Simms took a knock to the head just before he went off. Could of been the reason why?

A 1 nil win for us in a drab game between 2 poor sides.

Piss poor result. Huddersfield were shite. Wright misses from 2 yards and is then caught offside 3 times in 5 minutes. The 3rd time led to their goal along with the comedy defending of 4 or 5 players. Another 250 mile round trip down the shitter.

Maybe it was something they had specifically worked on training? It the only explanation I can come up with???

Robins knew all along he wasn't a wing back. When we signed him he said " An exciting attacking midfielder " he might of hopes with coaching he could play wing back but clearly he didn't sign him as one. The lad has made a mistake allowing his man inside him to score. If he's played as a...

I'd try JL as a defensive midfielder with either Eccels or Kelly. We have a lot more cover at CB than in Midfield. That said I can see Eccles getting shunted out too right wing back if MVE is out.

Just got back. Despite dominating most of the game we were shite. They had 3 shots on target and all 3 went in, we had 3 shots on target and their keeper saved one via a deflection. If it wasn't for Godden we would be in the exact same position we were at this stage last season. A depressing...

I thought that was for 2 hours only?

Get the Mrs to drive to Westfield and park there. Only a 10 minute walk from Westfields. She can have an afternoon shopping while you enjoy the match. Probably cost you hundreds but she will enjoy the day out.

Looking forward to this one, but not the drive home. I'd stick with Godden as he's scoring and no one else looks like they can at the minute. History tells us he will get injured sooner or later so Wright and Simms will get plenty of time playing together when it hapoens. I'd guess the only...

Gary Mabutts cup final goal. ;)

Being in the playoffs means you play longer so lose less fitness over the break. We've also had 7 competitive games as well as pre season now so should all be up to speed. I would agree with you if it was the first 2 or 3 games but after 7 it shouldn't be a factor.

Why is it every other team looks fitter than us? We really seem to be struggling the last 15-20 minutes and seem to be conceding a fair few goals in that time.

Was thinking the very same thing.

We have a stronger squad but a weaker team than last year. Time will tell if they can get to the level of last year's team.

Well let's hope we don't sell our best players at the end of the season or its back to square 1. I can understand it this season but sooner or later you have to take the gamble and say it's going to be our year, keep the stsrs and go for it.

What did Hartson cost us in the end? It was a lower fee than the 7.5mil they wanted, but something like 7k per game he played if I remember correctly.

Every striker does that. The idea is to play it in the space behind the defender who has to turn and try and get back before the striker gets the ball and shoots. He's not looking for a pass to his feet.

Just didn't click between the strikers and the midfield today. If the strikers made an early run the ball seemed to be delayed, if they delayed their run the pass came early. Wright with the best chance but a comfortable height for the keeper. The Simms chance the ball was a yard over...

I thought he was pretty poor until he scored. Great goal mind, proper top bins.
