That was poor. Thomas's passing is a real concern.

Just switched Masterchef on Grendel, who’s looking best

 

[mark82]

Bring MVE on for Thomas, try Lati at CB.

 

[BlueSkiesForever]

I genuinely thought he looked good on the ball last season, absolutely fucking diabolical in the 130 minutes so far this season.

It is very odd how he suddenly keeps giving the ball away, whereas last season he looked like our best defender, not sure what’s gone on with him.

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

This is about as exciting as the commentator is making it sound.
Borefest

 

[slyblue57]

Not a single shot on target this half.

again

 

[hill83]

Footballing masterclass that was. This is what football is all about. In actual tears. Beautiful stuff.

 

[Jamesimus]

Bobby Thomas can pass the ball well, it’s mainly just the passes he chooses to make are often quite mad.

 

[Evo1883]

Bit concerning we've managed 1 shot on target in 135 minutes

 

[shmmeee]

The worry is, it's not even our reserves to be fair.

Not even as if it's all the kids playing. There's a fair few million in signings on the pitch for us.

If we get a CM and a CB arguably only Wright, who is basically still in his preseason, is first team here. I’m more worried by Stoke than this, ultimately we’ve got rid of the tactical nous of the coaching staff and the new coaches are yet to prove themselves.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Bobby Thomas is a typical lower league clogger

 

[clint van damme]

Bring MVE on for Thomas, try Lati at CB.

Pleased don't.

 

[Macca]

I’m not having anyone say this is anywhere near ok

Yes god help us in an injury crisis. Not convinced by the so called squad depth

 

[Johnnythespider]

Only player I've seen trying to press is Asante, forwards need to work harder to stop opponents playing out so easily

 

[Skyblue Bangkok]

Forgot about that. Not ideal.

Watching via the Sky red button , you can hardly hear the crowd. Maybe they are too bored already.

 

[Nick]

Bring MVE on for Thomas, try Lati at CB.

Rather put Simms there

 

[mark82]

It is very odd how he suddenly keeps giving the ball away, whereas last season he looked like our best defender, not sure what’s gone on with him.

Need to give him chance, but at this rate he'll need to play his way back in.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

We always put everything on a missing player coming back. It won't make that much difference, even Saint Sheaf.
I'm not sure Robins is a great motivator. He's an organiser.

Sheaf makes a great difference to our midfield - and tonight our right hand side consists of Lati and Tavares, which is unlikely to be effective as an attacking threat - was hoping Tavares would try and grasp his opportunity.

 

[Skybluekyle]

I paid £15 to watch this game. I've well and truly been mugged off

 

[shepardo01]

Turgid.

Nah, too old. Was rubbish when he played for us first time around!...

 

[Jamesimus]

So far better than Stoke, but pretty dull and uninspiring from us. Bristol been better team.

 

[hill83]

I won’t be going that far. It’s still early days. But it’s still shite.

 

[mark82]

Don't think there's any crowd there. Ground looks pretty empty.

 

[Nick]

Let's face it, sakamoto didn't do much.

Is it the system?

 

[PVA]

Torp, Kitching and Wilson doing alright, the rest pretty poor and/or quiet.

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Not great. Palmer and Tavares been poor. Thomas passing the ball to them again. Torp a few nice passes but lightweight. Asante isolated. Eccles and Wright decentish.

 

[HuckerbysQuiff]

Such a poor first half, not a lot to take from that at all, other than we need to get Haji on ball more often & run at them.

Wouldn’t mind seeing Simms & BTA up top or BTA out on right with Simms. That said Robins won’t change anything until 65mins or until after they’ve scored.

 

[Jamesimus]

Same. Wondering if I should just go to sleep instead of watching the second half. Or use the second half as a sleeping aid…

 

[Mr Panda]

No shots but I don't think it was THAT bad. We all know what Bobby Thomas can be, a couple of games worth of bad passes doesn't take that away.

Clean it up and tweak it a little and lets see what the second half has in store

 

[covcity4life]

Not been good. We have to start playing like a team that wants to win desperately rather than just make up the numbers

 

[Tea & Busquets]

Palmer and Lati need to go if possible. Bring in a progressive CM, a DM, Conor Coady on loan, and a RB. Fucking hell we look shite with rotation.

 

[Macca]

Footballing masterclass that was. This is what football is all about. In actual tears. Beautiful stuff.

Going for Autos innit

 

[Cobi Jones's Dreads]

Jesus Christ what a sluggish half to put it nicely! It reminds me so much of Southgate’s England it’s frightening, no energy, no forward play… totally turgid.

 

[Tommo1993]

Big fan of Thomas, but fuck me, his passing…

Latibeaudiere is just no good anywhere.

Palmer is playing like he’s a world class player just doing us a favour. Ineffective as ever. Always said it, luxury signing.

Torp has looked for Tavares occasionally but otherwise he’s generally ignored.

Wright hasn’t been in the game.

 

[itsabuzzard]

Turgid.

Good word, much under-used.
