Engvall’s Splinter

Far too much time and space in the middle of the pitch. Miles off.

FFS

Chance that for Weimann.

Give it to Pete Trego.

Presume the guy has forgotten his login today.

Warnock.

Would you take a point now? ?

Whilst Hampshire Red/Reds does post too often absolute tosh, I have started to fight an internal battle with Pearson and his status. I want him to succeed and on one hand understand the need for time, the mess that has been created by many of the senior leadership team, the journey we are likely to be on etc. He’s proven pedigree, most likely the most experienced person we could attract. But there are tiny doubts in there which on a gamely basis i am trying to resist. I hope we stick with Pearson, but I also want more on the pitch (although I dont think are squad is either suitably balanced or good enough - appreciate he needs transfer Windows). Supporting Bristol City has never confused me further.

Oh Alex Scott is Magic He wears a red and white hat He plays for Bristol city and sways this way and that He hits it with his left and his hits it with his right And when he’s in the box his dives are ******* sh*te ooohhhhh

Got to be looking for a nibble there. Fair play.

Out of interest, as I read this quality shout a lot, what assessment or how much have you watched of the teams below us to know they don’t have the quality? Many of our players wouldn’t get in other championship sides - perhaps Bentley, Kalas only at the moment. Also, football is more than quality. It’s determination, self motivation, the will to win especially when the chips are down. At the minute I don’t see much of that from a few of our players. It only takes a few and the impact is huge.

Regardless of how much money the current owners have - how are they liable for what happened X amount of years before their time? (Genuine question) We have this with governments having to apologise for the mistakes made by others 50+ years ago. Offering compensation even. I have sympathy with people who have been affected by such crimes and hopefully Bennell gets some form of comeuppance in prison, I really do. Yet if Man City were Bury FC I doubt this would be being pushed for compensation so many years down the line.

It’s almost as if he’s trying to get the sack ?

Have a tablet fella.

It means we’ve wasted a substitution, bringing off Tanner for an ageing Simpson who’s somewhat past his best. Not that hard to understand?

Agreed. But I don’t expect vanity substitutions. Tanner for Simpson. What a waste.

Goodridge / Akinbiyi

Would’ve kept him on. Appreciate the stretching of the game / better pressing (allegedly) shouts but the guys can finish. Has a history of it. Should’ve left him on. Unless he had a niggle of course.

Absolutely. If you are taking Wells off and in a game where the ball is not sticking, put someone like Britton on. Can do no worse.

Perhaps because he’s unable to owing to others having worse application and ability ?

Agreed. It’s not going our way. I thought the lads worked hard. You could see them busting a gut at the death to get back behind the ball. Wrong decision to put COD up top. don’t understand that. Wells is a well known threat (despite his recent form). Home form is crap. Nige has questions to answer but this season was always going to be a huge scrap. Our squad is poor. His hands are tied. Need to stay in the division.

This is torture ?

Come on lads !!!

Unless Wells is struggling, I don’t see the value in O’Dowda coming on up front ?!

Good on you lads.
