peterbourgh game.
- Thread starter cashman
- Start date
Not able to watch on iFollow tonight.......BBC Stats suggest its all Peterborough...and Coyle has pucked up an early yellow card
But then what do I know. Goal by Harvey
1-1 now.
1-1 ht
If anybodies watching the game. How are we playing?
Now losing 2-1 on 51 minutes. Poku scores for Posh
Sitting 5th from bottom in the table just 1 point above the drop zone. Not a good place to be unless its after the last game of the season.
19 minutes to go and a defender and 2 midfielders substituted. No Delfonso or Sissay? Just can't understand it.
Both bench strikers on with 4/5 minutes of normal time to go. Anybody else understand this?
All over lost 3-1. I await the managers view with interest.
Whadd’ya mean anyone else? Are there two people who understand it?
No. Why sign striker cover if we aren't going to give them a proper chance?
Well !.. That was a totally inept display from a squad of sub-quality players .
A colander type defence which the opposing forwards just strolled through and should have scored a lot more goals .
A lot of running but little else from a midfield who were not in the same league as their opposing counterparts.
Forwards who carried no threat whatsoever to Peterborough's defenders ... two wingers who in spite of what some will say, are ready to be put out to grass .
All in all, one or two more repeats of tonight's dire performance will see the Reds shuffling off to the depths of League 2.
I know that uncharacteristically I seem to be our forum's moaner -in-chief these days, but I am so disappointed at what I see emanating from our team and their management.
Just my opinions folks , possibly the ramblings of what Cashy would describe as an Owd Fart !..
ON STANLEY.. ON TO GREATER THINGS !... PLEASE !.

Well I think the current formation is proving it doesn't work against the to-half teams in League 1. They just have too much quality and strength in depth available to come off the bench. Leigh and the supporting 4 attacking midfielders aren't able to produce goals in any quantity. I would go with a 4-2-3-1. With two holding midfielders in front of the back 4 and with Delfonso and Sissay in the front 4. Probably Sissay up top as our target man. That way Rogers and Clarke can still get forward but we still have cover for the remaining 2 centre backs with the holding midfielders. I know we lose Coyle and Tharme on Saturday due to "too many yellow cards", but there are options for cover. Anyone else got any thoughts?
