Just Back 15:08 - Sep 21 with 11054 views | EN_Ranger | Well that was boring. I’m a big Marti fan, think he’s been great for us but I don’t understand the current tactics. Either play 2 up front with wingers or play a midfielder who can pass it forwards. Cook to Clarke-Salter must have been the most common pass we made. Also, time to stop playing Dunne at fullback, it worked last season, it’s not working this one. It’s not all negative, Frey was good and scored a great goal, Nardi and Paal played well too. Just so so boring! [Post edited 21 Sep 15:10]

Just Back on 20:08 - Sep 21 by loftboy | My season ticket this year is in the loft safe standing so getting a completely different view of the game from where I was in the west paddock, agree with all of the above, thought Frey played well despite having the shirt pulled off his back the entire game. Did we get away with one when Smyth appeared to handle in the box? |
We definitely away with one when Field tried to save Whatmore's goal! Think it was already in though. | | | |

Just Back on 20:23 - Sep 21 by stainrods_elbow | Bizarre to blame Dunne in that role (who did so well there last season and nearly scored again today) as a main factor in our performance when the issues are clearly (mostly) in midfield. |
Not blaming Dunne at all, it's not his fault he is being played there. The team is lopsided with him as a right back as he rarely gets forward as he isn't quick enough. Paal moves into midfield, but Dunne doesn't hence lopsided. It probably says a lot about MC mindset keeping Dunne in to help counter the opposition arial threat. I like my fullbacks to get forward, like Bardsley. This team has the ability up top, but we look a little frightened to take the handbrake off. | | | |

Terrible internet connection which was just as well considering what was on offer. We did catch the last 15 minutes or so which I have to say worried me . Get Chair back and quickly. | | | |

Just Back on 07:41 - Sep 22 by GosportHoops | Frey was magnificent, didn't stop working got a goal looked completely up for it. Frustrating game, we've had a few with Marti! Boro and Wednesday at home last season were poor Hull away last season. Its up and down but at least the downs are bringing a point so far this season! The football served up yesterday was pretty dire though. I have a feeling we'll come out with alot more energy Saturday |
Fat fingers, mate, sorry, meant tobe an up vote not a down one... | |

Just Back on 11:52 - Sep 22 with 1673 views | davman | Something is not quite working at the moment. Could be the new boys bedding in could be that we don't have someone who can hold on to the ball (even if it is for too long according to the LFW forum). Take away the safe side to side YAWN inducing passing and we'll have THE worst %pass completion in the league a) because we are static in front of JCS and Cook when they have the ball and b) as someone else posted on this thread, weren't take risks until we are one down. Hoping Marti finds a solution quick, because it looks to me that we have become predictable and without dynamic, adaptable players we'll needs plan B.. | |

Just Back on 15:49 - Sep 22 with 1455 views | derbyhoop | It's noticeable how often JCS passes the ball sideways, but rarely forwards. Unless it's to the wide man hugging the touchline. 10 yds forward | |

Each post has voting buttons - an up and a down either side of the number at the bottom of each post. You can click on them to "vote" for each post. I meant to up vote yours, accidentally hit the down one instead (fat fingers, small phone!). Hope that clears it up! | |

If you have accidentally downvoted you can still upvote (so you end up with 2 votes, one up one down) effectively cancelling your downvote. | |

Give it another couple of games without a win and we'll have the answer. | |
