Some dreadful passing today

Sakamoto 13 passes out of 24 complete
Onyeka 5 out of 10
Rushworth 21 of 42

This is a wind up, right?

Not that it matters to us, but based on that performance, all of Hamer's dynamism seems to have gone.

I thought he looked good, not that I would have him back mind you

 

[shmmeee]

This is a wind up, right?

No those are real stats. Rare for us to have so many down at around 50% tbh. Grimes wasn’t much above those either.

 

[Johnnythespider]

If anything we probably could have got another with some better decisions

Yeah I think there was another goal in it for us

 

[covcity4life]

That is fucking MASSIVE

Huge improvement second half, another fantastic away performance.

Mental

You said it was terrible at half time

Now it's a fantastic away performance?

Come on mate lol

 

[marrrkjay_ccfc]

That was a massive win. A statement of intent.

The game also showed how far we've moved on from the likes of O'Hare and Hamer, they were both poor tonight. No end product.

 

[Cally Fedora]

Just keep winning. Forget what anyone else does

 

[Jamesimus]

Hamer was good I thought, but thankfully athleticism triumphed over ability today.

Some dreadful passing today

Sakamoto 13 passes out of 24 complete
Onyeka 5 out of 10
Rushworth 21 of 42

Rate Onyeka only attempting 10 passes in the whole game.

A lot of our problems in the first half came from sloppy passes / giving the ball away cheaply.

Felt we kept things a lot simpler in the second half and we restricted them to half the chances.

 

[Finham]

11 in front of Ipswich

They'll be watching tonight. A great win last night but no closer to us, bad luck.

 

[shmmeee]

Haha fucking hell have a day off

Just flicking through the stats like I do. Sorry if you don’t like them. EMC up to six assists, Haji clear second top scorer in the league. Are they allowed?

 

[HadjiChippo]

Beat Stoke on Saturday and we’ll have passed the 70 point threshold before February is even over, plus we’re smack bang on 2 points per game again.

 

[Saddlebrains]

You said it was terrible at half time

Now it's a fantastic away performance?

Come on mate lol

So youve intentionally missed out the bit where I put huge improvement second half then, sound m8

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

There is nothing shit about a gritty win at Brammall Lane. Phenomenal effort.

Campbell booked for diving as well, hook it to my veins

 

[Jamesimus]

No those are real stats. Rare for us to have so many down at around 50% tbh. Grimes wasn’t much above those either.

Haha mate, no one is questioning the stats, they are questioning your choice of timing when posting them! Did make me chuckle though…

Opta have us at 95% for promotion, 81% for the title

 

[wingy]

To come back for one down as well. Brilliant

A brilliant goal the tightest of gaps and instant response , knocked the stuffing out of them, lovely.

 

[David O'Day]

The first one definitely a pen we had luck on our side with that one

The EMC one, absofuckinglutely not

 

[TomRad85]

Hamer was good I thought, but thankfully athleticism triumphed over ability today.

Not many Championship players i'd take if we went up but I feel like Brooks might be Prem bound. Pace and good feet kills.

 

[Shannerz]

I thought he looked good, not that I would have him back mind you

He still clearly has the class, but where were the lung-bursting runs, power and verve?

 

[Jamesimus]

Just flicking through the stats like I do. Sorry if you don’t like them. EMC up to six assists, Haji clear second top scorer in the league. Are they allowed?

Yes they are allowed. Anymore nice / friendly ones? How many fouls did we do today?

 

[Johnnythespider]

It was an odd game, we were right under the cosh until they scored and then just found another gear and it was the old one two game over

 

[fernandopartridge]

That was a massive win. A statement of intent.

Hamer did set up their goal TBF

 

[SBT]

Rate Onyeka only attempting 10 passes in the whole game.

I don't know how he does it, it's awesome. Like he's playing a different game to everyone else on the team, but in a really effective way.

 

[Finham]

Hopefully tanganga gets a ban for the haair pull little dirt fucker.

Was that what he did? Jesus.

 

[shepardo01]

There is nothing shit about a gritty win at Brammall Lane. Phenomenal effort.

We've "Hull'ed" a win out of nowhere there!!!

 

[SkyblueTexan]

His handling tonight was excellent. I kept saying to the wife "if it had been Brad Collins tonight we'd have conceded there".

I thought the same. Collins would duck out of the way or let them through his grasp. But fair play to him for doing well during his loan. The thing about Rushworth is that he catches the ball cleanly and doesn't parry or bobble it.

 

[David O'Day]

People said Japhet Tanganga was the CB we shoud have signed, he was dogshit yet again.

Watch how clueless he is for the 2nd.

 

[covcity4life]

Not many Championship players i'd take if we went up but I feel like Brooks might be Prem bound. Pace and good feet kills.

Hamer didn't look same player to me.

 

[Esoterica]

If you cut Hamer in half there will be an extra ring for every year since he left city.

 

[RegTheDonk]

Think Shmmee just having a laugh tbf. Great result tonight, showed some steel, deefo got their bottle back

 

[bigfatronssba]

In 5 days we've gone from having iffy away form to being the best away team in the division

 

[djr8369]

What was that about?

Right before the whistle Tangana either twatted back of his head or pulled his hair

 

[Jamesimus]

Not many Championship players i'd take if we went up but I feel like Brooks might be Prem bound. Pace and good feet kills.

He did look good 1st half, not so much 2nd but I think that’s largely credited to JDS getting that bit tighter.
