  • Maddison looking like a league 1 Darren Ambrose to me at the moment. Jogs around pretending to defend when we don't have the ball. Largely ineffective when we do. but will do something special once every few games, just enough to keep everyone hoping he's going to work out eventually.
  • Maddison been poor so far. Wasted a good build up there.

    Pains me to say but Maddison doesn't look worth a spot in the team atm.
    Hard to get him involved when 90% of our possession is across our back four. We're just too slow.
    I take it back. That cross 🤦

    Oh that was a woeful cross from Maddison. Wasted a lot of good work from Bogle and Shinnie.

    Underwhelming first 24 mins.
  • Fuck me Maddison is playing like a drain. 
  • There's a mistake on the BBC website - it says Burton are leading.  #fakescore

    Maddison today poor.  Smyth out wide, Bogle off.
    Replace with Chuks and Washington.
  • This is supposed to be the highlight of my week

  • Surprised by how well Burton pass and hold the ball, even when harried. Doing a job on us so far

    What a harried game, it's like watching 5-a-side
    That's Burton's gameplan.

    Not to let us settle.
    High press and harry us into making mistakes or slow it down until we disappear down our own rabbit hole.



  • Their pressing is relentless too - hopefully they’ll tire out and our quality might show.

    Nice bit of harrying the defender from Smyth there.

    Everyone having a dig at Maddison. 
    We have 10 other players on the pitch it's not all his fault

    If we continue to struggle to pass their midfield with very little movement, Im really going to be asking questions of our coaching and tactics.

    Credit to Burton here... There is absolutely no room for us!!

    We look shit but its not coincidence, its partly because Burton are setup so well against us

    I don't think I've watched a worse game of football. The whole spectacle is so so poor. Non league standard
  • We are actually terrible. Teams must love how you just have to pressure us and we will pass backwards and eventually make a mistake. It's been the same for a while which is why we are always so poor when we have the majority of the possession.

    No, but when he does something clearly shit that wastes the hard work of his teammates, we are allowed to mention it.

    We don’t look too clever but Burton have played very well tbf.

    You can't insult a player much more than calling them a league 1 Darren Ambrose...
