    just got back

    Great performance, pure grit and determination from back to front, my ratings for what there worth Darryl 5.5 flapped horribly and almost cost us apart from that ok Francis 7.5 prob one of his best performances tonight Clarke 7 I still dont like him but was solid tonight...
  2. Way to go Tilly

    For once he's came out and had a go at the team. Blamed poor defending and also naming Hunts miss.I Think its about time he grew some balls and told it like it is, rather than we were unlucky or "he work his socks off". This group of players who are underachieving and looking average in an poor...
  3. My ratings

    Flavs - Not too much to do. A few easy saves, very good tip over the bar when 0-0 though. Good distribution too. 7 Hunt - Unlucky for their goal, it wasn't an own goal from my view, just a lucky deflection. Defended solidly didn't push on as much as he done recently. 6.5 Barrett/Clarke - The...

    Spikeys View and Ratings

    Carson - 4 - Nightmare for the first goal. Looked shaky all night but did one quality save in the second half. It will take him a long time to get over this. Peter Bonnetti? Richards - 5 - This guy is quality. However, didn't have his best game last night. Who did though? Campbell & the...

    Better Balance, here is something to debate

    Of course today was very frustrating to watch but i would like to debate how we have dropped the skipper for better balance in the side. What I saw today was McCormack and Bailey work there socks off in the centre of the park covering every inch of Roots Hall today, while Black & Gower offered...

    Dump

    Lowering the tone a bit here but it is an essential discussion topic IMO: To whom it may concern: Taking A Dump... I'm sure that upon reading this, you'll nod your head in agreement as you will all have experienced most, if not all of the scenarios listed. If you haven't you need more...
  9. if i was manager - the team for Saturday ?

    aha - Darryl was definately going to be starting until he did his back - all that blame for corners and stuff was always the back 4 - but this week I would have them lining up like this - Collis - (still hate the way he tapes his socks but ......) Francis (got a goal in the stiffs, Hunt...

    How many times will ...

    ... Tilly say the following phrases tonight! "Like i say" "To be fair" "Works his socks off" And im sure there are more to be added. VOTE NOW! Kev

    Steve Tilson on BBC Essex

    Just interviewed. Most interesting comment when asked how Collis played he said that is the best he's played so far and justifyied it by saying he claimed a lot of crosses, before only then going onto mention the good saves he made. Its very reassuring to hear our manager recognise the...
  12. Somerset Ex-TTB

    Thoughts on last night

    Just a few of my thoughts on last night as it was the first time I have seen the players this year. Collis - Only made one save, no chance with either goal, good distribution. Hunt / Wilson - Both had good games, defending well, and using the ball intelligently. Hunt linked up well with JCR...
  13. Quality is sadly missing from our Team = Disasterous Season

    I felt a bit sorry for Harold Today as I thought he worked his socks off and gave 100% which is all you can ask but the Crowd never got off his back the whole Game ,unfortunately it's plain to see that he is lacking quality and is definately not a Championship Class Striker .This is clearly...
  14. Match day preparation ...

    first thought this morning, remember to put the tickets in your pocket and will check them about 20 times during the day - cos of weather conditions put on extra thick socks - double up with England shirt and top - will have late lunch and make sure its a big bowl of pasta - clock watch at...

    My ratings from tonight

    flavs..7...Made at least one customary great reflex save. Only critsism would be his well documented reluctance to control the 6 yard box. Hammell...7...Fairly solid performance. His job is made more difficult by having to think for gower as well as himself. Hunt...6... Better performance from...
  16. Billy Paynter

    I watched Paynter in the reserves and I have to say that he was crap. Poor touch, can't shoot, he looks a non-league player at best. Why did we pay so much for him? Hull must be laughing their socks off. No doubt someone went to watch him play before an offer was made - or did they? How are...
  17. What's the worse Christmas present you got?!

    So come on then lets have it, and no socks! I'll start it off. A wash bag.

    Last Nights ratings

    never found one Anyway on with the ratings Flavs-9-Once again quality looked comfy in the air collecting the ball and made some important saves Hunt-7-Cleared up well, worked hard and got forward when needed also worked well with JCR Prior-6-Steady start, one misplaced header that could of...
  19. JCRJCR

    I presume you will be making a post very soon retracting your comments about Freddy and his effort for the team? He absolutely ran his socks off today and but for 2 outstanding saves would have had a hat trick

    Kightly

    How did Kightly play yesterday? Bet as he had a point to prove he must have worked his socks off!
