Not enuf goals in this team who’d have thought it

sigh.

 

[Hodgie1979]

Just one of those nights.

As long as its ONE of those nights cos that was shite...if you want promotion then burton ffs 3 thousand fans.
Pathetic tbh.

 

[SAFC11]

Good that we played well overall. Just a tad concerned about the form of Gooch, and to a lesser extent, McGeady.

Make a bid for their keeper - include Grigg???

More concerned about mcgeady. Very poor today and hasnt overly stood out this season. Missed the easiest chance of the game and gave the ball away softly to give them possession for their goal.

 

[woodlebert]

The “offside” gang is growing. Good to see

 

[Roker Mackem]

It was funny watching Frankie and Danny analysing from the normal camera angle.. they didnt have a clue

 

[Dodgy]

That's the spirit

I think he looks superb for the most part but there's the odd time, like a young Stones, when he tries to play it out or do an unnecessary turn and will get caught out.
Some of his vision, for a 17 year old, is insane though.

 

[TDalt]

Regardless of the performance, dead poor result that. Shows the need, for me, for another 3 first teamers. Whether we get them or not is another story.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Unless someone at the game has videoed it along the line you can't see if he's offside or not.

But this is what happens when you don't take your chances sadly.

Hopefully have a response at the weekend and hit the f***ing net.

To be fair, we did take that chance and the lino flagged for offside. The more I look at it Flannagans forward momentum suggests there was no way he was offside when the ball was crossed.

 

[Boro_Fan]

Burton will be up there with Jimmy at the helm

 

[Moderate Power]

The one in the yellow. Do you honestly expect me to know his name when I'm still struggling with ours?

Brilliant, had to laugh at that one.

I have to confess I heard a few names tonight and assumed they were Burton players and then realised not.

If you watch with the Livescore.com app open on the team page, it helps to get familiar with who these

 

[cook]

Screenshot it and stick it on here.

From that video he's offside. No excuse just needs to stand next to the bloke in front.

Cant win them all and it wasnt pathetic

 

[Stubbs ftm]

Offside

Shouldn't have mattered as we should have took our chances in the first half

 

[Fred]

The “offside” gang is growing. Good to see

I really don't get how you can say 'good to see' about anything that costs us points. Just want to be a know-it-all I suppose.

Btw I think it's offside as well

 

[Ohnonotagain]

Same. It’s offside. Mental to think we’re looking at the same thing and don’t see the same thing

Rose coloured specs. The same people would say offside if it was against us. That's the passion of fans.

Definitely offside.

 

[Smartin]

He is offside, its poor forward play.

 

[Baz]

Desperately unlucky tonight. Despite the result, Burton are the worst of the 3 sides we have played so far based on that performance and that makes it all the more annoying.

 

[Nuneaton Youth]

f***ing hate Burton

 

[MarcoG]

Aside from our performance I wouldn't be too surprised to see Burton pushing top six based on that. A relatively physical team with what looked a good unit, a forward that looked like he could shift as well as play a bit and then the kid on the wing looked excellent.

Quite like Hasselbaink so wouldn't mind seeing them do well.

 

[pork pie]

We should have been out of sight before we predictably let them in. Same old story for me like. Until we become a bit more clinical, we will have to keep licking our wounds to defeats like this.
