wood looks shit today

 

[OzMike]

Should be 2-0 how the f*** did he miss!

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Even their big, furry mascot has a better first touch than most of our guys

 

[Driver8]

Three subs at half time. Get on El-Abd for Dunk, Bridcutt for Navarro and Sandaza for Wood.

We only have two left.

Pants!

This is such a bad performance - it looks like a training game. Although it isn't going to cost us promotion, it is not good for morale and confidence going into next season. There is no desire at all.

 

[Devon Seagull]

looks pretty poor on Sky

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Brezovan is playing his first game in two months, behind 3rd and 4th choice centre backs, in a team already 1-0 down due to a defensive error, a team that have already won the division title and aren't exactly playing their best. He has played 7 first team games this season. Give the guy a break.

Agreed, never understand the slagging of our own players on here.

Worst half of the season by a country mile.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Hope Poyet rips these people to shreds at half-time

Ferret (on twitter) said that Bennett applauded the yellow card.

Certainly not the way it looked on telly.

Blush! Bridcutt and Sandaza then. Maybe even Hart for wood instead of Sandaza, at least OGH will give it some beans.

 

[Mackenzie]

We are half the team without Glenn Murray. No-one else at the club can play the part he does.

Correct. Whenever he's not played, been subbed or whatever our performance drops. He keeps on at our players and organises the defence at set pieces as well as being our most effective forward.

We'll not be the same if we fail to renew his contract.

 

[Steve Foster]

H/T thank goodness. Could not have played any worse even if we had tried!

 

[Lardinho]

Pants!

Still a soccer sage the brother!

This game and many others will be long forgotton by the start of next season, but I do take your point.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Brezovan needs to move on this summer.

 

[Bwian]

Greer is such a prick, we would have beaten southampton if he hadn't got sent off.

Maybe he isn't-at least Gus knows for sure now exactly where we need strengthening. He obviously knows but these last 2 games have confirmed it.

 

[My Name Is Gully]

Ferret (on twitter) said that Bennett applauded the yellow card.

He fouled their player, got penalised, then clapped, then got carded - whether the ref was going to do it for the foul who knows!

 

[Sam Ovett]

Wouldn't say slagging off, just saying I don't think he's that good. Especially compared to Ankergren, as he cannot play the ball as well which is what we need.
