Yeah, I thought Eccles was good too. Just that one occasion where he had the ball taken off him and we could have been in trouble. Other than that, I thought he had a more than decent gameSurprised there hasn’t been some more positive comments about Eccles. I thought he was good. Can be a bit lightweight in some challenges so would like to see him put a bit of weight/muscle on but keeps things ticking over well, shielded defence and pinged a couple of great balls (think there was one to Vik around 70th min).
Hamer MoTM. Wilson made a couple of smart saves. Decent away performance especially considering our midfield injuries
Both may have tearsWasn’t it palmer with a hamstring tear??
4-8 weeks possibly more for those injuries. We might see them back for the last 2-3 games. McGuire will need to step up now, or we change formation.Both may have tears
What did Vik do last night?He contributed very little and represented no threat to their defence.
He has no future above L2 level.
Cuffy also had a good game against Millwall, but a hard away game may not be his gig right now. We do not know what our contractual obligations are to loanees when they are not automatic first teamers like DoyleHe had a good game against Sunderland, not so much tonight.
Oh, that was a tear too.Wasn’t it palmer with a hamstring tear??
He would if he wasn't injured.Oh, that was a tear too.
Robins is going to put Kelly in, isn’t he.
Wilson 7 assured
McNally 7 physical
Fadz 7 solid
Doyle 7 accomplished
Bidwell 6 stay in your own half
Cuffy 6 some decent crosses
Eccles 6 finding his feet
Hamer 8 driving force
Allen 6 in and out
Godden 5 poor
Vik 5 knackered
esbrand 6 there’s a player in there
Walker 5 shite
Burroughs 6
Rose 6
If there's a player in Esbrand, he's doing a good job of hiding it.
Walker was ok when he came on actually
He contributed very little and represented no threat to their defence.
He has no future above L2 level.
We never had any offsides last night...The people who started the “20 goals” chant for Walker (including the ref to offside) were right up there with Henry Kissinger winning the Nobel peace prize in terms of irony. Any player replacing Godden is going to be offside less than Godden.
What was it aboutJake Bidwell randomly giving an interview on Sky right now
Interestingly, the PNE commentators thought their player who had already been booked should have had another yellow when Vik turned him on the wing and was brought down. The ref never even gave a foul. I can understand why Vik got booked. Their centre backs were absolutely shagged out near the end which was when we started getting half-chances. Unfortunately, the chances fell to Bidwell and Esbrand who snatched at their chances. Vik made the Bidwell one and his presence created the space for the other. Arguably, Viks quietest game for a while but they left two men on him all the time, which gave Allen space in the first half and the rest of our midfield should have dome better in the second. Young Prem lads take a while to adjust. Maa and Doyle had games under their belt when they came to us. Cuffy a bit with Rotherham which is why he looks more accomplished than Esbrand. Think the latter is finding the physicality quite a challenge.What did Vik do last night?
Mortgage interest ratesWhat was it about
You are so very negative mate chill outHamer was stand out for us,
Eccles was ok dawdling on the ball a couple of times but he done ok,
Doyle started a little bit dodgy but settled down nicely, strange he was taken off especially for
Mcnally gets better and better,
Fadz got caught a couple of time so not as soloid as usual but we kept a clean sheet,
Bidwell ok I guess but not great, his final ball is generally rubbish and that shot hmmm,
Cuffey, don't really rate him from what Ive seen alwasy seems to be caught in 2 minds and listens to the wrong one,
Wilson kicking is utter utter shite and his throwing isn't much better, gave the ball away a few times on his distribution but a couple of decent saves,
Allen, lost the ball a few times by being knocked off it but a little better than of late, terrible attempts at goal but strangely we miss him because we are now down to bare bones,
Godden was utter shite,
Gyokeres got bullied all night and spent most of the time moaning about it
Rose who does daydream a lot and lose his man but he done ok when he came on,
Walker came on and drew a few fouls but other than that, that was it
Burroughs should start instead of Cuffey, in his cameo appearance he showed more than Cuffey has and put a decent ball into the box, certainly got more about him than our 'star from Arsenal
Esbrand started a little poor but he showed a few nice touches playing in midfield
Maquire....what is the feckin point in him???? we don't know if he's any good or not, he surely can't be as bad as Godden is atm but maybe he can run more
They were there for the taking but nobody produced enough quality for us to take them, a draw a fair result in the end
Thanks for the advice, do you do lessons?You are so very negative mate chill out
What's his level then?Nonsense
His goalscoring record at league 1 with Lincoln however was better than Godden. He was top scorer in his first season with us. The lad gets unbelievable criticism despite not having been given a fair crack here for the last couple of years.What's his level then?
He was a huge flop on loan at L1 Portsmouth, regarded as one of the worst loan signings ever.
Spot on. He is absolute quality at this level.McNally MOM for me.
No 1 target for MR to sign permanently for next season
McNally and McFadz are very solid and main reason for clean sheets.
He only played about 500 minutes of 1st team football all season if that. Those who played the most will be in excess of 4000 minutes.Maybe he’s doing the right thing with Burroughs and enduring he doesn’t get fatigued
Nah, just not good enough for me. I've wanted to like him but I just don't see anything to scare Championship defenders. What is he really good at?His goalscoring record at league 1 with Lincoln however was better than Godden. He was top scorer in his first season with us. The lad gets unbelievable criticism despite not having been given a fair crack here for the last couple of years.
Sorry mate probably overreactedThanks for the advice, do you do lessons?
Apology accepted..we are all in this together but have different ideas about playersSorry mate probably overreacted
MR in his full pre match interview seemed to allude that many players (not just us) are getting injured for some unknown reason.Both may have tears
