Bradshaw. Continue the forward momentum. Edit: Lets stop arguing. I'm off out now. Davies isn't as good as he used to be, and the jury is still out on Jose. Agree to disagree?
You harped on and on how we couldn’t possibly get a better keeper than Davies and all he needed was pushing. He’s been dropped and had his kick up the arse and he’s still not good enough. What’s the excuse now? It’s certainly not Townsend fault.
I’ve criticised Jose’s subs in recent games but not today. The subs didn’t cost us. Moncur’s not got 90 mins in him & looked absolutely knackered when he had to sprint a few minutes before. I don’t even think Davies is to blame & I’ve been critical of him. I’d need to see the goals again but from my position you have to say hats off to the striker & also to Brownhill, two terrific finishes right in the corners. If we are looking to blame people then we have to look at ourselves & the referee. We had the chances to kill the game off. Moore could & should’ve had at least 3 if not 4 goals today, Potts should’ve scored from Moncur’s cross. I don’t want to blame either of them because they did well especially Moore who’s all round game was superb. What’s cost us is our own finishing & the referee not sending their centre back off in the first 10 minutes. It’s as simple as that. As well as Moore I think special praise goes to McBurnie who was superb despite playing out of position & a bit deeper & also to Liam Lindsay who saved us twice with two superb clearances in the second half. Don’t think we should be playing the blame game today. We were better & if we’d played like that against Burton & Norwich at home we’d certainly have more points
Theres no doubting that his changes brought pressure onto us late on and we simply can't defend 1 goal leads. BUT, I certainly don't blame Jose for the number of gilt edged chances we've pi*sed away today, that Potts goal should have made it 4 or 5 and remember they should have been down to ten men from the 5th minute onwards. And whether we've gone defensive again or not theres absolutely no way to defend the garbage levels of 'so called' goalkeeping in our squad.
Get a grip hecky had a terrible record at one point 1 win in 12 and 0 goals from open play in 9 but he is from tarn so it's okay
Why cant you admit Davies is cack? You have a personal vendetta against Townsend yet Davies is just as bad.
Davies cost us two points. Woeful keeping. The reason he took a striker off and brought a defender on was because Moore was ****** and mcburnie who was playing in midfield moved upfront where so many people have called formhim to be played. The defender then took mcburnies place as a winger. Mccarthy has played the position several times before he came to us. Here is a heat map of where mccarthy has played, it shows how often he is in an advanced winger like position. Compared with fryers for example
The subs didn’t invite the pressure. We were 2-1 up with 5 minutes of injury time. The opposition is almost ALWAYS going to attack you and apply pressure during that time. More often than not they going to get one more chance to score. When this happens you need the defenders to do there job. McCarthy made the same error he has made all season but that is not Jose fault. He put a right back on to defend that position and the right back failed to do it. You then are relying on the keeper to make the save and he’s not good enough to make it. You can’t blame anyone in the box because it was a brilliant run from Brownhill who ran from right to left.
This sums up my feelings. Potts and Moore both missed chances they would gobble up 9 times out of 10. Otherwise they had good games, Moore especially. I thought that Moore was a real handful today.
I felt more confident we'd win games when Spackman and Anderson were in charge. Whoever thought he was the man for the job, should stay away from the next appointment, which should be in the summer. Fryers should be sixth choice full back. Abysmal again Millwall and gets another chance to be ****. Found a way to have Gardner and Williams on the pitch together, which stiffled us. Took off Moncur who was arguably MOTM at that point. Went defensive with McCarthy when we aren't capable of defending. Once again had our star centre forward anywhere but central. When he's gone after two minutes like in the rest of his past positions, it's us as fans who stick with our club and will have to hope we rise once more.
I understand that happens late on in matches Chris, especially to us actually and Im not blaming Jose. Hes entitled to expect the defenders and keeper to do their jobs when it comes to that sort of stoppage time bombardment. And sadly they (non of his signings by the way) let us all down again.
