He made one really good save from a header which looked like it would have hit the post and collected a few crosses well, but, apart from that, none of his saves were that difficult - our finishing wasn't good enough and the Barnsley game apart were struggling to put the ball in the net.Originally Posted by surge
Out of interest, who would you give it to?
Our defence and keeper - conceded a goal
Our midfield - honours even
Our forward players - our finishing wasn't good enough
Their defence - They limited us to mostly half chances but we had 3 or 4 of those
Their midfield - honours even
Their forwards - apart from scoring once (all you need), what else did they do?
It's either one of their defenders of their keeper. Sky went for one of their defenders but I think we had too much space from corners in first half for them to be happy whereas their keeper won't be shown any negative footage when they review the game.
I thought Curtis Nelson played well and Pack and Ralls had the edge on their midfield. For them, I thought Nakhichevan Wells looked a clever player, as did Paterson (both of whom got taken off) and I thought both Bristol full backs did well. It's tough to go for one player, but I'll go for Ralls.
Needless to say our record of making slow starts under Harris is dreadful.
We may as well give the opposition an aggregate score before we start a game. It’s ridiculous and he hasn’t rectified it.
It really does.
We've had a lot worse refs tbf and it is a fool who says that anyone on our team had a better game than Mr Webb.
Only caught the second half so I might have missed the better chances but fromwhat I saw we still fail to create too much by way of clear opportunities.
Our slow starts to matches and not so ruthless defending will condemn us to the lower reaches, lack of goal threat just makes it all the more grim to watch.
Happy Friday.
Gutted to lose. That's fecked up the weekend nice and bloody early. And as miserable as I am, at least I've got that feeling that if we keep playing more like we have the last two games we will soon be climbing up the table.
But we lost 1-0! 🤷*♂️
Harry looked a little lost IMHO and we didn't seem to have much shape.
Ralls and Pack are little more than grafters so if he doesn't play well, we have little hope, especially after conceding first.
Pack has a good range of passing and is good at getting out of tricky situations. Both he and Ralls played well tonight
No doubt about it, we started on the back foot because of Harris and his defensive attitude, cost us.
The goal came because we were caught out by having both wingers so far up the pitch that they couldn't play their part defensively - we certainly didn't concede that goal because we were too defensive.
He’ll get at least until Christmas.
I think Dalman pretty much said that when we signed Wilson - need to be top 6 at Christmas
I have to say that I would be very pleasantly surprised if we were in the top 6 by Christmas. Amongst the 8 games to Boxing day we have the following:
Watford a
Stoke a
Swansea h
Norwich a
Brentford h
The others being
Millwall a
Coventry a
Luton h
Huddersfield h
I am scratching my head to see where more than 12 points will come from those games giving us 25 points from 19 games.
I have settled for a mid/lower table finish but sincerely hope that I am being too pessimistic. Don't really see the point in continually changing the Manager on a regular basis but I believe that Harris will be gone at the end of the season and not before. He will not be given any further funds in January.
I know I am a miserable git. Sorry.
Continually changing the manager is not the answer. Appointing the right manager in the first place is the answer.
I think the vast majority of supporters regarded Harris as a very poor decision by the board
Harris did a very good job last season and had 3 weeks for pre season. I feel for him in some ways and I don't. We didn't have enough time to change things in pre-season but then again, he isn't good enough to do so. I think he's bought pretty well but I don't think we've addressed enough issues and I think the playoff hangover plus NML has massively affected us.
Yes can’t believe Bristol city are 2nd, they looked really limited. We huffed and puffed but little creativity and inventiveness in and around the box, we get putting in predictable floated crosses
I think they were bloody awful but, and its a big but, they were 1-0 up after 2 minutes away from home. They didn't have to do much else after.
He had been ill prior to the Barnsley game.
I wouldn't say they had bad games, they did okay, but I cant see how you think they played well.
BC defended for most of the game so the onus was on our midfield to create chances.
As I said, you know exactly what you are going to get with these two and it is not a barrage of defence splitting passes.
I was hoping he would just do what his brother did the other week and take the game by the scruff of the neck.You knew it was all over when Murphy came on
but nah, his touches were just, well just.....
