    This game was never going to be a walkover, why is everyone talking like we should have smashed them already? Particularly how we’ve been playing lately.
    Don’t think anyone thought we’d smash them but would expect to have created more chances and opportunities against bottom of the league when we need one more win.
    Why? It’s not PlayStation football, teams actually try to compete even if not so good. That’s peoples problem, expectancy

    A really tough watch. Half the team not at the races. Lucky to not give a penalty away. 

    Need a big improvement in the second half.

    Too many passengers.

    Can anyone tell me (other than punt it forward or hope for a set play) what our attacking game plan is? 

    Wing backs who don’t attack, midfielders who can’t pass forward and strikers completely starved of service.

    Burke off for Collins, Carey off for Knibbs and either full back off for Campbell.

    Dull as fuck.

    Both Hull & Swansea winning this afternoon. If we don't get anything today I fear we wont get any more points this season. 

    Thus really is a must win game.

    Given how we've usually set up this season, contain in the First Half, its not a surprising 45mins
    The opposition will disappoint a lot, but so far going as I'd have expected.
    Sheff Wed have had the possession, but haven't done anything with it, apart from being robbed of a penalty. Can take that as a bit of fortune given the Norwich penalty we were denied, and the Oxford penalty that should never have been given.
    Would make changes in the second half, but yeah... Exactly what I expected so far.

    if this doesn't get any better @cantersaddick can we nip back to the fuel shortage thread and have a right verbal punch-up?

    edit: this is a light hearted joke

    Literally nobody was suggesting we would smash them. I think a lot of us thought we might at least be able to pass and attack competently. Getting to half time as second best is nothing to be proud of, and a couple of our players are nothing more than a liability so far.

    There's nothing like a great game of football  .

    we are horrific, even if we stay up i think jones should go with our performances, even if we do stay up it has been a huge part down to others points deduction

    SW are terrible, we don't look any better than them.

    Burke needs to feck right off. Absolute liability. That challenge of his earlier was a penalty, thankfully the ref bottled it. 

    NJ needs to go feckin metal at our lot, cause we look like we will lose this game. 

    Where has our grit and determination gone??

    They might have had 70% possession but they’ve done almost nothing with it. They’ve had 2 shots to our 7. They’ve had 24 final third entries to our 33.

    At a guess, chambers inverted wing back that goes into midfield to pass the ball about a bit with Coady dropping back and Bell shifting left.

    Of course that would need us to pass it about and not lump it down the right

    As things stand, Oxford will need two wins and possibly a draw from their last three games to overhaul us...

    Terrible first half. No urgency.

    Burke looks re-animated as a zombie. Only seen more stiffness in an old people's home after overdosing on Viagra!

    I know its been said and that is obvious that Stevie wonder can see it but we 100% need better players next year.

    This has been us all year, give up possession and limit the opposition to not to much - then actually create some of the best chances ourselves, but not finish them. It’s crap to watch, but I don’t think we have the squad for much else.

    Godsake Charlton can you just put some fucking effort in .Its not rocket science win and we are safe.
  • Lord this is awful. 

     We are sleepwalking to relegation here. 

    If Wednesday had any real punch up front we would be losing comfortably.

    Clarke, Burke, Carey & Dykes all absolutely  appalling.

    Earn your money Nathan and sort this out.

    Always gonna be a tough match. 

    Let’s not forget, if it wasn’t for their points deduction they would actually be on 15 points and only 26 points adrift of the team above them. 

    The deduction is clouding how good they actually are.

    That’s a poor half from Charlton. Barely created a decent chance. We have no width, no creativity. Although we’ve had more attempts at Goal, you’ve got to think that if Wednesday score, we won’t get back into it.
