He's on another planet.

That's not possible

 

[SkyBlueAussie]

Need a bollocking at half time.

Not quite clicking today...

They will do. We're at the top with them.

 

[clint van damme]

On fire since the new year you fucker!

 

[Nick]

It's been boring

you know what i mean lol

 

[Grendel]

Started well and faded fast - Bakayoko is so frustrating - early goal and dominating their defenders for 15 minutes then nothing

Midfield look casual

Need to regroup at half time

 

[mark82]

Fingers crossed for a decent second half. Worth involving Giles to add some pace and see what he can do (not necessarily now, maybe on about 60)?

 

[BornSlippySkyBlue]

Definitely look a bit weary today. Hopefully a quick coffee at half-time and a kick up the arse off the messiah, and good to go.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Following same pattern as the MK Dons game and will end up with the same result if we don't put these crap teams to bed. Fortunate to still be ahead

Birmingham won 3-1 last night.

No excuses.

They are a big physical team. McCallum v their right back is a mismatch. We need to play smarter and get a foot on the ball in midfield.

Nah could have scored again they’ve had one opening

 

[stevefloyd]

Ohare losing the ball a lot Walsh still class, Kelly quiet Allen seems subdued Baka not seeing a lot of the ball in the right areas. Defence balls forward hit and miss but hey we are in front lets hope ws step it up in the 2nd half

 

[Philosoraptor]

That was a decent header.

Yeah, crying out for something. Be interesting to see what he’s got.

First 10mins looked unstoppable. After that over complicated things going forward; simple balls on a few occasions and players would have been in. In fairness Bolton had one great chance. Robins won’t be happy with the last 30odd mins. Won’t be surprised to see all subs on by 60th Min.
Baka won everything initially...scored goal ...then went missing for last 20mins.

Been pretty poor in possession for the most part, perhaps we just expected Bolton to fold?

 

[Paxman II]

Frustrating period. Bolton have something aboutthem but you can see how easily we should be dominating the game. Baka just not making the runs Goddenmakes or even Max.
Kelly quiet. We appear a tad bit cocky and therefore not putting in the effort or drive needed. No game is a given and we must come out and put them to the sword. They know they are going downso play with freedom and nothing to lose. Must be careful this is not a banana skin.

Bit leftfield but think I'd sacrifice Allen for Hiwula as first sub. Their oafs at the back will hate his pace and think we're carrying the ball too much today with Allen and O'Hare's dribbling. Need to pass and move a bit more and leave their donkeys chasing their own tails.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Yeah but it's taken a cracking save to keep it at 1-0.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Fairly average performance so far, but got that goal which is important. They look a poor side but we keep over playing it in their final third. Dabo is having one of the worst games I’ve seen him have, he’s barely done a thing right since he put the cross in for the goal. O’Hare probably our best player so far. Rose another one having a poor outing, maybe not fully fit?

Hopefully Robins has got them fired up at HT as we could do with an early goal to pit this to bed.

More an observation than an excuse. Just not our usual lively selves.

Completely agree

He's changed half the side to be fair

 

[Johhny Blue]

Hands up everyone that said they'd be happy with 1-0. You know who you are.

could you get any more cliches in one post?

 

[Danceswithhorses]

see ponti scored for wrexham today...good for him

 

[Esoterica]

Completely agree

Well I hope he tells them that wasn't an acceptable level of intensity at half time and gives them 10 minutes to improve but that performance was too hungover considering we brought 5 players in.

It's a marathon not a sprint and/or we should take every game as it comes?
