Some good, some bad

I was really pleased with how the team battled yesterday especially in the first half. I thought we were really good. had great energy and really should have gone in two up. We were at it. The ref had a shocker. I can't understand how he was seeing things. Neil got away with a lot of things yesterday. In a way it's awful to see but if you're a Bristol fan you re left smileing. It's something we don't have in our team. A lot of teams have that. Parker did it a few week ago now. Joey Barton might be avadible in January, now people might not like him it's something he does better than most.

Second half we just didn't do ourselves any favours. Playing another player into trouble with poor passing. Leaving the midfield wide open without that disciplined player just to keep it tight. Spot the danger, reconise it and see it out. We've had problems with this since the opener at Portman road. Need to learn quickly because we could be looking pretty good in the league table if we did. The one game this happened and we kept it tightish was at Preston were we should have gone behind but we didn't and we have that magic from AA and it was game over after that.

I thought we stopped trying to make it hard for them to play. Winnall got around their deep midfielder in the first half. In the second that didn't happen. I put before that to me he lets things get to him and maybe that happened. Inturn he stops talking and demanding from the team and it goes downhill. I was amazed they didn't take him off yesterday and took Watkins off. Then went to a 433 for a small amout of time with armstrong wide, hammill central and winnall upfront.

At the back. Another good day for Davies and Bree. Two who are destined for bigger and better in the future. Loving seeing bree again. You can see he's getting more confident again. Strong in defence but different class on the front foot. I'm amazed how good he runs with the ball. It doesn't seem to slow him down.

Armstrong was really good all game really. He's a real danger in behind with that one thing that gives defenders nightmares, pace. unbelievable pace.

Now more negatives.

For me the centre backs. Now I thought Jackson played pretty well but whats he doing for the pen.
McDonald, you're 6'3/4 why were you getting beat so often in the air. Getting caught under the ball. Now he's a decent player Wilbraham but he's done you again and again.

To finish off, what would have happened with Hourihane and Roberts in the team? I think if he had that first half with those two, we win it. Hourihane could have got himself sent off maybe but one of there players would certainly have gone. Roberts doesn't get done in the air like that. He stays strong and wins the ball.

Move onto next week, a big game I think for Barnsley. Burton played a 343 against Burton with O'grady and Akins wide.

 

Did Burton win? Or did Burton win?

 

That comment more about Burtons last home game against Birmingham on tv.

They've lost 1 in 5 at home which was against Brighton. 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. Beat Birmingham, Cardiff and Derby at home. Two of those on tv and they played really well.

 

No mention of Andy Yiadom then, who I thought looked a class act yesterday.

 

I was pointing a positive about Hourihane. I like it that sometimes he can get into battles with players. Peterborough last season, Reading this to name two that he could have got sent off in. He didn't and oppo did. If it doesn't affect personal game after it's brilliant. Every good team will have one or more that does it.

I'm not sure why you keep attacking my posts like you do.

 

you going to Burton next week?

 

Kin hell, praise for Roberts

 

You are entitled to your opinions like anyone else but when you post stuff like this you make yourself look a complete and utter tosspot.

I'm going to Burton btw. I went to Brentford too.

 

What does that matter about yesterday's game? I'm confused.

Although I can predict who played well and who played badly in your eyes already!!

 

Joey Barton; are you being serious?

 

Proof we've all fallen for his joke? Surely nobody in their right mind, or even semi right mind, would suggest Barton as a signing!

 

We've probably already gone for a Burton with your opinions.

"BIGGER and BETTER" my arghhs

 

Seems like people just want to attack hemsworth's post regardless of what he's actually written now. Can't see anything contentious about what he's posted and he's actually praised conor and Roberts. Something which he has previously received criticism for not doing.

Even if Joey Barton is 'avadible' I don't think he's available to a club which I've been told doesn't have anyone on more than £8k a week seen as he's allegedly on £20k a week at Rangers.

Also bare in mind that our biggest asset is our team spirit so do you really want to bring in a player who's caused trouble everywhere he's been except Burnley on twice the wage of anyone else? Is that what we really need?

 

People just want to get at me. I could have guaranteed one of about four or five people would have been first to post and popped at me.

Its also what people do at Barton. Doesn't matter what he says or does people will just criticise them. It's just what happens. I posted about what I posted. I post what I see. Maybe I don't put things over in the best way. Maybe I didn't put about hourihane in a bad way although reading it back I'm not sure why once again fireds gone in at me.

 

Fired has started using the Royal "we" when he trawls your post to find summat to be nasty about.

Which means he thinks he can talk for all of us. Although he can't.

So don't worry Hemsie - keep posting as you see it.

 

To be fair Fi this is one of his more balanced reports I think. I don't post much more cos of his dross but I can't fault him too much on this occasion.
