Players bollocking Burge as he almost cocks up again

Closed down quickly after taking a touch, poor clearance and Stokes has to foul his man to stop a chance at goal

O'Brien on at half time!

The whole defence look like they've never played football before.

Wish people would lay off Biamou. It's not helpful. Not like he's playing badly, just needs a goal.

I'd bring Barrett on on the left, or put JMD on the left and Barrett on the Right.

I like having wingers who can cut in to take shots. So I'd give Shipley 10 mins second half, then he's out for Barrett.

When it's costing us points so often in a promotion chase then maybe we need to be a bit ruthless.

The two Exeter centre backs are awful. Need to get them isolated more. Maguire-drew has been very wasteful with possession. He should keep it simple and play footy with McNulty and Bayliss instead of looking for the dream pass. Hope Bayliss runs with the ball a bit more 2nd half too as the space opens up, he was neat and tidy that half without ever really being dangerous.

He's not costing us points, he makes us a better team. He gives McNulty the opportunity to to what he does best rather than trying to do the donkey work too.

He still contributes well to our overall play despite not scoring. It wasn't long ago that McNulty was getting abuse.

I wouldn't have said the Biamou miss was a sitter either. By the time he reached the ball the keeper was right on top of him.

He is producing, just not scoring. He needs a goal but he also deserves his place in the team. We've been better with him in.

Fans are dumb sometimes. His position says striker so if he isn't scoring at a 20 goals a season rate he isn't playing well.

It was pretty high as well, just above waist height.

Yeah okay is there a point to that?
If a keeper makes 2 mistakes in the first 4 games? How can they not be dropped?

Burge made one about 16 matches ago? And has now made a second? Big difference

You're entitled to your opinion, even if it is wrong. How many bad games have you SEEN him play?
