Barnes on

Attendance tonight looks less than 15k tonight. Getting less and less week on week. That’s surely going to be a concern for Pace with season tickets on sale.

Here we go, Barnes for Flemming.

How have we still not scored, so many chances tonight

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:25 pm

Esteve read it beautifully to cut out the trouble. Kept the ball with a nice touch but then chose the wrong option.

A good time to bring on Ash.

Edwards? Nah
Benson? Nah

Barnes? Get on.

Incredible

Was always going to be this.

At least we'll notice he's actually there...whereas Flemming.

BobSykes · Post by **BobSykes** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:26 pm

Players on the bench all know they are absolutely not coming on. Shelvey in particular, sat watching the clock.

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:28 pm

Esteve brilliant once again. Reads the game so well.

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:28 pm

Christ are some of you lot negative. Feel for your significant others if you're that negative in your personal lives.

Parker set the team up superbly tonight, why can't you just give credit where it's due?

90% confident of the win 10% jitters. Come on lads, see it through

longsidepies · Post by **longsidepies** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:29 pm

The football is turgid.

Get to the end of the season and get rid of Parker, whatever league we are in.

Dreadful stuff

Better that than a video of his highlights on YouTube:

We're going to concede. It's coming.

That's so silly...

It's much more likely their significant others are the ones winding them so tight. That's how it works with me, anyway.

If turgid gets us promoted and keeps us up I'm sure most fans would take it

Shelvey coming on.

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:32 pm

Why did Foster switch back inside onto his right? Stretch your legs to the byline....

BobSykes · Post by **BobSykes** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:32 pm

Ah, well here is Jonjo for 3 mins. He might get one touch I suppose.

Shaggy · Post by **Shaggy** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:32 pm

Shelvey on 89mins lol

Fosters best game

LTUK89 · Post by **LTUK89** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:33 pm

What happened to receiving the ball on the half turn and squaring up your man? This one touch pass straight back to the centre backs that we do over and over is the absolute pits.

rexe78202 · Post by **rexe78202** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:33 pm

First kick of the ball with a super ball

Because he has low intelligence.

Got the athleticism of a premier league player but the skill and intelligence of a non league player.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:33 pm

You can tell we've lost momentum in the second half. Some people just didn't have anything they wanted to post in the first half when we were well on top creating chances

JR1882 · Post by **JR1882** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:33 pm

End product has been poor all round, final pass, cross, corners and indeed finishing when the chances have come. Hopefully Edwards will bring some quality in those situations.

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:33 pm

Foster's best game.

Not sure JJS will be up to speed but let's see.

tarkys_ears · Post by **tarkys_ears** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:33 pm

Omg. Shelvey... Passed forward

Send him back!!!

BobSykes · Post by **BobSykes** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:34 pm

Shelvey showed more attacking intent in his first intervention than the rest of the team in 10 matches

I can't begin to imagine the meltdown on here if I said that.

You make it sound like we've been awful.

There's been lots of research done in to this, it's all about keeping possession and giving the opposition less time on the ball. Therefore, theoretically limiting their chances to score.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:36 pm

2nd and 18 unbeaten. God we're sh*t

NickBFC · Post by **NickBFC** » Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:36 pm

A win is a win at this stage. Good first half, the usual cautious second. On another day we would have scored 4 or 5. Move on.

This is must be why he hasn't been risked more than 5 mins so far.

Nothing wrong with that. Their keeper kept them on it. Feck chair for Trafford
