Have we only lost 1 in 9 now?

their keeps must have atleast 25% of there total possession tonight

 

[larry_david]

Personally I'd start kane at rwb now dabo is out and keep Eccles ticking over imnewr midfield

 

[covcity4life]

For me, it was his failure to do the basics at times. He looked good when he was flicking it around the corner, etc. But basic 10 yard passes etc. Just constantly gave the ball away or chose the wrong option.

Didn't see same game as you stu. Thought he did everything really well bar the mistake for goal

Him and hamer best two on pitch for me today

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

It was the coming then going then just standing there I had an issue with.

It looked like he was scared of the shot hurting his hands

 

[shmmeee]

95% of what Palmer did today was awful

 

[skyblu3sk]

Palmer is one of those players who will frustrate some as looks lazy and un interested then next minute ripping teams apart.

Need to get him dialled in and focused. As cant try a Hollywood ball every time.

Fucking Lazy comes out again! I think you need your eyes testing.

I'd imagine Wilson will be released at the end of the season.

I think we'll probably look to move on Moore and keep Wilson as a number 2 as he's A. Cheap and B. Happy to be a number 2.
It's when he's ends up as our regular number 1 that it gets a bit silly.

He should have come and claimed the second too. Though the CBS switching off was unforgivable too.

He saved the first shot but Rotherham striker got a bit lucky with the rebound

 

[Evo1883]

Vik needs to learn to gamble and play off the should when the ball is going towards palmer with his back to him.. could have been in 2 or 3 times tonight

 

[Perryccfc]

Are people being serious saying Palmer was bad? Thought he was tremendous. Hamer too. More entertaining football but frustrating too. Will take the point and continue the unbeaten run. Blackpool will be a better side than Rotherham so should be a good game Saturday

 

[Tommo1993]

Sorry but Moore was given a few chances after dropping clangers. I see no reason why Wilson should only be given one.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Would politely disagree, I think he’s been improving bit by bit each week but tonight was his worst display. Giving away possession frequently, the scuffed sitter at 0-1, not harrying for the ball as he has been of late.

2 each fair result a game that leaves more questions than Awnsers but a point is a point.

I thought he was a mixed bag. Some wayward passing but some nice touches. He has that something that we need to turn possession into chances

We've seen that when players are clearly not up to it, he's not afraid to release them.
I think it's more likely we bring in a new 'keeper in the summer with Moore as number 2 and then he'll go at the end of his contract.

 

[Matt smith]

Have we only lost 1 in 9 now?

Yes

 

[Terry_dactyl]

I wish Clive would stop making that sucking his teeth sound. His commentary was awful tonight too, he has no idea which one is Hamer and which is O'Hare and descriptions of play were totally inaccurate.

Quote of the day from my Mrs after the Carlton Palmer comment…”they belong in a home”!
Oggy also talking about Bidwell when he’d gone off.
Waghorn seemed to make a reappearance at some stage too.

I love them!

I think we are starting to learn what Palmer can produce and it can only get better with o hare hamer and vik running off him

 

[jordan210]

I said said looks lazy to some.

Personally I think their is a great player in him.Just need to unlock it.

Think Bristol fans said he has a great pass in him. But can frustrate with stupid passes

 

[Macca]

Yes

Not to be sniffed at

 

[Ross1247]

Mixed feelings with this one. Could have lost it, could have won it. Great character to come back twice, but disappointed with how we fell behind both times. Hopefully not looking at another 2 long term hamstring injuries, to add to godden and Kelly just as we were getting our full hand back to pick from again.

 

[shmmeee]

The only criticism of Kasey Palmer I’ll accept is that his hairline is a Cornish pasty away from Klingon.

He saved the first shot but Rotherham striker got a bit lucky with the rebound

I meant quicker off his line in the first place.

 

[TomRad85]

Would politely disagree, I think he’s been improving bit by bit each week but tonight was his worst display. Giving away possession frequently, the scuffed sitter at 0-1, not harrying for the ball as he has been of late.

He's a massive upgrade on Shipley though. It's one of the few areas of the pitch we actually improved slightly in the summer.

Personally I’m taking the positives - quite excited to see Hamer, O’Hare and Palmer link up.

 

[Calista]

I've always felt Hamer was over-hyped, but I really loved the version of him we saw today. Clearly has been told to stay on his feet and cut out the reckless stuff, and I think his all-round game really benefitted from that.

Bidwell was attacking down the left after he had gone off according to Clive. That’s a unique skill

He didn't scuff it he tried to take it round keeper and I can see why. Didn't see you seething at Allen putting a shot right at the keeper from close range

You are always crying. Been doing it for years and tonight no different. You think of we are losing the players must be abysmal and that's just not true.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Ref did well????

Absolutely what mistakes were there??

Today was the Hamer we've been promised when we signed him.

When you listen to some of the away coms. It makes Clive and Oggy seam almost competent

Technique wise he is a cut above the rest

 

[Evo1883]

However we feel about Palmers game (which we clearly all feel different )

The players around him need to assume he's going to produce an outrageously good pass and gamble with it

 

[skyblu3sk]

How does he look lazy? He has covered a lot of pitch and tried to break up play. This fallacy he stands there waiting for the ball needs to end. He isn't a luxury player.

That is true tbf
