Our defence what is wrong ?

Exactly where is it falling apart ? 7 goals conceded in two games against Peterborough and Barnsley !! :o in my opinion it should be Darcy and A another. Be it Hudson Gerrard or Taylor . Views please !!

i wouldnt argue with what started today.Dont really think it was individual but more collective mistakes which sometimes happens when you are a few goals up.Marshalls reluctance to come for crosses concerns me and the lack of vocal comunication between the defenders also needs improving.When Turner has settled in i would make him capt and maybe bring in Blake alongside him if things dont improve. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

why is no one looking to blame Turner defence was doing ok until he came in and now conceded 9 in 3 games Also heard from fans 2 goals today came from Hudson side but no mention it was also Kev!s side as well

Our defence was ok until Turner came in... What Feckin team have you been watching?? our defence has leaked soft goals for at least the past few seasons... Centre Halves are not good enough too slow, liable to dropping a bollock.. for me has to be Darcy and one other...!! and i'd prefer that other to be Turner IMO...!! :ayatollah:

To be honest i thought both Hudson and Turner played well today but has a team we switched off for 10 to 15 minutes and conceded two soft goals. In particular their second goal looked to me like Whitts could have cleared off the line but thought it was going wide Agree that Marshall could have been more commanding but over all i think he's a decent keeper.

Despite conceding 3 goals i would prefer to concetrate on the positives and some of our football today was sublime could and maybe should have had 7 goals thought Cowie was MOM never stopped running, closing down and well taken goal also Joe Mason is very good but being so young could be really special The one thing you couldn't fault today was entertainment and at the end of the day what would you prefer a 5 - 3 win or a 2 - 0 win Same points and same goal difference i know what i would prefer :old: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
