thats a typical performance from a team who thought all they had to do is show up, you can see the reasons why the fringe players aren't in the squad

What, all 4 of them? A Chelsea player, Wagstaff (who usually plays his part) Cunningham (Usually very reliable when called upon) & JET (He's contributed well when called on this season) 

 

We just for whatever reason, didn't get going. You just can't blame the fringe players...

Officially done with radio bristol constantly supporting the other team. We score and all we get from Adam baker and whatever his name is with him say poor Telford, then get all excited when they nearly score straight after.

 

Screecher Hoskin seems to favour Rovers, no idea what AB's excuse is.

i'm not saying its the fringe players fault but you can see why they aren't in the squad, i actually said its a performance of a team who thought all they had to do was turn up

Even better if we had to finish the game with 10 men, as some are saying.

That seems to me they kept going and got the reward

 

Certainly did, Kane off before added time and the winner.

 

Have to say, Telford 'battled' very effectively.

But they ARE all in our league match day squad. What the hell are you talking about?

when was the last time jet and wagstaff start a league game? they need to do more if they want to start, infact i'd be more then happy if they left and we bring in players that are actually going to challenge for a first team spot rather then players who don't take the chances given to them

Changing your initial argument now then?

 

Previously you were saying "you can see why they aren't in the squad" and now it's "when was the last time they started a league game?" 

 

Sounds like around 10 of our team bar Fielding were playing well below par today, yet it HAS to be JET's fault doesn't it?  :facepalm:

Say, for instance, we drew Liverpool away how do tickets work? Being at university i no longer have a season ticket. Does it basically mean i have no chance?

 

I would have thought that, if we were away, there'd be every chance. At home would be the problem.

Which City players ARE playing well then?

Not the point Nog. He has been anonymous for virtually all of 2014. Had a great start to last season and never kept it going into 2nd half of last season. All this 'he might do something' is wishful thinking now. He clearly doesnt have the application to use his talent adequately.

We look so much better without him now its clear he needs to leave. SL saying players out to make way for new ones. JET is one for me to be offski, asap.

Think you may be right. JET out, Doyle in.

I went down today, Todd did ok Waggy was decent first half and our back line wasn't really troubled. Freeman didmore in 20 seconds after coming on than JET did in the entire time he was on im normally a fan of JETs but today he was truly woeful if that's the level of performance he is gonna show then he can **** off now

It was Telford's cup final ,they gave it all and lost .

Onto the next match .

Our "fringe" players came through without being brilliant but it needs matches to get up to match speed.

Pack was slaughtered for his performance against Preston and against Posh like a world beater .

Fringe players:

Kane. - Very good. Did everything required of him. Not sure we'll see him again, if that's a dislocated shoulder.

Waggy - worked hard. Had his moments.

Cunningham - not awful, but nothing that makes you think he should start.

JET - your taxi is due in January, Mr Emmanuel-Thomas.

I'll go a bit against what everyone says about JET - he actually set-up pretty much all of our chances first half with good passes or beating a man.

 

People get annoyed when he has the ball kicked hard against him and can't control it - totally unfair. I actually feel pretty sorry him - he is never going to work hard but he will deliver goals and assists at this level and possibly even the one above. He will never change in terms of chasing down etc yet people seem to expect him to.

 

He was actually better than quite a few players today yet haven't much criticism of them. Williams had a shocker!

no I get annoyed when he gives the ball away repeatedly slows it down to walking pace and refuses too get into the box for a cross

The player you describe sounds great in team that can have 10 players doing the work of 11 for 90 minutes but this team appears to be built on 11 players putting in a full shift, especially in this division, perhaps JET would be better in a higher division.

JET was poor today. Contributed very little to the game. Cunningham is now so far behind Joe B that I can't see him ever keeping Joe out of the team and Williams is so much more accomplished with Joe in front of him.

 

Pack has done ok, but it shows how much we miss the combination of Korey Smith and Wade Elliot. The midfield today seemed very slow to get things moving.

 

They offered very little, though Fielding had to make a couple of good saves, as did their keeper. We pinged the ball in to the box repeatedly without anyone getting a good final touch.

 

Never mind when we knock out a prem team in the next round this will be forgotten ;)

Possibly right.

 

Thing is JET gets slated by the crowd for something wrong - another City will do the same and people will say unlucky etc. Just feel a bit sorry for him simply because he isn't the kind of player who will work hard but is capable of doing something that a player who works hard can't do.

of course but league 1 is not usually the place for this type of player.

The trouble is he is nothing like the player we saw last year. If his tricks don't work then he has very little to offer, ok, maybe a few nice layoffs, but we need much more than that from him. Also he seems to have lost his shooting boots, his efforts today were almost embarrassing. He was too much of a passenger today, unfortunately.
