Great cross for Taylor though - whose header was just a bit too close to the keeper, if you're being picky.Christie is an accident waiting to happen every game. Nothing will change my mind on him. Runs down the wing and just dribbles it to the opposition.
It feels very much to me like this is going to be a "building for next season" job. I don't think for one minute that is the remit given to Hughton, but that's how it's going to be. We need to scrape by into mid table this season and consolidate Hughton's style of play.
These players need to learn how to attack and score again. We'll need a good Grabban replacement. Hopefully by the end of the season we'll be looking very good, albeit far too far away to challenge and probably still inconsistent
We said this when we beat Coventry; at this level, take your chances of be prepared to get arsefucked. Barnsley had two shots on target and scored both.
You can say that to the power of ten in the PL.
Forest had plenty of chances, took none.
Opened us up to a sucker punch with a worldie and a stupid mistake from a team that was banking on a late winner and gave up when they went behind
Not claiming otherwise.They hit the woodwork on multiple occasions and had lots of other good chances and threat in dangerous areas.
I think that's very much the case, and that this season is dead in the water in terms of promotion.
The best thing we can do from here is allow Hughton to build HIS team, not lumber him with a ton of shit & mish-mashed players like we have before.
Mental that we keep employ proven managers like Hughton, AK & MON, yet bellends who have never played the game think lumbering them with a ton of dross players like Bonatini, Bachirou, Soudani etc. is gonna help them & us.
It's like hiring a plumber to do your bathroom, then getting you own tools to it at night when he pops off home for tea.
Not claiming otherwise.
But we were 3/0 for shots on target and they were 2/2
They played well, we played well but we fluffed our lines it's a shame Taylor Didn't have one of Guerrero's chances, he only had that header and the keeper did well their keeper was very good all game. What was samba so animated about after that rocket hit the top corner?
Ah don't think it did though did it?Ball before it was pulled back was out of play .
Think it was.Ah don't think it did though did it?
TrueJust saying sucker punch isn't an accurate characterisation. You're right that we could and should have scored a couple before they get their goals but so should they have.
if we had snuck it at the end they would have felt very unlucky given the threat they had all game.
Hard to see on my phone from that angle, looks close but doubt it's the whole ball. Guys never hitting another like that was unstoppable.Think it was.
