Saddlers up, we're off to Walsall (A) 17/8

[TANGODANCER]

Lets visit the Bury game shall we...?? Yep.......long chat about that .......meanwhile back at football.....Henry gets a claim foe a free kick turned dow and...there's six mins to go. Vela, Trotter Henry and.......the keeper saves from a Proctor snap shot.

[TANGODANCER]

Corner, Proctor and.....Beevers heads a strong one wide. It's goals that count lad, xxxx the glory. Howard sets us off via Beevers. A passing speel for us and then.....Preoctor, Beevers, Wheater, Vela....and they clear and attack and win a corner. SAre we the ones with ten men.....corner clears everybody for a goal kick. Time for that equaliser lads?....Ameobi and....we get a throw and....ref over-rules the liner and gives it to the Saddlers. Now then, we have it and visit but we reclaim it and....and....Ameobi...loses it and then we reclaim via Wheater and Beevers. Now, lads, now.....and Ameobi goes offside.

And......micman announces three mins added and.......Beevers and.....ref ignores a nudge on Ameobi. Throw us and Trotter Beevers, poor pass and then Vela and..a bit of sloppy stuff before it comes back and we clear. Morris for them now and...Wheater clears, they have it, we win it back and then lose it. Oh goody, we're off to the Bury game.....and....it's 1-0 them at the break.....

Another half time miracle needed from parky. Started well agaibst 11 but since the red truly dreadful. The last 10 minutes an embarrassment. Ameobi having a shocker and Henry looking like he wants to be somewhere else. Trotter ambling around and vela looking like a lost boy. Sideways nothing passing followed by long ball shite which is being easily dealt with. 2 wide men not playing wide. Clough or anderson on bench but who will provide them with service?

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Meant no good against 10. Massive cock up from set piece between keeper and defender. Not sure who was at fault. There's still a win in this. We've been the better side.

I'd second that but we have to improve. Lack of urgency in midfield - we need to pass it much quicker and not just long. Tire out the ten. Ameobi has had some good touches but more awful ones and simply isn't sprinting to support Proctor. Wingers are switching often and have looked capable but we need a link man in the middle. I'll be surprised if Keshi isn't on for Ameobi before the hour, maybe even at HT. Would be a good game for Zach but I don't know if PP would give him 30-45 minutes.

We just need to make the ball and opponents work harder.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Ha, just read your second post LE and I managed to agree with a lot of that too! Far from irreversible. Clough coming on!

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Clough for Buxton, Vela RB?

[TANGODANCER]

Shouldn't be over surprised (except for the soft goal). This league is all much of a muchness and we're just a part of it. All down to how hard we're prepared to fight. Bottom line, we need two goal and keept them from scoring. We lost a forty five minute game so we'll have to win the next one. Everything else is immaterial. Part two...COME ON.........

[LeverEnd]

Back out. Still a chance here but major improvements needed. Clough on

[TANGODANCER]

And already Bury mentioned. Bollox to em. Clough replaces Buxton to kick off and......away we go.

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Back to the diamond; Trotter behind Henry/CTaylor with Clough behind Proctor/Ameobi

[TANGODANCER]

Can we do it....course we can.....They have the first dab and Morris blasts one over. Now they come again and send another over our bar. Hener, Clough, Vela......Clough Henry, Beevers and....they clear for a throw to us. Vela at right back and Henry central (says micman) Throw them and....some scores then Taylor and.....we get a corner?? Ameobi goes, they clear and sally, we get a throw. Mic man babbling about everything bu the game then we clear and...Proctor...sin't offsie as the ball had gone out for a throw. Henry hits one, Taylor, Clough....Vela, Henry and....Clough hits one and...it's a goal kick.

[TANGODANCER]

Step one, equalise, step two score one or more extra goals.

We get a let off for a handball, then they come at us. They are playing like we have tewn by the sound of it? Throw them and....Taylor clears for a corner to them. COME ON WHITES.......GET SORTED. VELA FEREE KICK, TAYLOR, HENRY, TROTTER, CLOUGH AND hENRY....TAYLOR AGAIN AND......we have a corner as mic man prattles about us losing our first game ( xxxx).

Ameobi, Taylor and......keeper saves as we get a corner. Henry and......some scores and.....and....Wheater can't get one on target. Goal kick them. They come, we clear, they clear for a throw and....we go again and.....Trotter sallies and....two Taylors and.....Henry hits one .....somewhere.

[TANGODANCER]

Trotter Vela, Wheater and.......and......Proctor gets pushed in the box.....Taylor tells Mr Kettle a thing ot two and gets a card for his trouble. Parky not amused again. Ameobi goes and....they clear and.....Wheater clears well. Proctor and....a corner us and......and......and....ohhhh, cleared off the line from a cracking Wheater header and......another corner after big pressure from us. And....Henry, cleared and.....they break and......Jackson crosses and it's a goal kick. Mic man is getting on my nerves keep prattling about us losing our unbeaten record. They come again and...Wheater clears. The homers make a sub....slowly.

[TANGODANCER]

The cheeky sods are bringing a striker....and Anderson replaces Taylor for us. Anderson gets a card after fourth official tell him to come on........and gets a booking from the ref.......?????

[TANGODANCER]

Henry, Clough and....ohhhhhhh wide.....

[TANGODANCER]

Now, now, now....lads, come on......get the first, we'll get the second.....Clough, Vela and.....Henry and.....in and.....we can't get in and......Henry, Proctor.........is offside.

[TKIZ!]

Claims that Anderson went onto the pitch too early after getting the nod from 4th official

[DJBlu]

I make that 3 cleared off the line.

Reckon this will be the first loss of the season.

Hopefully it won't be 1 of many.
