Sat behind me the up field long ball tactical genius,s were quiet at 2-0 up then at 2-2 came the usual can,t pass useless get it up field came alive at 3-4 down they seem to find their full vocabulary I wonder do they really like us to win or do they just prefer moaning and these are people who have been watching for a long while but their knowledge of the beautiful game is nil.

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

if we played the game again would the tactics be the same. think not.

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

With the absence of Mr.Crooks' last night I did wonder whether Mr.Barry might get a start last night. He had quite a good game last season at Wimbledon. Probably wouldn't have made much difference, but at least he wants to play midfield.
What price a genuine left back in League 2?
But there are no bad teams or easy games. Even Crawley, who looked awful when Stanley tupped them, beat Luton on Saturday. The Daggers will be equally tough.
Certainly the case that, whenever Professor Coleman goes on the fishy site to exhort more people to come and watch Stanley, they seem to lose.
Onwards and onwards.

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

Our first two goals had nothing to do with our set up and were from freekicks.
Coleys wise enough to know you have to defend second balls against them and we didn't.
Didn't their centre mid score two,along with big Akis strike partner?.
The other disappointing one was we struggled to consistently hold an high-line,playing into their hands.
Coley changing things at halftime (and we weren't losing),suggests he realised our set up wasn't right for a team like Wimbledon
Positives,Sean with a goal and two assists.

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

A free kick may never have occured if we hadn't given em the ball deep in with that foul throw?

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

Come on Cashy, don't be like your nemesis the PM at Wednesday's questions. How about answering Baldy's question

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

To be fair to Cashy :eek:, without agreeing with him about JC and wishing he'd change the record occasionally :D, he's not paid to answer those questions - he pays to watch so is entitled to ask them ....

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

I,m sorry but I have to agree with you on this one Redraine sadly Procky who as been fantastic for Stanley looks like he,s coming to the end of his tenure with us hope I,m proved wrong wether Barry would have done any better on the night is anybody,s guess, just wondering if JC and JB where having one last look at Procky in a game senerio and have to make a hard decision on Procky,s future.

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

Sorry Andy, There can be no excuse for such a loss. Players have to be able to play out of position if needs be. We do have a great squad when fit. but we should be able to slot players in as needed. The manager accepts the blame for the tactics the players have to accept their share of the blame. There were one or two postives, the on loan Halliday was a good addition who was breath taking going forward. Bruna got a run out. although he struggled at left back, His free kick at the end was brilliant, He should play an attacking role more often, He is a little ring rusty but prolific when given a decent run out.

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

I thought up and till half time it was end to end exciting football but from the start of 2nd half the Wombles looked dominate, a superb goal & performance from Lyle Taylor settled the game, on the night we lost to a better team

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

It,s not excuses after playing and watching the game for 52 years football is about quality,experience,bit of luck and if your near the top of any table most teams play with a settled side uninterupted by injuries and suspensions, what I,m saying but for a well executed good brilliant turn and finishing by Tyler which was good enough to win any game we would have had a point with all the changes. When we get well beaten I,m the first to hold my hands up and say well done, but last night I thought we did just enough for a draw.

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

Completely agree, didn't make the result any easier to take though - neither did that golden nugget 'good game for a neutral' which has been quoted at me about half a dozen times today - of course I nodded but inside was screaming 'maybe so but I'm not a b****y neutral :(

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

Play people in a position thats not alien to em, or thought you may have understood that fact redraine? never expected baldy to, simple is far too technical fer him.:rolleyes: and as i had already stated it, i'm beginning to wonder.:rolleyes:The man you said respect about, completely avoided that issue, choosing instead to blame the players, every team will be weaker with 3/4 key players missing, fact, weaken the team even more by playing people outa position, is that so difficult to grasp?

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

So are you going to answer the question I asked or dodge it like you said the "Football Genius" has?

Re: The Wimbledon Match Thread.
 

No, it's not difficult to grasp and I do understand your point of view, but under the circumstances Coley found himself in with injuries/illness before kick off, exactly what team would you have picked, position wise? I , for one, was pleasantly surprised that we went 2 up front at home for a change and it seemed to work for a while until Coley changed things around.
