Oh god yes, that Carlisle game with the wind was horrific!!

 

That is horrendous keeping.

 

Did you see the Man U goal today? And that keeper probably earns £100k a week.

 

You mean the losses that were more than covered by season ticket and ifollow sales ?

 

Thanks Dave I will watch it again.

 

Yep first time I saw it , I thought worldy. Still some shot to get it in from that angle but if ROD bloody stood up it would have been blocked easy.

 

Canavan showed him wide you dont expect a goal coming from that angle

 

You don't expect the ball coming in

 

It could be a problem for us.

 

Nail on the head

 

THe defeat was down to good management by Orient. Having watched his team beaten by Harrogate and knowing we play a similar style he changed the way they played to beat us,

Some are saying that both keepers are alike and that we need a new keeper, This is rubbish because Hornby is a far better keeper in all areas, He just needs games and will be a good keeper, Adams with his record often grinded out draws or 1-0 wins at times when not playing well but that is impossible with a dodgy keeper who lets goals in that although tough should be saved, Hornby watching the displays by ROD must be wondering how he gets first choice over him

 

Right from the throw in where Songo doesn't win the ball this goal was a great example of how not to defend, sorry ROD has to do better.
Not knocking ROD just pointing out the defending was poor and so was the goal keeping in this instance, with doubt the lad hit the ball well but ROD stands his ground he saves it, I try and tell it as I see it just as I did at Manfield when ROD made a very good save at 2-2 I believe and I posted as much.

 

I agree this board would be very boring if we all had the same opinion. However I can't agree that Canavan did what he had to do. I know you wouldn't necessarily expect a shot on goal from that angle but he has to stop it going into the danger zone

 

sorry mate I disagree. Forget about the shot on goal. Canavan has to stop it going into the area. By the way yes ROD should have done better too

 

That is a far too balanced and reasonable view. Well done !

 

agreed

 

I wasn't just blaming ROD but both goals were easily preventable. Let's hope he doesn't have many more horror shows like this otherwise we will struggle to make top 7 never mind top 3.
