Wonder what Atkinson has done to be dropped, thought he was quite good the last month.

Glad Ramy gets his chance, and in midfield no less.

Seems he is being used as an impact sub. But I agree. Guessing we will play a back 3 and Galloway was chosen above Atkinson on the left.

The surprise would be the draw

Draw is now the most likely outcome.

After 2 very defensive outings - tonight is to make a statement. Keep a clean sheet and win the game away. Does not have to be convincing or beautiful, but those will best embody what we have been 'working towards'.

A platform for future success. I feel this game is best watched as seeing how much the players want this. Can they all put in another 20% and get over the line. Should be an interesting game!

If we win we win, if we lose we lose. 

... Yeah how was that? 

[haz]

Hendry already giving out orders

[mus-28]

Bouzanis has looked solid while Glover was away,now Glover is back I'm expecting him to give away a penalty or have a monumental brain fart that costs us a goal.

Nothing new, did the same in the first 5 minute on the pitch last week 

[haz]

What a fucking beta free kick

[Afif Adam]

1 - 0 Adelaide

[haz]

Why did we let the hobo score?

[mus-28]

Fat Ross isn't up to much nowadays, can we hire him as our free kick coach?

[haz]

Ugh, I took Noone out for Susaeta in fantasy

[mus-28]

Scotty G with more attacking output in 16 minutes than Jamo in 3 seasons.

We should sign Bobby burns for left back 

[Shahanga]

No one made up for the stuff up

[Afif Adam]

TF was Delbridge thinking there 

[haz]

None of this long ball play suits Jmac

[Mr MO]

Najjarine very lively, Susaeta all over pitch to collect ball. 
 

[Afif Adam]

Yo Hendry is pre decent ...sign him up after the loan ends 

[haz]

Ugh

[belaguttman]

What is Bouzanis doing in the team? Terrible positioning

[Afif Adam]

Concede a goal from a corner again ffs 

 

2 - 1 Adelaide 

[Mr MO]

2 corners, 2 goals conceded, 2 times Noone involved.

That's not Bouzanis fault, he can't be covering a back post as well as middle of goal 

I have more questions why Noone just wandered off and left halloran alone

[JMSTEP123]

Fuck we're shit.

[haz]

Dean a statue

Bouzanis

[fensaddler]

There's no papering over this. This is crap. 

[Afif Adam]

Aight that's fked all 3 goals from corners, absolute shithouse ...fix it

[mus-28]

Does every useless cunt expect Hendry to win every header? we're so fucking spineless when we have to attack a ball in the air.

[Bannon]

[Harrison]

Three guys over 6’2 and we’ve conceded from three corners. 

You can’t make this stuff up. 

[moops]

Despite the goal Noone looks below par tonight, really liking Susaeta and Najjarine central, Berenguer being Berenguer.

[neio]

We miss Cabrera, when he played we got it out it to his feet and he ran at opposition and created gaps for maclaren 

Now we just pump long balls hoping that the defenders stuff up like western United did against us

I’m looking at further back in the play, I see Craig Noone loosing 6 out 10 balls or he’s rolling on the floor. We let Adelaide get all these corners.

Is Berenguer playing?

Not sure I like anything very much about our selection or formation. It's not working.
