Swindon town V Hartlepool United official matchday thread

[Crozzer]

Danny's interview.

Worst performance of the season, poor.

Sloppy goal after 2 min.

Second best throughout, have to do the work, didn't do the work.

Tippy Tappy balls right from the start, never got the game plan going.

No urgency or know how.

Callum was having a hard time against Brown, Leschinal did well.

Revell is o.k.

Peacock and Paynter finished together, service was poor.

A defeat not easy to take at home.  

Will keep working, need consistency.  

Sloppy goals given away.

This league is very tight.

Final product not good enough.

Douglas was missed greatly, but we have to get through it.

No mention of being fucked.

[michael]

Well that wasn't very good from the home side.

Monkhouse probably man of the match, set up the first and scored the second.

It could be that he only applies himself like that against us, but I think I'd have him in our side.

Silly booking though. I don't think he got any abuse at all until then.

Kennedy had a hard game but James Brown looks a class player to me.

[Iffy's Onion Bhaji]

Truly awful today. We simply weren't at the races from the word go. Hartlepool were a team looking to get us on the break and it worked. Our defence had an off day. Cuthbert and Amankwaah were poor, Greer had an off day and Kennedy wasn't great either. We just didn't look like scoring though. I guess they played with men behind the ball for much of the match but we lacked substance and could not break them down. Tope started OK but got worse as the game went off. We had no bite in midfield, lacked the edge upfront and were suspect at the back as I have said. Annoying really.

Hartlepool had 3 chances and took 2. We had numerous ones and took none. Hutchinson was awful today, Ferry had a stinker too. I guess we were due a bad game but 1 point from the last 2 home games when I thought we would be good for at least 3 is dissapointing. Back down to earth and a wonderful mid table season that beckons.

[Crozzer]

They'll start.

[Samdy Gray]

Wilson should be more pissed off at that performance than he was at the ref last week. Absolutely dire.

Defence was shaky as hell, midfield too lightweight, winger (Tope) had no end product and front two completely gutless. Awful.

The only one to come out with any kind of credit was MacNamee for me.

[Dr Pierre Chang]

Tope was worst player on the pitch by far, he was absolutely dreadful.

He was like an even shitter Ricky Shakes.

Agree there Sam. Thought Macca was very good today.

[Luci]

Oh and can I say that I am all for female officials but when they can't use a fricking flag until the fans are screaming behind them or the ref has already given the free kick then dont bother.  Stupid woman.

[DV]

Well that was rubbish.

I thought Wilson got the formation and team selection wrong. You are missing Douglas. The middle 3 have been doing well so you need to replace like for like. I dont like this changing formation, what seems like every week.

Easton and Timlin should have come in for Douglas like for like.

Topi, seems im not just in the minoirty but completely on my own was alright today. I thought he looked our most dangerous player (which isnt saying much) he took on his man and got some crosses in. Yet got loads of stick for it. McNamee on the other hand was no better at all yet is getting praise and no stick what so ever.

Revell is crap and Hutchinson isnt much better. Peacock won a bit in the air. None of our strikers are goal scorers. Revell, Paynter and even to some extent Peacock are all decent enough second strikers. This needs sorting out, 6 months ago.

Our fans, crap as usual. No support, targeting one player.

Fuck knows what i'd do next week but I wouldnt pick that team again.

[michael]

As much as we get on his back, Tope at least has something about him, and with the exception of Macnamee was the only one who looked like he'd make something happen.

Ben Hutchinson, on the other hand, is a waste of a squad number.

You sexist!

You are not on your own my friend, because I totally agree.

[Samdy Gray]

Eh, you what?

Yeah, he beat his man a few times, but he either ran into a dead end or out of play. On the rare occasion he did catch up with the ball he just passed it to the goalkeeper! Utter crap.

[STFC_Gazza]

Macca, Amankwaah and The Lesh were the only decent players on the pitch today. Oh and Billy put in some effort

Greer, Kennedy and Cuthbert were shit.

I have no idea what Wilson see's in Tope, Fucking useless sack of shit, that said he was marginally better than Hutchinson who was absolutely clueless. I hope neither ever wears a town shirt again especially Hutchinson. Absolute fucking donkey. Tope just pisses me off as he doesnt jump, doesnt chase a ball unless he can have a shot on goal. Neither are the answer, Absolute wank the pair of them. Hutchinson just stood there, fell over all the time and really didnt seem to have a clue what he was supposed to be doing.

JP Was ok, Ferry was just lost, Macca was ok but no one in the box had a clue what to do (see hutchinson and tope), Revell just wasn't himself today.

Paynter was all over the pitch when he came on and did ok, Peacock gave 100%. We rushed a lot. AFTER the first goal we should have stepped back and tried to slow the game down a bit but didnt.

Monkhouse was a cunt for his celebrations but I would happily have him back in our team.

POSITIVES: Only 2nd loss of the season, so not all bad, Some guy on the bus was saying "1 POINT OUT OF 2 HOME GAMES IS RELEGATION FORM" and "WE NEED A NEW MANAGER" some of our fans really are retards.
