McDonald has the weakest shot header ever then.

Nick · Feb 24, 2018

We pass it around a bit, then just hoof it up front.

JCH is now on his own, so it's pointless.

Johnnythespider · Feb 24, 2018

Just got in, a word of advice, don't listen to the city whilst driving. Willis you twat

Haynes conceded a needless corner after Burge stands still

Doyle lets him know it should have been his ball

Nick · Feb 24, 2018

We are sitting so deep now. The 2 banks of 4 aren't even past the halfway of our half waiting for them to come at us.

And they nearly score from it.

Ref might get lulled into evening up the numbers. Just got to stay in this till half time.

Go 3 at the back and be brave

I think we have to, Wycombe 2 down, Crawley 2 down, Swindon losing. Go for it city

Nick · Feb 24, 2018

We either need to change the long ball to JCH or make sure when we do it there are plenty in support of him. It's aimless, we have just put him there instead of Biamou.

Esoterica · Feb 24, 2018

Hope Reid comes on in the 2nd half. He and Bayliss will be important for carrying the ball when we're countering. I don't know why we're panicking and hammering it long, it's just putting the pressure straight back on us. We're good enough to keep the ball.

We aren't going to win a war of attrition, just go 3 at the back and at least have a crack.

Was always going to play for it. Willis should have known that though.

As should the ref. Booking would have been sufficient, he wasn't scoring as Burge had it covered.

The club must actually be cursed, nobody has this much bad luck so consistently.

Nick · Feb 24, 2018

Why is he unable to change the shape? Why is McNulty now playing on the right? Why does it take putting players out of position rather than thinking outside the box?

It will get to about 70 and he will bring Reid on or something.

Which is what we have been saying now for a number of weeks.

You can't expect a striker to score when he has zero chances to score.

Paxman II · Feb 24, 2018

There is a left or right turn ahead. We must pick the right one or our season is effectively imploding. Stand up now and be counted.
if you are smart we can still do this with 10 men and think how that will do the confidence. We must not simply capitulate here...

Nick · Feb 24, 2018

We try long aimless hoof, it comes back to their player who puts a good ball across goal but nobody there.
McNulty is now effectively pointless.

That was always the danger. Same tactics different personnel.

We won't do anything while we try to defend the 1-0.

McNulty forced a corner out of Logan

Sick Boy · Feb 24, 2018

With Wycombe away coming up we really need to get a win here.

Good try but again as JCH had dropped deep to get the ball there was nobody there to pressure the keeper.

Down to 10 men, I would be delighted with a draw.

Before the sending off, people were saying it was different tactics. This is not MRs fault. What he tries to get them to do hereon in, is !

Will do better to avoid a hammering

Now we're blaming tactics. How long before we start blaming JCH. Then he'll really have taken Biamou's place.

sw88 · Feb 24, 2018

Poor corner by us, Doyle loses out for pace on the counter, Burge comes out and blocks the shot with his feet

Nick · Feb 24, 2018

Shipley wins a corner, probably the best he could as we didnt commit anybody other than jCh forward.

Johnnythespider · Feb 24, 2018

Who did Hyam come on for ?

Because nothing changes despite players changing?

I haven't blamed JCH, just said it's all well and good hammering it up to him but he has no support there.

Esoterica · Feb 24, 2018

Plenty of space out there still if we back ourselves to pass it around. If we can get to half time with it still 1-0 there's plenty to play for and Mansfield will get nervous the longer this scoreline stays the same.

City

Wycombe now 3 down

Very good but not very helpful

Kelly.

Ref needs to get a hold of their time wasting too.
