Eustace team, park the bus.

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:23 pm

Was it? You'd haev to be a brave ref to give that in thee 90th min.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:23 pm

They've defended well. We haven't moved the ball quick enough to give them problems

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:24 pm

Not a pen on the replay.

Cooclaret · Post by **Cooclaret** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:25 pm

Travis is something else

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:25 pm

Give them credit, they've defended very well with only 10 men. We haven't looked like ever breaking through.

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:26 pm

We've really played into their hands this half.

Casper2 · Post by **Casper2** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:26 pm

Egan-Riley awful

claretskeith · Post by **claretskeith** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:27 pm

The number of times we have given the ball away is obscene. We need to improve on that a hell of a lot.

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:27 pm

Egan Riley is just not a championship level defender

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:27 pm

Dreadful fk.

Blyclaret · Post by **Blyclaret** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:28 pm

Omg … egan riley … needs another stint in Scotland

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:28 pm

They've had the best chances in the game

Foshiznik · Post by **Foshiznik** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:28 pm

Wonder if we will see a shot on target this half

Casper2 · Post by **Casper2** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:28 pm

Benson waste of effing time

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:28 pm

Benson hasn't played for a long time.

Casper2 · Post by **Casper2** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:29 pm

Foster embarrassing

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:30 pm

Foster that is embarrassing

Blyclaret · Post by **Blyclaret** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:30 pm

Please not brownhill

JimmyRobbo · Post by **JimmyRobbo** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:30 pm

How mny fouls does Beck give away.

Pity we didn't sell Benson

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:30 pm

Should have won that. Very disappointed

Brownhill!

claretskeith · Post by **claretskeith** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:31 pm

Played well in parts but Rovers deserved a point.

whiffa · Post by **whiffa** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:31 pm

Brownhill should never be on set pieces, been saying it for years. Nevermind, a good point and unlucky not to get all 3.

Blyclaret · Post by **Blyclaret** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:31 pm

Why the **** does Brownhill take free kicks when he useless at them

NL Claret · Post by **NL Claret** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:31 pm

Pub team

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:31 pm

That was rubbish tbh in terms of creating final third. But credit to them

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:32 pm

We dominated but struggled against a total park the bus job from red card onwards. I feared this game just cos of our turnover, all being said, I will take the point and continuing our unbeaten run against them. Today was a risky game with all our debutants and Cullen being injured (our most important player).

Take the point, move on, smash them at Eaood.

Foshiznik · Post by **Foshiznik** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:32 pm

Well, that was shite. 1 shot on target making it a grand total of 3 in the last 3 games…

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:32 pm

Would have taken a draw before the match after the turmoil of the past couple of weeks. Have two weeks now to get the players knowing each other. This is where they need to go off somewhere to bond!

Shaggy · Post by **Shaggy** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:32 pm

Not best pleased with that. We look couldn’t score if we played another 90mins

Stonehouse · Post by **Stonehouse** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:32 pm

Last week we’d have settled for a point.

Newcastleclaret93 · Post by **Newcastleclaret93** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:32 pm

Got to take that performance with a pinch of salt

Sides never played together and we looked great first half.

Lots of positives for us to work on

Casper2 · Post by **Casper2** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:33 pm

Awful , not enough up front , no credit to them

Longsider · Post by **Longsider** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:33 pm

3 days ago I'd have bitten your hand off for a point where we were unlucky not to get three. This team will gel and be there or there abouts at the end of the season UTC

Take the point and...breathe.

Foshiznik · Post by **Foshiznik** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:33 pm

Not sure why a draw is a good result because our owners decided to sell all our players at the last minute

warksclaret · Post by **warksclaret** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:33 pm

You can see why Benson has not managed to get a club to buy him, and surprise surprise got injured again. We do really need to practice our free kicks, Josh should be no where near them. Cant see why Egan Riley came on in preference to Humphreys

PWBFC · Post by **PWBFC** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:33 pm

In the circumstances, that was okay.

Couple of weeks on the training ground will now do us good.

Rovers have defended very well, Dyche levels of defending.

Always hard to break teams down who park the bus

Agree, especially tough when they went down to 10 men.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:34 pm

We have some good players to come back in as well. Might look better when Flemming is in the team.

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:35 pm

This is why I said the Flemming signing takes our window from a 4/10 to a 7/10 - we were crying out for a proper operator in that '10' /attacking midfield/second striker area.

There was no composure as soon as the ball got central outside their penalty area

Robbie_painter · Post by **Robbie_painter** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:35 pm

Hopefully Zian will bring a bit of creativity because there wasn’t much on show today.Laurent looked quality in the holding role though.

Foshiznik · Post by **Foshiznik** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:35 pm

Tresor would have scored today…

dvalley69 · Post by **dvalley69** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:35 pm

Apart from the backheel, Brownhill put in an absolute stinker of a performance today - he's getting worse year on year.
Overall, some good intensity and good patterns of play, but nowhere near enough quality in the final third apart from the goal. Gotta feel a bit more positive after last weekend's debacle. **** look a decent outfit and will definitely be a top 10 side under Eustace.
Time to get some work in over the break.

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:35 pm

Those ******* free kicks around the box when we have everyone forward, ******* pathetic!!

However they haven't beaten us and it's essentially half a new team, we'll improve!

I struggled to work that one out. Isn't Humphrys left footed?

There's no football in that ******* team. Absolute filth all game.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Aug 31, 2024 2:35 pm

Eustace sets them up well defensively. They'll be fine this year unfortunately
