Official Match Thread Yeovil Town v Southend United - FA Cup

[Chris Powell's mate]

It is Sheridan Robbins. I think she's been OK. The northern monkey commentating with her is much more annoying.

This zone has dozens of posts about the supposed inadequacy of commentators.
Have never quite got the hang of this ire...

Wealdstone also out. Move that game on the 21st Nov to the 4th Nov I say

 

[Barling Magna]

301 Shrimpers fans attending.

 

[Strykr]

The same squad that’s been winning league games?

Not sure what your not getting.

This is not the team thats been winning games is it.

 

[SeldomSeenShrimper]

I’m asking why we’ve been bad in the cup for the past ten years - this year being no different. You implying it is ‘irrelevant’ that we lose today is an insult to the couple of hundred fans that have travelled

Loads of possible answers

**** managers

**** players

Bad day at the office

Take your pick ... this is what happens in football.

But today is totally irrelevant to what has happened in the past.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

0-2, I think the commentators have just orgasmed.

Is that why they turned the sound off?

 

[Chris Powell's mate]

"If that ball had fallen to Fonguck, he definitely would have had a shot."
Anybody in doubt now this is not our Vicky, lol?

 

[JCB]

"Why are the players playing badly?!?"

How about the obvious... They are over worked and burnt out.

Grow the hell up ... Toxic fans have no place amongst this group of heros

Valid criticism of player performance doesn’t make you ‘toxic’, I’m sure some of the players won’t be happy with how they’ve played today. Who the hell are you to decide who should support our club or not?

He wouldn't be playing if we weren't in this situation because of Ron!!!!

We have a 16 year old playing, no back up GK, a RB playing CM, 1 ST and missing our midfielders.

Much bigger issues than a player not tackling

It's amazing how many people think that now the takeover has been announced, all problems have been resolved and everything is Rosey

Took 5 years to create this shambles probably take another 5 to undo it all but with King Kev in charge it will be less

 

[LeedsSUFC]

You’re still missing the bigger picture. That 35 year old shouldn’t have started the last 8 games. Harry Taylor shouldn’t be playing centre back. We shouldn’t have 3 on the bench made up of one injured player and two youth team players. We should have strength in depth so losing Husin doesn’t come as such a huge blow. We shouldn’t have a squad who are clearly fatigued after having to start two games a week for the last several weeks. I could go on.

Harry Taylor is a better defender than he is a midfielder…

Agree with the rest though.

Sheridan Robins is from Bedfordshire, I think, so not the normal soothing zummerset tones, she can be abit OTT at times. Her father is a director at Yeovil Town.

 

[Tommy2holes]

A 16 year old is nothing to do with Deme’s inability to put a tackle in…

No but the embargo making us play a player who is essentially retired and now a coach for 90 minutes Saturday and Tuesday for weeks is.

Literally nothing has stuck for Cardwell today. Everything has bounced off him

 

[Floval Flyer]

Hope Ron choked on his caviar at lunch

 

[Barling Magna]

Blake on for Wood.

 

[Tinks]

Not a good day today

Wealdstone also out. Move that game on the 21st Nov to the 4th Nov I say

Madness. When would we be more likely to have a stronger squad? 4th Nov or 21st Nov?

For many of those 10yrs we've been crap in the league as well

 

[Barling Magna]

Cardwell's clever lob goes over the bar.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

So it goes.
