Bianca commentating for Sky at Orient, so at least the commentary will be good - knows her football, that lass.

She sure does, I'm watching it on mute 😍😍

Crewe 0-1 up at Bramall Lane :(

He looks overweight, is too slow and basically slows the rest rest of the play down as he only gives backwards or sideways passes and so we look too static and so invariably invite pressure. He certainly isn't a winger, and I would question the logic of playing him as a defensive midfielder as his tackling is woeful. Anyone who thinks otherwise should have a look at Coventry's 2nd goal when we played them at home. Just about says it all for me. My opinion of course.

Passing sideways: True of most of our players.

Not a defensive midfielder: Man of the match by some distance when England played Trinidad in the world cup- and that was a far better England team than the one we have now.

I'm guessing that those on the pitch now, will be players we want to keep next season.

Plus, for all his faults, he's one of the few midfielders who looks like he might get on the score sheet from open play.

Off the line...Pope.

[PVFC764]

Cant wait for the Sjoke commentators. But they are not too bad.

 

Is it going to be one of those days, balls cleared off the line, hitting the posts and crossbars and they nick a goal in the 92nd minute.

 

Come on Vale.

[dazzer]

Get in 1-0, Birchall

[PVFC764]

Winning on corners and their commentators are saying were bossing the game. Am I listening to the Vale commentary?

 

Come on Vale they are there for the taking by the sounds of it.

 

Get in Birchall has just scored. Get in there.

[Paul6754]

Chris Birchall........yahhooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[CambridgeDon]

Yes!!! 0-1!!!!

 

Oh, and it was Birchall...who according to Bianca on Sky showed great strength in shrugging off his marker before despatching the goal. :)

[mr.hobblesworth]

Ha ha ha! Get in!

 

I'll just leave this here...

 

We might as well be starting with 10 ten as Birchall.

Have you just awoken from a 9 year coma or something?? If you have then I'll forgive that utterly ridiculous reply.

1-0 Vale ....BIRCHALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!:razz

[Kingsley Valiants]

Super Chrisy Birchall.

[George]

We might as well be starting with 10 ten as Birchall. It is this sort of selection that makes me think we would be better having a complete overhaul in the summer. I can see a heavy defeat today, which might actually be for the best in the long run. A win imo would only be papering over the cracks.

 

 

*cough*

:laugh: I wasn't happy at all that he's starting but well done lad!
