Are we going to go the whole of October without scoring?

[eteb]

One on target again so still not good enough

Own goal coming up!

We are playing some neat football but, as always, we're totally feeble in attack. How many balls from open and set play have we lobbed into the keeper's hands? Cullen in particular is looking right off colour.
However miracles do occur, Vip did a nice sidestep to beat his marker and put in a rasping shot, something I thought I'd never see.
And how many times are they going to kick Ronald up in the air before the ref shows red?

 

[bakajack]

Half time thoughts:
Grimes both is the embodiment of what we do well and the symptom of our disease - always available for the ball and happy to take it under any pressure.... BUT he is once again spending way too much time between our centre halves and not in the middle of the pitch where he should be to offer the defenders an out ball.

Franco once again looks like he is playing against children at times, more anticipation and more desire than anyone else on the pitch. I really would like to see a game where he plays as the midfield anchor and Grimes drops out so we can get another more box to box attack minded midfielder into the middle of the pitch.

Zan as usual being starved of service, 4 touches in the whole of the first half. Two of those was taking the ball on the spin and getting away our only shot on target and another was a clearing header from a corner.

Ref is having an absolute shocker, first 20-25 minutes let Millwall get away with murder. They could have already had a red at the rate of fouls they should have been racking up and then he waved away a clear penalty when the defender body checked Ronald out of the way of meeting a cross

[sainthelens]

Can't score, getting beyond embarrassing now.

 

[MrSwerve]

F*****g score you c***s!!!

It's 'shoot you c**ts!', but I agree!

 

[CygnusX1]

F*****g score you c***s!!!

Sums it up nicely

 

[LeonWasTheDogs]

Nice in the sun today mind. Can’t see a lot, but that’s probably a blessing.

 

[eteb]

Can't score, getting beyond embarrassing now.

Doesn't even look like we're trying to saint.

It's embarrassing with the amount of possession

 

[sainthelens]

All opposing sides need to do is push for a goal, that's us fckd.

 

[eteb]

Had to score there

 

[bakajack]

Much better in these opening 2 minutes
