As I said on the other thread, Oldham in the second half suddenly started pressuring us much higher up the pitch and kept closing us down. This then meant we couldn't play the ball out from the back and RCC had to resort to kicking it long. We did that and the ball kept coming back to us, so TM...

Would have preferred Murphy to Kent today for sure.

He is. As well as all his skill, pace and goal-prowess, he also works really hard too, which then leads to defensive errors from the opposition. Murhpy is a lot more hit and miss.

You're forgetting the great chance Armstrong had in the first minute, stu.

Then they were truly at a different game.

We had no more defensive cover on the bench Nick. Only Kelly-Evans, who you would have to assume is not ready for first team football.

Don't think we should overreact here. People are talking about cracks, but last week we should have won that game and there was no way we deserved to lose. Key decisions went against us. Today we were seconds from victory and TM has said RCC was clearly fouled. Would people be talking of...

Totally agree.

And so too had Kent passed instead of taking that shot in the first half that went wide of the post. We had 2 players in the box waiting for the ball in.

Ricketts Fleck Turner. Those 3 missing was massive today.

You think Kent played well? I noticed he got a standing ovation when he went off, but again I found him really frustrating with his lack of end product.

TM saying RCC was fouled for their goal, so is that the keeper's fault? It's okay, Glen, we know you only pop up when things go wrong and then disappear into the ether every time things go right. :whistle:

CWR certainly seemed to think there may well have been an infringement.

Oldham were quite clever in that they almost forced TM's hand into bringing Fortune on. They suddenly started pressing us high up and the pitch and closing us down and RCC had to resort to long boots up the field. It was a battle neither Cole or Armstong were ever going to win, so TM had to...

I thought he was just okay.

Don't think we need to get too carried away with dissecting the team and today's performance. 1. We missed Fleck. No doubt about it. Bigi did okay, but Fleck would get the vote over him every day of the week without question. 2. We badly missed Ricketts. Missed his calmness and organisation of...

It was out of Vincelot and O'Brien, who were also the 2 players who could really hold their heads high too.

Yep. Unless we change our game this has 0-1 written all over it.

Should think not at the mo, it's half time.

No, his spell looks over and done.
