Ref is friggin hopeless

has he in all his games being a ref

gave us any good call?

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Not a good half when you have the much control of the game and territory and don’t make anything of it. It’s obvious what the issues are but the manager keeps sending those players out to be terrible every week so it is what it is at this point.

I don't know, Forest want you to have control of the game and the territory because they want you to over-commit. We've done well not to fall into that trap. I'm happy with that first half performance.

We are playing away to the third placed team

exactly

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Haven’t had this much possession in years
Why we’re playing Doucoure over Alcaraz in a possession game is beyond me!

 

[TrixyStevens]

All fart and no

We lack serious cutting edge up front.

 

[Hellerad]

If we could play the ball forward half as fast as we play it backward, we’d win the league

 

[f.t.r.s]

Crying out for alcaraz instead of doucs...
Painful watching us try and play through Harrison every time

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Spartacus?

I'm spartacus

 

[Lloydaldo11]

What have we ever done to them that they would treat us that way?

He’s on eternal payback for giving Dom a pen at the pit

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Doucoure is gone so stop playing him!!!

We know, before a ball is kicked, that with those two on the pitch, every attack will break down in the final third.

Watch forest be much better in the second half.

 

[jonnyg]

Probably the most involved Harrison's been all season, not very good apart from one pass.

It didn't hurt us but Mykolenko made the riskiest back pass I've ever seen, Woods only needed to stretch out a foot.

 

[Zatara]

Alcaraz, McNeil & Chermiti on

Doucoure, Harrison & Broja off



Please dour Davey

that’s how they play - so do what suits us to stop them
