JoeAman08 Posted August 31, 2019 Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 Started in a weird shaped 442 and ended more 3142. Last season we were 451 a lot and people called it boring and wanted more attacking football. Well that is what happens when you go more at teams. They get more chances. Thought both sides were dangerous and considering they were closer to full strength that we were that is a decent result and entertaining to watch. With a more competent lineman reckon we see that out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a slow start for us second half and caught out with 2 goals in 2 mins, but 2nd one was clearly offside - can only think lino didn't give it cause Taylor Moore headed on. Probably a fair result overall. Hope international break can see Hunt, Massengo & Nagy all fit ready for Stoke. Yes Owers and Twentypence on RB agree that the linesman allowed it because of Taylor Moores heading on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boro looked dangerous everytime they came forward at the end Boro will be up there fighting when it counts imo and so will we. That was no easy game, ignore their start. 1 minute ago, Keith Welch said: Did Wing chop him down the 2nd time as well? Thought it was Clayton.

BCFC Rich Posted August 31, 2019 Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 Don't think their goal is actually offside. Taylor Moore gets a clear intentional touch with his head which puts Assombalonga onside. You could maybe argue Assombalonga is interfering with play but it's a bit of a stretch. If you look in the build up you can see Pereira knows hes off but either doesn't comunicate that or Taylor doesn't hear him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey54 Posted August 31, 2019 Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 I liked Woodgate as a player and it looks like he's turning Boro into a good footballing side. Respect due Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally think the linesman got it wrong as the Moore touch shouldn't equate to a different phase of play. Assombalonga was clearly offside for the whole phase but in all honesty all three officials were awful today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted August 31, 2019 Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 From the beeb site. shows we did well to get something out of the game . ‘ Han-Noah Massengo won't be able to shake off that knock and will have to be replaced, with Antoine Semenyo coming on in his place. In the last 15 minutes Bristol City have conceded twice and lost two players through injury. Not ideal for head coach Lee Johnson.’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me either, to be honest. I think the offside law needs revision and all this first phase, second phase nonsense should be removed.

petehinton Posted August 31, 2019 Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 Think Semenyo killed us a bit personally. Hardly got stuck in at all and hardly broke into a sprint the whole time he was on.

Yea such a weird rule because TM could argue he has to head it not knowing if a mate is keeping him on. If BA is not there he doesn’t have to try and head away.

Let's hope he is as successful as his predecessors. Their fans seem way more sensible. General consensus on their forum is 2-2 was fair - a few disappointed not to get the win, a few saying they would have taken a draw before the game. A few nice comments about our players, compliments for Bentley and Palmer in particular, also a few saying they feel sorry for Moore and the OG. Most unsensational and balanced Oppo forum I've seen this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizyer Posted August 31, 2019 Report Share Posted August 31, 2019 At 1-2 I would have taken a point and at 2-2 it looked as if Boro were most likely to get a third so, all in all. probably a fair result and now we have time to get some of the injured players fit for Stoke.
