[Esoterica]

Ref has been a bit generous with his yellows. Rochdale could have had double the amount they have.

2 more assists than JCH in nowhere near as many minutes on the pitch.

It actually shows how stupid an assist can be. If a defender bangs the ball 50 yards it’s an assist if the recepient scores even if he has significant work to do

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Need a second goal now, don't want to be hanging on again.

Lol have only led by 2 goals twice all season

 

[Johhny Blue]

Thomas shoots....

Anybody want to guess what happened?

ooooohhhh?

 

[Gazolba]

Bakayoko shoots, it has power but its well wide.

We can shoot accurately and with power, but never both at the same time.

This one was him flicking the ball on into the path of Hiwula
The other one was squaring it to somebody in a better position

 

[Paxman II]

We have been poor today yet we may get a win. ut it may be the win we needed to get our confidence going.

 

[Nick]

Good ball from Kelly through to Thomas, does well even after slipping and forces a save from the keeper. Good one handed save in the bottom corner.

Wonder if there’s a confidence Glicko for measuring that

 

[Nick]

Bright tries 5 too many touches again on the edge of their box.

Don’t agree. “So far” they have had one shot on target haven’t they ?”

 

[Captain Dart]

City still putting 'dale under pressure.. fingers crossed..

Yes, assists are stupid. Hahaha, jokes!

 

[Nick]

Poor final ball from Mason.

Hiwula and Baka both in the box.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Kelly has been excellent

 

[Nick]

I really hope the ball bobbled from that shot from Bright.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Don’t agree. “So far” they have had one shot on target haven’t they ?”

That's normal. The difference is we won't lose 1-0 today

 

[Nick]

Kelly has been excellent

That touch and turn when he just got it was very good!

Won a free kick to take the pressure off too.

 

[Nick]

Tom Davies coming on?

 

[Johhny Blue]

Poor final ball from Mason.

Hiwula and Baka both in the box.

At the same time? WTF

 

[ccfcway]

Exactly. Shows how close we are to building something

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

1-0, even Jordy scored 1-0, even Jordy scored...

 

[Captain Dart]

Robins trying to park the bus now?

 

[Nick]

At the same time? WTF

Madness isn't it.

 

[Esoterica]

Kelly has been excellent

Have no idea why there's some fans who seem to dislike him. Always passes forward IF the option is there and gets box to box. Head and shoulders over Doyle's contributions this season. Intercepts, anticpates, tackles and makes himself available. Everything I want from a DM.

 

[Captain Dart]

5 mins ET... eek.

 

[Nick]

5 added on

Stockdale takes the ball out of the air and has a lie down.

Just taking stock

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

I would be delighted going up a league not be in a relegation fight , so far we are not and quite happy .

 

[Grendel]

Yes, assists are stupid. Hahaha, jokes!

They are pointless. You could set Chaplin up 10 times and he misses all of them and then another player sets him up and he actually scored and second player is deemed the best to assist a goal

 

[Nick]

Bakayoko does well and outpaces their defender, has no options so tries a shot from a tight angle and wins a corner.

 

[Johhny Blue]

5 mins ET... eek.

It's OK. Nothing ever happens in added time

 

[lifeskyblue]

Always love it when a keeper does this (well only if he plays for CCFC and we are one up in injury time).

The time wasting game is decent as well. 2 loanees Sterling and Thomas both at it.
