[QUOTE="Veryoldrokerender, post: 29687770,

I don't like criticising one of our players but just can't believe how poor Gooch has been since he got back into the side .
Never rated him before but when he started off the season with a bang , thought okay maybe I was wrong and was willing to admit it .
He has gone backwards so far it's unbelievable . All he does is run around ,fouling the opposition, claiming he is fouled ,constantly losing the ball , running into dead ends and slowing down or cocking up any breaks we make .
If he gets a start on Thursday ,I will be disappointed but hope he scores and I have to eat my words .;)

Was decent tonight, think some people just like to find a scapegoat rather than looking at what's in front of them.

You are right about the scapegoat point

The problem is we have a few players not up to even L1 playing for us...Gooch is just one of them

Not looking for a scapegoat mate , I thought overall he was poor added nothing going forward . Certainly not the player he briefly showed us,he could be , at the beginning of the season .
 
Settle for 1-0 two piss poor teams first half. Charlton and Doncaster must be laughing all night at that performance. We never even tried. Reckon KJ wanted a 0-0 we will turn you over next week though. Then lose at Wembley.
You haven’t beaten us this season over 90 minutes when we’ve had eleven men on the pitch so I’m not sure what makes you so confident- unless you think we’re going to h@ve tonight’s ref again

Hope to feck we don't start him in away leg. Offers very little upfront and nowt defensively.

Yes, but they were by far the better team in the second half.

They weren't as dominant as we were in 1st half.

"we never even tried" - what a clownshoe you are man.
You set up for a draw last time here and should have been beaten comfortably.
We have nothing to fear going down FP as long as the manager doesn't fk things up with wrong tactics and team selection.
If we do go out, it will be on pens but I'm hopeful of a 1 goal win and at worst, a draw.
