blackpool match report

Right....

Evans - 6 - Played alright, wasnt called upon too often. Made two very important stops. One he got a hand to shot which then failed to creep over the line, he went up for a cross dropped it near enough at a blackpool players feet but manage to re-claim the ball with a geriant jones style dive and catch

Collins - 6- Did his job, nothing more, nothing less really

O'Hanlon - 6 - Very steady as always, won alot in the air

Ifil - 6 - Went about his job very well, got in his one terrible miss-timed tackle....other than that was very good, made one vital hook clearence

Smith - 6 - Steady and got forward well seemed to want too much time on the ball when very forward and deliveries werent that good

Heath - 5 - Didnt show me much to be honest, nice work ethic just didnt go alot going forward. Crosses werent very good and corners were awful

Whalley - 6 - Very good, got stuck in passed the ball well and gave Nicolau alot of service on the left, we looked a much worse team without him. Once we went off our midfield dissapeared in an attacking sense

Pook - 7 - Thought he did very well, got forward well, looked calm on the ball and wasnt afraid to get stuck in. He is one of the best things to come out of our youth team in a while

Nicolau - 6 - Did everything perfectly bar deliver, he took his man on got past him but crossing was awful. He looked for the ball, shouted for it and most important he is very good and willing defensivly for a winger (take note fat bastard howard) if only his final ball was better.

Fallon - 6 - Worked his bollocks off, won alot in the air, spread it out wide well, just wasnt presented with many chances. Should have had a penalty, blatant shit pull on Fallon, his shirt was about 3 yards behind him. Should not be allowed to take free kicks ever again!

Cureton - 6 - Did alright, likes to go left, picked up the ball but wasnt really willing to run at the defenders, probably lacking in confidence, needs a goal

----------------

Jenkins - Not a midfielder, but tried to bring a bit of calmness when he had the ball

Roberts - Didnt look interested

Shakes - Bought on 20 minutes too late, not frightened to take a player on

The play was alright and for most of the game we seemed very good in midfield, and the defence wasnt overall troubled. Wasnt overally happy with our attacking play, we worked the ball out wide very well on alot of occasions but the final delivery just wasnt good enough from just about everyone. On another day Fallon might have got 1/2/3 off of Nicolau crosses.

Drums at football are annoying.....its not tangerine its fucking orange....

Blackpool are by far and away the biggest divers in the league, every time someone goes near Kiegan Parker he hits the deck with his arms out like hes going a sky dive. I think he was only actually legitimatly fouled once.....got booked for diving could have easily gone.

Coid also booked for diving, so stupid, edge of the box I thought he had a good first touch and could have hit a decent shot on goal, instead he hit the deck. Ref blew whistle *seems like forever* points in our direction.

Main points really, I hope this isnt the end of Summerbee we need his quality deliveries. Heath didnt impress me and Shakes needs a bit longer than 5 minutes.

Guess I'm happy with a draw, seen as we always do however I think if we are going to do ANYTHING in this division we need to win games like this...
