[THE CLOCKSTAND CLOCK]

Get it sorted at halftime come out different side and get at these because really these are crap .Just we have been right off the pace first half .

 

[sunderpitt]

A couple of nice touches early on but looks physically way off.

The entire side have been poor. Take another ground out result on the road however. Amassing points on the road is a good habit irrespective of performance quality

Needs to either, go on the left, ie Connelly off, Isadore cente Roberts on the right.
Or he comes off... struggling atm tbf

 

[Big Duke Six]

Bed wetters out in force tonight.

 

[Boredom]

O9 the only player to come out of that half with any credit. Superb.

And the keeper… he’s saved us a few points the last two games

 

[RossTheNinja]

In Regis we trust.

He'll sort us out. We'll win this 2 nowt.

 

[seaburnmackem]

We look like a dead team void of ideas. Roberts and Mundle on at half time for Watson and Connolly. Both have offered nothing.

 

[Baz]

This winger situation ain't working like. Mundle and Roberts both need to be on for me. Browne has been awful.

 

[Cox Green Fc]

Watson looks like a lost sheep

 

[AmblerThorn]

O9 and Hume are playing very well, there's been some good runs from Watson and the keeper hasnt done anything wrong. Its fair to say that the football has been disjointed otherwise.

I am watching it just to clarify

 

[onkeldonald]

Poor half that. Watson been quiet and no rhythm in midfield.

Would like to see Roberts or mindre on at half time for Connolly or Watson.

 

[chuckyroll]

Connolly off please

Ye ya right

 

[smithy83]

Nothing through the midfield and it has Mepham and Onien on their heels.

 

[ChrisAshley]

When are we going to address the elephant in the room that we’ve been gash for weeks?
We haven’t played well as a team in a long time.

We played well against Oxford but that's been one good performance for a while.

 

[scotch]

Ok so why is he gonna go inthe position of our best winger?
How about no.
Mundle stays on the left

Our best winger is sitting on the bench

 

[molthemackem]

Roberts on for Connolly, put Watson on the left IMO

Tommy out of his depth tonight...He looks scared stiff

 

[LT2K]

We seem to struggle against a back 3/5, the press just isnt on. Need to be more assertive on the ball and take control of the game in the middle.

 

[wrighty]

Not sure we are going to gel in this new system. I thought it was drastic and odd when I saw it. You never want to play your best player out of his best position (Isidor), especially when you don't have to.

At least we have Mundle and Roberts to come on and make an impact if need be.

Keep it level until half time and we can pull ourselves together and come out better and win this. Really tired of these away games though.

Come on SAFC!

Isidor not great on the left so far but we just have no control. Our press is being bypassed easily. Hopefully RLB knows why and will change it.

 

[Veteran2]

Missing the inverted wingers

Explain an inverted winger.

 

[billingham mackem]

Tommy Watson just isn't ready yet for this league a bit unfair to keep him on, Connelly just well isn't fit to play for a pub team. Changes at halftime get some shape back keep the ball better and win this 2-0

 

[Alfa]

Changes haven’t worked at all. Connolly offering nothing, Isodor similar out wide and he’s nowhere as near as effective tracking back as Mundle.
Desperately missing Jobe too
