Missing Robbo to sit in and stop those quick counters through the middle - we got caught again then similar to the goal.
Think we’re playing some good stuff - just too much passing in and around their area and not testing the keeper. Murray missed a sitter.

Build up play far too slow again. Too many misplaced passes and really poor in the final third.

I think that will be our saving grace, Weeks and Murray against a tired defence should bring us some luck 2nd half Desperate times really though when we are banking on beating a side 3 leagues below because they are tired. We haven’t tested the keeper yet, bonecrusher! Have to hope for something to change.

This is a tough game, but that half wasn't good enough. Basic mistakes, dawdling on the ball against a team who obviously aren't going to give us the time to do that, and very little quality in attack.

We’re going to go the whole half without their Keeper having to make a save! Shocking One save right at the very end, although I could have saved it myself.

Just grateful that the average armchair fan in the city will be too preoccupied with how Liverpool are doing to be watching this.
Uninspiring so far and right now I’d probably take a replay on Tuesday, but hopefully the second half will see us properly test their goalkeeper and get back in it.

Fuck me that was a bad first half - arguably the worst we've been in sometime.
Week has lost the ball countless times, Glendon and Whitehouse non existent. Murrays shooting boots aren't packed.
Caton/Thomas also non existent.
It can only get better, right?

Best part of it is that he isn't even a goal keeper anymore but a coach at Leeds brought in in an emergency!

Basic mistakes, dawdling on the ball against a team who obviously aren't going to give us the time to do that, and very little quality in attack. Nobody in midfield willing to run at the defence. Weeks, Glendon and Murray want to unpick the opposition so we are playing in front of them without breaking the lines. I'd like to see them run at the defence. Despite this, we've had by far the better of the chances in the first half, just need to find the net (for once...🙄)

In control overall but you do fear for us given the aimless passing and the lack of chances we create. Definitely Sparrow's poor pass for the goal but we were horribly exposed. Where was Taylor? Got sucked into the trap they've set...let us play high up the pitch then hit on the break. Could hear Calum shouting about it before the goal. Big 45 coming up here. Need to make sure we don't get caught again and hope we get a chance that doesn't fall to Murray. His finishing really is beyond a joke.

Despite what Wortley says, Stanway is NOT a good Goalie "at this level" (good with his feet mind, maybe we should play Rush-Goalie) and Murray shoots like he's wearing pillows for boots

How frustrating is Thomas he came on and was brilliant last week but today he couldn’t trap a bag of cement.

Caton/Thomas also non existent. It can only get better, right? The performance isn’t much different to all of last season. Didn’t seem to matter last season as our results and final league position masked it. If you’re winning games, doesn’t matter how you play. Not winning them… it shows.

I'm just glad the lads in 'Spoons couldn't get it on the TVs here, seen at least 3 Goat shirts here, might have turned ugly...although 3 sister-marrying-inbreds means it's ugly enough

Tactically it seems wrong. The only width we have is Joel Taylor who is slinging the ball into the box from deep. Not working.
The Thomas experiment is failing again. Not sure what he’s adding to this.
The worst bit is Tadcaster really do look like a Step 5 side. They’re blowing out of their arse and we’re losing to them. Worrying.

Genuinely think most of us on here could play boring, slow side to side football. Abysmal. We had them on the counter once and we literally went backwards and let them get set again. Joke

Embarrassing, no good having nice build up play if you're not going to be incisive in the final third and have movement up there and the killer pass. We just don't have anywhere near enough shots on goal. Need to absolutely go at these second half, but I won't hold my breath.
