Alnwick, you couldn't make this shit up
Are our players made of porcelain?
Where di they get 10 minutes from ? I know NG took the piss a bit but 10 minutes?
And that's a goalkeeper doing his Hamstring by the looks of things, **** me, a goalkeeper......... What a club......Quote:

All things considered that’s a decent point considering what we ended up being up against
Have you considered moving your allegiance to Real Madrid , they don't win every week so you will suffer some disappointment .Quote:

Tells you something?
Does Goutas miss 3 games ?
How long you been watching football? Of course it’s not 3 games. Was it violent contact? NO!Quote:

Bit harsh, that response?Quote:

Just more to talk about when things are going awry.Quote:

Kept the distance between us and them and Derby lost too. I'm not sure how they stuffed teams recently. Hopefully not being able to beat a ten man team with a one legged goalie will haunt their form (and dreams).
Should have won it before the red card.
Could easily have lost it after the red card.
But credit for protecting the point.
Tuesday night's line up will be interesting. Billy The Fish - your time has come!
On the other hand, Millwall got a winner at Derby - who had missed a penalty - in the 95th minute:thumbup:
It's why we watch...
A point looks decent value considering the 2nd half display, sending off etc. But when we're in the ascendancy then we have to make teams pay, we don't, then there's a problem...... A lack of quality on the ball did it for me really, against an outfit who had little. It's the small things that can get us a result against teams in this division, a little bit more composure, quality in possession etc. We defended poorly for the goal, defence were to deep, no challenge on the player who headed the ball across, because we were so deep, and poor reaction in blocking the goalscorer. The point will do, but i can't really call a really good performance by any player.
Oh I am so sorry for being ignorant . Is this board for just football experts ?? If so I will remove myself .
If my post annoyed you why not just ignore it ?? You must be sooo perfect Mr Ninian
I think we should have been in a better position before the red, and there's nothing wrong in thinking that.Quote:

After the red card it was different qualities in play (although maybe we were too conservative when counter attacking chances came up?), and protecting the point was well done.Quote:

We were far better side in first half and did very well to hang on for a point.
A point was the minimum needed from this game, real shame Hull won away.
Looks like we've got big defensive problems for Tuesday.
Since Xmas Hull have won 4 and lost 1 away(to Burnley).
Could have done with that win today.
Worst case we will be without Alnwick, Goutas, Bagan, Chambers and Daland - with Turnbull, Robertson and Robinson maybe also still unavailable through injury and Collins in purgatory.Quote:

We’ve had big defensive problems all season.Quote:

It’s a point from an alleged six-pointer. Not good, but the division is so poor it will no doubt prove beneficial in the long run.
This team, though. People wax lyrical about some of these players on a regular basis. Truth is they haven’t been higher than 17th in the table all season. Today was an another indication of why that is. Neither the players nor the management and coaching set-up are very good.
I've seen bad sides before, but somehow it feels as though this one is close to being half decent if only they could stop shooting themselves in the bollocks
We never seem to get any luck, own goals, pens..nothing….i can’t see where the points we need are coming from to get to 50. This had to be one of them. League 1 eh? Wow
As you’ve mentioned the poor quality of this division a lot, when would you say the quality was good previously?Quote:

Based on what? And that isn't meant in a flippant way. You make a general point, how would you evidence it? What makes us half decent, seeing as we have been in a relegation fight all season, What do you think needs to click for us to be half decent?Quote:
