2nd best so far our passing is abysmal.

Re: Burton thread.
 

We have been poor first half :(

Re: Burton thread.
 

The only positive from that half is we are still 0-0 we haven't looked like scoring no width Butcher I think has give the ball away every pass big improvement needed second half.

Re: Burton thread.
 

Midfield are lacking in every department ... Injuries shouldn’t diminish basic skills .. Hoofball Alley today I’m afraid !..Sean’s role appears to be just getting under the feet !.
BUT .... ON STANLEY !.. ON !.

Re: Burton thread.
 

Do not get Phillips.....

Re: Burton thread.
 

Clean sheet another point safe now but a very poor game lacking quality on both sides and some terrible misses a draw probably the right result.

Re: Burton thread.
 

’Not fit for purpose’. springs immediately to mind Joe !
As for the match ?.. :mad::(:confused::confused:
But someone will say ‘ a point’s a point ‘ I suppose !.

Re: Burton thread.
 

Tbh, except for the first and last five minutes, Stanley looked like their priority was a clean sheet and, if it was, they achieved it.
Two mid-table teams, cancelled out each other’s efforts.
Pleased for Savin, he made some good catches, but wish he’d stick with kicking the ball from hand.
Some of the worst shooting I’ve seen for a while from both teams.

Re: Burton thread.
 

Maybe Phillips could accompany him down the road ?..
totally lacking in skill and know how !.

Re: Burton thread.
 

Glad I missed it by the sound of it

Re: Burton thread.
 

It certainly wasn't the most entertaining game, two teams struggling for form & on the whole cancelling each other out. Grateful in the end for a point & more importantly a clean sheet for Toby - if i could have one request, I'd ask that Mark Hughes (much as I love him) doesn't join Dan on the commentary again - bless him, his dulcet tones were enough to send anyone to sleep if the match itself didn't succeed in doing so

Re: Burton thread.
 

Just a quick mention for one of the opposition young center half Hayden Carter on loan from Blackburn looked a very good player today calm and assured hardly put a foot wrong and could pass it too unlike a lot of our side today who resorted to hoof ball and head tennis for large parts of the game.

Re: Burton thread.
 

Not the ‘prettiest’ of matches today. Glad we kept a clean sheet and I think we probably just deserved to edge the match with a victory if one of the very late scoring chances had gone in. I though that Harvey Rogers was our best player today. He did really well defending against their danger man Lucas Akins and also when going forward in our attacking movements. The return of Seamus added some consistency in midfield and Colby returning up front gave us some physical presence.
Another point edging us closer to certain safety.
ON STANLEY ON:alright:

Re: Burton thread.
 

Coley reckons he,s one of the best strikers of the ball in the side, bit harsh saying he's totally lacking in skill come into the side at a difficult time and laid it on for Colby to hit it over the bar today, can't compare him to Russell at least he looks interested whereas Russell looks completely disinterested.

Re: Burton thread.
 

Looks like I picked a great game to forget to set the alarm. Its good to get at least a point after last weeks down trou.
