Match Day Huddersfield vs Bristol City

[Aaron-Bcfc]

Deserved to lose that. Crap atmosphere in the away end, embarrassed by Huddersfield's excellent home support.

 

[BCFC David]

Cracking start, get fucked Golbourne.

We're so unbelievably wank on the break, it's no surprise we're picking up so few points on the road. Decision making in the final third is dreadful.

Hardly surprisingly is it. The lack of pace in our team is pathetic. Atleast we have a 2million striker sat on the bench.

Nope, but even forgetting the lack of pace the decision making in the final third is appalling.

Got a £1.5m quick, young, promising winger sat on the bench and all.

Yeah, lets make a like for like substitution when what we currently have isn't working.
Fantastic idea.

 

[JJH]

Well done David, you've started him off now...

 

[AnkleBiter]

Obviously no arguments here then about the result! That was definitely us on a good day, so good to watch. Concerning thing has to be that we are still yet to win by more than one goal this season despite being comfortably the better side. We got the rub of the green with the winning goal but certainly not with the ref, again, but that's just the norm. Pretty sure Bristol City have a few more gears in them, created nothing, could see the likes of Tomlin trying things but it just wasn't happening.

Like for like? He could play as a number 10, wide of a front three? What are you talking about? I merely questioned why we arnt giving our near record signing a chance.

FFS it's not as if I slagged Mark Little off.......

A similar in style player to Tammy, wouldn't make much difference if he came on for him, or Wilbs for that matter as then we'd just have 2 quick players having the ball hoofed to them.

At least the changes (Reid for Wilbs) brought a change of shape and change of tact.

Surprising you didn't slag Little off, I know he is your go to scapegoat after all, out of interest who is it when he doesn't play? I know Pack and Freeman are popular ones.

 

[BCFC David]

Just not a change of result, ahwell two out of three ain't bad I guess......

No scapegoating from me, just say it how I see it. I question your sanity if you think Little is good enough for this level........that being said yesterday was blatantly his fault. Frankie's ( oh he's not good enough either) been watching Little's first touch and thought that was how it was supposed to be done. Fool.

Fielding's a crap keeper as I've always said. Half decent shot stopper but can't kick, can't catch, can't punch and always has a mistake in him as shown yesterday.

Little hasn't actually been that bad lately, I'm not saying he's good enough for this level but we've had worse individual performances in the past couple of months.

 

[BCFC David]

I actually can't remember being too harsh on him lately, as you say he's not been as bad as some and not been at fault. He just has his moments. passing in to touch, completely missing the ball, ala Reading. Glad Matthews seems to be getting fit. Seems City 169 has a bee in his bonnet, or overly sensitive, take your pick.

Little has been far From our worst player this season.
He can do a job in this division and we obviously need better than him, but when he was in good form (start of the season) we were playing well and getting results.

We brought in better than Little (Matthews) but for whatever reason he wasn't fit until recently.

I have some sympathy for Little because of the idiots who blindly shout abuse at him- Brighton was a prime example, a tremendous pass was sent through aiming for Baldock, if Little doesn't get a touch then Sammy is 1 on 1 with O'Donnell. At full stretch he gets a touch to stop this, but because our midfielders (Smith and GO'N I think it was) were slow to react and barely moved, a Brighton player pounced on the ball even though after the interception it landed about 10 yards from anybody.
Who got the abuse? Little. Not the player who conceded possession cheaply before hand, or the midfielders for not doing anything, but the player who denied a clear goalscoring chance.

I reiterate we do need a better RB than him, but that doesn't mean he is to blame whenever something goes wrong and he is on the pitch, that is why I will defend him when it is warranted.

I will also give criticism where it is due to whichever player it is.

Frankly felt most of the team were poor yesterday, Flint had a mare at times. Matthews was run ragged on the first half- though he grew into the game and got a lot better, and Frankie and Smith were both very poor for the second goal.

Not really, you brought up Little here.

I will criticise or defend any of our players when it is warranted.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Just seen that Van La Parra roll around after Freeman's tackle, VLP should serve a suspension for that reyt pathetic.

Best bit was when he rolled back again

I'm expecting an Oscar nomination for him for that.

 

[TomPNE94]

I thought it looked great

 

[AnkleBiter]

He's not too popular with the traditionalists (or the 'GER IT FORRARD' brigade as they're also known) because of those kind of antics. Most of us just laughed.

I did as well, would've been fucked off if Freeman got sent off though, which is what your fans were calling for!
