Just what did they get up to on their 3 days off

Went on the lash in Benidorm by the looks of them

Leaving at HT is unforgivable. Don’t come back

Dramatic much?

 

[Astute]

It didn’t come from high pressing.

High press and sloppy defending.

Certainly looking better now.

 

[Jamesimus]

well the answer is because Kelly is not up to the standard required

Lati is a defensive midfielder, at best, he won’t do any fancy midfield work but he will (and does) sit and break play up, the problem is he needs a decent midfielder along side him and unfortunately Eccles isn’t it - positioning poor, passing poor (tonight at least) it doesn’t help when you’ve got someone playing out of position to have someone who isn’t able to understand and back that up

Our midfield tonight might as well not be there

I think we seemed to give up the play off fight when we didn’t look to strengthen the squad in January, and then Robins almost seemingly to emphasise that point started fucking about with the team and particularly the back five who looked settled and strong (albeit Kitching’s red card didn’t help).

So essentially you’re putting Latis deficiencies and making them Eccles fault?

High press and sloppy defending.

Because it’s game over and the opposition have declared.

 

[Nick]

Should have played wright in then

 

[skyblu3sk]

Why does Eccles play the ball behind the player making him check back.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Left at half time

To a man that was abysmal

I never want to see Dasilva or Wilson play for us again

Tats out for the season with that it seems season over. We need to plan for next season now

 

[Otis]

We have to face facts. You let stupid goals in like we have tonight and it's hard to beat anyone, don't care who it is.

It's like a handout and you just make your task almost impossible to retrieve.

 

[sw88]

Get a corner and it's completely wasted

And repeat……

 

[procdoc]

None of their goals came through their high press.
First goal from a cross that Wilson should have come and claimed
Second goal from an individual error
Third goal from a counter attack

 

[Cov98]

That ball had to go Wright

 

[Nick]

Why hasn't he told Eccles to get off corners or does he have no say over that either?

 

[Tommo1993]

Eccles couldn’t cross his fingers.

 

[MikeyMoo]

Fist away with Oggy, Fist Away, Fist Away

He doesn't like it when goalkeepers fist away apparently.

 

[Astute]

They're still attacking. But you wouldn't know that

 

[jordan210]

Eccles is dog shite

 

[skyblu3sk]

Arghhhhhhhhh beat the first fucking player!!!

 

[Tommo1993]

Punishable by death!

Looked like broken ribs

 

[Nick]

Thomas telling Wilson to come for the pass back and he just stood there

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Just what did they get up to on their 3 days off

Yeah but they needed a rest.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

They're still attacking. But you wouldn't know that

Nor did our defence first half

 

[fernandopartridge]

Thomas looking like an accident waiting to happen when he faces his own goal

What a joke. Lino gives a free kick

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

We won’t score 1 let alone 3

Lots of players forward but nothing to do with a high press?

I give up.

 

[Cov98]

Lino gives a free kick for the melt doing a flip flap

 

[skyblu3sk]

That dive was absolutely shocking

 

[procdoc]

It’s ok. We will bring Godden on in a bit to really trouble their defence

 

[jordan210]

Why are we not leaving any one up

 

[stupot07]

20 minutes of the second half 3-0 down and we have had 1 shot, Milan's long ranger.

Glad I’ve chosen the mighty Maidstone for my live fix this weekend ?! £30 each for this shite ….nah !
2-3 would be a result now.

 

[Nick]

O'Hare thinks he's in the premier league already

 

[OldBedrocker]

They’re 3-0 up if we get a corner they leave a player up. They get one we still drag every fucker back. It’s mental
