  1. some right garbage on the walsall forum, apparently they were the better footballing team, it was never a penalty and we didn't deserve 3 points :laughcont:

    great win today, COYR!!

    Think the some the win has led to some rose times glasses in regards to the game.

    The first half was not good football. Both teams looked poor, and if it were not for the penalty (looked a penalty, tripping Reid) would have been really worrying.

    Only the twenty minutes towards the end did we see anything like entertaining football. Before that there were plenty of long balls that no one got on the end of. Plenty of passing along the back leading to those long balls. Sitting really deep and not pushing up (in fact the moment Shorey came on we looked to have decided to sit deep, defend the lead and look for chances to break as Walsall were forced to push forward). Not necessarily the wrong thing, but not great to watch.

    Baldock could have gotten some goals to put the game beyond doubt, but he failed to do so - which again he has all season.

    Ultimately though it was a win, and that is more important than the standard of football.

  2. Walsall were really poor, the game could have gone into midnight and they would not have scored. For seventy minutes the game was poor, only the fact we were one up made most of that time bearable.

    Last twenty minutes was much better, more attacking, thanks to pace upfront from Burns and Baldock. If we play like that more often will be good to see.

    But hey ho... A much needed win. If Baldock converted his chances we'd have win 4-0. There again if he converted his chances, we would be in the play offs.

  3. Thought it strange when he said SC wants to be involved with all elements of the club... Surely he should be told NO... How can the manager/head coach be interchangeable if he is dictating the academies style of play or getting involved in other matters.. I thought the whole idea was to create a club that creates a support system for the first team.. But is also at arms length and beyond the interference / whims / of the first team coach/manager.

    Anyway nice to hear him speak and see he still had some fire in him.

  4. Made hard work of it in the end. All that for a completely pants draw as per usual.

    I was impressed with Baldock today. Missed a few again but he lead by example today and worked hard. That is what I expect to see from him more weeks than most. Especially from a captain.

    That has been my main complaint with Baldock. I can handle him missing chances, all good strikers do but his all round game up until late hasn't been good enough. Today he looked sharp though and long may that continue.

    He's been running those channels all season, he's also managed 8 league goals and a number of assists.. The only difference today is the quality of the opposition.

  5. Pack, Reid, Gillett, Shorey looks a little weak - would like to see Wynter in that line up for Gillett.

    Don't under stand why we put both Taylor and Harewood on the bench.. Would like another option like Burns to take one of their slots on the bench... But hey ho...
