Can I just say..

Nyatanga/Mvoto combo did Okay first half when we pressed them to keep punting it long.

Second haif were a different kettle of fish has the game plan weren`t being followed.

Cant for the life of me understand why Winnall was replaced yet Hemmings stayed on, not sure what Hemmings brings to the party at the moment.

 

I agree RE Hemmings, dunno what he brings but IMO Winnall was having a stinker, thought he was dreadful today

 

Winnall was poor, but the lad run himself into the ground first haif and did manage one or two good lay offs, whilst playin a role am sure he hasn`t played in the past.

 

I honestly forgot Hemmings was playing. Only remembered when they came out for 2nd half.

 

Was winnall our number 9 thst slow kid with a touch like an eelephant

 

In the first half our centre backs did ok because the ball never left their keepers feet

 

I want an eelephant, I want an eelephant, thats got to be one helluva long slimy trunk.

 

Then how did all the other players get a touch?

 

We had two ball on the pitch at one point remember

 

That ref would only play with the special ball though. Didn`t have a bell in it no wonder we hardly had possession of it.

 

Our left was the weak area - Nyatanga was poor, for a chap so highly rated a few years back. Hemmings offered no protection to our left back, who as a result was constantly over-run. Winnall should not have been on his own - its obvious that he needs to play with a big target man; he worked hard but with no return.

First half was better, with Cranie playing in midfield - but as others have said, in the second half we just fell asleep. Have always felt we needed a no-nonsense ball-winner in midfield.

Not going to Rochdale, but I think Danny will turn it around. It reminds very much of the season when Mel Machin spent the Carl Tyler transfer cash on, (was it 8 new players??), - and we were equally at sea...
