HOZDA Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 Poor performance 2nd half. Another soft goal conceded, but a draw away from home. Nervy ending (when isn't it mind?!). We move. Time to soak up the sun with a drink and enjoy the rest of the day! Quote Link to comment
Jerseybean Posted August 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 A very hard earnt point, think we would have lost that late on last season. Concerning that we created so few clear cut chances. Thought Sykes had a good game, Conway did well (although he will have nightmares about the chance he headed wide), Atkinson was solid until he got injured. Bentley's kicking put us under pressure, a few times, actually think it led to RA getting injured as he was forced into a block which resulted from DB kicking to one of their players.

How many loans has NP since he’s been here ? Quote Link to comment
big dosser Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 good point need 4 or more in the next 2 games which can be done Quote Link to comment
Wanderingred Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 Not conceding in the last minute is a big boost in terms of confidence. Small victories but we need to cling to something. Hopefully a win soon! Yes ! Quote Link to comment
ralphindevon Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 At least we’ve competed and indeed been winning in every game, it can’t all be doom and gloom can it? 2 Quote Link to comment

Tough game in that heat. Some concerns, but some plus points too. Conway worked hard and looked good. (Shame about the header.) Back 3 a little better. Only conceded one. Weimann now 4 in 4. Errrr any more…? Quote Link to comment

There will have been some on here trawling through every frame for their goal, desperate to find him at fault. Anyway, we’re off the mark, have avoided the late goal jitters & Andi Weimann is truly remarkable. 2 Quote Link to comment
RudiRed Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 2 minutes ago, Lordofthebling said: It is just worrying where we are at as a football club right now. Really concerning. I could sit here and say we shouldve had a pen, and they shouldve Bern down to 10 men, but we have to manage our game yes it was hot, but Wigan managed to keep the press going and win those second balls, we wilted literally after the first drinks break. What really worries me is that this us traditionally when we get our points on the board. Too much dead wood still in that squad that have not been good enough for years. Ah well a point on the board, 39 to go... With our track record against 10 men it could've been even worse. Quote Link to comment
Banjo Island Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 I really hope theres at least 3 teams getting a substantial points deduction this season if not then i really fear the worse Quote Link to comment

ProfitInMyPocket Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 All our away games were like this under Johnson and Holden without the goals we are scoring each game and barely anyone would say a thing, we have a similar performance under Pearson with this team and it's the end of the world. Thought Sykes, Weimann, Atkinson, Conway and Williams were good value today. Hope Atkinson is okay after that injury. All went wobbly after he came off. 2 Quote Link to comment
Curr Avon Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 We desperately need a midfield general, but unless players leave are very short of options, which are exacerbated by the injury to James and Massengo's illness. Quote Link to comment

Only 4 teams had a better change of relegation than our side if you would place a bet 3 weeks ago. It is seems we will fight for that. I have faith that we will remain in Championship. It will not be easy but we can do it. Norwich are bottom of the league did the bookmakers forecast that? This club really has the worst most negative pessimistic fans in the country or anywhere else for that matter. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Defensively still an issue, but we’ve gone ahead in every single game this season. I’ll be actually worried once/if that stops. If all else fails, blame the ref. Sorry, I blame the players/coaches - the apparent lack of fitness, mental as well as physical, and the lack of passion. True there are players who would not be solid first teamers for other sides in the division, and true too that some lack technical ability and correct decision making at this level - but fitness and passion should be givens, taking into account their enormous salaries. 1 Quote Link to comment

bexhill reds Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 Maybe it’s the heat but everything seems to ponderous at times, Nige says we’re not a possession team but we predictably keep it by going backward then lose it stupidly trying to play forward. I think we are so much better getting the ball and moving it at speed. Not convinced with the zonal defence we seem to be playing it looks really shakey. That said getting Semenyo back will make a difference, and I reckon take the pressure off the defence. Up and running now, 3 points on Tues and we’ll be away Quote Link to comment

I hear what you are saying mate but are you not concerned at the general trend of our performances under Pearson? It’s the same outcome week in week out and these are performances against teams newly promoted. Fair play for the positivity from certain people but christ that performance was dire.

A lot will depend on whether we get Semenyo back in the same form he showed last season. If we do then think we should alright. As others have said been leading in all 3 league games so far, so we are not that far off. 2 Quote Link to comment

I’d hate to see Weimann leave but if i was in his shoes id be onto my agent for a move.. with the goals he has been scoring he could probably get one last big pay day over 3 years at this level or in a topflight league on the continent IMO. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
