Poor Management. 21:11 - Apr 27 with 3120 views | oddjob007 | I’m sorry, but BBM lost us 2 points tonight. Why were we not making a sub every 2 mins to waste time in the last 6 mins? Why did we not put Humps or Lund at the back? Why did Baah come on in the 6th minute of 6 minutes added time? Beesley was clearly knackered. Why did he not come off? Players gave everything. Jim is a liability. Lynch had superglue on his feet and was stuck to the line everytime a ball went in the area but redeemed himself with the penalty. The Conor’s both looked handy. We need some decent defenders that stay fit, but otherwise i think we’ve got half a chance next season. | | | | |

So many little things add up over a season but our inability to see and deal with the obvious is the reason we are where we are. | |

That was excellent. Some grafter is Beesley. | |

Will be some asset next season, regardless of the division we're in. Getting better and better and started to add goals to go with his hard work. Considering where he's come from and the fact he's still learning, the future's bright. | | | |

You don't really need to put the word "game" in that last line | | | |

It shouldn't need the manager to explain to the players how to manage a game in the dying stages. Poor decision making was our downfall. | |

If all of us who know so little about football can figure out the bleeding obvious it makes you wonder why the smart, highly paid, hugely talented people who are proper "football people" don't seem to be able to doesn't it? | | | | Login to get fewer ads

The players are surely playing the way the 'philosophy' has been drilled into them, but it's been shown to be folly. | |

No and the basic defending is down to them. But the substitutions and inability to prevent those crosses by ensuring we had two wide midfield players as well as the two wingbacks pushed back into natural fullback roles is on the manager. Those are his choices. That’s where the game was won and, er, drawn. Basic. | |

Poor Management. on 10:39 - Apr 29 with 1804 views | RooleyMoorBlue | As others have said it's basic football knowledge when defending a lead in the dying minutes. Blocking and corner flags. Don't allow them to cross, they won't score. Hitting the ball long towards the corner flags is the easiest way to waste time legally. An extra defender in injury time would have allowed 2 wide players to stop crosses, but having said that we allowed them time to cross all night and have done most of the season, with a few feeble token gestures at stopping them. McNulty did a decent job tonight, but up against Piggott he suffered, as have many better defenders this season. I lay the blame for throwing 2 points away, firmly at the managers door. It was inexcusable. | | | |
