Been wondering that for ages. We always seem to go for Hollywood passes, or try to pass through a wall of players...or go it alone when there is someone better placed. And thats without our tendency to pass it around the back when the opposition are pressing and looking to nick the ball. Our decision making is atrocious most of the time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Score that and we are cruising.  Instead McNair misses, and our best attacking threat gets injured, they score, and then our only CB gets injured. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dan_Boro_Till_I_Die 1,179 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020  I'm at the game don't think we have played badly. That penalty was shocking. Then that set the bar and everything else has just gone to ***. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
boro-unger 3,816 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 We've been pretty poor first half. Big improvement needed. We look tired tbh. Couple of injuries haven't helped 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_Moose 387 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I turned the radio on to hear we had missed a penalty were 1-0 down and had lost 2 players to hamstring injuries. Fair to say I turned the radio straight off. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 The atmosphere is flat as a fart and I really don't think it's helping. This really has been one of those 'If it can go wrong, it will go wrong' nights. We're just lucky Birmingham are not very good. Great ball in for the goal aside, that is. But then we do just keep letting them have the run on us down the left side. Thoroughly blaming whoever is on the PA in place of Mark Page tonight, generated absolutely sod all in the build up. #FreeMarkPage 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) Nothing against Wood when I say this but he's been our main substitute defender for over a month now most people know he's not 'there' yet but Jesus Christ it's a miracle this hasn't been exposed earlier as maybe a serious problem beyond our injury list? That decision to recall Stubbs from a successful loan spell then loaning him out to Pardew is looking curious right now as Fry's stacked onto the injury pile and all we have left to play next to the 2 midfielders is young Wood.

ballyclover 210 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 nigel pearson.......missed opportunity there i think. However poor old Woody just going 2 steps forward then 5 back..a run of 5 good games and now it seems that confidence has gone again since the spurs game. It just cant seem to get it right..injuries aside. Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 The players look absolutely shattered. Don't want to pin it all on that but the fact we've had 2 injuries in the opening half does not bode well. Fry's in particular looked like a muscular injury. Desperate for a defender.

Brunners 7,952 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Just everything that could go wrong has gone wrong. Lets just get it into the 10 day break and regroup. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Think a lot of this can be attributed to how many games our small squad has had to deal with in the last month. This 10 day gap until the next game will do us the world of good. Will also give us time to try and bring a few extra bodies in too. Hopefully Fry isn't out for too long, as he's our only "fit" senior centre half. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'd suggest higher up myself. But we always treated Pearson as an afterthought when picking managers the most bizarre overlook we've made in recent years for me. His Leicester team was the best Championship side I've ever seen they were a machine even hiring Pearson after Monk but I guess the ships sailed on it all now. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
