Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Pigott, the latter gives half a hope of a goal.
(not sure even the hope of reverse Jonah will get a goal from Pigott)

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
We’re a goal and man down with misfiring strikers . I think the game is over.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
The only thing I can say good about Pigott is that he’s working hard but to be honest he’s not good enough.
Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Sounds like a big improvement on last Sunday but ... goal down, man down and chances not being taken. All the ingredients for an incredible second half - maybe.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
While it's one goal you've always got a chance even from hoof and hope near the end. Can't afford a second goal though.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 3:53 pm We’re a goal and man down with misfiring strikers . I think the game is over.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Going to a 4 in the back has made us way more vulnerable. Happe was so poor for that goal, as well taken as it was. Backed off and off, invited the shot.
Decent stuff in attack, Moncur looked lively and we were much more willing to take a shot. But Cooper has stiffed us there. Really doubt we're getting back into it.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
That pressure we put them under yet still didn’t look like scoring. January is going to be a big month for us. Get these next transfers wrong and we’re down . If you can’t score, you can’t win

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
With only 10 men, we will have to be more direct, so will need Piggot on to try and hold up the ball.
I say try, as I do not think Piggot is good enough either, but we have to work with what we have got.
Forde is not a target man or can he hold the ball up.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
We're one nil down to a much bigger club that will probably get promoted. If you think that was a shambles, you obviously didn't go to Chesterfield or watch the Lincoln game.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
You are correct he backed off and backed off bad defending didn’t see the sending off from where I’m sitting they had a better view from the west stand.Mistadobalina wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 3:55 pm Going to a 4 in the back has made us way more vulnerable.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Their goal not too dissimilar to the one we conceded against Wigan. Oppo allowed all the f*cking time in the world without anyone seeing fit to close him down. Weak as f***.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
We're 17th in the goals scored table, perhaps the 7 teams below us, might need a striker more.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 3:58 pm That pressure we put them under yet still didn’t look like scoring.

Just have to hold faith there will be one scrappy moment where it's harder to miss than score.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 4:02 pmProblem is gshaw is we can’t score.gshaw wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 3:54 pmWhile it's one goal you've always got a chance even from hoof and hope near the end.

Re: Exiles thread - Derby (H)
Sending off has completely spoilt the game, very harsh sending off.
Ruel was doing well on left, Theo the same on right, and for once Moncs was looking as lively as I have seen him this season.
Route 1 needed now, and maybe a bit of luck with 2nd balls.
The problem is, Derby look dangerous going forward with ex Prem players in team & they could easily score 3 or 4 in 2nd half.
We look good until the final pass or cross and don’t look like scoring.
Tough 2nd half, keep it at 1-0 if we can until 75-80 mins, then who knows what can happen in last 10mins.
