Spit_It_Out Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 its far too early for utter nonsense like this!Dont rate Balmer at all never rated him last season and this season i suspect more of the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orinoco Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Time wasting of the scale today. Bet we get 3 mins on injury time tops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Water break. Crickey the games hardly ran for more than 2 mins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texanwellfan Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Every team wastes time. The trick is to not be in a position where time wasting affects you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orinoco Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 2nd half has been a shambles. No football played. They do know we need 3pts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texanwellfan Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 How much time was added on? I was expecting more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy H Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 4 mins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 2 mins water break. At least 30 seconds wasted every time ball went out park. At least 8 subs. Yet we get less than 4 mins extra. I know it's early doors, but that performance confirms guys like balmer odonnell gordon need moved on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 They are even wasting time with the penalties. Throwing ball away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 A decent workout and a good demonstration of our defensive deficiencies to the new manager. Hot day on a plastic pitch was always going to be a difficult watch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orinoco Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Unless we get some proper defenders in, it's going to be a long season. Balmer Gordon and ODonnell are so called experienced pros, but struggled against part time boys. The fans should be reimbursed because that was not a game of professional football in that second half. You would be lucky if 15 mins of that was in play.

El Grew Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Not a great performance to be sure but the manager has now seen in a competitive match, just how poor our central defenders are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And boy was that delivered. Should be good to see the next game though as it should hopefully show us as fans, how the manager saw that game and what changes he makes. As long as I can see a steady improvement in each of these league cup games, I’ll be ok with that. But yes today was a tough watch. I don’t want to now comment on who I thought was rotten (there were a few) as I’ll be accused of being a panty wetter. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Aye if this wasn't a eye opener about our defence then I don't know what is I really don't know what the answer is cause most of them will be playing alot of football for us next season. Maybe a defensive coach?Who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read our new manager has a reputation for being a good defensive coach, but still think he needs better defenders to work with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 You can say what you like about Halliday, but he can certainly be trusted with a penalty. 😄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
