Nah, it was my coat that did it - dipped in the pocket and found the last time I wore it to a game was Scunthorpe away ![]()
Burn it.
Well hes made a steady living with it. Williams is the least of our problems. You do talk some!!
Spot on. He couldnt score ten by xmas in a brothel. His demeanour was repugnant. Strutting around doing nothing. Their centre half ran through our entire team all night. It truly was shocking the gulf tonight in attitude and the willingness to pass the ball. They took throw ins at leisure whikst our players thought they were completing a Mensa test doing the simple things. How were in the game after 30 minutes i do not know. However Knowles missed another sitter to go one nil up. Then Dj the same to draw level in the second half. Their goals . An assist by Whiteand second an assist by Knowles. We had cut out the crap hence the winning run. Stockport were a joy to watch.
Knowles isnāt a striker heās just being used there because the other options are crap apart from a fit Wilkinson.
Agreed and Kinsellaās yellow on the half hour stunted his game in its tracks really.
I thought weād brought our new target man onā¦
Well beaten by a team that were better at every aspect of the game. Weāve been a bit strange this season, went ten without a win and then nine without a loss, weāll see in the next few games which is the real us. Hopefully on Sunday we can start another undefeated run.
A few people are wondering what the pitch invader was up to, I think I can explain, I heard him earlier mumbling away, he was saying āmy carrier bag, Iāve got to find my carrier bag, I left it on the pitch on New Years Day, I need to find itā and a few minutes later he went looking for it, but to no avail.
Not sure he had much choice, Kins had made three or four rash challenges before he got booked. Worst decision was penalising Johnson for a foul on a defender he was stood five yards behind!
Do you like any Walsall players?
Owen Evans has really frustrated me this season. There have been so many opportunities during games this season where his distribution could be quicker and could set us away on a counter attack. Instead he holds on to the ball to hoof it in the same area. Jimmy Walker was very good in getting us moving quick as was Richard O Donnell, Etheridge and Carl Rushworth werenāt to bad either. I understand you need the personnel but is this down to Evans, Flynn or Dan Watson.
Looks like White was to blame for both goals.
Missed header and failed to stop the cross.
He aināt great.
Yeah, think McEntee should get a shot against Mansfield.
It was a poor team performance though, canāt just single out one player for costing us.
Said to the lad as the teams were warming up that Stockport looked sharper then us. Iām no expert and I picked up on that as clear as day.
During the game our press looked to have disappeared, we left holes all over the place completely lacking any semblance of shape at times. Gordon was getting murdered because it was often 2 on 1 as Manny wasnāt backing him up on the wing like White does for Bennett on the right (and one of those an ex premiership player) and lots of players just having an off day with wayward passes/touches/judgement.
We were due a bad day and to be honest we have been quite lucky at times during our run. Next game thereās no Benno and no DJ so team selection will be interesting. Fingers crossed we can get some kind of result though ![]()
As has been said, beaten by a better side.
Too many poor performances:
White at fault for both goals - missed the header and allowed the cross
Overrun in midfield, Earing was anonymous, Kinsella trying to do too many jobs, Hutchinson provided no defensive cover
Substitutions were poor, only Maddox got a kick and DJT and Wilkinson contributed very little
Upfront DJ out muscled, lack service, no one could hold the ball up
In contrast Wootton and Madden gave our back 3 no time at all, and we didnāt have a plan for Madden who kept finding space.
IMO only Evans, Monthe, Daniels, Bennett and Knowles were on their game.
On reflection, we possibly needed Comley in front of the back 3 instead of Earring.
Mansfield will be a big game.
We will miss DJ and Bennett.
DJT
Andy Williams
Gash x10
Yes. Monthe, daniels, owen evans. The rest very average
Yes its easy after the event to pick a team to have done better!! I agree that a midfield of Comley and Kinsella might have done better.In fact I made that comment during the game however we were unbeaten for weeks and the Manager had used his resources well in my view.
Lets see what happens on Sunday which is now a key game. Another performance like that will make a play off push very difficult but I am hopeful that most of the team will return to their best form.
Surely Maher should be given a chance would love to see him given a run in the team.
