On the subject of Peacock, he looks very soft to me.

Needs to lose at least half a stone.

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.

McNamee did no better - yet no one booed him.

As for Monkhouse. We bombed him out for no good reason. I'd understand the celebration if Sturrock was still here but hardly anyone (Peacock) was here when Monkhouse was. He'd waltz into our team though no problems.

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.

 Doh

Obedayi had a good opening 10 or 15 minutes, looked the most lively, then faded and faded and faded, to the point where he is rooted to the spot when Paynter played him in at the end.

I don't want to post much because I know it'll come back to look like I have over-reacted, all I will say is I'm getting rather miffed about our home performances and am regreting the season ticket, it's a bit of a fuck having to travel to home games when you can't perform at home, even if it is only from Cardiff. I have a lot more respect to the fans that come from afar now.

At least Mcnamee can control and cross a football, Dave.

Agree again. Late on Billy played a good ball to him and instead of running on to it he just stood there and watched it. Crap. Utter crap.

What absolute fucking bollocks.

Send the loan players back and get some Swindon players in.

Mid table at best for us this year

Paynter was the only player who genuinly appeared to give a shit today, shoot me down but if David Beckham can get man of the match for 30 mins, so can Paynter

First Half
----------
Kennedy was out of his depth. Amankwaah was positionally woeful. The defence looked like it would crack every time Hartlepool attacked. Hutchinson is a lazy sod at times. And Tope didn't play well. Revell ran around a lot without joy, and without winning a header. JPM gave it a go in the first half, Ferry tried to play neat passes, but all sideways and backwards. Macca tried hard but a 1 in 10 decent cross count isn't good enough.

We still created a good chance to claw one back, which was headed wide as we were celebrating.

Monkhouse is still average I'm afraid Michael. But I don't begrudge him celebrating in front of our fans. A well taken goal, but he had hours to slot it in.
------

Second half.
--------------
Tap tap tap hoof tap tap tap hoof. That sums it all up. Hartlepool sat back and soaked up the lack of pressure. LJF replaced Kennedy by necessity. Revell went of injured and was inexplicably replaced by Peacock ahead of Paynter. JPM became shitter as the half went on. Tope missed a sitter of a header.

No urgency, no fight today.

Macca actually looked like creating something though. He played some good balls in and acutually ran onto balls to him. Thought that if we were going to score it would have come through him.

Agree about Monkhouse though. He's a decent enough direct winger. I'd pick him over O'Brien or Tope.

I think I sat beside you on the bus

Saying its time for Wilson to go, Its only our second loss of the season, it was always going to come. Also harping on that 1 point from 2 home games is relegation form and something needs to change quickly....

Macca looked far more threatening. I can actually remember him making at least 5 good crosses. I remember Tope making none.

Abysmal team performance.  Very unhappy about this.  We lost the game from the third minute.

Hartlepools goalie first save came from a Kennedys pass back froma dead ball situation in the 43 rd minute.

The tactics, if there were any, was all wrong.

I'm already sorry that I bought a ticket for next saturday.  It was that bad.

Roll on saturday.
