A game we could/should have drawn. Not too unhappy with performance. But you can’t play Marty ‘turns like an oil tanker’ Godden up on his own. And shippers needs to put himself about on the pitch...pulls out of 50/50s. Walker needs to get fit

No we deserved nothing. They had 18 shots to our 3.

Looking a bit toothless - feel sorry as they dug in, and that first goal looked like a foul on our player too me - so should have been a free kick. The second goal was because we'd gone shit or bust and went bust. Free kick given for the first and we'd have got a just about deserved draw. Haven't got time to sulk (except for on here!!) Roll on December!!

 

[clint van damme]

Because we'll get spanked by Watford and people will use their relative strength as an excuse.

so you'd rather be in Wycombes position? I'm not sure what point you're trying to make keep banging on about the team 2nd bottom of the league.

 

[Bristol sky blue]

Middlesbrough were there for the taking. They'll be bottom end of the league, but we are fucking crap.

There for the taking? They were unbeaten in 6 and beat Bristol City away...

Godden is the best we've got, does a good job ploughing a completely lone furrow

The bloke is a finisher, he needs the ball to his feet in the box. He isn't a Jamie Vardy striker playing off the shoulder with pace.

If he wants somebody to just run about chasing shadows get Bakayoko on.

 

[covcity4life]

Hang his head for being fouled, ok...

Suppose ref mugged rose on weekend too?

 

[ccfcway]

Have a day off you clown. We haven't threatened against a poor championship side. They'll be bottom 8.

bottom 8, really ?

 

[djr8369]

You’re getting punished for not spending 200% of your annual income when all around you are. We’ve been in this situation for years in this league welcome to our world.

I saw the other week that a couple of seasons ago the only team to not make a loss was Rotherham and they went down. This league is a joke financially.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

as opposed to people saying wycombe got a point tonight but dont note they have 5 times less points than us ?

I back them to win a game before us looking at November

 

[cc84cov]

Hang his head for being fouled, ok...

He tried to dribble past players in central midfield ?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

We have no plan B, no threat, no defensive security, no outlet. Going to be an embarrassing season.

 

[benccfc]

Funny how all of their defenders don't even bother closing down Allen or Shipley cause they know they're gonna do fuck all with the ball

 

[Skybluefaz]

Not just me. Many of us paid to watch that tripe.

It's called supporting you fucking melt.

 

[larry_david]

Gotta be honest I'm uttterrly illusioned. Shipley seemed to give up which is a disgrace. Our fitness levels are not good enough. We are carrying too many players.

Godden finishes but does fack all else. We sat back for the draw with the plan to nick one. It should have happened. Both their dogs were Sunday league stuff.

What is worse iis we spent 80 mins hoofing it long to a 5ft 8 striker with no pace, we then make two changes to get players up top to support and we start playing keep ball at the back.

Have we lost our identity here!?

 

[Yorkshire SB]

Frustrating performance, demonstrating the jump in quality. For me Giles and Allen out on Friday, Dabo and O’Hare in - give Walker 30 mins

 

[David O'Day]

16 million.
Roberts has played Champions League, McNair played for United and at the Euros for NI, but that's no excuse apparently. Honestly, some of our support are fucking embarrassing. Couple of good seasons and the sense of entitlement is off the scale.

There's folk calling Boro shite and a bottom 8 team

Cov fans can be clueless cunts

 

[Macca]

Halloween coming early Friday

 

[ccfc92]

Fuck me we are shite. Far too sloppy in possession.

We lack the required quality in attack.

Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

We lack an actual attack. We shit ourselves when we get near the opposition box.

 

[Kieranp96]

Yeah, was asking earlier if anyone else got it free. I’m wondering if anyone paid for it?

I paid for the cov game on I follow and watched Wycombe through sky, sky coverage was shit lats game so

 

[mr_monkey]

He tried to dribble past players in central midfield ?

And was fouled....

 

[Chip Batch]

Fucking embarrassing.

Robins needs to start looking past the obsession with Godden on his own.

Two up front against Brentford and from 76 minutes tonight didn’t help us.

Most other teams in this league have better players and are experienced playing at this level. We don’t have that so it’s going to be difficult every game.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

so you'd rather be in Wycombes position? I'm not sure what point you're trying to make keep banging on about the team 2nd bottom of the league.

No, but they're making more of a fist of it than we are which is inexcusable

 

[Evo1883]

17 shots to 3... We deserved what we got in the end

 

[David O'Day]

We can’t just say “it’s ok to lose to these because they’re further up the league than us”.

If we continue like this then every team will be above us because we’re dead bottom.

Do we just accept a loss on Friday now because Reading are just better than us? No, we should be going for it because we’ve earned the right to be in this league and the only way we can stay in here is by winning football games and not thinking every team is a combo of 2012 Barca, 90s Milan and 70s Brazil.

No one is saying that, what people are saying is they are just outside the play offs and there are other teams we will be targeting more for points

 

[covmark]

There for the taking? They were unbeaten in 6 and beat Bristol City away...

Did you watch the game? They were shit.

Unless we develop some attacking threat we can forget it

 

[The Philosopher]

Middlesbrough weren’t that great.

We have they players to beat them.

Unfortunately, we put different players on the pitch today and played them in strange positions.

 

[speedie87]

The subs cost us.
Gone two up top again and conceded
Hyam and mcfadzean lack of pace is going to cost us all season
Marosi is a bit of

 

[weecohawena]

Not sure Sheaf and Allen are the answer. Getting exposed for no pace. We are always a better side with Kelly in.

 

[Kieranp96]

There's folk calling Boro shite and a bottom 8 team

They ain't great considering their striker cost like 16m

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

You are dreaming. Not a chance we deserved a draw out of that.

Didn’t say we deserved one but 0-0 should have been the score

 

[Nick]

Did you watch the game? They were shit.

They beat us 2-0 though.

 

[David O'Day]

No, but they're making more of a fist of it than we are which is inexcusable

how? they just got their first point in 7 games? Stop talking such fucking shite

 

[CanuckSkyBlue]

I think the long and the short of it is that we're not a very good team at this level. Going to be a long hard season, you can tell the early confidence has just gone.

It’s probably because they know they’re not up to this level. Confidence carried us last year at times

Melt? Are you 12?
