Like Max.

McCallum & O’Hare to drop out next game
Both poor today

 

[robbiekeane]

We played a back 4 today.

Yeh I have no idea why I said that, lemon

 

[fellatio_Martinez]

That was a utter disgrace from staff and players toda we shit ourselves by their approach m
Liam kelly probably the worst I’ve seen him

FUCKING LIVID

I'M FUCKING UP IN ARMS TBH!

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Our next away game is Wycombe. Some seemed to think they wouldn’t last but they won again today, 7 points clear of second and 12 clear of us.

They are a much better team than they get credit for. They will turn us over.

 

[cc84cov]

Do people still think O’Hare is better than Bright ?

 

[mark82]

Why have we abandoned 3-5-2? Just because 4-5-1 worked better against Ipswich doesn't mean it's the way we should play every game.

 

[mark82]

Do people still think O’Hare is better than Bright ?

No, absolutely not. I'd bring Bright back in a heartbeat even if it meant losing O'Hare. O'Hare is better as an impact sub.

Naivety mate manager thinks how we set up against a stronger side is how we should against an all edged lesser why on earth did we not go 2 up top today ?

Was Godden still limping when he came on? If so why’s he being put on

Another goal from chaplin today makes me
Wonder wtf Robins is doing with coaching our strikers

He got a hat trick...

 

[Gazolba]

What really tells the story is our goal difference, only +2.
The lowest of the top 10 teams.
We just cannot score goals.
IMO equal parts poor strikers and negative tactics by Robins.

 

[theferret]

2 wins in 10, no away wins, no back to back wins all season, only won by more than a single goal once, lowest amount of goals scored in top 10. I've seen better stats. I'm not sure we're as good as people think or our league position suggests. Got what we deserved today.

 

[cc84cov]

Joking ? Lol let me cheak this

just seen this fair play Chappers

 

[cc84cov]

Lose our next game and results don’t go our way we will be down to 11th

 

[theferret]

Lose our next game and results don’t go our way we will be down to 11th

And then we don't play on Boxing Day. A loss next week and we could feasibly be bottom half going to Wycombe. Next week so important.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Keep the faith guys we have been lower than this and remember the great win in FA Cup we are not shite

Jesus Christ

 

[cc84cov]

Jesus Christ

Chaplin & JCH upfront I wouldn’t mind but not coached here

 

[ccfc92]

I am not angry, just very cross.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Regardless of how questionable Robin’s judgement was today or how inept some of the players were:
There was a stonewall red card that wasn’t given + Their equalizer came after a foul on Marosi + Their winner was after they broke after a foul not given to us = Referee was a c**t
We weren’t great but they were no better and dirty fuckers. Hate to lose when it’s more about referee ineptitude than performance

Love your username

 

[fellatio_Martinez]

Yeah but we were top in September which must count for something, right?

 

[fatso]

Dear Santa,
Please can we play 2 up front from now on please.
Love from Fatso.

 

[Adge]

Well that’s our near full strength team and plenty of options on the bench too.
If we are serious about playoffs etc then we have to be winning that game.
We can all blame the referee (again) for our own deficiencies but it’s a lame excuse I’m afraid. We just didn’t turn up especially 2nd half.

Get a room

Lose the rest of our games and results don’t go our way we’ll be relegated

 

[Johhny Blue]

I was actually comparing it to his vitriolic post

 

[cc84cov]

Bit extreme JB but you are correct lol

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

I know this is paraphrased to publish an article but...

“We gave the ball away in poor areas and we looked tired and understandably so. There are no excuses, we just didn’t control the game well enough.

What were your thoughts on today’s referee? Agree with him watching McCallum on the floor for 2 minutes and then blowing his whistle just as Shipley was about to shoot? How about when he then have their keeper the ball to restart? Is that what the rules say? Or maybe the second yellow for Norburn that wasn’t given when he then booked Walsh straight afterwards for an identical challenge.

It does get tiresome criticising refs all the time, and I get why you might defend them, but surely you can see that we’ve had some stinkers this year? I’d rather not be able to criticise them, really.

Not personally saying that “it was the refs fault” but it really doesn’t help. Shrewsbury were pulling shirts (another one that Oggy and Eakin thought should have been a yellow but wasn’t given) and leaving the foot in from the start today, and they got away with it. Why?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Waiting at a freezing cold station my thoughts were:

1. Neither side deserved to win, few genuine chances created.

2. SBA in generally good voice and a good atmosphere.

3. Inexplicable decision making by O’Hare when clean through.

4. Never seen a ref stop an attack dead then give the ball to the keeper. Ridiculous. O’Hare fouled right in front of me, not given then they score-neat assist by the ref there.

5. Biamou and Godden were stranded on their own. Even on the few times we broke their lines ,we flapped ours.

Very frustrating trip with a predictable outcome. Will not make the top 6 letting shit teams off the hook every week.
