1885_SFC added 17:11 - Feb 11 Bridders2 added 17:14 - Feb 11 SFC_Referee added 17:16 - Feb 11 As much as todays display was much better than last weeks or any previous games we’ve had for a while, it just ain’t good enough! As from the hour after they went down to 10 men, we’d managed to go from 11V10, being all over them, having soo many chances compared to their few and actually playing some great football! To ending up loosing 2-1! As everyone was playing so well up until their first goal with absolutely nobody playing poorly, yet bednerak just tops it all off with that own goal. As how he’s playing over Calleta Car just makes no sense at all ! As today for most of the game we really didn’t look like that bad of a team, with all 3 of our new signings looking really good, but unfortunately just a mere 3 points from 8 games ain’t good enough one bit. And unless we however we get in is some sorta miracle worker then we are well and truly done for! As you don’t get many games giving you a better chance at 3 points than this one. As it reminded me of England at the euros and World Cup, being all over their opponents for a majority of the game, easily being able to win with just that one more goal with all the chances we had, yet because we don’t our opponents get one back and get into it, and then to top it all off get a late last minute winner/win on penalties! Although it sure was nice to see a ref actually make a player properly pay for the dissent they gave! I_would added 17:18 - Feb 11 I thought we played quite well first half. We just seemed to run out of puff, then some strange subs dreamt up by our jumpy chaser of even-toed ungulates to make us feel at home like good old Ralphy and, hey presto, we're f****d. codge added 17:20 - Feb 11 Every time l think it can’t get worse it does,now we can’t hold on against ten men.All the new guy’s did play pretty well but we just don’t know how to hold onto a lead once more.Time to get rid of this manager as we are running out of time and l fear it will be to late.Went back to old ways in the second half and same outcome, trying to be positive but slowly but surely this has to change or we’re going down. PezzaSaint added 17:33 - Feb 11 NJ has got to go! We had two shots on target, our hill and a second after we went behind. We allowed Wolves back in, it should never have happened! AmericanSaint added 17:44 - Feb 11 Wow, just wow. If the board doesnt sack Jones now, then they are admitting they planned for relegation since his hiring. HOW do you lose to 10-men when you are up 1-0. Unbelievable, but really doesn't surprise me. AmericanSaint added 17:46 - Feb 11 SaintPaulVW added 17:51 - Feb 11 Points were there for the taking but Jones fatally dithered in making subs to bring the points home. Playing 5 at the back against 10 men! and giving momentum back to wolves. As per usual players go into headless chicken mode rather than game manage. Positives glad to see Charly off the mark, Sulemana looks a real hand full and Tall Paul created havoc. Jones just hasn't got it. I'd prefer he goes now but not sure it would save us. Going to be a horrible atmosphere at St Mary's if he stays. COYR PeterL22 added 18:14 - Feb 11 Words fail me! Another classic performance (Bednarek OG a particular highlight). Not sure about the “great football “ mentioned in previous post - some bits were adequate at best. How can a manager playing Naitland-Miles as right centre back in a back five expect any respect! I gave up when Prowsy passed that free kick on the edge of penalty area after Wolves second goal. I can see no explanation for that. Jones should go back to The Valleys- if he can find a school to employ him as a PE teacher! You need to log in to participate in Your Report | Your Report |
