D 0-0 vs Accrington Stanley (H) – Sat 24th Jan, 3.00pm (League Two)

Silly yellow for Flint there

Not watching as I’ve got a few things going on atm. What’s the entertainment like?

As I said last week…At present I find it depressing to watch the team’s (and I use the word loosley) abject attempts to play football. There is NO system at all: there are extremely low levels of skills present: there is certainly no expectation of being thrilled and I am not proud of my hometown team (in fact I am embarrassed by it). I expect the opposition to be better and…yes, I know we are still third in the table, but I fear that there is, in reality, little chance of promotion…I’m tempted to say… unless things change. This team and this approach to the game could not survive in Division 1.

He is thick.

Their shape out of possession is almost as good as ours.

This performance is no better than last seasons home game against these.

Very poor half from us

Can’t see 22 players remaining on the pitch, combination of it being testy and a referee that’s struggling. 4 reds in only his 5th league match

That, more than anything, sums up the attitude in that first half. They need a rocket at half time.

Pretty uninspiring first half from the Super Saddlers.

Cut and paste from too many home games this season.

Conditions don’t lend themselves well to playing good football, but need less of the lumping to no one. Can 100% get a result from this.

The prat in the orange boots is going out of his way to get someone sent off. This ref would be only too happy to oblige.

Tough half. Periods of head tennis, periods of general lost, periods of windy weather, periods of tactical fouls. I wonder if there will be an improvement in the second half.

How do you know we’ve barely touched the ball?

I think Sadler will say keep it up lads , This is exactly how I want us to play :weary_face:

What a throughly depressing half of football , zero shots on target and barely a pass . I really hate our style of play .

This anti-football approach is such a tough watch. Absolutely no entertainment or excitement - all about the result.

Fine when you get the result, painful when you don’t.

An all too familiar first half summary

Absolute cack as usual. Probably scrape a win through sheer boredom.

:person_shrugging:

No effort or desire is one thing I won’t accept truly awful. Players dont look arsed.
