Does anyone know how many set piece goals we scored last season? I can only remember 2 Westbrooke v Oxford direct FK and Rose v Rochdale from a corner

This season already scored 5 (though one is when Dabo had a shot parried)

He's good but no Dennis wise

Great comparison though.

Wise was good at 23 at Wimbledon, but not as good as Hamer is at same age. Don’t think Wise would have tried that shot from halfway line or scored as many from outside the box.

Ostigard being a beast in the air combined with Hamer's quality of delivery has made it more interesting when we get a few of those.

He was part of an FA Cup winning team when he was 21 wasn’t he?

Hyam vs Gillingham. Direct from Westbrook corner.

Yup part of that great crazy gang team.

Dave Beasant had a funny story about Wisey when they collected the trophy

This statement is embarrassing wise was a much better player and achieved more at that age!

Yup I agree he achieved more in great team. At the moment does seem embarrassing, I'm allowed an opinion to say I think Hamer is a better player certainly in terms for an eye for goal at the same age. My opinion.

Let's talk Wilson twatting their player after the pen. Iffy

Wasn’t really necessary to role over 9 times though

Are we counting Rose’s goal away at Pompey from McCallum’s long throw?

 

[larry_david]

From an ainsworth team I expected at least 12 rolls. And then him to get up and just launch the ball 60 foot into the air out of habit

No idea what you’re on about

He was acting.

See what I did there?

Hyam got one from a corner early season I think

 

[covcity4life]

Dabo of last season could have my babies, but if he's not fully fit then why play him if he don't absolutely need to do so?

Because he's still brilliant?

 

[skyblueeyesrevisited]

Dabo, Maddison, Wise, Kelly and Dann come to mind. Hamer is a fine player and will be a great asset but I am not sure he is the best player as yet.

Wilson?

Didn’t Hyam get another one at Sunderland?

 

[shmmeee]

Hamer is the best player we have had since we left the Premier League.

Maddison? Wilson?

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Would you genuinely argue with those two being sub-standard?

I would add McCallum in who has been very poor in my opinion for a few games. I also think Walker should be doing better, regardless of this 'isolation' people talk about.

The rest of the team I'm very impressed with though. Dabo is doing really well despite the fact he was coming back from injury and a bit out of form it seems. He's played through that. Got to give credit to Biamou as well. I felt, particularly today, that he showed a few players up with his grit and determination.

Personally I think Walker and McCallum have been pretty good for us but I didnt watch the game so I don’t know how the players played apart from Kelly because he got 2 goals

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Not too worried about Forest and Sheffield W. right now. I’m watching teams like Brum, Preston & Millwall

Long old season, Forest, Derby and possibly Wednesday will try and buy their way out of trouble in January if at all possible, so I want as big a gap as possible before any of them strengthen. That said, it will be hard for the likes of Sheff Wed to recruit strongly when they're bottom of the league.

 

[larry_david]

So far we've had two 'biggest games of the season' - effectively against the teams that came up with us. We've won both. This is good. I'd argue the next is sheff wed. If we keep taking points off the teams below us, objective achieved

 

[Sick Boy]

I’m a bit more optimistic, Sheff Wednesday and Preston away are both winnable. PNE’s home record has been shocking.

Our home record has been decent, so I’m hoping we can pick up points against Huddersfield and Stoke.

Our defensive record has also drastically improved too, we’ve only conceded 1 goal from open play in the last 7 games. Massive turn around.

And they’d look at our away form and say it’s shite.

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

And they’d look at our away form and say it’s shite.

They're 20th in the home table and we're 20th in the away one. Frankly, our away form flatters to deceive a little bit because we have played a few of the top teams away.

That, and we're now 4rd in the form table and only conceded 1 goal in 7 games from open play. We're in a position to push up the table for the New Year.

(EDIT: 4rd because we're joint 4th in the form table...)

4rd? What black magic is this?

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

4rd? What black magic is this?

We're joint 3rd, so I originally typed '3rd' but forgot to change 'rd' to 'th' for 4th...

I'm pretty sure I referred to Godden as Gooden for months because autocorrect on my phone recognises Gooden as an actual word... Oops.

[Sky Blue Harry H]

My one concern about the Sheffield Wednesday game is the fact that they will benefit from the extra day's rest this time (i.e. play Forest on the Tuesday) One good thing about that game is that it will feel like a can't lose for both teams, and I wouldn't be surprised to see a red card or two dished out. Draw would be a good result for us (or a Wednesday loss). Injuries and cards galore please.

As a side note, injuries seem to be kicking in a lot around in the leagues. Some clubs will be desperate to get bodies in during the window. I reckon we'll recall Eccles (and possibly Drysdale)

Oh my god - is the guy back looking to fund another flag!

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Im crying laughing at Kashket shushing us after the disallowed goal.

 

[robbiethemole]

quite a fair assessment of the game from one of their fans, unlike most others, :-

However, it also has to be said the ref did award us a soft pen and, if truth be told, it didn't look like we would get back into the game at that point otherwise.


Coventry seemed to be managing the two game lead well, and only let us back into the game in the final 20 mins when they struggled to deal with Bayo and Wheeler in the air. They really impress me every time we play them in fact. Extremely well organised, difficult to score against, and seem to know precisely how to turn the dial at the right moment to convert a short spell of pressure into a goal. A very efficient team that appear very well coached from a tactical perspective.

Can’t argue with that

Can't be right, Robins is "brainless" according to our own fans.
