Tonight’s team
COYR
-
i thought we were at home....?
-
so did i lol
-
Hull are one up against Accrington - our old friend Mr Wilks on target again....
-
I'm certainly at home!
-
Nice to see greaves get his chance! Just hope he can keep his concentration has all the potential to be a very good player who knows could go on to replace Ben. Will never know without a chance
-
It’s nice to see Richards in the more attacking role from midfield also Wright on the bench is good hopefully him and Gomes could be on the bench on Saturday if they are not selected to play of course.
-
i thought we were at home....?
Yeah, people who aren’t watching iFollow but are following this thread won’t know what is happening if someone posts 1-0 or 0-1.
Get it changed.
-
Charlton up at Peterborough... and Hull 2 up

I think the follow up "shit" or "yeeeeeeeeeeah" would probably be a bit of a giveaway!
-
I like the look of the team but bench depth is a real issue. 4 defenders (good to see Wright back but got a feeling he's walking wounded) a keeper and a midfielder who so far doesn't seem up to it. Lokilo is capable of a bright spark but very hit and miss. Hopefully no new injuries tonight!

Yep, agreed but the first post usually just puts the score.
-
Hull 3 up and Accrington have player sent off...... so it may get worse
-
It might put the brakes on their play off push too.
-
Just tuned in, is kick-off delayed?
-

I don’t think we ever kick off on time Pancho.
-
How come that handball didn’t result in a yellow card.
-
Most blatant booking you should ever see!
-
I hope that's not a taste of what's to come with standard of reffing
-
The midfield need to offer the defence a passing option.
-
The Keepmoat pitch is like a bowling green. Well done groundstaff. Some of the grounds we’ve played at recently look agricultural.
-
Greaves aggression and defensive positioning has been decent so far.
-
Rochdale twice gone close now.
JT struggling to do anything right so far.
Greaves doing well.
-
Dale look lively and dangerous up front. We need to quicken up our passing, particularly out from the back.
-
Rochdale twice gone close now.
JT struggling to do anything right so far.
Greaves doing well.
Shouldn’t that be J-T? :whistle: ;)
He certainly looks off the pace so far. Quite impressed by Rochdale, they look quick, strong and sharp. Hoping we’ll grow into the game.
-
How we doing? Any chances created? 0-0 a fair score so far?

You know what Nick, I nearly did put J-T but thought you might think I was taking the pizz.
The pace of this game is terrible.
Our gerrit forrard lot would be going mental if fans were in the stadium.
-
Dale had the better chances well long shots anyway both teams happy to play out from the back and wait for space to open up
-
Marquis scores again, Sunderland and Peterborough currently losing at home...
-
1:0

Many thanks, dknward2. Appreciate it!
-
Great goal JT
-
Get in Tayls
-
1-0
-
Yess! Taylor
-
Lovely move that.
-
Lovely jubbly!
-
Brilliant ball by Smith and great run by Halliday to head it back into the danger area. But of luck with Richards scuffing it and Taylor in the right place at the right time to tap in.
-
Best move of the game! Probably against the run of play though as I don’t think we have been great so far. Good sign though
-
Just about the only decent move of the game. Greaves has done alright so far. Won a lot of tackles breaking play up quite well.
-
Great team worked goal that we seem to have stepped up a little bit, hopefully it will drag them out which should give us some space
Elliot playing well so is AJ, Big Tom and Butler being the brick wall, the pace we have down the wing is very positive
-
Taylor looks like he still has COVID good job he managed to score
-
Half Time: 1-0
-
Why is it 1-1 matey.
-
Peterborough just equalised...
-

I wouldn't have said it was against the run of play, we've had the majority possession, they've just hit long balls and long shots from outside the area.
-

Correction already made, mate. It’s my age you know! Sorry if you had some heart palpitations!
-
Giid to be leading at HT , now press on, make sure of the points and maybe notch up the goal difference.
-
Not sure what I’m watching...they look:
Strong
Quick
Controlled
Fast
and look to have goals in them....
We look :
A bit rushed
Clumsy
Disjointed
Headless at times
Yet we are winning, so whatever that ingredient is ( I think it’s a massive bucket of luck) we seem to be using it to its greatest effect....
-

I didn’t have because I saw them coming off for the break.
I thought Dale might have stayed on though and sneaked one in.

Rochdale do look good going forward the front 2 look very strong
-
Matty Blair has scored assisted by Alfie. Has the Newport keeper scored in that game?
-
Peterborough just equalised...
Now winning
-
Sunderland now drawing
-
Matty Blair has scored assisted by Alfie. Has the Newport keeper scored in that game?
From a goal kick apparenty. Assisted by S. Christoph?

Err...you can’t score direct from a goal kick...unless the Laws have changed this season!
:)
From the BBC website:
Newport County goalkeeper Tom King scored the first goal of his career to give the Exiles the lead at Cheltenham Town.
The 25-year-old's goal-kick was picked up in the wind before Robins goalkeeper Josh Griffiths was caught out by the bounce as the ball sailed into the net.
Newport players ran all the way back into their own penalty area to celebrate with King, who was included in Wales' international squad for the first time in November 2019.
Stunned by the goal the Cheltenham players appeared to appeal to officials, but after a quick discussion between the referee Peter Wright and the fourth official the goal was given
Obviously the ball was played a second time by an attacker/defender.
-
Bit of a dodgy sub there if you ask me, the Tayls one I can understand but Richards for Williams is odd, unless he has a knock
-
Richards not happy at being taken off. Don’t blame him tbh. Game still up for grabs and if we concede he is one that can change the game back in our favour.
-
Sunderland now drawing
Now losing 2-1.
-
This really isn’t a great match. Just hope we can get a win out of it. But getting more nervous
-
Has iFollow crashed
-
Mine hasn't
-
Fine for me
-

Tell me about it, P. R. :)
-
Humphreys should have scored there.
-
Be nice to get something from one of these corners
-
Sounds like we are hanging on for a scrappy 1-0 , will do the job I suppose
-
Lokilo doing well tonight.
-
Lokilo getting stronger and stronger. Looks like he believes he has the beating of them.
AJ has done well but looks to be flagging a little now.
-
AJ almost got that pass let him down but very positive play hope he keeps getting his chances

Direct from a goal kick is allowed.
-
Not the greatest of visual spectacles, but we are not allowing a side that's scored a hatful of goals in the last few matches get a look in.
Impressed with the steel we are showing.
AJ seems to be able to cope with league 1 rather well
-
What a block from big Tom
-
Is Greaves a "mester"? :lol:
-
Yeah, I think he is.
-
AJ and Lokilo have looked very good
-
Greaves has done well and I think Simoes has played well tonight too.
-
Ferji must be getting tired
-
And off he comes

You are right, B.R.! Quote from the Laws of the Game:
“A goal may be scored directly from a goal kick, but only against the opposing team; if the ball directly enters the kicker’s goal a corner kick is awarded to the opponents if the ball left the penalty area.”
Well, I never knew that! I finished refereeing in 1999, after more than 40 years, and that certainly wasn’t the Law when I retired...I don’t think!
:facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:
-
Wonder if AJ will get his chance Vs west ham
-
Come on Donny see it out 2 mins to go
-
Clean Sheet
-
not spectacular, but who cares
Great result
-
That’ll do. Ground that one out.
-
Good win in the end. Rochdale were no mugs but firmly kept in their place :scarf:
-
job done.
-
Won ugly (as they say).
-
Great result with a threadbare squad. All credit to the players and DM.
-
We huffed and puffed in that one, job done though and another three points, not sure what DM’s obsession is with taking Taylor Richards off after an hour or so, did Williams touch the ball when he came on?

He did. Was okay for me.

Yeah, he did nothing wrong.
Did his job.
-
Another win. How we played matters not to me. Three points are all that matters.
Agreed.?

Did nothing wrong, but added nothing as well, taking Richards off weakened us in the middle of the park
-
DM gave Williams time on the pitch but he got to more. We won not nice on the eye but the determination and AJ showed his metal. 7 wins out of 8 games we can’t complain. Now to get Gomes back hopefully for Saturday. James back in contention. Decision over JJ to make before next league game and another midfield player hopefully with some height and skill and we are definitely in contention.
-
Seem to be getting results were they would normally be kicking us in the teeth.....
Impressed with Greaves , looks like the bit of aggression we have missed...
Great win all in all.....
-
I must have been watching a different game, greaves for me, seemed to either pass the ball to a blue, or go in clumsy risking a free kick..
And Williams looked like he had won a competition to get a game, he only came on as there was no one else... And then Barley touched the ball once on.. Our strength in depth is absolute zero right now.
That aside, the defence is rock solid and will be the reason from here on, if we go up this season!!!

We are at bare bones we need at least two more players we all know but let’s not have a dig at players who have not played. Greaves not tactician but he did what he need to do in his first full start. Williams needs to do more but he’s not played. DM knows what we need depending on JJ’s injury.
-
Greaves needs to keep getting games he could be a great player just needs games and learning of a great manager
