Boxing Day fixtures

[Terriertown]

If it’s your first then fair plays , my observations were more to the lack of penalties we should have had . apologises for aiming the rest at Wrexham.

It's not that it was soft today but it was a wrong call.

 

[Lamby]

I’ve had enough of watching Rossi fuck up after fuck up and keep playing, he’s so out of his depth but that clueless monk Keeps picking him! It’s hard to believe that I’m moaning more about him than Ryan bloody loft, the pair of them are utter shite.

Reyes doesn’t cover himself in glory either today, just crap for the first goal and not much better for the 2nd although for me it’s a foul on him.

We just can’t help but gift goals and unless something changes sharpish we’re going down.

UIE.

More of a the keeper jumping into the striker for me tbh

 

[UTFD]

Should have just watched Gavin and Stacey again

Hope you guys stay up as you're fairly local. Poor game overall today, despite the score we never really got going and relied on a few bits of indivudual quality. Second half we were woeful and spent most of it passing it around at the back and time wasting.

Nearly all our home games the opposition control possession but very rarely create anything , same again today. We are very solid and just don’t give teams much of a sniff . Good crowd today and the best team won because quite simply you couldn’t get near aour goal bar the one chance for your lot which was a blatant hand ball near the half way line.
Many teams have done similar loads of possession going nowhere not particularly dangerous, although I must admit your number 4 bates is it looked good. ( Barry didn’t even notice him) .

not arguing any of that, I just feel that a side willing to risk potshots from distance and then follow up with pace in case of a block/rebound would have had much more success than our tactic of continually running into your pre-planned cul-de-sacs time and again.

Yeap no arguments there . We aren’t that good and if we manage to get promoted will deffo be in a relegation battle next year, which is why I take every win with great pleasure and enjoy each one. All the best for the season , and you will be there or there abouts ( too 6 ) in the end.

 

[Gassy]

Oh dear.
Anyone but Niskanen would have scored from that header. We hit the post. One was off the line. Even ignoring the penalty for the tug that's 2 or 3.
Considering we had none of our first choice defenders playing i thought they dealt with you lot fairly well, certainly see why you're down there and we aren't.

So a header from the tightest of angles that obviously went wide, should be 1 up? Then a 40 yard shot that (on tv) looked to be going wide and curled in to hit the post should be 2? A minor tug on a shirt that wasn’t a penalty should be 3? Blimey don’t forget the corner where we cleared it out first man, that’s 4. Then of course there’s the time you looked at the keeper, that’s 5.

On reflection, maybe you’re right.

I won’t/can’t argue with the last comment, were awful. But if Exeter thought that was a well deserved and easy victory, it won’t be long until you pop down to join the fight. Let’s just hope your 2 wins against managerless teams has stopped your relegation form

I see Stansfield got his penalty early doors today. Not going to feel too guilty about ours.

Really wasn't a penalty was it. Seems refs get caught up in the big occasions at St Andrews

Just seen it. Birmingham player deliberately stops and makes a back Harry Kane style to tip the player onto his head. Dangerous as hell that stuff is and is usually given the other way.

 

[DaveBirm1875]

Blues 2-0 Brewers.

Was a fortunate penalty, but we will take it, Burton once again showed zero ambition to leave their own half, we really dont have much of a choice but to keep the ball, recycle it and go again, a comfy boxing day win, great to see Hansson back off the bench. On to a home game V Blackpool Sunday.

 

[Casey]

Camara's row with the fan was about receiving personal abuse. He is willing to accept criticism but not abuse.

I dont know what was said to him but pissing off your own players is never a good thing. It may have been chants of ' he won the ball, he lost the ball. Whatever it was, will it really make the work twice as hard in the next game? To be honest Camara, for all his faults, puts a shift in every game so would not be in my list of targets in any case.

Not a single player won the personal battles v Orient. Terminator said it should have been at least 4. It could have been 10 ! We played a defensive midfielder on the right and a right sided midfielder as a defensive midfielder. Currie had a field day down that side and as good s Barker was against Birmingham, he was as poor against Orient. The right winger couldn't have had more space if he was playing in the middle of the Sahara desert!

Non of this is to belittle what Orient did. They won all their battles, the manager sent them out with a workable plan and they fully deserved the win.

[Less than a mile (WAFC)]

Some teams do seem a little bit more blessed in the penalty decisions , I wonder why ? Think it’s natural to wonder if the authorities may prefer certain clubs get promotion . I’ve seen some shockers so far the question marks are deffo beginning to be asked.

That's the 1st penalty we have been awarded, not just this season, but in the last 10 months. Our last penalty was against Mansfield in March. But sound yeah whatever mate!

5th March 2021 the last time Huddersfield town had a home penalty awarded .
And I apologised for the above comment read the posts since that .

That's unreal....and I thought ours was a long stretch since getting one.

No one cares and rightfully so, our budget has weathered the storm but we have been battered by injuries, we had no option to do owt else today. Your number 4 was the best player on the pitch, what’s his story ?

They got one against us there when it was smashed at our player from 3 yards away. Clear handball...not

 

[Luke Imp]

We're so frustrating at the minute. More like our normal selves in the last two or three games and then we go to Shrewsbury and turn that sort of performance in. Not good enough in both boxes at the minute.

Mind you, we've never beaten an Ainsworth side and I can only remember one Boxing Day win in the last decade so the omens weren't very good!

Lewis Bate. Leeds released him in the summer, they paid quite a handsome fee for him when he was very young at Chelsea. Talent has always been there. We made him captain before he even kicked a ball for us. Quality player and will make us a lot of money I reckon.

 

[ForzaCounty]

I did like seeing Bate, who is five foot six, have the duty at corners to mark that Huddersfield player that was about six foot twelve.

If you know your taller players won't beat him to a header then may as well use them elsewhere.

 

[Pilot_Phonic]

One of the worst decisions I think I've ever seen, but will naturally take it. I didn't see the incident as my view was blocked from a Blackpool player, so I was appealing for a corner lol. Mullin goal was a worldie, mind.
