs and wide players have been woeful. Only Rudoni and Wright doing anything other than blocking shots that they have after we’ve given the ball to them.

I think MVE has been quite good and should have an assist.

 

[steve101]

Great work rate but haven't used the ball well. Trying to run through spaces that aren't there. Think we need to go more direct. Maybe Thomas-Asante would help in this regard.

 

[stupot07]

BTA on for EMC at half time.

 

[mark82]

Can I be first to say that Onyeka not been as good today as his first 2 performances.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Rudoni and emc keep getting caught on the ball
We’ve not managed to get wright or saka in the game at all
Great last ditch defending though

 

[jto123]

BTA for Rudoni surely? Purely from fatigue more than anything else.

 

[covboy9]

Fair play to the ref had a great first half

happy with that, bench to make a difference 2nd half we will take this one over

 

[CovveeBreak]

Going exactly as I expected it would. Cagey as fuck, 2nd best, but still 0-0.

Other than EMC and JDS getting turned inside out on the left, feels like a good battling performance in defence.

 

[jto123]

Can I be first to say that Onyeka not been as good today as his first 2 performances.

Yes and immediately shows us vulnerable away from home.

 

[Esoterica]

This is their cup final.

They relegated their arch rivals 3 days ago....

 

[shmmeee]

We weren’t awful at all. Sheff were good. That’s the difference between the last couple of games. We gave the ball away a few times but so did they. I think Sheff Utd will tire and won’t keep that up.

It’s not great

 

[Domo]

playing well, throwing the bodies on the line for defence, looks great.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

He keeps getting stuck on the ball

 

[clint van damme]

They won’t be able to keep this up

No. At some point they'll actually score

 

[coop]

Rudoni holding onto the ball far to long at times,we would be alot better if we didn't keep giving the ball away Clarke needs a rest and also on a yellow not in the game.

I used to work with a Bulgarian girl who used to eat raw onions (peeled) like an apple. Stank the whole office out. Can't remember why I started writing that, especially not on the match thread.

My father in law ( may he rest in peace ) ate raw onion with every meal , would often see him him with a cup of tea and a plate of onion and salt

 

[Briles]

Genuinely an unacceptable half of football. Fucking atrocious.

We look like a League One side.

Pardon?

 

[SkyBlueAussie]

EMC needs to come off, he is having no effect in the game and he is a marked man now, Lati scares the shite out of me every time he gets the ball.

 

[Finham]

Lorna's moving to the breakfast show? Thats one result today at least.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Bit of a mad half. We're letting them dictate the tempo. At least we've got to half time 0-0 so FL needs to change things around a bit to gain control.

Rudoni has reverted back to a few games ago taking a million unnecessary touches. I'd take him off for Eccles. EMC on an early booking and was playing with fire with the pen shout so I wouldn't see him lasting much longer. Either BTA or Esse on for him, probably BTA as he'll press them . We need to make sure we send the ball towards Tanganga and put the pressure on him.

Need to improve second half.

 

[SlovakSkyBlue]

We fucking suck, every time we try do something we give it away, one time they don't haji spoons it wide.

 

[covboy9]

Esse for EMC
Torp for rudoni

 

[Paul Anthony]

I genuinely can't believe they both think it was a Penalty. If you give that, you're giving every bit of contact in the box as a foul.

 

[wingy]

So what is wrong with what they said on the radio? I'm confused!

I think it's misclassified,gender bender is where that meaning comes from it should be applied for the Trans community not homophobic in the sense of gay community.

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Fucking hell dasilva

 

[quinn1971]

Slight over reaction, we’d of been 1 down a few weeks ago. Plenty on the bench to change things up, we’ll nick this

 

[Finham]

The amount of blocks Thomas gets in, its like he has a magnet in his boot

He looks like a bloke who likes getting hit by the ball. Like Mad Andy the builder in Peep Show.

 

[stupot07]

 

[tigersb]

Rudoni too slow and weak for this game

 

[shepardo01]

Rudoni??? He's the least of our problems. EMC anonymous, JDS getting turned inside out.

It's overall a very cagey away performance, need to improve second half

Although he is getting bullied out of possession and torn a new one every time he has to defend,
If Rudoni didn't keep cutting back and killing our potential to move forward, EMC may have had more of an opportunity to get on the ball!!

 

[LastGarrison]

Want an odd half.

Devoid of any real quality from either sides, yet both teams could be 2-0 up or 2-0 down!

Think EMC needs to come off now for Esse and then BTA for Rudi around the hour mark.

Still plenty to play for.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

He looks like a bloke who likes getting hit by the ball. Like Mad Andy the builder in Peep Show.

He wears the ball print on his thigh after like a badge of honour

 

[Potbellypig]

Good job we've got a stacked bench.

 

[CovLis86]

Successful dribbles is the telling stay of the half. Think it said SU had 8/13 and we have had 1/8. That's very very poor and putting us under pressure. Improve there, we break through their lines and suddenly look a lot better.
