Its the same most games, Biamou is usually by the corner flag

Bog of a pitch really having a negative effect on our play. Frustrating watch

I don't know why anyone expected this to be anything less than difficult and lumped it into the same bracket as the Wycombe/Rotherham/Derby games...which will also be very difficult games !!

We look so slow when the ball goes out of play like we’re happy for the breather. Feel like the whole team and staff would take the point.

biamou has been awful after the first 20 minutes - he looks like a lottery winner - his touch is shocking

Same old problem though, innit. We have no competent attacking threats on the bench.

Yes, because his role is to get in behind them, that relies on us actually having the ball & getting it to him to do that.
The target man role involves coming deep to link play, win flick ons etc. Your target man should always be one of the most involved players.

I'd bring James and Sheaf on. Hamer and Kelly have given the ball away so many times today.

Their player just handled it before the ref blew whistle. Should be our free kick

Whatever the complaints about Max (and some are justified) he’s been the only one really making much up there tonight

I didn't mention Biamou, you're obsessed. I like Walker and want him to do well, he's not having a good half though

Walker has been poor so far second half.

Apparently Shipley is coming on. Great.

That would need 47,520 minutes of added time so it's unlikely we'll get that even if Robins uses all 5 subs.

He makes things worse compare their strikers movement to him - he creates nothing and just gets in the way most of the time

I accept the fact that Biamou's not the most gifted player but surely he HAS to be capable of doing the basics of holding the ball up and laying it off. The ball just never sticks when its moved forward to him, so we can't build any sort of sustained pressure.

Absolutely gutted Biamou's efforts got him two v Brentford.

Agree with the point about linking but o'hare is also struggling to get on the ball and it's his job to feed him as well.
