Incident on the pitch sounds serious, what's happened?

All I have seen re the incident is John Fleck, a sub, has been changed so assuming something has happened to him

Looked to me that TSL lost his footing when going down to the shot.

Post by: NickDRFC on February 06, 2025, 08:11:49 pm
Olowu pulled out of position and Sterry nowhere near quick enough to cover. Should still have been saved, though. Street’s also fallen over, dodgy pitch?

TSL pulled to the floor and the ref spots it and gives us a free kick.
Unusual for a ref to do that.

Having watched the replay, it looks like Sterry thinks the ball is going out, and is only jogging until he realised.

Molly didnt miss a sitter. He hit the target twice and the keeper had good reactions. Should of maybe scored, but saying he missed sounds like he didnt do the basic thing and hit the target

The 2nd bounced up at him on his weaker foot.
Title: Re: Chesterfield V TLOD
Post by: jmt23 on February 06, 2025, 08:43:56 pm
Yes by far the better team and more chances, but we have been poor at the back, two people who have been rocks too, in owolu and Sterry, Teddy may be at fault for the first but not the second.

It was a foul on Molly, but I think the rib injury part was accidental as Molly fell on the chesterfield players elbow. Doesn’t happen without the foul though.

Title: Re: Chesterfield V TLOD
Post by: NickDRFC on February 06, 2025, 09:13:04 pm
McGrath’s positioning at times leaves a bit to be desired. Maybe it’s a lack of protection in midfield but he quite often ends up in no man’s land.

Not really got going this half and typical that a rare foray into the box is punished.

It is all in the execution, they made the most of what they had, Rovers have not. No doubt Rovers are a superior side, but that cutting edge is not there still. Very frustrating.

Good job we have billy on now eh.

Sharp’s been getting non-stop stick since coming on and obliged by putting one straight over the bar from 6 yards out. Just not our night.

It’s inevitable we will lose games but the manner in which we have conceded 5 is worrying..

Defence a shambles tonight, but having said that we created enough chances to score a hat full

Not helped by a midfield that decided they fancied all out attack tonight and leave the defenders wide open

I can only pick out Mollly and Crew for decent performances, Gibson looked bright too, but the rest were full of mistakes or ill discipline and it cost us.

I thought the ref was actually decent?

TSL had a nightmare all game. Both full backs were poor & Street looked lost.

Subs didn’t work either.

Did anything go right?

The strange thing is that if we had scored the first goal in either half I think we would have won.

We didn't deserve anything because of our defensive mistakes, and our finishing. :blush:

Grimsby is a more important game than the Palace one


Edit: I know not everyone likes XG, but we had an XG of 2.13 tonight to Chesterfield 1.83

i.e. in general we didn't take our chances, they did

Agree about Monday's game and Molly looked sore during play after the foul and could be rested.

Mad though. If olowu and Sharp score those sitters and it could have been 4-4. Chesterfield quick on the counter all night and worth their win

He looked more comfortable in the second half and played the whole game.
He has four days to recover so I would bank on him playing on Monday.

There is no way molly is letting grant rest him against a premier league side.

If grant does then he risks upsetting our 1 player who on current form could drag us out of this awful league

Not really. Olowu scores when 4-1 down to make it 4-2. Then the sharp chance followed by our actual goal would never of happened.

I would think it would be up to the club doctor Thorney and the extent of any injury

Now that conclusion needs some explanation given how the two sides performed.
