    Really? They are in second gear because that's all they need. We don't look like scoring if we played until next season. Really not sure what you are watching.

    I'm at the game and he was offside. Also double checked with ifollow on my phone. 100% off

    We need to pepper their goal with shots on target. We're still in this but we're lacking someone to take it by the scruff of the neck and force the goal like they did!

    Make their keeper work.

    Not had a save to make.

    Offside for the goal? Am I right? Can anyone who's watching on the screens clarify?

    They've been really poor with the ball aside from the (likely offside) goal. We are struggling to create any decent opportunities though.

    They look like well-drilled, seasoned pros against our rag-tag collection of triers. Just enough of the dark arts about them and a centre-half we'll not get past if we played all night.

    I think we are the better side

    Concern that the ref hasn't given yellows for clear yellows and pulled play back.

    The only thing I'd change is reduce pumping it anywhere near Sontos. We haven't a prayer winning in the air

    Get it down the wings, or on the floor more.

    Come on, we can do this.

    This is a group of players that have had every ounce of creativity and pace coached out of them. Sacking Collins has had no impact whatsoever. If we somehow manage to fashion a goal from somewhere, I’ve got no doubt they could change gear and get another. Any kind of attack and we just crumble. Any kind of attack from us is just a speculative punt.

    We were marginally the better team there but the quality of both sets of strikers has shone through.

    Why kick it long and not play Cosgrove? It's almost brain dead tactics hoping Cole is going to win a chance header against a dominant centre back in Santos.

    1st half possession:
    Reds 20%
    Whites 20%
    Santos 60%

    MoM so far and barely moved 10 yards all game.

    Please Lord Jalo before Cosgrove, cos he will bully Cosgrove just as easily as he did Cole.

    we've played reasonably well although we havn't had a single shot on target. And most of the hoof balls aren't even staying on the pitch. They have been absolute ***** other than the goal

    That half typified our squad and season for me. We have a competent midfield sandwiched inbetween a lightweight forward line and a haphazard back line. The gaps between our thirds in both attack and defence are too large, and we're too ponderous on the attack, there'll be a chance for a quick break and the player will stop and play it square.

    By the way, we've been far from terrible, we just don't have a great deal of quality. You can't blame the players for being poor, you have to look at the recruitment.

    Anyway, all that said, we can get a goal here 100%

    I don't think they are in second gear. I think they are as bad as us, in fact the quality of their passing has been worse, save one moment of good football which led to the goal.

    It's very cagey but we need to be better in the final third as we look clueless once there and the torrid long balls and lofty balls into the box have been very poor.

    Be interested to see their goal on tv, looked offside from the east stand upper - I am in line with ponty 18 yard box.
