Kitching and Simms have to play especially while we’re using 5 at the back.

MVE is seriously off it. BTA should be right down the pecking order.

Without Wright or EMC we have done ok to be fair, without those added time goals it would be 2 wins 2 draws.

Thought MvE defended better tonight ,going forward though he's way off last season's form

A non racist shit human then

Kitching?

 

[shmmeee]

Thought we looked good until the subs. Unless anyone comes back or is signed I’d play the same again against Bristol

 

[skybluecam]

Agree with everything but mve.

Thought he was good

But we need a rB in to give home a break. He covered so much ground and we will be in trouble if he gets injured

For me mve is a frustrating watch at the moment, he’s not hitting the levels we know he can.

 

[HuckerbysQuiff]

Simms/Kitch need to be starting every game as/when/if fit. Start building that consistent spine.
Just need a combative midfielder in through the door that hits ground running & may start turning a corner, especially when Wright & EMC get back fit

 

[StrettoBoy]

But we need a rB in to give home a break. He covered so much ground and we will be in trouble if he gets injured

I totally agree

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Kitching?

Is all the rumours on here about him true?
He always seems a popular member within the players

MVE - (NEW CB) - KITCHING - BIDWELL

(NEW RW) - SHEAF - (NEW CM) - EMC

SIMMS - WRIGHT

This team cooks. Now just need to get the players

Thought every player gave everything tonight. Chalk and cheese to earlier performances.
Allen has an incredible engine - hardly touched a ball and then plays back to back full games, with a heart problem. Pleased for him that he was given the armband.
I think Dovin's penalty save and Bassette's winner will do them both the world of good. Loved seeing Dovin pumped up.
Feeling proud of the team, which I haven't felt for a long time.

We'll never play 4-4-2

 

[covcity4life]

I totally agree

Congratulations because that means you are right!

 

[CCFCSteve]

Binks looks better in the middle of a back 3 as he doesn't have to cover the left back , it actually suits him there tbh and the defence generally had a good game but kitching steals the show

I’ve always thought Binks is positionally poor in a 4, he’s still young though. Agree he looked better today. Kitching for all his hot headedness gets stuck in and is an organiser. I’ve been pissed off he hasn’t been given a run until now, especially when we’ve been so loose at the back. Just hope he’s not injured, would be just our luck

 

[Ccfcisparks]

We neee to find a way to play Wright Simms and EMC

Why does everyone have a hard on for 442 lol

We would need an absolute worldie CM signing to make it work.

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Definitely.
EMC at wingback ?
EMC as a 10?
EMC at RW?

Yeh in fairness, I suggest because I can't deal with the idea of having to pick between Wright and EMC when both fit. Truth is, they'll just have to rotate.

It's a dinosaur system that modern styles tear apart

Wright on the right. Been saying it for weeks, no reason he's not just as good there as on the left imo.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Definitely.

EMC as a 10?
EMC at RW?

Don’t take EMC off LW, everywhere else he hasn’t impressed.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Wright on the right. Been saying it for weeks, no reason he's not just as good there as on the left imo.

He’s too important a player for us to be in a position that isn’t his first choice

 

[bigfatronssba]

We definitely need to learn how to see out games.

Good points though was:

We're certainly starting to look tougher
We look like we're trying now
We look more organised (still not enough though)
Less stupid mistakes

 

[Tommo1993]

Was Binks sent to the sidelines straight away or was it his own free will to go that quickly?

 

[wingy]

Don't think so.

 

[TomRad85]

CF is his first choice is it not? Only went on the left after a very small number of forum visionaries *cough* called it way before it happened.
I'm telling you, he's 2 footed, I don't think it would make a huge difference. Unlike EMC.

 

[shmmeee]

Was Binks sent to the sidelines straight away or was it his own free will to go that quickly?

He was sent I think cos he was complaining the whole way

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Definitely.

Think EMC could play wingback I know it’s sounds silly but they played high up the pitch today, more like wingers imo.

 

[bigfatronssba]

And as we also stated , kitching displays leadership qualities that we've missed this season.

He gave dovin a proper bollocking first half and it was in a weird way good to see

Its very good to see. It means he actually cares about winning.

 

[clint van damme]

Wrong subs, poor game management, extra time we could have done without, but what a way to go through!!

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

He was sent I think cos he was complaining the whole way

Yep he was sent, although as it’s a head injury in a break of play should he of been made to go?

 

[shmmeee]

For me it’s:

Dovin
MvE Thomas Kitching New LB
New CM Sheaf/New CM Rudoni
Wright Simms EMC

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Also been banging the Kitching drum all season. Genuinely think he’s a leader. Hoping to see him start alot more now and I might be insane but would give him the armband

 

[clint van damme]

The ref was a wanker.

 

[skybluegod]

Yep he was sent, although as it’s a head injury in a break of play should he of been made to go?

Yes, correct decision by the rules by the ref, it's unfortunate.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Final one, Simms showed real hunger today. Earned his spot.

 

[Cally Fedora]

Enjoyed that - probably helped by winning. I thought Rudoni was excellent. Kitching and Dovin showed why they should always have started. And has Allen made a case for himself long term?
