Very disjointed last 15 minutes. Need composure

hoosier-daddy · Post by **hoosier-daddy** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:13 pm

Bristol City should have been dead and buried after 50 minutes. A travesty if we don't win this.

Cov equalise v blades

For the first 65 minutes I’d go as far as to say this was our best performance of the season. Our defensive record is that good that maybe I should relax more when we decide to sit in, but it felt needless today. We may well still get the win but we started surrendering all ambition in this game too early for my liking.

Oh come on Trafford, goalkeepers do not get cramp!

Bristol City should have been dead and buried by half time. A travesty if we don't win this.

We lack killer instinct which is something we had in spades 2 years ago.

Bristol going for it. We need to keep working hard here

Well done lad.

9 additional minutes after Sheff W equalised against Coventry

All the added time for these “treatments” better not bite us on the ass

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:17 pm

Be just my luck there'll be 8 minutes injury time.
Have only enough nails left for 7.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:17 pm

7 added time.

7 minutes added time ffs.

Last 15 minutes have seen some incredible heavy footed passes

To many of our players looked knackered after 60 mins .

Lost momentum since Hannibal went off.

Cullen has been absolutely superb today.

Great from Laurent.

CalamityClaret · Post by **CalamityClaret** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:21 pm

That pass from Anthony from ridiculous when we're trying to break out and no one bollocking him. We are so lacking that type of leadership

CalamityClaret · Post by **CalamityClaret** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:21 pm

Was ridiculous

HahaYeah · Post by **HahaYeah** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:21 pm

Winning the Free kick I mean.

chekhov · Post by **chekhov** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:23 pm

The time wasting is quite annoying. Just get on your feet and play out the game. Ref just going to add on extra time. Pointless.

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:24 pm

Laurent has been superb at killing time since he came on.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:24 pm

NickBFC · Post by **NickBFC** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:24 pm

Completely lost our composure after total domination in the second half. As much as a Jekyll and Hyde performance as you're likely to see. An important win, but we need to be better for longer in games.

Take the 3 points and i am one happy Bunny

jedi_master · Post by **jedi_master** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:25 pm

Tougher end than it needed to be but I’ll think on about the first 60 minutes with some scintillating stuff. Another clean sheet too.

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:25 pm

Terrific that, more creative, leggy at the end but they are a good side.

We are title contenders whatever people will say. Keeping it ticking during an injury crisis.

hoosier-daddy · Post by **hoosier-daddy** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:25 pm

Good 3 points. Should have been 4-0 up though, so should have never had a second half like that.

But a solid first 60-65 minutes!

burnleymik · Post by **burnleymik** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:26 pm

Had to grind that out, but 3 valuable points, better than some of our recent performances.

Buxtonclaret · Post by **Buxtonclaret** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:26 pm

That'll do.
Played really well, for an hour or so.
Hung on after.

Bloody hard watch the last 30 mins but 3 decent points today!

Thought the first sixty five was the best and most coherent we've been for ages. We should have been a few clear. Last twenty five was rancid.

You can't dominate 90 minutes, especially away from home.

We didn't take our chances and that always meant we would be under pressure for the last 20 as they have nothing to lose.

Very very good performance.

BigGaz · Post by **BigGaz** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:27 pm

That's incredibly pleasing.

We've controlled the game for an hour, and then weve dug in and defended and fought when we lost our foothold.

I think that's great management from Parker. Demonstrates the faith he has in our defenders and it's obviously well justified.

Disappointing we didn't add more but we had more than enough chances to this time which is a big improvement, just a bit of sloppy finishing.

No complaints here, that's the sort of performance that gets you promoted.

willsclarets · Post by **willsclarets** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 2:28 pm

excellent result! Great for an hour. Mr right place right time Anthony is going to be a real asset this season. Some lovely deliveries too. Jyrod much improved and Koleosho far more productive. Midfield 3 very good for an hour and defence sound as usual. Lost our way a bit after an hour, but in terms of attacking patterns we seemed to have a lot more fluid movement. Just more ideas about how to hurt the opposition, and we should've scored two really.
