McKeown's Indecisiveness

Quoted from 28195

This post should be deleted, why single out players, what is the positive outcome of this?

Frustrated paying fans get a chance to vent?

How can you be frustrated, we've had a great start to the season and have a great squad. Have we progressed in the past 12 months? YES get a grip.....

Quoted from ginnywings

We all thought he should have kept coming once he started to, but he seemed to change his mind and hesitated. Would have to see the replay but he looked favourite to reach the ball from where i was sat. Could be wrong on that though, so undecided until i see the highlights.

On the highlights it really looks like he would have left himself stranded if he came out for it. Nobody seemed to have him marked it looked like Gowling and Pearson doubled up on Dagnal leaving them nowhere for the goal.

I'm not frustrated you just asked why people would post like this and i offered an answer.........I have a "grip" and am happy with our start.

Thought there was a lot of indecisiveness amongst the back 5 today and in previous matches. Think it needs to be picked up in the training but will say that the keeper at the other end showed confidence in coming out to clear or gather the ball. Would be interested to see our loanee keeper given some playing time as well as our latest signing to instill (hopefully) some confidence. Agree with earlier comments that we have had a decent start and think the team at times are playing some great football so not too worried at this time.

Fair enough. The highlights often show things in a different light from the one look you get at a game.

Thought he kept us in it for long periods today, made an excellent penalty save and 2 or 3 really good saves in open play as well, plus claimed balls in his area better. My MOM.

Not seen a replay, but didn't personally think he did much wrong for either of the goals.

For me, the frustration came with their second because Summerfield was clearly shoved in the air when trying to head clear in the lead up to that. He got his head to it to some degree and the referee let play go on, but the ball fell straight to their player, the cross came in from the other side and they somehow scored. Still not sure how it found its way into the corner though. A clear foul on Summerfield, poor refereeing (quelle surprise), goal.

First half, we weren't at the races and deserved to be behind. Second half, not the case as we played a good bit better (though not brilliantly).

As has been noted in this thread, it seems strange to blame McKeown today as he dealt with almost everything our mistakes gifted them.

Quoted from Grantley

Don't think Mckeown could've done much better today. Could he have come for the first? Yes. Should there have been a defender there? Yes. He saved a penalty and another goal in the second half, don't forget, both from mistakes by other players, as well as the first.

How do you save a goal?  

The title of this thread sounds like a real ale. Probably an IPA, about 6.4%
