Yeah, definitely too many long range shots and not making the keeper stretch enough to save them. Most of them pretty standard saves for the keeper.From what I can see we lost because we used most of chances to shoot straight at the keeper and didn't mark their striker closely enough - he moves away from his marker too easily both times. Jones was unlucky to hit the bar with a smashing shot however.
You have to wonder.
Don't wish to be too critical of Burge, but he will surely be a bit disappointed he didn't do better with the two goals. Beaten at his near post a little too easily for the first and not strong enough hands for the second. Errors all round from the defence there though, especially Willis and Grimmer.
Our goal was soft too and their keeper should never have been caught out at his near post either.
Bad miss from Nazon at the end. Got it on target, but it was a bit of a scuff.
Jones looks good again and you know what makes my blood boil, if we had Kyel Reid here doing anything other than his one in five good efforts and contributing something, we would have great potency with Jones and Reid on the two wings.
Just look though how hard Jones tries compared to Reid.
We simply cannot afford to have an over reliance on Jodi Jones.

I said on the Burge thread earlier that after all the praise he's had lately, he hasn't done himself any favours there. 1st goal especially. Comes for it, changes his mind then he's not set and it's a very very soft goal on his near post. And as much as stokes should of done much better, it was very soft hands for the 2nd.You have to wonder.

Yep, now that was very poor keeping.Think Forde will be even more disappointed that Ducks shot was allowed passed him
Yeah, Pasty, you would think he would have to be a little disappointed with his efforts there.
Think you're being generous there - he took 3 steps backwards for the first goal, I'd hardly call that good movement! At the point the ball is crossed he and Willis are shoulder to shoulder.It's good movement and headers from Cambridge for both goals - must be difficult to defend against. We could do with a number 9 like that.
The best missed chance for us looks like the Nazon one at the end - he should have done better.
I hate to write it but if Jones keeps performing like that we may find it impossible to keep him next transfer window. Everything is going through him - we'd struggle without him now.
I don't care about other teams keepers. They can do what they like.Think Forde will be even more disappointed that Ducks shot was allowed passed him

Yes they usually do. Crewe in the JPT at home springs to mind.What about when they have games of their lives, which is usually the case against us some games?

Also that night Burge was filling in for the injured Joe Murphy, think Crewe had 4 shots on goal (3 on target) in comparison to our 13 or 14 or so on target. I don't think that he'll have a game that good again as long as he's playing!

I couldn't remember who it was, I just remember Murphy limping off just after half time, 1st thing his replacement had to do and it was in the back of the net. 2nd thing was tale a goal kick and he subsequently injured himself doing so. Limped for the remainder of the ge I seem to remember!It was Chris Dunn not Burge

I am not blaming him, but he will surely be thinking he could have done a little better there I reckon.
