Good performance, wrong result 22:20 - Mar 19 with 4832 viewsMoonyDale

Very pleased with the lads tonight, a lot of good passing football played and they were second best by some way. Apart from 15 minutes at the start of the second half we were comfortably the better team. A wonder goal from Georgie (the dogs bollox) Donnely and a great MOTM showing from Edwards, Cav played a blinder and broke their play up well. Grimes was as infuriating as ever when he came on but all in all I left the ground upset we didn't take all the points when before the game I would have settled for the point. Couldn't tell if the subbing of Henderson was tactical or through injury, but thought it was strange at the time. More of the same Saturday please...

When I went on a few Gillingham forums last night, the general consenus was that a draw was a fair result!

I understand people see games differently but to suggest that we weren't deserving of the 3 points is laughable.

Cav stood out for me big time last night. We looked so much more solid with him in the team and as a result, the defence didn't have much to do at all (which makes the goal we conceded more annoying).

The modern pioneer of mealy mouthed bollocks.

First game i'd been to for over 3yrs due to circumstances...

I thought the crowd / atmosphere was absolutely dire!!

We played OK, much better than then apart from a 20 minute spell after half time where they looked dangerous... If we've been worse than this for the last few years then i'm glad I wasnt allowed to go coz we looked shyte on the wings, a left footer at right fullback, nothing big to hit from set pieces, all in all I was disappointed on my comeback game, this division is tripe if theyre top of the league & survival will easily be achieved... A good clearout of about 6 of the starters is needed...!!!

Liner was crap near the Sandy end, he spat towards the fans after taking some flack, & mouthed F*ck Off in our direction...

Nah, watch it closer. First of all Kevin McIntyre is completely out of position, stood next to Cavanagh as the ball goes out wide right to where McIntyre should have been so Sherrif goes out to deal with him. Cavanagh sits on the edge of the box as McIntyre sits in at centre back and Cavanagh is pointing for McIntyre to mark Antonio German who is heading into the box. The ball comes in and Phil Edwards is out-muscled by Kedwell who heads home from 6 yards between Lillis' legs.

The mistake for the goal for me is McIntyre being out of position, allowing the ball to go out wide where Cansdell-Sherrif has to go out to try and stop the cross.

Edit - Cavanagh doesn't need to mark anyone in that position because the two strikers in the box are being marked by McIntyre and Edwards with Joey Thompson as an extra defender while Cav sits in front of them. Not down to Cav that Edwards gets out-muscled.

The whole situation originates from McIntyre dealing poorly with a aimless high ball, then getting dragged into the centre of the pitch as a result.

The cross in the highlight immediately before Gillingham's goal is also a contender for cross of the season.

If that is correct about the assistant ref then a complaint should be sent to the relevant department....

Actually think McIntyre has been much improved of late but he does keep making similar positional errors - Caught far too central for Bristol's second on Saturday too.

Its up to KH to change that though.

Rose at left back, Rafferty (or Cav) on the right.

It wouldn't be much of a problem as its a coaching issue, but McIntyre's experience should mean it doesn't happen in the first place.

His general form is good and to be honest Rose was awful at Morecambe at LB. Last night was his best performance by a non-right footed mile.

I didn't see Rose in either game, but if he was signed primarily as a left-sided defensive player then that's where he should be played, or not at all.

I agree that McIntyre's form has picked up since KH arrived (or since he signed Rose) but he's been responsible for more defensive errors than anyone this season.

One can only surmise that a left-footed left-back is preferred to a right-footed right-back at right-back because the manager doesn't rate the right-footed right-back.

I think!
