JamesBCFC Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 1 hour ago, BRISTOL86 said: Not sure what point you’re trying to argue James. We’ve set up 532 in every away game this season, even on nights like tonight when we’re having to play a 4th choice CB and a winger in there to be able to put enough names on the team sheet. We set up with 5 defenders at home to Forest on Saturday and even 11 v 10 barely registered a shot on target. Are you honestly happy with that? If you aren't sure then that's on you. My point is extremely clear. LJ hasn't been afraid to try different formations in the past. So criticism on the basis that he never does so is invalid. Nothing I said even remotely suggested I am "happy with" games with no shots on target, and I personally had you down as someone who was above twisting words to insinuate nonsense. Evidently I was wrong. If you look back I wasn't defending the formation, team selection or anything. In fact I made no comment about it either way. What I was commenting on is the fans determination to have it both ways when it comes to critiquing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuber Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 This has been coming. We've not been the best defensively and have had some Naive perfomances while managing to pick up points with a pretty low number of chances. The exact same position we were in before a certain winless run. Difference being we've spent £35m since then, still have no midield, and still have no identity. People will look at results, but the last few games have reminded me starkly of the S'OD days. We do not move off the ball. Period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numero Uno Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Our starting XI lost us that and any time you make three individual mistakes like we did there’s only one result.

Major Isewater Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 LJ trying to be too clever , again, against one of the best teams in the division. He still believes Roy of the Rovers is real. If it comes off he’s the hero but it rarely does. I would like to see à joined up team where players know what they’re doing and the game of their teammates. We gave WBA the game. Very disappointed with tonight’s performance. I could have accepted a hard fought loss but it was a stroll in the park for the midlanders. Roll on Huddersfield and let’s see a response.

Get a f.....g grip Still in 7th and beaten by the team that's gone top. I get it you don't like the manager, but just take a step back and look at where we are, I'd rather be in our position than Barnsley, Stoke or Boro. Tonight was shit, just as shit as against Luton, but WBA have got some good players, they'll be up there at the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't vilify you, you'll receive plenty of that. Mate. I also noticed that West Brom had a mainly non-white team. But, I don't think how you presented your thoughts was done in the correct manner. You might not be aware - for whatever reason - that comments such as yours are just not acceptable in today's society. Unfortunately for you, your comment WILL be considered racist and quite rightly too. Maybe you typed what your brain thought. Next time, pause and think what you are saying. We all make mistakes.

Dastardly and Muttley Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 I didn’t expect anything tonight. Away at WBA is tough. 4-1 wouldn’t have been a surprise if you’d told me that at 7:30. What I didn’t expect was a clueless first half with an entirely wrong team selection and no idea how to play. That falls on the manager and that has happened too many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 3rd and 4th WBA goals were offside to be fair. Linesman keeps up with play better and maybe we still have that belief at 2-1 to get an equaliser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
