L 3-2 vs Shrewsbury Town (A) - BSM Trophy Group Stage - Tue 14th Nov, 7pm

It started nicely, but ended badly. I hope the second half will be better, but it’s hard to see it. Stirk injury can be devastating.

He’s literally like the kid who doesnt want to miss out.

Watch him with celebrations, when we do score.
He either runs 40 yards to join in with the lads and “take over”. Or he’ll literally do the player thats scored’s “signature” celebration.

Its like he cant be left out and the spotlight has to be on him.

Oh and that dive today… shudders.

Not a bad performance but losing again. This game could go either way as both teams are experimental to a degree. Good to get some minutes into Meneyese.

Sounds like a night out in walsall

Yes, very important for Menayese. I saw some criticism of him further up…the guy hasn’t played competitive football for a long, long time. It’ll take a good while to get back his match sharpness and confidence.

If Preston still want him in January, I’ll set up a Go Fund Me Page and drive him down myself…

Because its the walsall way!!

Thoughts so far…
What was Oisin doing for the first goal. He’s got to get to that ball.
Smith has to do better than that for the second. Nowhere near what wasn’t exactly a pile driver.

Why does Knowles take free kicks? About as good as his throw ins.

Steven thinks Plymouth still retain an interest in Tommy Knowles.

Knowles as a footballer is a knob
Surely a lovely guy but I can’t stand him as a footballer
Selfish, diver , sulker, no final ball , loves himself
May even dislike him more than osadebe

Any positives? :smile:

Why does he have to give them away too - completely unnecessary foul that led to their second goal

That’s harsh. At least Knowles cares and tries to get us back into games. Osadebe walks around and stands there with his hands on his hips wondering why everyone going mad at him while he runs down the clock for the opposition

Likewise I don’t understand the hate he’s getting recently, but he is certainly a frustrating player.

He is only playing because we have no one else.

Any ideas on the gate tonight

Commentator said a thousand odd with around 250 of us
