morpeth mag Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 It was a yellow card because the refs have been told to clamp down on any lunge tackles. He was just angry as he'd mis controlled it. If he hadn't got the ball cleanly he'd have been off. When we have everyone fit RB is the biggest weakness of the team. I wonder if he will try Ferguson at LB and switch Santon to the right? Makes offensive sense but as our success this season has been built on a tight defence and scoring the first goal I'm not sure Pards will go this far.

Tsunami Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Can't blame him for not making a challenge, can blame him for getting into a position where he could not make the challenge; he got caught in 2 minds and that was that. We still shouldn't have conceded the goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 He was in a lose-lose. If he bottles the challenge, he gets criticised for lack of effort etc. If he makes the challenge, he gets sent off and criticised for making the challenge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he bottles the challenge, he gets criticised for lack of effort etc. If he makes the challenge, he gets sent off and criticised for making the challenge. I'd rather he'd seen red to be honest. I don't think given time left, Brighton had the nous or bite to finish us off. As it was the midfield and right flank was left like an open door and a hard but aimless, shot ended up going in off a defender in the box, which is always more likely to happen if allowed respect like that. The above is moot anyway. He's shown consistently now that he is not good enough to a permenant fixure at RB at this level. Take away his athleticism and generally commendable professionalism and theres not much left to suppost his case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghandis Flip-Flop Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I think he is weak mentally when ever he makes a mistake his head drops massively. We saw this yesterday and the other example that sticks in my mind is Anfield. He made the free kick clanger and then he might as well not have been on the pitch as his head was gone after that incident, allowing that lot free reign down our right hand side.

AlanSkÃrare Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Goal was his fault yesterday. Can't cross, can't go past anyone and constantly backing off. We need better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Just been reading through his tweets. Nice to see him passing the buck for his error onto his team mates once again. Maybe if he started taking responsibility for his own mistakes he might actually improve as a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I hope everyone understands why I hate Simpson so much. He's a gutless, blame-shifting little cunt and I fucking resent seeing his name on the teamsheet. No good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone said to him he should have taken a foul for the team when he had the chance (he didn't even need to foul him tbh, just make a clean tackle) and he replied with "So did they not av a lot 2 do after that!

Lush Vlad Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Footballing ability and insults are similar then. Who uses 'egg' as a comeback :lol: The bloke is a poor player, I keep saying I'd happily keep him as back up, but I'm starting to think even that is pointless. If we fetched in a left back or right back in the summer, got a centre back in that could cover full back at a push, I would defo sell him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RR15 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Literally held both hands up as the brighton player shot passed him with ease to create their winning goal. He needs to stop calling people eggs, and creating apps that are £0.69, and focus more on becoming a professional footballer for a club paying him thousands PW (Which he spends on tattoo sleeves) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
