Match Thread Home v Leyton Orient Tues 1st Feb @7.45pm

Huh?

 

Chorus of boos at half time from a 6.5k crowd.

Ironically, Getting Away With It from the Pet Shop Boys is on first. In recognition of Rupp?

Rupp out

 

Don't worry those who count are in attendance .

 

Reminds me of us under T & S does this some neat and tidy passing miles out, hopefully we can get a wonder goal for them two out of trouble a fair few times…

 

As an away team on a poor run, Orient have done well. Been compact and solid defending, flooded the centre of the field when we've had the ball knowing we have no width. In the latter stages of the half they've got more in the ball and had a couple of quick breaks. They'll be happy I would think.

For us, started well, not bad pressing, some decent quick passing moves but no real chances created. As the home team we haven't done enough or created enough for me. Clearly lacking width and the centre is way too congested. Not really sure how we're going to score, perhaps a stray pass, loose ball or ricochet into an on rushing Daly, Walker or Sutton?

 

A cunning plan, would be to NOT go in at half time and listen to Adams.

 

Wonder if 'A road to nowhere' will get another play

 

new signings look decent but we aren't troubling them at all. as jones said on commentary the attacking mids need to get beyond cook more if we're gonna have him on his own. some neat passing but also basses clothesline on their forward was hilarious and terrifying in equal measure.

 

Looks too narrow we are trying to play everything through the middle, the times we have threatened we were playing from the wings.

 

Road to Hell might be more apt.

 

Message to Adams.



WE NEED WIDTH IN THIS SIDE

 

Reminds of the crowd against Shrewsbury a few years ago. That finished 0-0 and was a true bore for the sparse crowd

 

We got a load of maths teachers and accountants present Dave? Rachel Riley?

 

Looks sub 5k looking at the pictures on Twitter.

 

A terrible half of football. I’ve nothing positive to say.

 

He was never getting the ball and tried to con the ref obviously conned you.

 

Does Threlkeld realise he can attack the full back?

 

Once some not even all of the players give this dire lark up then Adams will be stuffed, no matter how many promotions he has- no shots on target is not the response from saturdays defeat that is needed.

 

Wonder who will benefit from the Adams team talk..us or them..
