Match Day Thread

You look like dying then, because the goal stood. Cheating keeper gets caught out but let’s defend him eh

 

This all day long

 

The keeper didn’t go down because of any collision. He went down because he decided to throw himself to the ground at slight contact, in order to waste more time. Then the idiot dropped the ball

 

Honestly was waiting for it to be chalked off despite it not being a foul really but just used to seeing what normally happens. Glad it went our way today. Will go against us another day.

 

What collision? There was no collision, he fell to the ground like a pantomime dame and lost control of the ball in doing so.

 

Switched off at half time to watch the Great British Bake Off final. Just seen the goal. Absolutely barmy, never seen anything like that in my life. Never in a million years a foul.

 

Correct. He has cost them a point. It’s rare in professional football these days to see cheating punished. That why that goal, and the reaction of a dreadful Wycombe team, was a joy to watch. The only joy in a dreadful evening of ‘football’.

 

We were still ***** though. Worthy of 3 points but still I can't fathom what we are trying to do.

Seriously underwhelming what we are serving up. And that rests at Collins. Not happy at all. Had that not happened at the end to give us something to talk about, this place would be in melt down. Me included

 

Those comments are spot on. The Wycombe fans have just gone up 100% in my estimation.

 

Couldn’t believe the ref didn’t blow for a foul at the game (mainly because any time a keeper gets a touch it’s a foul) but watching it back, what is their keeper doing? Throwing himself to the ground again and basically just dropping it.

Not a great performance at all but we’ll take it.

 

Achingly dull match.

Ref was refreshingly laissez-faire, so the goal (foul-or-no-foul) was in keeping with the absence of his whistle.

I have yet to see anything that represents our coach's style of play - something that represents where this team might be upwardly going.

Let's face it, we were mid-table gunge again at home. Styles needs replacing with a runner in the New Year.

Tonight neither team deserved 3 points.

 

That was not a spectacle to get fans back to watching football.
Wycombe were time wasting after 30 minute's.
When their player went down faking injury they had the ball ,didn't kick out for the game to stop .
When we eventually got possession, screaming for the ref to stop the game.
This epitomised their game plan.
The ref was very weak ,however let's not forget the build up to the keeper incident.
Went down injured faking this to waste time ,ref stops play drops the ball at the keepers feet.
Does nothing until Cozzy chases him down ,picks the ball up and do what all goalies do drop to the floor with minimal contact ,ball bounces free Cozzy gifted open nets justice.
Poor game ,however we need to play with more tempo.
We had a 10 minute spell then went back to dull passing around.
Jesus Collins let's get back to some high tempo football like last season.

 

There were loads of man handling incidents in the game, the majority of which the ref let go and didn't penalise so I am lost as to how their keeper thought he would win a foul.

 

The four arm smash on Jalo after nutmegging him ,just the yellow.

 

It was a clear 2 handed shove from Cosgrove. Surprised it didn’t get chalked off.

 

The stats will show that we controlled the game from start to finish but objectively the overall performance was lacklustre. We were poor in possession and devoid of creativity for large parts of the game.

I’d like to think that once the jubilation has subsided in the dressing room, Collins and his staff won’t be happy with the rinse and repeat performance.

We have an excellent squad that’s vastly superior to most at this level yet we’re still operating in first gear; something needs to change.

 

Smack in front of us in East Lower near Ponte end,ref got it spot on ,how many times dose things go against us.

 

Really , it was in front of me minimal contact.
He went down like a shot dog.

 

Doesnt matter if the contact was a fingering, you can touch the keeper in his 18 yards when he has control of the ball. Keeper moved less towards Cosgrove than the other way. Served him right but they all do it and i would be ******* furious along with the rest of the

There was contact. It was light but still contact.

I’d be slagging our keeper off he did the same. Still doesn’t mean by the rules of the game it wasn’t a foul.
