Not too bad. 1-1 is fair so far but like all goals could have been avoided had McFaz slid in. I guess risk of a penalty was his thinking. Think we will need to find a bit more if we are to win this. Shippers having a very good game and seems to have an understanding with Godden. Godden should have smashed that effort in tbf.

Have a look at the Facebook team announcement if you want to see how supportive our cretins are.

The irony

Just as many supportive cretins post on here.

 

[superskyblue]

Pressuring them well at the back. Sheaf and Allen doing well in midfield. McCallum also having a good game.

 

[Grendel]

Surely it shouldn't be? That's interfering in play.

He wasn’t offside anyway and even if it was the rules were correctly employed - it was a goal we’d never be able to score as we don’t have that pace and quality

 

[Dickie]

I really want Allen to do well as I like him and his emergence in the second half of last season was key to us winning the league imo but I just don’t see it in him at this level so far. His frame means he can’t get stuck in enough, not quite fast enough or technical enough.

Me too. Just seems to run around a lot

 

[shmmeee]

Very happy with that, Sheaf and McCallum looking like Championship players, Shipley playing really well and a great goal.

Don’t think we’ll be able to keep a clean sheet all season. School boy errors every game

We’ve already kept one.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Good game so far both goals were good cannot really complain apart from that sheaf effort but oh well

 

[Skybluefaz]

Really wish we had the pace up front to threaten in behind defences and give them that extra problem to worry about. We have to craft out goals all the time, would be nice just to play it into an area every now and again

 

[larry_david]

Entertaining half. Remind me to not check bet365 though as saw the fucking equaliser 40 seconds before it happened.

We lack pace. Allen seems to be an all rounder in that he generally is lacking everything atm

 

[Terry_dactyl]

Really hope Tyler Walker has some pace about him.

People have said he’s “rapid”. So I’m hopeful.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Except Swansea to take it up a gear or two second half. Hoping it doesn't blow us away.

 

[South West Sky Blue]

Playing reasonably well. As goals go, it wasn't particularly soft. No-one playing badly, but Allen needs to up his game the most.
I'm concerned that when we get the ball with back to goal we're put ounder pressure and lose it too often. When they get in similar positions they're able to hold us off and keep the ball.
Need a bit of luck.....

There's a lot wrong with that screenshot from the moment the ball is played. Rose has been suckered into following his man into midfield, McCallum and McFadz on the wrong side of their men and Hyam daydreaming and playing everyone onside.

 

[ccfcway]

Mccallum. A left back. Looking phenomenal on the right

have a look back at the thread when he signed. it was like we re-signed Neil wood

 

[Grendel]

Hyam looks out of his depth at this level

 

[David O'Day]

Ayew must have passed a COVID test otherwise why the fuck have they allowed him to play.

Doesn't matter, government rules mean if you have contact with someone who tested positive you need to self isolate

 

[Evo1883]

Me too. Just seems to run around a lot

I thought he had a good half, battled well

 

[Frostie]

Really wish we had the pace up front to threaten in behind defences and give them that extra problem to worry about. We have to craft out goals all the time, would be nice just to play it into an area every now and again

Annoyingly Tyler Walker would be perfect up there tonight.

 

[vow]

Allen and O'Hare a little off the pace I feel.

Not Allen's best position but hopefully he can step up 2nd half.

Shipley, Giles and Hyam playing well.

 

[superskyblue]

Hyam looks out of his depth at this level

On what basis? He's been as dependable as ever in every game this season, including tonight.

 

[Evo1883]

Hyam looks out of his depth at this level

I thought he'd been solid tbh

Agree but Godden is quality...clever player.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but Baka and bigmouth are quicker than Walker

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Grendel?

 

[jordan210]

Would have taken 1 point at the start. But now we realy should be winning this. We look far better than them.

 

[Skybluefaz]

On the basis that Grendel wants attention

 

[Londonccfcfan]

Playing well...only Ohare for me isn't playing at full potential..yet!...hopefully some magic from him

 

[Skybluefaz]

Agree but Godden is quality...clever player.

He is, 2 up front would be my preference to get the pace up there.

Wait until walker is back and match fit, that's one of the reasons he has been brought in

 

[Grendel]

He’s slow he doesnt tightly mark his opponent in the penalty area and fails to hold the line as we see tonight

 

[ccfc92]

It's frustrating, because we aren't a million miles away.

I think keeping it simple will help, we're trying too many little flicks that aren't coming off.

Some pace up top would be good, but not sure where that'd come from?

All stems from a bonkers decision by Rose to completely abandon his position. Literally no good reason for it, he's not pressing the ball or anything. But for that we go in with a deserved lead.

Let's do it again 2nd half!

 

[cc84cov]

We then lose the man in midfield when ever we’ve done it so far we’ve been over ran

 

[David O'Day]

Mate Grenners talks utter fucking bollocks. He's sizing Hyam as his new Biamou.

Just laugh at the tramp

Agree he shouldn't have gone, but he was tracking Lowe who is his man.
