Fans panicking every time someone tries to pass the ball. Reminds me of earlier in the season. Does not help the players.

wow that was utter shite.

 

[Nick]

Let's hope we don't come out with the same approach in the second half.

Ideally Allen goes off for sheaf. More likely he waits until 60 to bring Palmer off for sheaf to defend the draw.

 

[Northants Sky Blue]

Robins needs to earn his corn here, the hangover from the Swansea capitulation is lasting too long

But without Fadz, Sheaf and Ohare what are the realistic options?

 

[Liquid Gold]

Worst performance since we got over the broken start.

It’s because they keep passing to the opposition

 

[Danceswithhorses]

Can see Waghorn off at half time, just to bring a midfielder on, to get control of the midfield back

Fans fault?

Maybe if fans can see things miles off then robins should.

 

[no_loyalty]

We have only played for the first 15 minutes, since then Bristol City have controlled the game. We desperately need Sheaf on.

 

[Esoterica]

Gonna be no changes at half time. Robins to make 2 changes on 65 minutes but only because Panzo has been sent off on 62. Bristol winner on 76 minutes. Tavares in on 83.

The negative vibes were well before that. People fuming at Wilson for daring to throw it short.

 

[shmmeee]

Doyle has been fucking terrible, whole back line look panicked. Just getting drawn deeper and deeper so there’s no one to relieve pressure when we win the ball back.

Need a rocket up half of them and a cup of herbal tea for the other half

 

[Grendel]

A half of two halves.

Need a good teamtalk and get back on it second half. Keep the faith

Dabo, sheaf and dare I say it tavares on at some point second half perhaps.

Pusb

Dabo? With their pace? Good luck with that

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

There's too many players hiding.

Waghorn, Palmer have totally dropped off.
Allen, Panzo, Doyle having bad games.

We started really well and were completely in control. We score and then just don't know what to do again. Hopefully we can start the second like we did the start.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

they’ve always seemed a good team football wise whenever I’ve seen them - I’ve never understood why they struggle but they leave big holes in midfield and are poor defensively

They’re being made to look like a Pele tribute act today. It’s genuinely like we took the lead and assumed job done

 

[David O'Day]

Fair. Still just saw Wilson fail to catch the ball and it come off Semenyos head. Can players not touch the goalkeeper now then?

You can't just jump into them

Would be funny if not realistic.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Thank God for half time!

So, general thoughts.

Doyle and Panzo both disasters. Panzo's forgotten how to pass, head or tackle, Doyle's positioning all over the place. As an aside when Doyle goes bad, he doubles down and makes sure he's proper bad! Youth? Inexperience?

Waghorn and Palmer both started well but faded. And on that note... how on earth did we do so well until we scored, then decided to stop bothering to play?!?

Has Kane been on the pitch?

 

[The Philosopher]

I used to think Waghorn was pointless. Still do.

We are short in midfield and need to get Matty James to swap sides at half time. They can have Waghorn.

How much we paying Waghorn? How much is James on? We signed the wrong player when we had the chance.

 

[Evo1883]

We will be better second half

 

[Nick]

What? You literally can't run into them not even looking at the ball, no.

 

[shmmeee]

Three or four times Vik has been available for the early release and Wilson has fucked it. That’s why people are getting frustrated. That and the back three keep playing themselves into trouble.

 

[steve101]

Both Panzo and Doyle are so shaky. Waghorn has offered very little. Think we need to get another in midfield - Sheaf for Waghorn hopefully.

 

[Paxman II]

Midfield needs Sheaf. Allen not effective. Boy we miss Faz today. Panzo needs to get his head together quickly. Sort it Robin's. Bristol are not good, we are making them look good as we did Cardiff. They need a bollicking in that dressing room for once.

 

[Esoterica]

Sheaf rested, got a knock or protected because of his 9 yellows?

 

[Covkid1968#]

Panzo must have been on the sesh last night

 

[Johnnythespider]

If we're playing Waghorn and Vik we should stop.tryiing to play through the press and go over the top

 

[Seymour_East]

Ouch....how we can drop off is frightning

 

[Nick]

The negativeness comes from the negative aproach we took after scoring.

 

[OldBedrocker]

Gyokeres not at the races today looks like a man protecting against injury

 

[South Of The River]

HNY Cov fans

Seems like we ended the half better there. To be fair we’re not a side that should where we are, we’ve not had a lot of luck with injuries/decisions etc

Of course the table doesn’t lie, but we’re not too bad on the eye most of the time. We just fail to get the result over the line in games frustratingly…

I was surprised to see Waghorn start for you and Sheaf dropped?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Gonna be no changes at half time. Robins to make 2 changes on 65 minutes but only because Panzo has been sent off on 62. Bristol winner on 76 minutes. Tavares in on 83.

Carry on like this it’ll be a humiliation long before then. We just desperately need some signings

 

[jordan210]

need some control in the midfield. Allen not good enough and palmer gone anonymous after the goal

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Tavares will come on 90+2 to score with seconds left

 

[OldBedrocker]

No issue with throwing it short it’s when he throws it to Panzo with a man on his toes
