joeyt Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Presume it's been mentioned on previous pages or elsewhere but Rafa said in his post match interview that Colback has a fever and was sick this morning Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chopey Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Haven't seen the game back but thought Rotherham did really well first half to man mark Shelvey out of the game and squeezed high up the pitch. Their tactic of letting Lascelles play it out from the back worked pretty well as his distribution was pretty average. Delighted we got the win and had a comfortable second half though Totally agree with this, the fans were getting very frustrated with Lascelles poor passing and the fact he kept slowing the game down Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Blatant handball by Perez for his goal btw, very clearly elbows it in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was funny as fuck last 10 minutes watching him sweat on £140. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley17 Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Something minor that pleased me today was leaving 2 men upfield when defending a corner, hate to see all 11 back in the box Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 For what it's worth I think Rotherham did decent in the first half, they had a few chances of their own despite not being in control of the game. It wasn't until the 2nd half when they were 1-0 down when they fell apart when we were all over them. In the reverse fixture they gave a decent performance as well, so I wonder if their problem is more of a psychological one when they go a goal down rather than a lack of skill problem? Anyway fair play to their fans, ok Rotherham to Newcastle isn't the longest away journey but they brought a large crowd with them (one of the biggest so far at SJP this season I'd say) to a game that they are expected to get hammered in when they are on the verge of relegation to League 1, how many clubs would do that? They were in decent voice as well until their team decided to throw the towel in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Rotherham Sold out, huffed and puffed, but not quite enough. Hats off. Fans can be proud for their attitude and application, if nowt else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 We were poor defensively and the attack stuttered until we got in front...Murphy has been well worth signing because he has made an impact with his presence when he has been in the side ; holds the ball up well and some if his headed flicks are very good. The best thing about this game is the 3 points plus the improvement to our goal-diff which could well become vital at the end of the season. Brighton have been far better at winning games after being behind but they don't often score many goals. We need an injection of more pace and a more effective No 10 although Perez took his goal well. As long as we get results all is well...I am happy with that(the end justifies the means)but we are not great to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans can be proud for their attitude and application, if nowt else. What on earth are the words to that Rafa song? Highlight of the match btw, ridiculous bit of control by the Rotherham LB in the second half. Received a deserved round of applause from the whole crowd.

Greg Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 It was Taylor their left / right winger - he's a decent little player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 In fact I would happily have us look at bringing him in - would be a good back up wing option. Seems to have done alright in a pretty awful Rotherham side in his first season at this level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 One thing that really irritates me at SJP is how fucking slow our ball boys are. When we have teams coming and sitting back, trying to frustrate and slow the game down we need the ball returned to the field as quickly as possible. It just seems to take an absolute age to get the ball back into the field (if they even move to get it at all). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have them sitting behind the adboards nowadays, they seem to be such younger kids or what they teach them must be at fault. Or it's probably a mixture of all three. The indecisiveness or complete lack of reaction sometimes is very frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
