AshtonGreat Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Odd that the official site stats give us one shot on target. I can remember at least two goalline saves, JET's free kick, Smith's recent header... JET's free kick? That was a pass back wasn't it?

CiderHider Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) Great performance, we do have some top quality players, I was amazed actually how well we played against a Prem side pushing for Europe, we tore them apart in the first half, just lacked that quality in the final 3rd. omg! Reid got MOM? omg, spivs everywhere!

cityexile Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Game of few chances really. Won the first half, pretty equal the second. Played really well, and trying to convince myself this might be better than a replay. Really good effort. Deserved the draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickolas Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Not bad. Lost to a handball on the line 1st half by Carroll and a handball by Carroll leading to their goal.

Guest Whooooossshhhh Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 The good thing is (imo) the squad won't let this affect their focus on League 1. By rights, we should have been well beaten by the Prem side, home advantage or not. I firmly believe that today's result is fairly low on their radar as a loss, but will be used to reaffirm to the players how well placed the hard work has put them in the race to get out of this godforsaken division. I'm feeling positive that this will just push BCFC onwards and upwards. Errrr.......... that's all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CotswoldRed Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) Perfect result. Great showing. Better team on the day imo. No more FA Cup fixtures.

cityexile Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 We prob had that luck at scunny last week. Maybe. Restricted them to a few chances, ours mainly in the air. Other than maybe the Bryan one, noting really to feet in their box, which was maybe not a surprise. Let's not forget they paid us the compliment of putting out their strongest eleven. Really good effort, not much really at all between the teams, and just unlucky on the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it wasn't another day I suppose Yeah. The first one probably was, but would have been a HUGE call, and seeing as after countless slow motion replays it's still not 100% there's no way you could give it as a ref. Second one just wasn't a handball. Quite right though, it wasn't another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanatopia Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Thought we controlled the game for much of it especially the first half. Freeman was a menace and Smith, Williams and Little played very well. Thought Smith could have done a little better.. he does not have the pace and JET was not at his best but cannot really fault any of them for effort. Happy days really.. we could storm through the Championship next season with a few key additions. Bright prospects all round. Well done City.

cityexile Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) JET had one of those days where he put in a shift, but was probably one of our least influential players. Would have like to see Agard come on earlier, as we were missing pace in the box. Overall, heads held high, and more than one player showed they will be very comfortable at a higher level.

Dan Robin Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) We deserved more...but when your team plays with pride, passion and quality...there's no space for regrets, but only for claps. An oustanding performance in the first half, and a good one in the second period. Matt Smith was a real giant, but unfortunately he didn't find the net; Freeman, in the first half was classy, JET wasn't too inspired but was very useful from a tactical point of view, Korey Smith was everywhere, and the defense looked always solid. Well done, Robins! Edited January 25, 2015 by Dan Robin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest normannomates Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Sakho was genuinely injured..back injury. Missed a fair few games before the Africa cup of nations.. He missed the Everton replay and two league games during the African cup. I'm sure the club must have checked with powers that be regarding the position if he was fit again while the competition is still on..but there again we have history for cock ups..so who knows! Some have commented on here on whether it was WHU being a good side playing in second gear today...or are we just a poor side? Been interesting reading on here, of opposition views...well,its a running argument at ours regarding Nolan and Noble playing in the same side. Fat Sam gets loads of grief regarding being blind where he is concerned, his favourite son so to speak. Downing gets pushed out of his central creative role, and is not the same player. Sakho and Valencia together is when we are at our best, today you put us under constant pressure and didn't allow us to create much. Defensively we were excellent in the main, although song was poor today. Almalfitano made a lot of difference when he came on, and of course sakho. Been an amazing find. Winston Reid was our best player...but he won't be with us much longer. I would have given MOM to Luke Freeman personally. Like him a lot.

I genuinely didn't know Downing was playing and even now, I'm not sure where he was playing. The only players who stood out for me were Nolan (because of his constant niggly nasty fouls) and Carroll (because he looks like a girl). Valencia and Song started well but seemed to disappear. I applaud your fans though. They took a vow of silence after leaving the M25 environs, and boy, did they honour it. Your team did a professional job though and good luck for Round 5.
