BCFCGav Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Strange old game football. Performance dipped again today but we get something from the game, polar opposite of Tuesday. O’Leary and Pring more than taking their chance, not sure why Pring was ever bombed out. 1 Quote Link to comment

If it weren't for Max, we could easily have conceded 5 or 6. They've had 70% possession. Over 20 efforts at our goal. More that twice the passes & twice the attacks we've had. This is one of the few teams who are below us in the table..! It's a welcome point - but a rather fortunate one. As our 1 point from the last 2 home games against 2 teams above us,was not good dispite being the better side,you can’t pick and choose what is acceptable 1 Quote Link to comment
Red Army 75 Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 World Cup break coming at the right time. Refresh the players get the injured ones back. We need the break 3 Quote Link to comment

NP has said for a long time that we don’t have the players to be a possession team, so we are always going to be low on the stats away from home. Lots of great individual performances, the players earned that result. 1 Quote Link to comment

miketh2nd Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Not a great game and would of lost without Max. Our midfield was non existent. Seeing as we were playing players out of position I dunno why we didn't just put Scott at RB and DaSilva at LB to go 4 at the back. Quote Link to comment

Loosey Boy Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Great point away from home - not at our best but fair play to the players…..gave their all. Would have taken a point before the game. 2 Quote Link to comment

It's not swings & roundabouts when we've won 2 of our last eleven games...! You make it sound like Sheff Utd game was an unfortunate anomolly - the anomolly was that we had the better of the stats - & still lost. Quote Link to comment
weepywall Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Good point against a team that had a new manager in his first home game, pleased for the fans that made that horrible trip 4 Quote Link to comment
OliOTIB Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 take the point, thought max was outstanding today and pring was also decent again. just disappointed we didnt push for more with 3 strikers and weimann starting. Quote Link to comment
Numero Uno Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Just now, billywedlock said: A good point away from home, on a day we were quite wayward in defence. Max was exceptional, Pring and Conway very good. A few were well off the required level. But getting a draw is great when you have such an off day. I struggle to understand some posters on here who seem to gain great joy from the team struggling. It is most bizarre. The negativity and total lack of comprehension of the situation at the club is exactly what we need to get rid of to become a success in the future. None of it is constructive, it is just negative moaning. Which is why they have to carry on criticising. You can't moan all afternoon then say "happy with a point". Makes you look an even bigger idiot. The fact is some of them were literally "waiting" for Middlesbrough to get the winner and we disappointed them by battling for a point - despite having no bollocks apparently. Yes, we were poor today, make no mistake about that. If Sykes replaces Semenyo at half time, with the benefit of hindsight, the goal doesn't get conceded. However, I'm happy we took a point up there. 5 3 Quote Link to comment

Negan Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 VERY lucky to get the point, was an awful performance but did well to see it out in the end. Referee bit of a joke but it’s safe to stay Nige don’t play that team/system again. 1 Quote Link to comment

Thought the ref was a total homer, gave them the softest or even non existence of fouls, booked us at ever opportunity but failed to see us being fouled.

That can literally be said of every team in and around us (bar Coventry) the reason teams finish 13th-19th is inconsistency and a bit of luck there are 3 worse teams. There’s no way after watching the last 10/11 games you can sit there comfortably and say “we’ll be fine”. It’s going the same way as last season I’m afraid, let’s hope we get the same amount of luck with those below us again. 1 Quote Link to comment
Red Army 75 Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 NP taking over a team with no money and players on high earnings not even getting a games. Clearing the mess caused by SL/ MA and past management . If he had carried on the spending I would be on his back and starting to doubt him. But he has one hell of a job on his hands. Surely fans can see the problems he faces. Yes he has made mistakes but I’m still 100% behind NP. 17 1 Quote Link to comment
