Hope we never have to play in front of their fans again, EVER.

Where’s Stupot with his expert analysis?

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Anyone know when the first Europa League game will be?

Aah someone else who is eyeing up that trip to Latvia in a Thursday night

I’m fairly sure no one hates the players. But it’s valid to have an opinion on their ability. Having said that I don’t think you can get too critical off the back of a 4-1. The games v Wednesday actually demonstrate the gulf we have between lower end teams - that’s huge progress.

It’s fine to have an opinion on a player that’s what makes us fans . What isn’t fine is then to not give praise when they play well , or too constantly criticise their every touch .
Opinions are their to be changed

I can honestly say I've never disliked a player in Sky Blue. That sounds weird to me. Get behind the team. That's not directed at you tom btw.

Some have frustrated me, but I have always tried to get behind them on the pitch.

I have always liked Kasey Palmer. It's clear he can be frustrating, but he does have it all in his locker doesn't he.

If he could put it altogether constantly, he probably would be playing at a higher level, but he will always do the odd infuriating thing, because that's the type of player he is.

I think he's a player for certain games and certain situations. Not the first name down on the team sheet, but a valuable member of the squad.

He does have the ability to take a game by the scruff of the neck at times.

Be great if we could just get that bit more consistency from him.

 

[Gint11]

Honestly, we should be spanking Maidstone. We’ve whalloped Oxford (League 1) and just whalloped Sheff W!

 

[Macca]

Great result in awful conditions. Special mention to Da Silva back to looking like the player he was start of season. Also I bloody love KP. Frustrating sometimes but just has that something. Binks is a class act

Wright was better than a 7. Watch his movement off the ball, it’s very good

 

[covboy9]

Anyone a bit nervous about Maidstone?

Ah, but these days it's high definition colour radio

 

[Astute]

Palmer is a match winner. He won’t do it every game, if he did he wouldn’t be playing for us. That’s the championship…consistently inconsistent!

Palmer is nearly always better than some would lead you to believe. Wright is just back from injury but is supposed to just get back 100%. Dasilva is shite because he isn't tall.

Just support the lads. Don't look for a boo boy.

Eye, Phones m8

 

[Domo]

He was unreal

all reports sounds positive, keen to see him play

 

[Hobo]

His cross for Wright's goal was an absolute peach

I totally agree and I have criticised him for being too safe in forward positions and not putting crosses in. But that was a great cross!

 

[Wyken Sky Blue]

Anyone a bit nervous about Maidstone?

Absolutely, it's the FA cup and anything can happen

In reality though, we should be thumping them by at least 5 goals

Playing non league teams in cup games is always nervy. Maidstone have literally nothing to lose.

Yes. All the Maidstone fans (And players)

We won. Crap players played well. Won't get one.

The Canadian?

Agreed, that's why he gets into better goalscoring positions than most players in his position

Not at all. They’ve spaffed all their luck against Ipswich. They’re done.

Agreed, 5 goal minimum.

Hope they make Maidstone the same price. Pack the place out. P*ss on their dreams on live TV with loads of noise.

That's a bit mean - but I completely agree, we have had more than our fair share of F.A. cup f&*k-ups, not this time please!

I’m fairly sure no one hates the players. But it’s valid to have an opinion on their ability. Having said that I don’t think you can get too critical off the back of a 4-1. The games v Wednesday actually demonstrate the gulf we have between lower end teams - that’s huge progress.

Yes it's valid to have an opinion but it's how that opinion gets expressed. I imagine there are people in your workplace who's performance you find underwhelming but you don't scream obscenities at them and then go and post shit on their social media. If you did your employer would sack you and rightly so.

Obviously when I say you, I don't mean "you" specifically

 

[David O'Day]

I'll enjoy ruining Maidstone
