Match Thread Most liked posts in thread: City v Walsall| League 2 | 20 October

Radio Leeds guys both thought O'Donnell was at fault for there goal, a bit harsh for me, good strike but no one closed Nurse down, do we learn obviously not, having said that they both thought Roberts had made a wonder save when it hit one of their defenders.

 

I know I have said this since the start of the season but yet again the lack of width or pace is do evident to see and someone please tell me DMH was a better option than Connolly, at least Connolly would try to take on the full back and could control the ball.

 

I'm a fan of prickly McCall.

Don't mind that at all.

Means he feels the pressure and cares.

Means he's frustrated it's not quite there yet.

Means it's not all rainbows and sunshine in the dressing room, too, not all buddy-buddy everything's going Jackanory.

 

Walsall commentary and Express and Star both thought City were one of better teams they have played, and they were relieved to get a draw.

 

Don't set me off on Connolly again. I couldn't believe we didn't go for him when he was released. Get ready for the long run of "no end product" posts

 

Nail on the head for me, unfortunately this sort of culture has gripped our club and a few on here

 

No he wasn't. Great strike but should have been stopped fairly or otherwise by DMH who ran alongside and then stopped. Poor.

 

I think Tyler French looks a decent player he was a bit unlucky to lose his place and I think he impressed again second half

 

I think Watt is wasted spraying the ball around, he's got the talent and the game to play further forward and hurt teams. There is no doubt he will play at a higher level than league 2. I see a lot of the traits that Cullen and Obrien had in his game, wouldn't be surprised to see him in the championship in the future.

 

Said it before and last night changed nothing, we will be a mid table side at best. A decent enough point last night but game was there for the taking I felt but we just don’t have enough going forward to beat enough sides for a serious promotion push.

Another tough side who can defend at the weekend in Newport and I can’t see a city win based on what we’ve seen so far

 

True. But Mansfield were awful.

 

Strange thing on this site. We win and the opposition are crap. We lose and we are crap.

 

Come on, be realistic. A blind man could see that Harrogate and Walsall were different class from Mansfield. This is reflected in their respective positions in the table and the fact that Walsall have the longest unbeaten record in the FL.
I'm not saying that this makes us crap. Just that we can't read much from a win against a team that are likely bottom three candidates.
I don't think we're going to get beaten easily very often. But we have to accept that our strikers are average at best, so they are going to miss plenty. So, unless we can create a lot more chances than we're currently doing, we are going to struggle for goals.

 

True...but our attacking midfielders are hardly stepping up to the plate are they? No goals between them.

 

Well, a 4-4 should make for a good match then

 

If we go with the same starting 11 I’ll back to us win. If he tinkers with it then we’ll get beat. No need to change it.

 

Fully agree, however, we all know he WILL change it.

 

We just need to take the early chance that Novak has missed at the Bradford end in all three games then we should be OK.

 

Bolton started well at Barrow

 

Richard ODonnell wonder save say radio leeds. I saw the ball hit A OConnor on his shoulder.

WTF are they on?
