[Insider]

Todays ref is Scott Simpson. Last game 8 yellows, 1 red.
Before that 7 yellows, 2 reds.

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

Steered away from the Faggots - long time since I've seen them on the menu.
burger, chips and drink.

I too tend to steer away from faggots

 

[BestTrip]

Chizzer starting early today. Mistaking Pennington for Dembele

How is that even possible

 

[Halifax71]

Well that was shit

 

[TangerineEggCup]

Here we go again .

 

[JJpool]

Here we go again, away flops.

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

1-0

 

[AmericanTangerine]

LOL, not serious about promotion at all

 

[Make the Pass]

Connolly again ffs.

 

[18YearFreeTrial]

Just realised I was posting on the wrong thread. Not sure what to make of that. Grimshaw looks slow so far

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Same old defending, same old outcome.... same old zzzzz

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

What a shocking goal to concede.

 

[JJpool]

How is that even possible

 

[agouti]

Soft underbelly...........again

 

[AmericanTangerine]

This is the Critchley that is so infuriating, can beat everyone but also lose to everyone, give opposition far too much respect.

 

[Matesrates]

Where’s Marv when we need him

 

[Chunkylad]

Our defence have the Achilles heel all season.

 

[JJpool]

Another utterly pathetic start, we keep giving poor teams confidence and allowing ourselves a mountain to climb considering we can't come back well.

Shite.

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

Bloody awful defending there

 

[Micky Walsh]

Gk should do better, but how passive from Pennington and CJ, no challenge at all.

 

[Briggsysgonagetya]

Theyre all still pissed from last night

 

[Bluecabinboy]

Interesting/telling that, as far as I’m aware, no mention/comment from Chizzy & Brett re the continued absence of Kenny & Eki….

 

[briar]

Grimmy needs a rest

 

[Meliora]

Connolly again ffs.

Don't you mean Pennington?

 

[Mcewans Mullet]

 

[Mark_GT]

We let opponents cross at will far to often and Grimmy is having a poor season. Far too often his starting position is wrong and he's frankly a bit dozy. Huge test now against a decent Burton side.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Never mind individuals. It was a defensive clusterfuck.

 

[18YearFreeTrial]

You'd have bet on Rhodes to whack that in...

 

[Far north tangerine]

We get cut open every game
Bristol were unlucky not to score more on Saturday
This defence will not get us anywhere near the top six come the end of the season

 

[Memphisboy]

Connolly in ahead of Marv and Casey, ridiculous. Just crackers in my opinion. As is playing Lyon’s left wing back, he can’t use his left foot at all, all he can do is either lay it back to Husband or sling in a cross from an angle that is meat and drink to central defenders, poses zero attacking threat from that position.

 

[1966_and_all_that]

It's going to be one of those days.

 

[MartonBornandBred]

Don’t tell Atg!
Time yet. Don’t go into melt down.

 

[Critchknows]

I'm yet to be convinced about Pennington. Far too easy to let that cross come in, poor from Connolly and Grimshaw who is another I have reservations about

 

[Blackpool_Gaz]

2 of them couldn't stop the cross into the box

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

House, lifesavings and golf clubs, not heard that one before from the chismeister

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

Oh Jordan.

 

[18YearFreeTrial]

Some shite officiating as per...

 

[Memphisboy]

Decent Burton side????????

 

[rease4]

Creating chances, have to start taking them.

A decent Burton side?

 

[Vince McLean]

A long way to go.
Let's not panic just yet.

 

[AlternativeSeaside]

Our defence have the Achilles heel all season.

Perhaps that’s why they’re shit

 

[Tangman74]

Jordan should of buried that

 

[JJpool]

A decent Burton side?

All the struggling sides suddenly are decent when we play them.

 

[briar]

Rhodes should have scored then

 

[Tangman74]

Why not Casey ?

 

[FY4MIKEH]

Rhodes should have scored then

It just bounced as he hit it.

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

How can anyone want Critchley as manager. The mind boggles.

 

[Matesrates]

Don’t panic

Wigan 0 Derby 1
Port Vale 0 Barnsley 1
