Um I hate to break it to you but as it stands we have moved up a place tonight and are still the same amount of points above the relagation zone

Hate to break it too you but 5 teams below us picking up points is not good for us. We also haven't gone up a place after the second goal went in.

Side to side, hopeful cross. Again and again.

That's obviously the plan, gave up passing through them hence removing Sheaf from the pivot & putting the extra striker on.
The problem with that is even when we chuck crosses in Biamou is never going to get on the end of them.

Such a frustrating half. We’re passing it sideways at the back in the last 3 minutes at 2-0!

Careful sounds like defending the team. We are struggling this is where we need to stick together!!

Potentially all first 11 players out. Of course we are struggling

Neither Rose nor Walker would be starting if fit. Let's not use kelly and Marosi as the reason we have scored in 405 minutes.

Hamer been our best player tonight. It's frustrating we have gifted this lot 2 goals but equally frustrating we can't make an impact with so much of the ball?

He’s been poor as well, Dabo by far our best player. Hamer has been overplaying it way too much.

Expect 7's & 8's for him & Hyam in the Ratings thread whilst Sheaf will be lucky to get a 3.
Click to expand...

Yep, Hyam is the new boo boy and some are revelling in it.

Sheaf never stood a chance. He’s by no means set the world alight and he’s inconsistent, but he’s going to be, he’s young, inexperienced and playing in a new league. He’s also shown glimpses of his ability and importantly potential. Fans just don’t like players who don’t do Hollywood balls every time they get it.

fucking dreadful.
Plus points are we're 17th going into the New year and we can still hit 26 points at the half way mark. I'd have taken that at the start.

Sums up Shipley, gives the ball away, proceeds to make a shit tackle, then has a go at the ref for giving a foul. No no son, it was a shit tackle.

Agreed apart from on Hyam. He's had as many poor games as good ones this season yet to some he can do no wrong.

It needs turning around fast and February looks horrendous. Desperately need more bodies in and Joy has to put her hands in her pockets

we need to do in the second half of the season what we did in the first.
Would be nice to get a few bodies in admittedly.

If we are going to persist with this formation I'd try and get a couple of big fit bastards, who can head the ball, to play AM for us, at least then they can hit the box and be a threat. We get so much ball out wide with nothing to aim at. We've got a midget, a yorkshire terrier, an asthmatic and a guy who is knackered after 7 minutes vs. a division of giants.

It's piss-poor. It happens sometimes, we haven't had a shocker for ages but this second half has been one. So lacklustre. Nowhere near scoring at any point. I won't panic though, we're hanging in there. It wasn't that long ago that we were in the bottom 3. PUSB

Looking on social media our fans think we get points every time we get into their third and do nothing with it. Fucking delusional.

Shipley doesn’t impact from the bench and Godden does have enough pace to get away from players at this level.

If we have a similar second half to the season, we will be ok. Luton survived on the last day of last season, and look far better this season as a result.
We need patience and to stand by MR.

PNE had a worse defence than ours coming into this and haven't been tested. They've offered nothing going forward but scored twice. It's like the first 10 games all over again
