Andyben Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Ugbo and Poveda....not bad signings thank you Mr Chairman 10 Quote
KrolMong Posted February 9 Posted February 9 That was a lovely goal. Ugbo is good in the air, and that was a perfect ball by Johnson to drop it on top of a small full back. Quote
Andyben Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Just hope Röhl doesn't do his usual 'stick a third CB on' which usually costs us Quote

TheExile Posted February 9 Posted February 9 We look a lot more natural with Johnson playing. Birmingham looked to have adopted the same approach as Sunderlands early in the game but have looked more Rooneyish second half. First time we’ve seen Beadle showing what he can do also. Quote

Bob Petrie Posted February 9 Posted February 9 January transfer window paying off - solid performances from Ugbo, Poveda and Beadle. 2 Quote
NomadOwl Posted February 9 Posted February 9 19 points off the play-offs. It’s on. All seriousness though I couldn’t bring myself to look at the table past few weeks. Didn’t actually realise the gap to the sides above the bottom 4 had shrunk so much. I honestly thought we were on an island of four for survival. (probably should’ve fucking looked would’ve made me less of a miserable sod the past week) 6 points off 19th now. That’s doable Yeah others have games in hand, shit squad blah blah all that. But we had to win that and we did. We can do this. 1 Quote

Jim Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Really pleased for Beadle tonight. Made some crucial saves and that clean sheet does him a world of good. 4 Quote
Kiwi Owl Posted February 9 Posted February 9 It was a deserved victory in the end. Came out wanting that second goal instead of sitting back like last season. Got it and then controlled the game till the end. Helped by Birmingham giving up when we made it 2-0. 1 Quote
owl4ever1867 Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Well played tonight boys, impressive result, very hard fought. Let's hope the results go our way tomorrow. 1 Quote

But the Chairman has chosen all the January signings, so they can’t be any good, right?! Good performances by the majority of players, but I thought Gassama wasn’t as good as he has been and left MJ too exposed, which was how they got in quite a bit in the 1st half. Fair dos to Beadle much more confident looking tonight. I like the look of Poveda but he’s clearly lacking some fitness, but he could definitely be an asset once we get him fully fit. I feel for Ugbo not to get MoM, we don’t get many players scoring 2 in a game these days, so not to get MoM. Quote

Ugbo was good and made some good runs and took up some good positions, he was unlucky not to get 3 goals. The tacticians will know if it’s better to have Ugbo as the centre forward instead of playing down the right of a 3 but maybe. I’d have Poveda playing behind Ugbo and then either Musaba or Gassam as the other striker because of their pace and trickery. Mussaba wasn’t on long but was better of the two tonight. My team for the Foxes would be Beadle Pol Bernard Famewo Johnson Vaulks Diaby Bannan Poveda Ugbo Mussaba Quote

Laceups Posted February 10 Posted February 10 Great win. Fuck the rest of the shite surrounding it. 3 points is all we needed tonight. 3 Quote
Lee Posted February 10 Posted February 10 The Nil conceded is a huge confidence boost. After a being right against it first 15 the goal was at the right time and so well worked. We don't help ourselves with blind passes that are no where near on the half turn, in our own half from central positions to wide areas, but TBF that was more first half and it certainly seems that we benefitted from a good HT team talk. BC wasn't in the game really and I felt for him, almost nothing to feet, but having said that I'm not sure he's a player to take it to feet with back to goal. We worked the wide areas well and IP looks a good signing as does Ugbo. There's still a gap but as has been said tonight was must win and we did, without conceding. The run in throws up more good fixtures than bad. We likely need 22-25 points to stay up from 15 games, not undoable. All challenge yes, but it's all about momentum. Today was the start. UTO 3 Quote
owl71 Posted February 10 Posted February 10 The first half was poor, despite going in 1-0 up. We just couldn’t keep the ball and gain any control in midfield, and we looked nervous at the back, though still a threat in good moments. Second half was a bit more solid, but still with good moments. Overall fuck it, we just needed the three points. Beadle never put a foot wrong. Poveda looks a player. Bernard easily the most consistently impressive of the Summer signings. 1 Quote
OwlMR Posted February 10 Posted February 10 (edited) 1 hour ago, Snap said: Yep, anti Wednesday. How can any cxxx hold them posters up immediately prior to a game. Did you hold one up? Fuckin wankers. Because they want change, because the owner of the club is taking in backwards. I wasn't there but I would have. I don't want to be a yoyo team between the championship and league one. Want to see us progress. Which won't happen while ever he's still here. Sooner he's gone the better, at least more and more seem to be thinking the same. Anti Wednesday because they want better and change, pull the other one. Edited February 10 by OwlMR Quote
