Still got two games on today.

Crawley v Shrewsbury

Peterborough v Rotherham.

We're so tinpot we can't get games off for international call ups but Lancing (on the Sussex coast) playing in Isthmian League South East division can! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cjr3p81ddppo

Could be a sixpointer in Crawley even this early in the season.

Nice to see Will Swan score.

You wonder how long Fergie got left at Peterborough, watching it and they look a bit hopeless.

 

[Casey]

We ain't very good. Luckily, not or they.

After seeing us v Bolton and Mansfield recently this is a poor showing. If we can perform as we did in those two loses we were walking this game. Sorry Salop.

and a fairly even game, too.

Posh have pulled it back from 2 goals in a few minutes from corners. Rotherham defending has been utterly dreadful! Now 3-3

Shrewsbury 2-1 down to 10 men Crawley. Been a pretty even match, both teams looked alright.

 

[Pilot_Phonic]

Slops 2-2 now.

Crawley only got themselves to blame, stupid quick double yellow and some dreadful defending.

 

[Less than a mile (WAFC)]

Slops 2-2 now.

3-2, got to feel sorry for Crawley here. Harsh red card.

Ive been watching the posh game. Can't bring myself to watch the sister shaggers.

Fair play to Shrewsbury for the way they have harassed Crawley. Only watched 2nd half, but Crawley really can't defend set pieces.

What an entertaining game to watch. Lost count of goals in the 2nd half.

The issue for crewley is that they can’t play anything football related sadly.

Still plenty of time but it’s a bit bleak at present

We were doing ok until the sending off (I would have given the two yellows) . Then Elliot had a brain fart and replaced the midfield.

Good grief Mularky is a liability! Barker isn't ready for league football and after those subs, and where he played them, I'm not sure Elliot is either.

If we can reach January still in touch I'll be gobsmacked.

Bit dull then …

 

[AdamStag]

14 goals in 2 games is a decent return

We performed excellently in our called off game at Brum. Bossed the game, unlucky to come away with no points……but we are used to that. These international breaks are absolute pants, but I hate to think what would have happened today if we had actually played.

 

[Casey]

We let in 9 goals last week and scored 6.

I'm not a football coach but I have a sneaking suspicion of what area we need to work on.

Flint getting himself sent off was stupid. Pretty much the same foul within ten minutes. Obviously misses the next game but I think that makes five bookings. He may get another day or two off.

Elliot was unlucky with his first sub yesterday. He needed to make a change after a defender was sent off. We had two quick attackers on the pitch who could run into the channels. He took off Quiterna only for Heburn-Murphy to injured five minutes later leaving us with nothing in behind. Shrewsbury could then afford to push up on us, keeping us trapped in our own half.

The removal of the midfield after that was odd. Ibrahim was playing well and Darcy can keep hold off the ball so bringing on Camara (and playing him wide) and Bragg weakened us badly.

Bloody international breaks. We had two players called up. Niskanen hasn't been on the bench for either game yet there's no suggestion he's injured, Magennis didn't get on and is further down the pecking order than Jamie Reid!

What's the point.
