Match Thread Rotherham (30 Viewers)

[procdoc]

We made Blackburn look irresistible. We'd have beaten them with 11 on the pitch

Hmm not too sure about that the way we were defending during that period

That’s the beauty of the championship, you lose games you think you should win and vice versa.

It’s football

Not just the Championship but football in general

I had a bad feeling about this game so I’m over the moon.

Have a good weekend

The goals are being distributed nicely now around the team.

Godden 4
Walker 3
Biamou 2
Hamer 3
Ohare 2
Shipley,Osti, Mcfadz, Sam also chipped in

 

[Skybluefaz]

H4s had plenty of practice.

But he wins them so easily. He puts himself in those positions. He should get 4 or 5 goals this season

True but seems to happen in this league the most

 

[larry_david]

I gotta say I'm delighted every time max scores. Today was the sort of goal he started getting in the middle of last season. Through and finish. He needs more tap ins though.

Talking of tap ins, that walker finish was not straight forward AT ALL

Think Walker come May will be in front by a distance

You get some proper turds on the phone in ....

Yeah, Bolton 3-6 Port Vale down in L2 today. Bonkers results every week

 

[Johnnythespider]

Just seen Wilson got booked after the pen

Max Overhead kick would have been icing on cake...he has to produce one in this league too soon.

Suprised we only scored 3 tbf, same team Tuesday

Think it was for kicking the ball away

Was a great save.

I thought Walker was offside, so the finish was even better.

The actual strike rates per starts arnt bad too.

Don't think many of them have started more than 10 games, maybe Hamer 13 games max

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

This guy from Brinklow sound ok

 

[Johnnythespider]

The forum’s one man anti-Biamou club is surprisingly absent tonight

He clearly doesn't rate him but he should be able to enjoy that performance regardless

 

[larry_david]

Yeah he came from behind (oh er) to hook it in. One thing about lack of crowds though I always think every goal has been ruled out as they don't really celebrate. Walker looked hacked off to have scored

 

[Liquid Gold]

have you not considered that there's been a progression to get us to where we were today?
I've also said we should go two up top, (though I did incorrectly say it wouldn't happen until Godden and Walker were both available)., but just maybe Robins knows a bit more than us and has held of playing it for a reason?

Why does every result have to be extrapolated out to be representative of how the season is going to pan out.

The majority of that side have less than 15 Championship games under their belts, there's going to be mistakes, disappointments and dire performances along the way. I just can't understand how some people can't see this and take it in their stride.
Enjoy today, but be prepared for more games like last Tuesday and Blackburn but hopefully with a few QPRs and Rotherhams along the way.

“You were right” would have done.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Not been able to follow too closely today, but seems like it was a good team performance, took the game to them and (mostly) didn't give them too much. A good confident boosting win and performance, hopefully.

 

[larry_david]

I imagine on that performance Rotherham will drop. Their form is shite and they've got a run in now like our first 10 games

Actually started that match ok...and hit the post before sending off changed things.

2011/12 P16 W2 D6 L8 Pts 12 GD -11

2020/21 P16 W4 D5 L7 Pts 17 GD --8

We won't go down I dont think

 

[ccfc92]

Absolutely fucking delighted, happy Saturday everyone!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

We won't go down I think

9 points from the first block of 5, already beating the target so just keep it going.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Also, the idea that we had to regress to progress doing the same thing we were doing before is ludicrous. We just decided to be stodgy against some shit teams when being proactive against good teams nearly worked.

 

[samccov1987]

Really enjoyed that, we seem to have turned a corner.

Shame about the pen and could have had a couple more goals but stand up Maxime Biamou... take a bow son, take a bow.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Still maintain that the main reason we were shipping so many playing wing backs was due to not having a settled defence or Kelly in the side, as opposed to the actual system.

Just a shame we couldn't see out the clean sheet, no doubt that penalty was caused by 5 at the back!

 

[David O'Day]

Lmao its 100% a pen. Hes hit him in leg with studs afger the balls gone

You are too old for huffing glue mate.
