Will you shut up. WE ALL KNOW

Well from the comments you wouldnt have known....

 

[shrimpled]

This time last year we were top.

 

[Nestudas]

Oops York equalise

 

[Cricko]

What are the BSP rules ? Can we play with 11 men ?

Many teams have played and fought better with 10 men rather than 11...you are carping on about this as the only excuse we have.

I agree though wait a few more games before making any judgement.

Now we are bottom, can only get better from here now.:smile:

 

[Shrimper]

If we don't score against Northampton then I'd start to get a bit concerned about our strikers and attacking set-up.

2-0

Wonderful

 

[Shrimper]

2-0. Craddock.

Well its a pretty major factor. Wimbledon have conceded 6 with 11 men.
Dont remember Cheltenham doing much better against us with 10 men.

If we don't score against Northampton then I'd start to get a bit concerned about our strikers and attacking set-up.

This game aside after Saturday Ive no confidence in our front line until Harris and Eastwood come into the side...

 

[paddysat]

Oxford 18 shots to Blues 2...doesnt look like the "attacking substitutions" are working...

oh and just as a side note...Rotherham are losing 2-1 :smile:

 

[davewebbsbrain]

2 shots at goal so far not good enough. They have had 13.

We only have 10 men you 'fellow poster', what else do you expect

We won't start getting concern now.

7 goals let in the last 3 games (13 in the last 5 if you want to include Spurs friendly) and no goals scored. Not too fussed only being a few games in, but it looks like we are missing something at the moment!

Then again, we played a Championship side, conceded a terrible goal to Accrington, and have been playing the majority of this game with 10 men after a dodgy call from the ref

 

[WickfordShrimper]

The Football league is upside down ....

ok 2.0 its Bed time

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Remember Luggy lost his first 4 games and still won promotion with Plymouth with 102 points. Ive just put a bet on us to go up with 103 points.

Bottom of the table after that second goal.

Thats what we want to see :-)

Thats the crux of it.

Its a terrible start to the season whatever the reasons and need to get Harris/Eastwood back asap and need a positive reaction on Saturday.

Those words will come back to bite him on the arse I fear.
