Goal comes from useless kick out from burge, then him being rooted to his line for the cross

[ccfcmad1]

Is it going to be another goal fest?

could be right!

 

[chiefdave]

Should Burge have come for that cross?

 

[sw88]

2-1

Dangerous (but in fairness great) cross into the middle, only their man and Ricketts in the middle, Burge stands on his line (couldn't get any closer to it), their man wins the wafer without a challenge in sight, easy goal

2 that Burge should have atleast tried to claim!

 

[Nick]

Every time he kicks it out we lose possession, it's not hard to see with just fortune up front

 

[sw88]

Should Burge have come for that cross?

Without a doubt

 

[Macca]

Defence is cracking up, solve it soon

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

could be right!

I'm going for 4-3 again, but no idea who to?! At least this should convince them to release the purse strings (you would hope)

Think its more of a case that the players Mowbray wants are hard to get

 

[sw88]

I hope Mowbray doesn't use the 'we had to make a late change and that unsettled us' excuse. Not that he seems the type, but Burges performance so far is indefensible. Whether or not he was the original starting keeper, he has the same warm up every game and there's no defending this

 

[sw88]

Another free header but this one goes over

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Wouldn't mind winning just one cup game this year.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

So who is better Burge or Chris Dunn?

Agree, as he can't play it out short we lose it every time he hoofs it.

 

[Cobi Jones's Dreads]

Burge worse than useless and he defence not giving him much help, need a new defender and fast!

 

[James Smith]

Bollocks get a grip Burge. PUSB

 

[Great_Expectations]

lol if you think Northampton is some sort of grudge match you need help.The relevance it has is you said prices are reduced which isn't true for everyone.


And wait, did you just say Burge is an exceptional goalkeeper :laugh:

We play in L1, have not been in the same league as our "biggest rivals" (Villa) for years, and we are unlikely to be in same league as our closest locational rivals for the foreseeable. Add the above to the points I raised previously and the original post holds true. There is no need to resort to insults - poor form.

Burge is exceptional, are you not watching? Nothing he could do about those goals, not even Neuer could stop those. He is a lot better than RCC, who wants a confident keeper anyway?

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

But could be that if he had a few more ££, he could widen his net. Mind you, winning today would get us more funds!

 

[James Smith]

BBC saying the cobblers have had 2 shots on goal and 2 shots on target both goals.

Sounds like we need to purge the Burge.

 

[Covfather]

Burge is causing our back four problems..

 

[sw88]

Terrible! Long keeper kick, their man chases it until the death, wins possession, holds it up, quick couple of passes and only a last ditch block prevents a 3rd

 

[Nick]

Phillips doesn't like lameres at all does he?

Is it worse than Worcester?

Ball went over the top but he stayed rooted

 

[LeamingtonBasedFan]

Is anyone listening on the radio? What's the story with RCC not playing at the last minute?

 

[Nick]

When we attack we have nobody looking to make a run toward goal with a through ball

 

[Gazolba]

Injured in the warm-up according to CT.

 

[Nick]

Fortune is a waste of a position so far, rather a young lad played

 

[fernandopartridge]

His recent performances are suggesting that he's a waste of a wage. Why not give that Elford a run out?

 

[LeamingtonBasedFan]

Thanks. This is a knightmare, sat at work and not in an environment where I could have a radio on

Your trolling right?

 

[sw88]

Ricketts booked

 

[LeamingtonBasedFan]

Mind you, probably be worse if I was there

 

[sw88]

Absolutely! Either Alliyeu or Sambou would offer us more I reckon (not fact, but extremely likely)
