The one glittery turd today was our goal. Played down the middle again to Hogan who did really well and scored a decent goal. Not the first time he has scored like that. Maybe he isn't the problem and maybe people owe him an apology. Give him chance to run onto the ball and he does create things. Service is key it's about time we slowed down on the piss poor attempts to cross. Not quit completely as we need to mix it up but be more direct. I just want to see more of the first 10 minutes and less of the rest of it

He is FAR, and really FAR better than Hendry.

Yeah, I've very much been team Hogan all along, even if it's been frustrating at times. When he ran through on goal tonight, I had absolutely no doubt he would finish it. He's a great finisher, probably one of the best in the division, but you have to provide those kind of opportunities for him.

No, the service to him is dire, one good ball from Crowley and he scores.

The bigger issue is why the likes of Patterson and O’Rielly aren’t starting, both play with a real purpose

I didn't want to say it but he needs to be dropped for Orsi. If Orsi is a signing Lindsey was happy with why not start him? Makes zero sense doing the same thing and expecting different results

That header was a cracker too. Looked a close offside call.

Speaking of opportunities. 1 of 22 crosses successful. 5%. That is beyond dog shit. We keep insisting on doing that and it is hillarious that I can see it but Lindsey can't. Play it direct down the middle for the love of god please

Hogan just needs service. Crowley can provide that but we are so slow getting up the pitch it's ridiculous
Someone just txt into 3CR that we are slowly playing chess up the pitch until we lose it in the final third and then the opposition are straight in our box like they are playing British Bulldogs. Very apt

Never agreed with the criticism he got. His finishing is decent, as others have said he just doesn't get the opportunities.
