Makes Saturdays showing all the more bizarre IMO
Something odd about Saturday IMO.

[oucho]

Good effort though lads, like the second half at Oxford the panic has been shored up and we've got some pride and fight back in our game.

 

[chiefdave]

Well better than the weekend I suppose, although that isn't saying much. Desperately need a win on Saturday.

 

[Johnnythespider]

One silly mistake and an inability to make all that pressure tell, we have to make domination like that second half count

 

[ccfcway]

These are my bets tonight....

Bolton 5/6
Bolton -2 Handicap 5/1
Over 2 goals 5/6
Over 3 goals 2/1
Over 4 goals 9/2
Bolton to score 4+ goals 17/2
Bolton to score 5+ goals 28/1
Bolton win both half's 10/3
And..........
Draw 9/2
Cov win 10/1

1-0 has to be a bad nights work ?

 

[lifeskyblue]

Thanks again to all those who have kept us informed tonight. Safe journey home

Beans on toast for Astute for the foreseeable.

 

[Gazolba]

It takes real talent to have 17 shots and not score one goal. Charlton had eight shots and scored FIVE.

 

[ccfcway]

in desperate need of a striker aren't we

 

[oucho]

10 points off the play-offs, 1 point/place off above drop zone. Not how we saw things going in August.

Haha, Tiger Woods Golf?

 

[Paul Anthony]

At least it seems from reading this that it was a better performance. We really need someone up there who can put chances away more regularly than what we currently have though. We just don't take enough of the chances that we do create.

7 not enough for you?

Still, we're got 4 points from the last 5 league games so something's gone awry again

 

[fernandopartridge]

Deserved a point. Venus not the answer, like I said the other day you can't win games by only playing second half.

 

[ccfc92]

Haha, Tiger Woods Golf?

No, Happy Gilmore

Better second half and looked more lively after the first two subs.

Just can't finish!

First half we were playing wing backs who weren't playing on the wing offensively or defensively and the CM'a weren't playing centrally so the gaps we allowed Bolton to move within was unreal!

Appeared to tighten up second half and restricted Bolton but Burge was still kept busy

Reid's shooting was woeful. Think some of his shots are still in the air!

Bolton caused themselves more problems at the back than we did until late on in the game.

I'd have taken a 1-0 before the game but we should perhaps have earned a draw at least with the chances we had in the second half and how we proved that Bolton were vulnerable st the back.

 

[ccfcway]

yet another game where we turn up in 2nd half but its too late

 

[ccfcway]

I'd have taken a 1-0 before the game .

taken a loss

 

[oucho]

Rumour has it this guys on trial

The Serbian 4th tier? They get better crowds than us from the look of that!

Still at least unlike the famous Noel Hickey miss he didn't fall over his own feet in the process

 

[ccfcway]

cwr "if the worst happens and we end in league 2, where are we going ?"

 

[ccfcway]

Juggy "we should have got something from the game. Bolton were struggling at the end"

At least it seems from reading this that it was a better performance. We really need someone up there who can put chances away more regularly than what we currently have though. We just don't take enough of the chances that we do create.

We need a manager who can pick a team.

Juggy "We are a million miles from the team of last season"

 

[Ibby]

Sky blues are doomed , look at the league table :wtf:

 

[ccfcway]

Alex on CWR "we cant hit the target and I fear the worst. We need an experienced League One striker"

 

[sw88]

taken a loss

After Saturday? Without a doubt. Sign of the times

 

[SkyBlueRuffian]

Juggy "We are a million miles from the team of last season"

Agreed

 

[ccfcway]

Sadly I think MV is about to say something similar. I expect "unlucky tonight, gave it a go, a tough place to come, could have won it in 2nd half, bounced back from sat" etc

Paddy madden was free in the summer. We didn't get him but would have been ideal.

Who else with a return rate like his is likely to be around?

 

[sw88]

We were really hesitant

Lacked believe

Changed the system which gave more impotous

When you lose natural for footballers to drop heads

Playing against top of the table team who have a lot of older heads

Bigi working well on his game. Talented boys

Longer the game went on the boys stood up to the challenge and we pushed them back

More talented individuals came off our bench

Goal came through a miskick

Know we have to get people who can stop those mistakes

Big club with decent team and disappointed we didn't get anything from the game

Last half hour we had more belief (as the game went on)

Pleased we got on the end of a corner (Turnball chance)

Use your luck; can't keep getting misfortune

Sordell and Sterry suspended for Saturday

Bottom line is players have to come in and take opportunity

Pleased with support tonight

Hope we gave them a bit back toward the end

what do you want him to say?

 

[ccfcway]

Guy on CWR now thinks we can get into promotional places

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

what do you want him to say?

I would like him to say here is your new manager ......
