They were better, more aggressive and much more up for the game than we were. They started rattled but they simply were resilient. They proceeded about their gameplan after we've spent all our energy, mentally and physically in the first half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play through our midfield and chances will come. They didn't have to be brilliant, just solid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're only good if we're up against a team that underestimates us. This is what happens when you assemble a team of athletes whose identity is intensity but have no idea what to do if the opposition are also physically imposing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 209 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) Trying to think of something positive to take from today and there is one, minor, positive I think: Being beaten by SAFC is a shameful humiliation for us. An absolute embarrassment. A terrible indignity. Degrading in fact. Meanwhile SAFC fans will be as happy today as when we won the League Cup exactly a year ago. So the day we see beating SAFC as being like winning silverwear, or when we start behaving rationally when we get beat off them is when we need to start worrying. The horrific reaction to this defeat shows where the two clubs are at right now - beyond the disappointments of this season.

Yeah agree with that, this is likely as good as it ever gets for them hopefully. It’s fairly likely they finish above us now but that’s not going to bother me as much as losing today.

Moose Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 I don't know if it's just a case of me being a biased gravy stained jawdee but I think the 2nd half was more a case of us shiteing the nest and parting like the red sea for them than them running rings around us. We shrunk into a quivering mess and they smelt blood. But I'm not taking anything away from them, they done their job well and fully deserved the win Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don’t think they played us off the park. As I said though, fairly pointless discussion since we lost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not taking anything away from them, they done their job well and fully deserved the win The 2nd half was a shit show from the very first whistle. Ramsey aimlessly booting our kick off out for a goal kick to a backdrop of empty seats as people seemed to take forever to return after their HT pint set the tone. Still loads not back in their seats on 50 mins. The next 10/15 mins was pretty much played out in our half. We gave them a way back into the game and they went for it. Turned to my mate 5 mins before they equalised and said what was going to happen. Was so bloody obvious. Mackems weren't good. They didn't need to be. They had a gameplan of still being in the game at HT and then simply making the most of the opportunities that we would give them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were however definitely the better side second half, we bottled it, they smelled blood as someone said and the crowd started sensing the inevitability of what was going to happen.

Strip away the fact that it's derby and all the emotions that go with it and yesterday was a movie we've seen way too many times this season. Opponents coming to SJP know that we're going to come at them like a pack of hyenas from kick off but if they can weather the storm for the first 30 mins or so, we won't be able to sustain it and gaps will start appearing all over the pitch, then in the 2nd half we seldom have game changing quality coming off the bench to give us the impetus again. Teams know that they just need to stay within touching distance of us by half time and we'll inevitably create chances for them. We're ridiculously easy to play against.

Yesterday was just another case of rinse and repeat of an all too familiar story. Absolutely horrible game to watch when you're just sat there waiting for the inevitable. I actually left the Junction and went for my bus on 85 minutes so that I wouldn't see the winner that I knew was coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
