[Albion] Fannying about at the back

[Guinness Boy]

You swore at junior players?

If a cricket coach in Shropshire did that to any age/gender they'd be on a disciplinary and lucky to keep their DBS.

Ah, have I just been whooshed?

Yes. Yes you have.

 

[schmunk]

If ever evidence was needed of a thrown match, there it is

Yes, but no.

The "match fixing" conspired to ensure the higher ranked, and favoured, team won. As illegal gambling activity goes, that would be... ...unusual.

 

[Si Gull]

Maybe. Though there was a rumour that one of the senior Notts Co. players had a kid's birthday party to attend on the date of the third round tie, so his teammates did the decent thing.....

Hey, a betting wins a betting win. Looks less suspicious when the favourite wins too

 

[Curryisgreat]

Notts County were the favourites. Their odds did drift a bit pre match prob due to monies being placed on them losing but they were still favourites…

OK, fair enough. I'd still suspect incompetence over malice!

Lovely stuff, they really had them on the ropes for a moment there. Unlucky lads.

 

[Doc Lynam]

Christ and thought Pickford was twitchy.

Please do keep 'em coming

Sick to death of this every game now. Just clear the effing ball

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

Most of the time it’s worked and we’ve played through them. I think Steele seems to be better at knowing when too much is too much and just launching it.

Let's not stop there. Let's sign a lump of a forward in the McGammon mould and just lump everything to him.

Archaic, direct, basic route one football In. Intricate, Tika-Taka De Zerbi football Out.

 

[zefarelly]

That was a weapons grade f*** up . . . . Every now and then HOOF IT.

can't blame anyone specifically, its a team fail.

 

[goldstone]

I've had enough of our insistence on playing out from the back ALL THE TIME. That situation at the end of the first half called for the ball to be cleared upfield, no question. How many goals have we conceded this season as a direct result of this tactic?

No one is saying that really just that we have conceded 6 goals from similar type of situations Verbruggen did it against Bournemouth and again tonight
It is a bit much really especially as we do very little attacking wise and as far as I’m concerned it’s been a bit like that for a while now.I know I will be slated for this but I find watching the Albion a bit boring lately
Just saying

6 according to Sky just now - no idea how many points it has lost us.

 

[Ding Dong !]

Time to start going route one for a change and hoof it. This poncing at the back is very boring and dangerous
