If JB not happy with ox then get another keeper in. That crowd today shows that neutrals also want to come and see us play but pointless if you have a poor keeper Ward is doing basic stuff with the ball at his feet. I’m pretty sure Ox could manage that and main thing is that he gives to one of our players then they can do the footy stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost possession in final 3rd as keeper panicked about playing it out from back and subsequently flapped and missed the cross. Was similar goal conceded in schools football every week. Badly need to address goalkeeper issue. That's 4 points cost now. Also O'Donnell looked uncomfortable at times having to pass instead of launching balls. You watched a different game from me. Our new style really suits S O'D. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago Yeah the only thing SOD sadly has against him this season is father time like we all do but a good player to come on if Johnny K is cooked for the last 10-15 mins. Been Impressed how SOD has started the season can't really fault him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 5 or 10 yard passes he's doing in front of him or to side. Please let ox start next. Wards ruined my last 2 weekends 😭 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt very much JBA is telling Ward to make a James Hunt of it by failing to catch a ball under no pressure at all. The way Ward is playing is very badly, and cost us 4 points in a week, he needs dropped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ward is surely playing the way JBA wants him to. I don't think JBA would want Ward to play a style that cost us 3 of last 4 goals conceded. Feel sorry for Calum but if folk are going to give Stama a hard time for not scoring then ward has to carry can. However.....feelgood factor under JB is great and give me that style of football ahead of the visiting walloper manager today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm sure if JBA thinks he needs dropped - he'll drop him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's something ox could do. We need to have the basics of a keeper. Handling balls and not dropping them. Or misjudging them. Stama done well today I thought. Held ball up well and work rate 5 star.

Keeper should have basic handling skills and judgement for cross balls and shots. Ward has ok reflexes but I'm struggling to see what else. Can't command his area and not great with his feet.

I want to like ward but we can't keep dropping points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So negative on here. Yeah today was a sore one but it's done. In fact we've not lost in ten since he took over 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
