EmersonsRed Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Korey Smith had a very poor half, Ayling and Williams looking somewhat suspect although Ayling made a great save. Bryan injury a negative. Frankly outplayed at the moment but still in the game. Quote Link to comment
Port Said Red Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 How is McGuigan still on the pitch we didn't even get a free kick for that challenge on Joe. I thought he had broken his leg for a minute.... 1 Quote Link to comment
CiderHider Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 We did alright out there, glad to be in at 0-0 Quote Link to comment
havanatopia Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Who are those posters who were slating Burns? He has done alright so far. Quote Link to comment
MaverickTheBritish Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Fredericks has been decent defensively, but indecisive attacking wise. As long as we press more, I could see us getting a few shots away, and hopefully in the back of the net. Keep positive guys! Quote Link to comment

Bryan injury a negative. Frankly outplayed at the moment but still in the game. I thought the opposite (but for Bryan). Thought the three you picked out looked pretty composed and think we're putting in a decent performance considering it's game one in a division higher and we're away from home. Quote Link to comment

The Bard Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 We seem to be a little bit wary today. Fredericks doesn't look like he wants to use his pace - Burns just showed what could be done by getting at them. They need a bit of a push at half time. If we step up here we can win this game - Sheff Wed don't look anything special. 1 Quote Link to comment
BRISTOL86 Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Pleased to get to HT without conceding to be honest. Looked very dodgy in spells. If we can retain the ball better and use it a bit more intelligently it could go either way. But it's a shock seeing us so wasteful when we get the ball. Quote Link to comment
Selred Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Korey Smith had a very poor half, Ayling and Williams looking somewhat suspect although Ayling made a great save. Bryan injury a negative. Frankly outplayed at the moment but still in the game. I thought Williams was the best player on the pitch for us! Wallace is a very good player at this level and Williams has stopped him getting a lot of crosses in. Ayling has been caught out on or two times but overall looks not too bad. Think both Pack and Smith could do more, seem to be sitting back too much and just looking to spray balls to the wing backs. Quote Link to comment
Port Said Red Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Korey Smith had a very poor half, Ayling and Williams looking somewhat suspect although Ayling made a great save. Bryan injury a negative. Frankly outplayed at the moment but still in the game. What game are you watching? Korey Smith has beena class above in his defensive role. Two poor passes forward maybe, but other than that he has been superb. I have seen nothing from Sheff Wed that worries me in the slightest.

havanatopia Posted August 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 According to BCFC Player City have had 100% of possession in the first half. I am no expert but frankly that is incorrect. Quote Link to comment

Keep positive guys! he has the quality, but in at the deep end up against a monster on the right, seems better on the left, more confident. Quote Link to comment
nebristolred Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Weird how opinions go, I thought Smith has been well below par as well. So wasteful on the ball. Quote Link to comment
Sydneybcfc Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 I think its pretty even watching the stream, they have had a few very good chances but its all because we are playing like we are at home. Our wingbacks are basically playing midfield if not higher which has left our back 3 exposed at the counter attack which is where all the chances have come from. Wilbs and Kodjia have barely been in the game, all the actions come from wide or attacking midfield. We need to somehow get them more involved. 1 Quote Link to comment
pigeon Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Pack has been incredibly frustrating 1st half. Poor decision making and his passing has been way off. To top it off he had a crack from close to the halfway line which was completely pointless as it trickled to the keeper. The other thing i've noticed, our back 3 are getting caught out constantly as Bryan (now Burns) and Fredricks are pushing up as they have done in League 1 and Shef Wed are just exposing this by pulling Flint out wide to try and handle an agile winger. Might need a change of tactics from SC for the 2nd half but I'll trust his judgement! Quote Link to comment

That's pretty much exactly how I saw it. 2 Quote Link to comment
frenchred Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Nothing wrong with the Ref, been even to both sides all you can ask for, my god we aint gonna start on Ref's already ar we? Look closer to home Pack not good enough for league one let alone championship and Williams week link in defence Quote Link to comment

I think we're lucky to be level at the moment. But a win is not out of the question either. Quote Link to comment
Northern Red Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 I think it's been alright. They've been the better side but not by the distance some are claiming. Quote Link to comment

I thought Wilbraham was going too wide, since no one was there to put in crosses. We need to get them more central with the wing backs pushing up, however it would only expose our defense to more attacking threats... 1 Quote Link to comment

cityexile Posted August 8, 2015 Report Share Posted August 8, 2015 Been second best in fairness, passing not quite working and grateful they missed some good chances. Still, 0-0 and in it, so onwards and upwards. Quote Link to comment
