Tuesday 22 October fixtures

[folletto]

Gutting ending but we didn’t deserve anything from the game. Berry’s goals papering over the cracks of another pathetic away performance. Berry has to start games now, the two players in the more attacking midfield roles were awful again tonight.

12 games 13 goals shows our key issue. 1 first half goal all season. Keep setting up wrong and having to make changes at HT to bail us out

Dear lord what happened. I'm far away and no access to anything but a friend's texts.

Thanks Lincoln, always liked you.

[CTFC - Devils]

Now that’s how you win in this league, you learn to defend…not as eye catching as some of the recent defeats (if that makes any sense) but a real desire across the whole teams.
We had 13 corners to Readings 2 on Saturday and tonight we didn’t have any and conceded 10. Funny old game

 

[YEO YEO YEO]

Well done Crawley, fully deserved. Felt we were far too lethargic, you could see your confidence grow as you went ahead, getting first to the ball etc. Considering how poor you have been defending set pieces, our delivery was poor. You know its bad when Darikwa and Erhahon are off it. One of those games we just have to write off, move on and completely forget. Feel sorry for the fans making the long slog south.

 

[Luke Imp]

Can't make it up can you, you go nearly 10 months unbeaten away from home, navigate some of the big hitters in the league and your downfall is away at a Crawley side who are in stinking form, conceding goals for fun and you don't even score yourself!

Slightly baffled by Skubala moving Darikwa to LWB and then Jefferies into CM just to accommodate Ring at RWB. Too many positional moves there and also Hamilton and Draper in despite minimal game time recently. Perhaps too much change in the side but in all fairness, we needed to rotate a little.

6 conceded in two games is like a throwback to a couple of the seasons under Appleton.

No wins in 201 days then two in four days, both well deserved.
We are a better team than 23rd place implies...

 

[dan_wrexhamafc]

Could play until the weekend and I don't think us or Huddersfield would score. Think both keepers had about 1 save each too make. No Marriott or Flectcher left us fuck all attacking wise on the bench to try and change it

 

[thewwfc]

Well it’ll all go to pot at some point, but for now - woo.

 

[masi51]

meltdown on the Bolton Forum, not because we lost but the manner in which we lost
Offered nothing and got schooled by Birmingham who i do not think were at there best.
More Injured with Dempsey going off that is Baxter, Jones, Toal, Desmond, Gomes, Firino, Thomason and Dempsey injured off the top of my head and Forrester and Lolos just back

 

[Moomin]

Wow. Not sure where to start tonight. Reading bossed the first half and we gave them a goal inside 2 mins with suicidal defending and then they scored a fairly fortunate second from a rebound. Make no mistake, they were miles better than us in the first half and deservedly went in 2-0 up.

Second half, we brought on Magennis, Alli and Doyle and played one of the best halves I’ve seen in ages. Ilmari Niskanen was unreal at times and could have scored four. We dominated Reading and they were holding on. How we didn’t score with two point blank chances at the death I will never know!! Totally gutted but a spirited performance.

Good atmosphere tonight and a decent away following. Well done Reading, but not sure how we came out of that with nothing.

 

[BRFC_Gas]

Gas V Shrews. 2 poor sides which made for quite an entertaining game in a shitfest kind of way.

Its strange, we have been bad all season yet sit 3 points from the play off places

 

[E10rifle]

Blimey. We actually won. That’s easily the poorest we’ve played at home all season, and it’s the first time we’ve won. Funny old game. To be fair, as bad as we were, Rotherham were worse. Dreadful side who offered nothing.

 

[Pilot_Phonic]

Good win for Bristol Rovers, but then again Shrewsbury are in the process of changing their name to Shrewsbury Town Nil.

 

[The Terminator]

A very scrappy and much needed 1-0 win, we've played alot better than we did tonight and lost.

Either side of us scoring Rotherham missed two sitters through Humphreys and Nombe.

Game was very scrappy with very few chances, Rotherham I thought were very average, went down a bit too easily at times looking for free kicks I thought.

Josh Keeley in goal did well again I thought, Darren Pratley also put in a decent performance.

 

[IzzyFook]

Draw a fair result tonight vs Uddersfield, fair play to them - though how our singers never timed it right to outshout them at the point where they were singing....UDDERS - is a mystery!

<clap>clap>clap>clap>clap>clap>clap>clap>clap>...."UDDERS"!
....with;
<clap><clap>clap><clap>clap>clap><clap><clap><clap>....TITS!

Can see they'll be up there towards th'end, esp with that vocal backing they had tonight.
Best away fans so far at ours this season - even more so, considering it was a mid-weeker and filled their allocation....so take a bow if you were there tonight.
Good chatting to the four lads we were with in the pub prior to the match too....
