Pivotal moments of the season.

Recommended Posts

Corroborate nicely to make him a scapegoat for morons like you.

Ricardo 9 Conceded in 8 games (1.125 goals per game) 1 maybe 2 mistakes out of these 8. Punching instead of catching isn't a mistake!

Weale 7 Conceded in 4 games since his return (1.75 goals per game) 3 mistakes minimum so far! and Oakley saved him from another one on Saturday after his clueless postioning for Harte's free kick!

Errrrr........what you got for me now?

I might not agree with what you are saying, but I wouldn't stoop to your level and start throwing around pointless insults.

I agree Weale is also not the solution, but he is the better of the two evils.

Cardiff away.

We'd won like 8 out of 9 or something, were right behind the play offs, a win at Cardiff would have put us in the top 6 and only a win or so off automatic. We were totally shit, lethargic and by all accounts clueless, and lost. The run of results since then show how big a game that was. If we'd won there, momentum with us going into Cov & QPR, we'd be looking at 2nd spot now, not 12th.

Ahh well, onwards and upwards, still a chance (admittedly a very small one).

agreed defo pivitol moment, although you could argue every slightly tough away game we have just folded, soft underbelly all season sadly. Lets hope that changes against the red scum on friday!!!! Come on you Foxes :scarf:

Hardly pointless when your blaming one man for our season going to shit!

I wish people would use their head like this and stop being so ****ing deluded. I've seen nothing to suggest Ricardo is worse than Weale and plenty to suggest Weale is a liability.

Having a bid turned down for Ashley Williams before the transfer window shut.

That, and Curtis Davies u-turn... although he'd been far from rock-solid for us, he has a bit of experience that we've obviously missed

Pointless, comparing crap like that unless the defenders playing in front of the keeper are the same and you're playing against the same team and the games follow the same pattern. Although we still shipped goals with Mee in the team, we had a bit of 'steel' that was lacking for the 3 shipped against Reading, the ridiculous 'stats' could look very different.

Everyone knows we need a new keeper neither a good enough for a top 6 side, perhaps Weale is good enough for the bench... I'm not sure Ricardo would be happy on the bench in a foreign country

also skimming this, suprised to find little or nothing regarding Mr P. Sousa. Being bent over against Pmouth away and having goals disallowed against Reading were hard to take.

(and flogging Wayne Brown, if the summer counts as this season)

Fryatt's red card against Norwich was pretty important, we looked like we could go on and get something from that game, we didn't, Sousa was sacked and Fryatt was suspended for Sven's introduction. The S****horpe game under Chris P was also part of that as it got the feel good factor back and then obviously the trip to Cardiff (When we were something like 7 points ahead of Reading) was what sparked the awful run. Still we should come back stronger next year :scarf:

That had to be done really. And I think it might have even been agreed before Sousa cvam in. But we never replaced him, that was a big mistake.

I am truely shocked. I've just skim read all the posts and not one was on about the fact we sold Matty Fryatt.

Well done people. :thumbup:

Well done :appl:

I assume you are a lover of the aforementioned striker.

It seems to me that Fryatt's success over at Hull has been slightly exagerrated to some extent. He is their primary penalty taker. Now I'm not knocking that he has actually scored his penalties put before him. Well done to him. But he has scored 9 goals since his move to Hull. Does anyone care to analyse how many of those goals have penos and not in open play?

Very right about penalties.

People outside the club always think a player is good because of the amount of goals he has scored, they neevr see the bigger picture and relaise how many were penalties. And how many one on ones has he missed ?! I'd like to know that.

Just like outside our club people probably think Gallagher is great because they see all his goals on the FL show, or see that he has scored a quite a few despite being in a midfield/wing position. They dont realise that he cant finish the easier chances, cant tackle, cant head and isnt as good as he thinks he is.

Taarabt for QPR has scored a lot, quite a few of them have been from the spot.

Gallagher one-on-one in the Pompey game at home was surely a pivotal moment. As was Bamba's inexplicable miss against Coventry.

Whilst i agree with most of these points - i always think it's easy to look back at draws that should have been wins or losses that should have been draws etc

But the fact is there is also many other games that "should" have got fewer points from - Bristol City, Sheffield Utd, Leeds on boxing day (we were rubbish all day - but were lucky to have a 5 minute period when we scored 2 goals)

You can say that we should have more points from these sorts of games (Cov, QPR, Borough etc,) but you could look at every team and give them 5-10 more points that they "should" have - so doesn't it all equal out?

Agree with this.

We said it last season, 'If we didn't drop points here and there, we'd be candidates for automatic promotion.'

Teams have their ups and downs throughout a season. Despite our league position, it seems we've had more than our fair share of downs this season.

So It looks like we may miss out on the playoffs. It so frustrating when you think back about things that have gone wrong. Sousa is an obvious one but since Sven has been here I think there has been a few things that have cost us.

Inconsistency is #1

2. Throwing away that lead v 'Boro

3. King having several good goals dissallowed at the start of the season.

4. Getting 2 goals back v Watford, then throwing it away.

5. Last minute defeat to QPR.

6. Last minute v Preston

6. Failure to beat Cov, a game which we had loads of chances.

7. Ipswich away going ahead.

8. A selection of shyte performances mainly away, against Millwall, Burnley, Watford, Reading, Pompey, Ipswich etc.

Im clinging on to that little bit of hope, but we don't really deserve to go up IMO. Perhaps a mongish post, but with all the 'negativity' posts/threads going about, I can't blame these people because this season has been very dissapointing at times.

I'll still be there at the games getting behind the lads. On the optimist side, If you'd have offered me the current position after 9 games id have snapped your hand off.

For me, the pivotal moment was when Sven, having done so well with a settled side, bizarrely changed it (ie. added Ricardo and Bruma) and we have looked unsettled since

He started the next game against Barnsley, Ricardo's first game was against Derby.
