Should've. But I feel we also shouldn't have to rely on him for defensive duties... 

But he's world class there!

[Keepers Ball]

Gone back to being pathetic.

Bar Bentley and Kalas get shot of every one of them

Welcome to BCFC Nige

Looks like it could be back to normal. Why are we so bad at home, especially as there are no supporters to jeer them when they are playing badly. It's a real mystery!

[Ian M]

Ok, grabbing my car keys

Where maenpaa when you need him? How can you go from shot stopping  genius to clown in just a few weeks?

That’s Bentley for you

[RoystonFoote'snephew]

1st goal may have been against the run of play but certainly not the 2nd,and yet another goal conceded from a set piece. Shambles! 

[CotswoldRed]

Which date is our first leg in the playoffs?

[Banjo Red]

Some of these players are just not up to it.

[tin]

What is Fam doing there? Awful. Mind you, maybe this is karma for our smash-and-grab win at QPR earlier this season.

Don't you mean most players?

Not really fan pressure is it?

Nope, I always thought it may of been the reason. But Covid has proved its not the case. 

[bexhill reds]

QPR look like scoring every break at present. Pressing us right up the pitch, again too many tippy tally passes across the back, back to Bentley who lumps up the pitch for them to win and break quickly. So ******* predictable

[Alex_BCFC]

The season was over when we didn't beat Bournemouth so not a massive issue with needing the points. Just about building for next now although losing 2-0 at home to QPR doesn't sound too useful...

[Sturny]

Ah from a corner back to our keeper after a couple of passes. We can't handle QPR's press 

[Maesknoll Red]

If we want Pearson to stay, we’d best hope he is up for a challenge......

[RedorDead BCFC]

F king Diedhiou clears off the line, just their line 

[sephjnr]

How he hell did we need to work one of our own corners back to Bentley?

(sixty seconds later)

Oh look, another failed tap-in.

[Wade Wilson]

Oh that’s the one Fam blocks 

[Sturny]

Great defensive work there Fam

[Malago]

Great block by Fam.  FFS

[Unan]

Camera man/stream producer needs a good shooting

[SedRA]

FFS Fam, fluffs a clearance for their goal, fluffs the shot on a great chance, then blocks hunts goal bound effort.  

[E.G.Red]

Lansbury on for Nagy

Ilias Chair is 5 foot 2 btw

Not sure his height is relevant, it was a cross between two players its not like he's outjumped anyone.

[Always red]

I am sorry. I haven't watched for a while on Robins TV so perhaps I'm a Jonah but this performance is absolutely awful. What a waste of a tenner

Didn't stop cross for first (half arsed attempt) and defender caught under the ball and second with post, misskick and lack of urgency was another c**k up

Has another home defeat written all over it. Hope I'm wrong and that NP gives them a real b******g at half time. He looks grumpy and quite rightly.

And now Hunts shot hits own man? 

Season peters out....... 

 

[77 punk]

busy summer transfer window coming up

That's the problem. We have too many players not fit for purpose. This will not be resolved until hopefully Pearson has a clear out and signs some players who are capable of doing their job.

[Midlands Robin]

From our corner we literally carry the ball back into our own half. 

We so often exchange positions for possession that we keep playing ourselves into trouble. 

Too often our midfield seems to spend more time facing Bentley.

We look far better when we run at them. QPR look a bit shakey when pressured. 

[IAmNick]

2 - 0 down and Lansbury getting ready to come on. OTIB on suicide watch

This is the issue. NP is definitely getting 10-15% more from them, but most are bottom of the table standard and others are mid-table at best.
