Red-Robbo Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 The winning streak was gonna end at some time and losing by 2 gals to a team with big bucks and full of PL players isn't a disaster. I'm relaxed about it. Now, how do we set about cloning COD and Eliasson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esmond Million's Bung Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Pack and Brownhill need to be fitted with electric collars and zapped every time one of them doesn't remain in the holding role when we are attacking. Paterson is not a player to bring on when we are losing, whoever he is replacing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WolfOfWestStreet Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Not a disaster still 5th. Defence needs a bollocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerseybean Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 An odd game, the difference simply being that one team was very clinical the other less so. Onward to Wigan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed the space we were finding in midfield. Not sure, still seemed to be finding loads of space. He just either mispassed it, turned around and slowed it all up or made an odd run into the wrong space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intercity Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 What I learnt from this game: - Defence not quite as water-tight as we thought - Jack Hunt really poor on this showing, is he defensively any improvement on Pisano? - Fammy back on his game - Paterson will not be getting back into the team any time soon - This team has character! Good and bad, but a very entertaining 90 minutes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppyDAZE Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Lee, I know you said you are prepared to take the blame for defenders trying to play football in their own half and getting caught out. I'd rather they (you) just didn't do it. At 3-1 they were rocking, absolute shocker form Hunt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobBobSuperBob Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Have to say if I’d had to put big money on five defeats this season WBA away would have been one Just annoying a decent performance completely wrecked by schoolboy defending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Not to disheartened, although hate losing. Everything went wrong in the first half hour.

Gazred Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 WBA more clinical but we did present them with some chances, from some uncharacteristic of late poor defending. Kept going though and thought we were the better side in the 2nd half. No shame in that defeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 We'll play a lot worse than that and win games against weaker opposition. Credit to them for sticking at it, just left themselves a bit too much to do. Feeling more optimistic than if we'd lost 1 or 2-0 but offered nothing going forward. Have to sort out the defensive collapses though, you can get away with it sometimes but the better teams in the division will always punish it.

Paterson has shown at times he is a real talent but he just seems incapable of playing well on a consistent basis and it is quite some time since he really turned it on for us at all. I reckon we have to go back to January Reading /QPR at home ?Story of his career sadly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenred Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Frustrating that we played so well in parts and not come away with anything but as most have said it’s no disgrace to lose to them and we did well not to completely capitulate after that horrible period first half. Let’s hope we can turn it around Friday night amd get the momentum going again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Gave away a rash pen, got caught on the break too often, very naive against a side scattered with ex Prem players. Let 4 in But clawed 2 back so goal difference not as bad as it could have been. Won the second half 2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent performance with some naive defending and clinical finishing by West Brom. Optimistic about Friday. This. I thought we were fantastic apart from the naive defending. You would hope individual errors are the easiest to remedy. Big learning curve for young Kelly. Optimistic for the rest of the season on that showing.

brad blit Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Funny how Hunt had played well previously but is now no better than Pisano, and Kelly makes the same mistake yet isn’t vilified presumably because he’s the next Bristolian so we can possibly say anything bad.... West Brom just punished our sloppy mistakes and it’s hopefully a lesson learnt. Wasn’t expexting much at start of game! Also not one of Brownhills best games as I can’t think of many things he done well tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
