Broadbent23 added 22:05 - Oct 17 A mixed bag of football cliches. This match reaped what you sow. After the Lords Mayor Ball of last 10 days came our fall. We didn't deserve to win.

htb added 22:18 - Oct 17 Quite alarming how open we are and how easily they got through and behind us. Just not good enough and unless we can remedy this I can’t see us getting automatic promotion. Also too many of our forward players were completely anonymous.

cooperd5 added 22:21 - Oct 17 We looked 2nd vest almost all game. Slow, ponderous build up and easily done on the break. Riverside has a great atmosphere though

timleatham added 07:46 - Oct 18 Very entertaining game and we really went for it and had equal amounts of possession, shots on goal etc. However we lacked quality in final third and Jaden and Egeli struggled to get into the game and create much. The missed penalty was a big turning point. They created the better attacking chances and probably deserved to win. Palmer, O’Shea and Davis were the only players who in my view did well, and nice cameo from Nunez with a quality delivery from the corner that lead to the goal. Maybe time to start Azon up front.

melstpier added 12:50 - Oct 18 Very disappointed. No where near as good as v N. Philogene hardly touched the ball and Hirst was awful. Most of our attacking came for the left which made defending easier. Where is Wes? Mistake getting rid of Conner.

Maltster added 14:57 - Oct 18 Horst should never be allowed to take penalties. At best he only has a 50% chance of scoring hoping the keeper goes the wrong way. Every keeper in the league would have saved last nights effort Time to give someone else a chance to lead the attack

Linkboy13 added 16:06 - Oct 18 We are not strong enough for automatic promotion that's pretty obvious. Where's the leadership on the pitch since Morsy left gutless in midfield and no threat up front.

Billysherlockblue added 17:20 - Oct 18 Will someone tell kieran that with the players we have would it be too much to use our pace and move the ball quickly like every other team. Total sarcasm

Robert_Garrett added 23:09 - Oct 18 The international break is too long to maintain any sort of rhythm. Mind you I still didnt see it coming. The whole game changed with their goalies save of the century from Hirsty. Pity about Luango doing his knee ligaments for Millwall. He was doing so well. The subs were lively which brings up why the fear of shooting has crept into out game over the last two weeks? The best team still lost so roll on Tuesday and Charlton at home. Time to make amends?

Maltster added 10:13 - Oct 19 Let someone else lead the attack and give him several games to settle in. Horst has had enough time to show he is not good enough

WeWereZombies added 11:10 - Oct 19 I didn't even know that we had signed Horst Köppel let alone spotted him in the game. As has been mentioned elsewhere it looks like our attack is anonymous. Still impressive for a seventy seven year old to get a run out...
