I'm here to spread some negativity when needed, but it looks like a cracking crowd and atmosphere. The type of game you want to be at.

Yep,we are losing the middle and haven't had any chance to press

Never a free kick to start with. They were both battling for the ball

How the wind doesn't pick up, there's a danger Close and Sbarra might blow over.

Not much mention of the midfield or those up front recently.

True but great cross in.
Gibson has made 3 poor decisions in defence now putting us in trouble.
Fleming need taking off before he gets sent off.
Close, well what exactly is he about?
Refs giving them everything.
Chesterfield way the better team

Not his sort of game it seems - a bit too intense. Where is Molyneux? Need palyers who will run at their defence perhaps.
Title: Re: TLOD vs Spireites
Post by: PDX_Rover on September 28, 2024, 03:48:20 pm
McGrath booked for what looked a perfectly good challenge.
Close and Sbarra not in the game. Sbarra much too lightweight. Bailey can’t do it alone.
They’ve sussed Mols out.
Gibson ineffective and frustrating to watch.

Chesterfield the better team.

Big halftime talk.

Less than convincing first half. Hope GM makes some changes earlier rather than later.

There were several who played well on Tuesday and built the lead who ought to get there chance now. Dynamism needed. Give Chesterfield something to think about.

Close is not for this league. You need grafters in there and he’s not that. Bring Kelly on to replace him or drop sbarra back to mid and go 2 up top with Sharp
Title: Re: TLOD vs Spireites
Post by: rover-n-out on September 28, 2024, 04:03:32 pm
PDX summed it up exactly as I see it, Sbarra, Close and Gibson not in the game, Moly closed down soon as he gets the ball, can't get a run at them at all. The ball is coming back time and time again, no teeth from Close or Sbarra, powder puff players. Sitting far too deep, we just panic and give the ball straight back to them. Hopeless at the moment.

Don't know what McCann sees in Close - awful 1st half. Gave up counting how many times he gave the ball away!

In the first minute of the 2nd half,we looked more dangerous that fir the first 48ish

Why can’t McCann see what we can see in Close? He can’t cope with a physical contest for fear of injury.
