Guest jimbo76 Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Being an exiled Red, I'm bouncing off the walls at the moment with relief/joy/anticipation. Can someone hurry up with a match report and some player ratings please. From what I heard on the radio, it sounded like our better players who have been letting us down so far this season, have finally found their bollo*ks. Come on you Reds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

city nut Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Heres a report off the brentford site. It may be a little bit bias and it does refer to Wilkshire as a Striker http://www.brentfordfc.premiumtv.co.uk/pag...~557923,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwicolin Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 wilkshire man of the match for us. murray back to his best today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cidergal Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 I had a really silly grin on my face when I saw that Murray had scored a couple. Almost as important as the result that he got a couple because he was so important in our side a couple of seasons ago. I was getting worried about him, hopefully he's back for good!

Citybabe2k04 Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 I don't think he has completly got baxk to himself but that was the closest I have seen him ever since we got him back from Reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just like watching brazil Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 brentford were a poor side,although dropping bradley orr,and replacements murray,wilkshire,roberts made a difference actually having pace and width instead of playing down the middle. ratings out of 10 phillips 5/10 quiet afternoon apart from dodgy kick which he was lucky to get away with smith 6/10 didnt do much wrong coles 7/10 solid performance butler 6/10 did get caught out by a few crosses. hill 7/10 best game this season also 1 highlight of afternoon with superb 50 yard pass cross field to murray which he mis controlled and went out of play. murray 8/10 superb performance though control did let him down at times. wilkshire 9/10 best game ive seen him play certainly what we've missed even if did play on the left wing. doherty 7/10 faultless performance although temper did nearly cost him another booking. tinnion 7/10 did'nt start well but soon found his passing range. roberts 7/10 good performance never stopped running,made good passes,crosses which no one was on the end of. lita 6/10 very quiet game. man of match can't split wilkshire and murray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilnin Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 4 for Roberts you are kidding? Phillips = 6/10 Smith = 7/10 Hill = 7/10 Butler = 7/10 Coles = 7/10 Murray = 8/10 Wilkshire = 8/10 Doherty = 7/10 Tinman = 7/10 Lita = 6/10 Roberts = 7/10 Well done to Tinman choosing a good team, now we just need all to stay fit and start with the same starting line up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citybabe2k04 Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Damn right! All those five changes made a very good change and ended in a good result! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashcott Boy Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Wilkshire played on the left? I wasnt at the game today so i assumed it was Tinnion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrenadaRed Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 hill 7/10 best game this season also 1 highlight of afternoon with superb 50 yard pass cross field to murray which he mis controlled and went out of play. ← Not sure why you think Hill played so well. I thought he was the only shaky player. Lots of poor balls through to Brentford players. I don't think he is playing well at the moment and today was not much difference. I agree about Murray and Wilkshire being joint MOM's. So glad Orr was dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portishead Puffin Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 I don't normally go for this stuff, but I am in a good mood today so here goes. Phillips 6 (little to do but most of his kicking was better than normal) Smith 7 (set the tone with some strident tackles and supported Murray well) Coles 7 (A different player with Butler there) Butler 8 (mainly for his influence on the rest but also for his quiet assurance) Hill 7 (did well going forward and filling in when Luke went inside) Wilkshire 9 (Always looking for the different option and two well taken goals) The Doc 8 (for his play) 6 (for his crazy mixed up attitude) Tinman 7 (put his money where his mouth is and proved a lot of us wrong) Murray 8 (confidence grew and grew as the game went on and two goals) Lita 7 (worked hard took up some good positions, never got a shot at goal) Roberts 5/6 (the enigma that is Roberts always an outlet, missed an open goal, never struck up an understanding with Lita) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barneyredballs Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 How can you possibly give Lita more than Roberts today? Both put in plenty of effort and I'm not sure they will work as a partnership, but Roberts often pulled players out of position and made some telling passes. He also got himself into 2/3 positions where (admitedly) he should have at least hit the target, but he got himself there through brains and speed. I knew CR would get bad press after missing a couple, but after focusing on Lita who often stepped into Murray's areas thus bringing defenders with him; I think that CR is developing into an intelligent footballer. CR 7 today, 8 with a goal. LL 6 today, 1 defence splitting pass for murray's 2nd; but little else + a little light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barneyredballs Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 Wrong for SP, JS, MH, TD and CR; but apart from that spot on! Well done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tunley Legend Posted August 30, 2004 Report Share Posted August 30, 2004 I can assure you that the 50 yard pass to Murray from Hill was NOT intentional. I was about 30 yards away from Hill and he just aimed a swinger to nobody in particular that nearly turned out to be the pass of the season!

You were joking weren't you? ← Precisely the reason I don't normally get involved in these things, one mans exciting runner is another mans headless chicken. I stick by my comments although I was over generous to Lita and perhaps I would give Chris 6/7 for the second half effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
