Away Match Day Thread 21/5/2021 Playoff L1 Blackpool FC V OUFC

[Mad Dog]

Chanting? Really? How dare they sing songs at a football match.

They certainly weren't very gracious in victory, which I felt was a shame, considering our fans' kind gesture in the first leg

 

[OX14]

Wow. Just wow.
Had you said Hanson Hall, Grayson, Kelly sure.
But deadwood Henry, Barker?

It's a forgone conclusion the rest of them will be sent packing. I agree with Barker, Ruffles, Lee shouldn't come back. Shodipo I would like us to sign and we need some real competition for Henry and sykes.

 

[AbsoluteZero]

Thought when we went a bit more direct and supported the attack we were very good. If Shodipo had not seen the goalie make a save with his eyes closed not knowing what was happening it may have been interesting. We just need to stop giving the ball away on the half way line. We tend to overplay and lose possession in really bad areas of the pitch, something teams like Blackpool, Peterborough, Hull and Sunderland don't tend to do as they move the ball forward much quicker and don't lose the ball in the middle of the pitch because it is never there. It is very small margins. The manager has earned another go at it but we can't be 10 points from 10 games again next time.

If sykes had any end product whatsoever he would be a very good player.

 

[DXB Yellow]

Wow. Just wow.
Had you said Hanson Hall, Grayson, Kelly sure.
But deadwood Henry, Barker?

The four you mentioned are a given. Barker has shown signs of brilliance but his work rate off the ball and movement is quite frankly embarrassing. He didn't step up for the 2 biggest games and drifts out of games for large periods even when he is 'on form'.
Henry and been a shadow of his former self this season and isn't going to get any better in my opinion.

"You're f*****g s**t"

We held an applause for one of their own in the home leg in the 9th minute.

100% this.

 

[Foley]

Do you think KR has done a good job do you think the start of the last two seasons was acceptable do you think he’s a tactically good manager seriously

Two play offs in 2 seasons finishing above Ipswich, Charlton
Do you seriously think he has done a bad job?

Lee weighed in with some useful goals - admittedly poor in the playoffs but on a free wouldn't be too bad a shout

Not sure why they got to do an applause before the game while we had to do it in the 9th minute interrupting the flow of the game.

 

[brassmonkey]

It was a bit weird hearing blackpool sing about robinson for most of the 1st half. James cordon etc. I cant even remember the name of the blackpool manager.

Don’t be so sensitive.

I reckon we can do better though. His brother looked a better player to me.

 

[MC Yellow]

Some rally random comments on here.

 

[Yellows1]

How can you possibly know via a TV screen that they were arrogant en masse?

Did you watch the game? They were properly taking the P**s out of us, not sure why, Blackpool is a shithole and that’s putting it politely.

 

[Concretebob]

Don’t be so sensitive.

I feel for the donkeys on the beach tonight.

 

[Foley]

You think we started the last two seasons well are you sure

Goodness.
He wasn't talking about the start. He wsnt talking about the middle of finish. He was talking about the 2 seasons where we made the play offs.

 

[Symp59]

Sykes tries but he's got to get alot stronger ,I was lucky enough to watch Hebbard ,Houghton and Magilton we need a few like that . Here's hoping

 

[Oldman159]

No shame at all in tonight’s game.

good to watch.
