Keep it 0-0 at ht and let Chris sort it

Why does he need to sort it at half time so often? Why doesn't he sort it from the off?

He needs to earn his salt.

That's when he earns his salt.

BBC stats suggest that we are doing OK. I wonder if we might be grateful for a draw come full time?

never look at stats......Stats made Reading look good

It's nothing CH is doing wrong IMO. The players just seem to need encouragement/a rocket every so often.

If he is not having to change anything tactically then it's just the players mentality that needs to change.

The next goal wins it!

I think we try and let teams run themselves in to the ground without expending too much energy ourselves which is why we often look best in the last quarter and solid but a bit shit first half. All part of CH's rather successful tactics.

HT 0-0 still optimistic for a win here

On the plus side, we're now 7 points ahead of Hudds

 

[ManOfSussex]

That was hard listening.

Embarrassing performance so far. Need much more in midfield and on the wings. March on for Murphy at 60 imo

Premier league we are having a laugh

Passing bricks again. Sometimes I pine for mid-table anonymity, when every Saturday afternoon didn't set the anxiety levels racing.

Key 45 minutes coming up. This game is looking like a banana skin at the moment. Our limited squad resources seem to mean that the players are tired and losing their competitive edge.

I make anyone look good.

 

[Tarpon]

This game looks so winnable but we are not at the races yet

 

[Seagull]

Delighted to see Rosenior on the team sheet. Hope he has a good game.

 

[nordicgod]

Well am here and wish I wasn't what a boring first half hopefully we can have a shot on goal 2nd half and even get a goal , can't be as turdigde as the first please

Do people at a match read NSC?

At half time, yes.

We're second best so far. They're playing the "let's press their defenders" game that we know works against us. We hoof ball out of defence, bypassing mid field entirely. AK is playing more time as inside right than on the wing, leaving Bruno to do what he can out wide right. At least Murphy is staying out wide. Stephens is, ummm, not playing well. Sidwell is though. Neither side really looked like scoring.

FFS come on Albion.
