Houdini Logic Posted 11 March 2011 Posted 11 March 2011 From the East stand on Tuesday, the third goal looked like it went through his hands. None of us even thought it had took a deflection. Definitely - I thought it went through his hands and then through his legs. Funny how it all works
MikeyT Posted 12 March 2011 Posted 12 March 2011 From the East stand on Tuesday, the third goal looked like it went through his hands. None of us even thought it had took a deflection. Same here, i was in the Kop about 12 rows up directly behind the goal and from where i was, couldn't see a deflection at all. Just looked like Ricardo had, had a mare of a moment.
Foxhateram Posted 12 March 2011 Posted 12 March 2011 I don't want to get behind Ricardo, he is a short arse and doesn't have the best looking bum at all. Weale on the over hand! Cor! I am sure AOWW will back me up on this one!

I am sure AOWW will back me up on this one! I don't ogle our players' arses. Although Weale's does take some beating, I must admit.
MikeyT Posted 12 March 2011 Posted 12 March 2011 He's probably glad to be playing in an away game today, away from sections of our home support booing and moaning at him.
Foxhateram Posted 12 March 2011 Posted 12 March 2011 I don't ogle our players' arses. Although Weale's does take some beating, I must admit. Yes darling, what ever you say
blue army 1988 Posted 12 March 2011 Posted 12 March 2011 Yeah lets all get behind Ricardo. Then when he lets one in we will all be on the line to get it out
Mack Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 Another goal where he was at least partly to blame. Came flapped, got nothing, left an open net. How much longer must we put up with this clown? Shocking half clearance punch in the first half also which was fortunately kicked straight back at him.

I'm not a 'bum boy' or whatever many will call it but there seems to have been about 2 people so far that have acknowledged the god awful defending that's just as much to blame, if not more so as it is their school boy play which is costing us goals week in week out. I suppose haters gon' hate.
somebum Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 To be fair, no amount of encouragement can make him a better goalie. He aint good enough, simple as.
Jay Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 it looked to me as if he came for the ball and Bamba took the ball away from him and headed it to the opposition
Fox92 Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 Communication error. Bamba should be looking to head the ball high, not head a flat cross. In fact, Ricardo would have punched it further. Why do people just keep blaming Ricardo? He did nothing wrong today. If he wouldn't have come and Nugent would have scored, everyone would still be blaming him. Weale is no better. Good teams have good goalkeeepers - QPR (Kenny), Nottingham Forest (Camp), Cardiff (Marhsall) etc. We haven't got one.
somebum Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 From what I have seen of Weale, he is a terrible keeper.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 How people can say Weale is a terrible keeper is a joke. You dont make the Playoffs conceding less than a goal a game on average with a terrible keeper. He isnt in the top few in the league, but is certainly better than a lot of others in the division.

Behave! You can't go around saying players are alright!
FanofFilbert Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 Listening to the Post- Match interveiw on foxes player with Bruma, and he can barley mask his contempt for ricardo yesterday, saying as a defence there conceding cheap goals due to a lack off communication. In response to what they can do to stop these goals he says Communication from ricardo if he is coming to collect it he needs to let the defence know.

Good teams have good goalkeeepers - QPR (Kenny), Nottingham Forest (Camp), Cardiff (Marhsall) etc. We haven't got one. Good post! Those blaming Ricardo really should take a closer look at the defending taking place in front of him. Firstly, Pompey's goal all came about because Bamba held onto the ball too long in our own half giving possession away cheaply which lead to the throw in which set up the goal. Furthermore, the defending in the second half was abysmal. How Pompey didn't score a second from that simple tap-in is beyond me! Both Bamba and Bruma were non existent. In my opinion, our attacking players need to shoulder some of the blame too. They squandered some very simple chances and on another day could quite easily have scored five. Admittedly Ricardo doesn't fill me with confidence, but in all fairness neither does Weale. I really don't get all this Ricardo hating, as he hasn't yet made any clear mistakes which detrimentally cost us a game.
Thracian Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 Our record of results since he's been in goal will doubtless speak for itself. Some of our fans recognise that he's not good enough and others clearly don't bother to look, or blindly believe in whatever Sven puts in front of them. Which is anyone but Weale when he gets the chance. How Kirkland ever got selected, given his blatant lack of fitness to perform properly, I will never know. And now we have another bloke who is totally unconvincing to me, and way below the level of goalkeeper we'll need to be successful. Trouble is, even if Sven finally saw the light, I wonder if Weale would be sharp enough to return and whether he'd be on a hiding to nothing whatever happened. Sven has created a weak situation out of nothing, a mistake which, though not the only one, has badly, perhaps fatally, affected our drive for promotion this season.
Webbo Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 If a player pulls on the blue and white then they should be supported. Riccardo wears a green jersey.

You dont make the Playoffs conceding less than a goal a game on average with a terrible keeper. He isnt in the top few in the league, but is certainly better than a lot of others in the division. I think Weale's a good solid keeper. Ive said this before Ricardo got here. Thing is, I don't particularly rate Ricardo but booing him and blaming him for things that aren't entirely his fault is terrible from home support. How many did the Yak put wide/over? How many of Gally's crosses were woeful? How many times did Vassell skin his man then pass it allllllllll the way back to Naughton?

I really don't get all this Ricardo hating, as he hasn't yet made any clear mistakes which detrimentally cost us a game. Many people, myself included, are not denying the part Bamba/Bruma played in the decisive cock-up but the goalkeeper should rule the penalty box with authority and yesterday was just the latest example of that not happening. The fact that others were involved in the mistake doesn't make it any less of a mistake by Ricardo. Wasn't it the last home game he was double punching a ball he should have caught, something he repeated less dramatically yesterday. Basically he dominates nothing in the air and opponents are going to play on that as Portsmouth did. Result, 1-0 to them. How much more emphaticly do you need a point to be rammed home?

He isnt in the top few in the league, but is certainly better than a lot of others in the division. Didn't Pearson pack the defence with players.... Before Weale was gk in a few good results I only heard: We need a goalkeeper, Weale is bad but not as bad as Logan...... Quite funny actually.

Stir things up and let people through. We have had some bad results when Bruma played and I haven't seen any mistake from Ricardo. Can someone with footage analyse Brumas actions when we concede. It can be lack of communication between Ricardo and him but I think this is affecting on Bamba also. Just a theory though so without any proper analysing it's just bullshit like the rest of the moaning, fickle fans.
Jay Posted 20 March 2011 Posted 20 March 2011 the back five is a unit that needs to work with each other and understand how they all play, I can't remember the last time we played two games in a row with the same back 5? it's chop and change all the time Bamba has played left and right CB, Mee has played LB and CB, Berner has played LB, PVA also Vitor was probably man of the match at Scunny yet was dropped yesterday all within the space of about 5-6 games Part of the reason for success last year was that week in week out if fit it was the same players in the same position
