Shrewsbury v Blackpool Official Matchday Thread 02.03.24

[tangerinesince88]

CJ is the most feeble player I think I’ve ever seen. He has no desire whatsoever to get involved in a game. Genuinely staggered Gabriel has been dropped again for him, he must be sensational in training.

 

[hertfordseasider]

I thought CJ was playing??

 

[Chesterbfc]

Same old, same old!!

 

[Tangerinetillidie]

I'm just not sure about Lavery, I'd rather Joseph and obviously Rhodes.

Why did Coulson go down then?

Rhodes fresh back from injury wouldnt through him straight in I think 20 minutes in the second half will reintegrate him back into the first 11

Of course CJ looks amazing in training, he's up against our defence

 

[bill40]

Chuffing 'eck that was close for the Shrews.

 

[tangerinesince88]

Wonder if he manages to trap the ball in training? He seems to struggle with that in games.

 

[CAGU]

Playing it on the floor a bit more than usual but too much going backwards from promising positions.

 

[Tangerinetillidie]

CJ has no hunger or desire he plays like hes just come back from a 3 course meal.

 

[hertfordseasider]

Need Gabriel on for CJ, he's been wank since he signed his new contract (awaits stunning goal and 2 assists from CJ!)

 

[hertfordseasider]

Good comment from the commentator, we don't get any shots on target

 

[tangerinesince88]

Good comment from the commentator, we don't get any shots on target

1 in the last four away games

1 in the last four away games

That isn't even funny, it's pathetic isn't it?

 

[Next Goal WIns]

I think you're being a little harsh. Critch has gone back to the team that started against Bolton except CJ for Gabriel.
We were poor on Tuesday with the a couple of enforced changes which have now been reversed.
Lets be honest you'd probably still moan if he picked Messi.

CJ has no hunger or desire he plays like hes just come back from a 3 course meal.

Get him on the left wing. He can't do any worse !!

 

[Tangman74]

Where are the shots ??? It is the same old at the moment

 

[tangerinesince88]

Dembele is just a wonderful player. Absolutely wasted in this side, feel for him really. He’s at least a level better than almost every player we have

 

[seasidelytham]

Where are the shots ??? It is the same old at the moment

And why are you expecting anything different?

 

[Memphisboy]

No, but surely Gabriel is better and more effective than cowardly Hamilton. Joseph, however has flopped as he did at Swansea, and is a poor signing.
If the fees rumoured are accurate then that's £1.5m in total for those two benched!

Has Joseph flopped? Miles better than Beesley

 

[hertfordseasider]

I would have Morgan on for Norburn, what a waste of money he was

 

[Tangman74]

Peterborough 8 points clear in 5th with 2 games in hand

 

[tangerine.com]

Struggling yet again after promising start.

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

Well half an hour gone in a game totally lacking in any quality whatsoever.

 

[Tangman74]

I would have Morgan on for Norburn, what a waste of money he was

Week after week he just gives the ball away - and this is our captain

 

[hertfordseasider]

Byers is a much better player but has to keep clearing up Norburn's mistakes

 

[tangerinesince88]

That just sums us up there. We won the ball high up with players forward, Norburn gets it and passes it straight back. Eventually resulting in a lump up from Husband out of play. Awful awful football.

 

[Chesterbfc]

Norburn is a backwards pass man full stop!!

 

[hertfordseasider]

We are so boring to watch, it's awful and you just know what's going to happen.

 

[Roy Kent]

More entertainment from Gary Bowyer than what I’m seeing

Critchley will love that

 

[Roy Kent]

OUCH! That will have hurt both Lavs and their player !!

 

[Chesterbfc]

The 2 dummies have made a move!@

 

[Roy Kent]

Get Rhodes on!!

 

[tangerinesince88]

BBC Lancashire are so annoying as well. Andy Bayes sounding surprised at how awful we are, do they watch any games? This is the exact performance we have had away for the whole season. I wish they’d ask some decent questions to Critchley about how poor it is to watch, no shots, no excitement.

 

[Cable Cat]

Watching Critchley there within ear shot of half a dozen players but waits to speak to Norburn - how weird!

 

[Tangerinetillidie]

Mourinho must be jealous were parking an entire plane not a bus. Norbun must have eyes in the back of his head... not the front! Because the only way he looks is back.

 

[Long-shanks]

This is awful again. No shot of any description - wowful

 

[NewburyOne]

Better than Tuesday but it's poor stuff. Lavery is half asleep, CJ is worse than useless.

 

[Insider]

I would have Morgan on for Norburn, what a waste of money he was

Not today though because he's not in the squad.

 

[maxnix]

Under the kosh…trying to contain the mighty Shrewsbury. Would be nice to see us have a go, but no Critch knows best. Very important to grind out a draw at this stage of the season with the play offs in sight.
He really is a prick !

 

[ss53]

Anyone else see what looked like the pool physio picking ip lavery’s tooth from the pitch?

 

[Chishandfips]

BBC Lancashire are so annoying as well. Andy Bayes sounding surprised at how awful we are, do they watch any games?

In fairness to Andy he rarely does Blackpool games - I like him as a commentator.
However I would agree that they do need to challenge Critchley more about his away tactics and his culpability.

 

[seasideone]

Did Shrewsbury physio just pick up one of Laverys teeth, put it in tissue and give it to the Blackpool physio?

 

[Mark_GT]

Norburn so one footed it's embarrassing. Plus he's just shouting nonsense at the other players. We need a complete reset. Husband clearly frustrated here in the ground.

 

[hertfordseasider]

Shock horror, Lavery's injured again

 

[TangerinePeel]

Can't believe how many have gone with our away form. Fair play to every one of 'em.

The away performances haven't deserved some of the support it's had this season.

 

[chromedome21]

Anyone else see what looked like the pool physio picking ip lavery’s tooth from the pitch?

Yep, deffo.

 

[Roy Kent]

Anyone else see what looked like the pool physio picking ip lavery’s tooth from the pitch?

Yes think ur right!

 

[hertfordseasider]

Not today though because he's not in the squad.

How is that possible??

 

[MeanLeanTangerineMachine]

Pretty awful shaping up like another away performance... CJ getting the abuse as usual but the balls to him have been awful, he needs it early with space behind defenders. Really all minus dembele have been poor. Byers and Norburn really not offering much going forward so far.

 

[tangerinesince88]

I’m afraid he’s just a nodding dog because they are so afraid of asking challenging questions. He’s okay commentating, but cmon, do some research.
