ALM round 20 CCM v WSW

Why wouldn't you sub the keeper at half time?

I was actually being sarcastic about the Manager's post match speech which will doubtless say we weren't good enough today we actually wanted to win "but we'll take the positives". No mention of course of the Manager dropping the first choice goalkeeper for a red card he didn't even deserve and watching the replacement keeper implode.

Rest of the team weren't much better either.

You are normally brighter than this. The 1st choice keeper was actually the 2nd choice keeper. You can't reward constant bad performance or what message does this send to the squad. Pav had to be given a second chance. He had a Barry and now we know DPC is the better option regardless of any errors.

What best ones?

Yes and you get the sound of one hand clapping!

Came back early from Japan for that shitshow. Words cannot describe how angry I am. Supposed to still be on the slopes at Hakuba right now.

Yeah. You didn’t deserve that. 😔

You did well, honestly. That full time score was mumbled out in such a manner it actually made me chuckle.

Sorry that’s how it played out though 😣

Terrible game.

Mauragis was better than normal.
Paull continues to develop.
Storm did OK.
Kuol was a handful and got stitched up.

They are the only positives from tonight.

That Meatloaf Ref really is a muppet.

They suck

This performance, like Gummy Sharks except for Dokka.

Plastic franchise financed by a Trump supporter? Victory for me

the pitch invaders who hit our ex (& currant socceroos) keeper with a metal bucket?.

Watching the highlights of the other games, the difference so often came down to competent goalkeeping and good saves.

Sail, Langerak etc each made game saving saves that got crucial points and was the difference.

I'll die on that hill, games are won from competent keepers. We f**ked it royally this year investing in kids for a gamble that may pay off in 5 years time, it's too crucial a position and there are too few games to be throwing valuable ALeague minutes at these guys.

Charlesworth is a clever mofo, this season is a write off and he can blame it all on Dick leaving. He knows he doesn't need to put money in because he has a scapegoat

. clever? really?

. of the ~5% of fans that know and somewhat understand what has gone on with the staff and funding - i reckon you'd have a hard time convincing them

. as for the rest of the fan base - they will simply be less interested in buying the product that he has for sale ... same goes for any 'potential' 'investors'

. i'd hardly call that clever - certainly not from an ongoing business POV ... but i'm not going to argue the mofo part

I think you misunderstood what I meant by clever...
