Match day threads are hilarious. Pretty much unanimous opinion pre-match that away to the league leaders was a free hit and a good performance is the most important thing. After a narrow loss that should probably have been a draw, we're somehow 4 places lower and 34 points worse off than we are in reality?

I'm pretty sure some of them cheer when we concede just so they can post in the match day thread. The others believe we're Real Madrid.

4 points ahead of Portsmouth but according to you we are comfortably top half.

Now we're getting somewhere. We are very near the bottom of the table, well done. But we're not bottom are we? You can call it pedantic if you like, but if the season finished today, we wouldn't be relegated. If we actually were bottom, then we would be. Seems an important difference to me.

I bet you hate losing at Scrabble don't you

A lot better than under Sheehan, but unfortunately for Matos we just don't have the quality in the final third. It looks we are stuck with these players for a few seasons.

Our strikers and wingers have to get their decision making far better than it is atm Ronald and Inuossa had great chances to cross but in both cases blazed over.

Very very pedantic

I thought we did well today and would have been good value for the point had we got it. Cullen and Vipo should have scored. Our awful wingers are killing us.

Why/how are we stuck with them? A bit melodramatic

 

[Longlostjack]

Vipotnik awful.

Cullen awful.

Galbraith poor.

Inoussa poor.

Widell very good.

Stamenic good.

Ronald poor.

Eom ok.

Centre backs good.

Tymon ok.

Keeper excellent.

Disagree on Galbraith - otherwise

Decent performance away to a good team. They just had that bit more quality going forward although I didn’t think they were anything special. I know they’ve got a few players out but it’s surprising they’ve hit so many goals this season if that’s what they look like.

You can see the quality in some of these young players. Widell, Stamenic, Inoussa will all be better for us next season. It might be a case of us needing to wait to see the benefits. We’ll have to stay up first of course.

I would agree with everything other than wingers. Ronald and Inoussa didn't do to bad. Eom was crap. Would like to see Yalcouye instead of Franco and Widell needs to start.

Same. Set pieces shite but was one of the best on the pitch (again)

Feel free to quote where I said we were comfortably top half.

 

[Smurph]

Another match day thread in danger of being spoilt by the usual bed wetters. It's a shame after a performance pointing us in the right direction.

Very very pedantic

Two replies to the same post and still not able to admit you were talking shit? My 12 year old would do better than this.
