He's been singled out because his performance today was exactly what we were told before we signed him. Shitebag who goes missing in big games and lacks confidence and that's what we got. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairnabeau Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I'm still fucking seething at that last sub today. I was exactly the same, and tbh really hacked off with all 3. It was blatant we had completely lost the center of midfield yet Taiwo, who'd have at least put a challenge in, is nowhere to be seen. The sub of Harris for Shepps put the tin lid on it for me. We needed grit so we bring on a forward to play RM [emoji29] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a start he beat his man, put a cross in and should have had a penalty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We needed grit so we bring on a forward to play RM Why bring on Lee Miller against two giant centre backs too. At the start of the game we gave them serious problems with the ball on the deck playing it into the channels. We got nothing from high balls all game. Taiwo craigen and o'hara should've got a run out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We needed grit so we bring on a forward to play RM [emoji29] Calling Shepherd a forward is stretching it a bit.I think the first sub was fair enough I would've preferred O'Hara but looks like Miller will be Houstons go to 3rd choice striker but Shepherd on instead of Craigen was just fucking mental then that last fucking sub he was going to being on O'Hara then changed it to Gasparotto with the red card but to take off our main goal scoring threat made no sense at all. I still probably would've brought on Gasparotto but taken off Gallagher and went to a back 3. Quite what he thought a partnership of Shepherd and Miller was going to achieve is something I'll never understand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn't going to do the boys confidence any good at all.And that today was crying out for Tommy T all day long as for Luca at right back stone the f*cking crows 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitebag who goes missing in big games and lacks confidence and that's what we got. So you write him off after one poor show. Just like craigen last year.Look at Reilly today written off by the world yet turned up big time.You're far too quick to judge imo but it'd be shit boring if we all agreed. So go have your day in the sun you've been waiting all summer for it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PG.Colossus Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Without context this means nothing tbh. Was it one on one with grass to run into? Yes. 3 opportunities for Harris but stopped and went back each time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichieBairn Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 It's going to be a long season if Lee Miller is our third choice (first sub) striker. His legs were gone 12 months ago!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Yes. 3 opportunities for Harris but stopped and went back each time. Yip, agreed. I was one of the morons shouting to take the defender on. Wish I understood football. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PipoIsABairn Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 If Taiwo is fit he has to play ahead of Kerr in the middle. The speed of the game just completely bypassed Kerr today and he reverted to forcing our play across the middle rather than through it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but then if your supposed first choice winger isn't going to bother trying to take on the full back then your as well having someone that can at least cross and make a pass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's some player that Reilly, managing to score 2 goals despite not touching the ball for one of them and looking as confused as anyone else while the announcer excitedly credited him with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if he's the mental lightweight that he's made out to be it'll be a long, hard season for him and subsequently us. It's up to Houston to help him grow a backbone and accept praise when due and, equally, criticism when due. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
