The best Footballing side I have ever seen, some of their Football was just superb and a joy to watch, nice 1 touch football.
Disagree 90% of it was all side to side waste of time ballax. They out footballed us admited. But a bit strong to say 'the best footballing team ever'.
Bit far to say ever. They keep the ball well, and their movement is good, but just like last year, they were toothless.
Totally Agree. They are one hell of a footballing side. To go there today and get three points was nothing short of a miracle. In parts we played well, we had enough chances to see off the game. their wingers ran our players ragged. It was embarassing at times to see how easily they passed the ball 'man to man' and arrived in such goal scoring situations, in very dangerous situations. Moore was immense - like a brick wall - I am sure the Donny players will despise him through and through, Hamill scored the goal and from that point there was only one team in the game Donny heads dropped and they found it difficult to get the ball. It was an awful, squeaky game, nails nibbled and heart pressure up, but we won. A very happy and joyous night tonight for me. Yoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooreds!
Think you're being way too generous Thought they had moments of decent football, BUT no end result & I cant ever remember thinking "oh no they're going to score" ... (maybe that was the beer!) After the goal they fell to pieces - some of their passing was Sunday league.... 4 or 5 passes were 20 yards off the mark. The shooting was worse. Their performance reminded me of any Reds games in years gone by- a few pretty moes but no threat. Sure they are trying to play the game the right way, but I wasn't that impressed by them. We won, when for 75 mins we were below par. You Reds!
RE: Totally Agree. I can, all ended up outside ground in 1 of those pitches lol, only had2 decent shot which cannoned of bar (and the brilliant save from Steele) other than that all shots were high and wide</p>
Cardiff. Whenever I see us play them they always seem to be the best side in the division. Donny's 'fantastic' football was the sort of 'fantastic' football Diego Leon used to play. Quick sideways passing.
I have to disagree with that Tina ..... To say it was embarrassing how easily they passed and found themselves in goalscoring positions is just wrong. They passed and moved very well but they played all they're football infront of our back four and yes, they hit the bar from 20 yards and also forced Steele into a good save from a well worked header but other than that they actually created nothing. That's a good effort for an away team in my book. We've now won 3 games on the bounce against pretty decent teams and you can't have been at the same game as me today if your making comments like that.
It's a complete waste of time if you can't score Toothless, just as they were last season when we played there. It was like watching us on many occasions.
Paul 'o' Driscoll, is that you??? They were good, but to say they were the best footballing side you'd ever seen must mean tht you've either seen a lot of very poor games, that you've never seen a game before or that you're a Donny fan in discuise. There not even the best footballing side i've seen this seson, personally i think Swansea were better than Donny.
to be fair you can't really say that the donny of today were the "greatest footballing side" ever they wern't that good
Utter twaddle played some decent stuff at times but no end product. We played two scuffers in midfield. Emil and Hammill (barring the goal) had stinkers. Shotton seemed to forget that we were in the dark shirts.
