Brann-red Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Trying to remember when we had such a poor ref before today .. he even got in the way of a move and got them a corner ! Shocking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireSection Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 I think Taylor is having a good game, he really is like a wasp, he's buzzing about. He pushes, pulls and clips players, his energy has been fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxo Jr. Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Just now, Esmond Million's Bung said: Where to start, yes the referee is shocking in fact as bad as i’ve ever seen and their goal should never have been allowed and the free kick for our equaliser was another shocking decision. But FFS after the first 15 minutes we have been embarrassingly poor. Watkins his first touch is appalling, i’m sorry I don’t get him at all. Worst player on the field. Pack is having a mare, summed up by his lazy cross hitting the first defender when in a great position. Kelly started great but totally lost his way for 20 minutes, improved in the last 10 minutes. Eliasson good defensively but crossing has been poor. We looked as though we would pay dearly for faffing around with 2 reasonable chances. We are back in the game, get Watkins off and drop Taylor back into midfield and bring on Diedhiou. Huh? His crossing's been as dangerous as ever imo. One very good one from a corner that could have led to a goal, and one right at the end of the half that went right in the right area from what I recall. The rest is spot on.

And Its Smith Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 I have been a lone voice not rating Maenpaa and that was an awful error. Fielding will be number one. Watkins, Pack and Brownhill been awful. Taylor playing well. Referee clearly loves attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseybean Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 1 minute ago, Northern Red said: A mixture of very promising and worryingly shite. Here’s my slightly longer version of the same comment, although I haven’t seen too much that’s ‘very promising’. My main feeling at half time is relief. We have been sloppy with far too many mistakes and lots of wayward decision-making. There will be lots of comments about the ref I’m sure but we need to be much better in the second half if we are going to get anything out of this. Blackburn are very much up for it and look decent enough without us giving the ball to them +++ and making poor choices when going forward. Hopefully we will put that 45 minutes behind us and play well in the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fat Controller Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Some questions: Why do we not have defenders on the posts at corners? Was Maenpaa fouled for their goal? What game is the referee watching? When will we learn that sometimes the simple ball, or indeed, simple clearance is the best option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Robin Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 1-1 and back in the game. We can win this match, but only with more solidity (sometimes we looked disjointed) and more quality near their area . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilRascal Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 First match of the season for me - Watkins isn’t up to it is he? Packs having a mare. The Ref is doing everything he can to give Blackburn an advantage. But Wiemann is ace - very clever player, and I like the look of our left side - Kelly and Eliasson playing really well. Relieved it’s all square at half time, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prinny Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Watkins was even getting frustrated with himself. Might be fitness or mental. With no others CMs fit we can't really put Brownhill there. Pack's been bad too! Do we turn to, "LJ 2.0" Liam Walsh??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunt also had a good shoot, it could have been goal there. Anyway good that Brownhill scored. The ref is a joke. We got the fk, wrong call. Their defender did not tuch Taylor. Think we will play better second. The defence worries me. COYR!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EstoniaTallinnRed Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 3 minutes ago, old_eastender said: 1-1 HT. Strange half. We were well on top and creating chances until the fluke goal. Terrible play by Pack, who unusually is having a very poor game, leading to the corner and Maenpaa should never be beaten like that. Then all Blackburn and seemed just a question of time until 0-2. Ref, who has hardly given us anything, gives a soft FK in the D and Brownhill smashes in. See no reason why we can't win this, but Pack having mare, Watkins looking poor (again). First instinct was to sub Pack, but maybe better getting Watkins off for COD. One of them has to make way. I'm not sure, but from watching the stream when it was working. Pack didn't look fit, perhaps he had a knock in training, but he seemed so slow. It may have been the stream, which made him look slow as it kept freezing. Just a thought, as he's not up to his usual standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not picked out one of our players once. The ones I said. He picked out one of our central defenders from a corner, who misdirected his header. The one at the end of the half, where he crossed from the right wing, was perfectly weighted, but the area was crowded, so our players didn't get a head to it.

Maenpaa seems to have at least a mistake a game in him, but by and large has managed to get away with them this far. I really don’t agree with this keeper playing it out from the back business - NM seems to take too much time and too many unnecessary touches - it makes me very nervous. He was lucky to get away with one that half where he was charged Down. I’ll be glad to see FF back. The ball sailing into the stands is my comfort blanket.
