Sharp so near yet so far, story of our season promise not realised by shockingly poor investment.

[Ayamonteblade]

why are we so good at giving late goals away - its broken our season

[CHIPBUTTYBLADE]

Hope our generosity keeps the Dingles up.

piss poor finishing again and again and to top it of calamity defending a terrible game from all players bar duffy. we score two we conceed 3 lmao

Our players must wear Aladdin style boots because they can’t keep the bloody ball down when they shoot. Poor performance except for maybe 20 minutes but if we’d took our chances we’d still have won easily.

Moore’s not good enough if we can’t keep Blackman, he was so well protected last season it just looked like he was ok but definitely not a Championship first choice for me. Poor attempted a save for their second which ultimately lost our momentum and his kicking when we were chasing it helped Barnsley more than us.

Moore was better than the alternatives we had at a lower level though wasn’t he Bully?

I always bemoaned the fact that he seemed to be beaten far too easily from distance and his kicking was crap, but we were so much better than anybody else last year it didn’t really count for much. I had this debate with a few people (where IS Rav by the way?), but this season has been a whole new ball game. Blackman is head and shoulders the better keeper and not just cus he’s 6’7”. I’d love us to re-sign him if at all possible.

He was better than what we had m8 I never disputed that,what I did think was we paid too much for him cos I didn't think he was worth what we paid you could see the deficiencies but most chose to ignore cos as you say it didn't matter cos we were so much better,well now it does matter and we have to spend more money to right the situation I'd have just rather us got someone who could step up to this level which wasn't such a big ask with the money we spent,I agree you buy for the level and improve as you rise but we spent a lot of money on him that's gone now imo we could have spent a lot less and still been in this position or just got someone better with the amount we spent
