This is terrible

Tue Mar 11, 2025 8:18 pm

The first half an hour of this game has been awful.

We look way off it and the players don't seem to know what they're doing.

Something needs to change soon or we're losing this game.

Probably the worst we've been all season and against a very poor Luton team.

I think we have the players, they're just not cohesive enough, which is down to the coach. Warnock would save us from here

Pathetic, shameful. Headless chickens. Riza is bottling this.

Only one team going to score and it's not us! Rambo far to deep to be effective Colwill still doesn't know when to pass ..... can't be as bad 2nd half can it? :o

Who told them they have all week on the ball? There's zero urgency, one shot & one touch in their area compared to 12 for them says it all.

Robertson definitely needs to come off, I'm a big fan of him but he's been awful tonight.

Really, really poor first half.

We are sat back as per usual inviting pressure. We are at home to a team who are dire on the road.

I’m not sure what has happened to Robertson but he is having a terrible game.

Ramsey sitting very deep, most of our team sat in our own half.

No one near Salech when he’s trying to hold the ball up.

Alves having a decent game but that’s about it.

This is so bad until the 40th minute we had one touch in Luton’s penalty area

Robertson doesn't seem to be the same player he was before his injury which is sad as he was our best player for a while need to bring Ashford on and inject some speed in to our attacks

We need to attack 1st ! No coordination going fo Colwill couple times had opportunity to set player away but either held on to ball or went wrong way...... it looks as if riza is playing percentage football inside our own half? As you say need bit pace but that's OK if playing attacking football at moment that is just a fantasy in Riza’s mind.

Wow this is really poor.
The players are clearly in a comfort zone.
They should be bollocked and sent straight back out

yes that's my issue we are so slow moving forward we need to move through the phases a lot faster get balls in behind there full backs and Ashford and Alves to get in behind and get balls into salech it's all to slow and ponderous at the moment

We are so slow and we can't string more than a few passes together.

Luton are direct, but their front 2 are better than our centre backs.

Chambers isn't mopping anything up, he needs Mannsverk alongside him.

I agree Robertson has been terrible. He needs to come off for Mannsverk.

Until we get some control of the game with Mannsverk helping Chambers win the midfield battle, the game will continue to be disjointed.

Salech also looks isolated with no pace running off him. Ashford and Robinson need to come on if things don't improve by 55 minutes.

I don't care what other players come off along with Robertson for Mannsverk, Ashford and Robinson to come on. The whole team have been terrible.
