No goal threat as per usual. As Dowie has said on Sky, " Barnsley having the bulk of possession, but not doing anything with it."
To be fair, apart from all 11 ball watching and chasing the ball after the free kick, our diving, our inability to pass a ball with any strength, lack of shots on goal, our constant giving the ball away in midfield, inability to run with a ball, drive wide, keep a clean sheet, score, create chances, cross a ball and work as a team..... then we aint done too bad .... and based on clear chances we should be 3-0 down
Not bring funny but why hasn't ref blown up as soon as it hits the bar? Time up. Deserved score but even so
Annoys me how refs just allow the attack to completion even though it’s well past time. If you say one minute then why play two minutes extra. There was no time wasting going on. He just let Boro take their shot, and then another one.
Tbf i think they have been tbe better side and deserve their lead but as you say you just cant see where a goal is coming from for us.
The urgency ,desire and passion has reverted back to before the break last season . Looks like the defending is following suit as well .
Its always a 'minimum of' added time. Anyway the ref isnt the difference with the teams. Someone needs to convince me that Ritzmaier works in midfield, styles works on the left wing back and that we dont need another striker. Seems like this team has far less balance than when we ended last season.
No complaints today with the ref - and if it was the other way round you would be furious and rightly so if the ref had blown for time as soon as the attack hit the bar. Its right that a foul committed with a good 30 seconds to go is allowed to play out to allow for rebounds Actually think the ref has favoured us this half - not that its doing us any good
4 Barnsley players all ran to the ball leaving Howson stood unmarked at the far post. Appalling defending
Today’s the sort of performance That makes me feel it would be no bad thing if GS goes. Lovely bloke but the football is dreadful.
We will have to try and see out a 1 nill defeat now as the attacking players Struber has brought in like Ritsmare and Freezer are not good enough and the guys some fans panic about us selling are not as good as they think they are.
