He's great for the opposition I'll give him that.
He's totally not tuned in to any of the rest of our play, any move where there is some momentum building, he kills the momentum. He's casual in possession, gives the ball away in dangerous positions under little pressure. Get's knocked off the ball too easily.
He must talk the talk on the training ground and in the dressing room, but what happens in the pitch is insipid.

Thought he was fine tonight, good first half not so much second half Burger was below par I thought Pearson played well He's a complete bottler. Got no spine at all.

I stuck up for him the other day but that was awful He's so f***** casual, its just negligence. He's totally unreliable, and reliable is the one thing a captain should be.

Ive simply had more than I can take of him.
Haven't disliked a Stoke footballer as much for a long time.
Horrible player.

Ive been slightly disappointed with Burger so far in this game, a few good openings broke down with him when he could have just played the simple option, but work in progress. Burger been excellent mostly I do really like him, maybe its my expectations have gone high.

Miles better Good game, both teams have a threat, Stoke clearly the better side AN decision to go 352 paying off Various players much better tonight, Pearson, Laurent, Campbell Impressed by Haksabanovic Burger not on form Ive been slightly disappointed with Burger so far in this game, a few good openings broke down with him when he could have just played the simple option, but work in progress.

would you swap Bae in for Ty? Campbell is causing their defenders problems, ok the misses are frustrating but he's giving their defence the runaround.

How many yellow cards has Pearson accumulated after the first 8 league and cup games? Other than PNE, how many were picked up in the first half? 4 yellows in 6 league games 3 of them in the 1st half and the other in the 51st minute.

Ive dropped my expectation level for any positive outcome from this game to about zero!
Warnock's last game v Stoke! it's a stuff of nightmares tbh. He's going to milk this one.

I don’t really get what his YouTube channel has got to do with anything or why it’s part of the conversation. He’s been accused of rape by multiple women, he should face trial. It’s starts and ends there really? It matters because the fact he's been accused of some extremely serious historical offences doesn't invalidate the work he's done in shining a light on the aforementioned malpractices in recent years. Referring to his social media output/following as a "cult" is a clear cunt's trick being used by a painfully predictable rabble of posters to undermine that work; and to undermine anyone who thinks those topics are important. I agree he needs to face trial for the most serious offences. That's clearly primary. But let's not pretend the narrative bordering this ongoing episode isn't being patrolled by political vultures. It's always political. Especially on this forum. Totally agree with this. If he's proven guilty of serious offences he faces the consequences. But it's alarming to me how these accusations have come at a time when he is becoming more politically active and questioning people in power. More than a sniff of political opportunism, and a lot of the reporting is using language like 'conspiracy theorist, cult' etc painting a picture of him as sort kind of power crazy nutter before this has been through any kind of proper investigation. He's definitely being assumed guilty which is horrific IF these allegations do turn out to be fabricated.

So Warnock leaves after the Stoke game. Confirmed.
They'll be busting a gut to beat us for sure. Not holding out much hope tbh

Its ok saying drop Campbell, but for all his missed chances he's the only player who gets into positions to score a goal, with the current injuries.
No-one else got anywhere near apart from Gayle who just looks a total lost cause.
At least if Campbell gets his shooting boots on there is a bit of a chance.
Without him we probably go from 30% chance of scoring a goal to 5% imo.

Some of the things being raised make me very suspicious about all this, as well as figuring out who is behind this investigation.
It was aired on Channel 4, but it looks like News Corporation have played a major role in this which makes me very suspicious.
Why are MPs in people in authority concerned that 6m consenting adults follow Russell Brand on social media. They are not following him for his sexual orientations are they?
It looks like there is a concerted effort already to erase this person out of the public eye before any criminal investigation has been embarked on , and the media reporting is basically assuming he's guilty.
No-one's going to touch him now whether he's guilty or not, and all those WHO utter any support him are going to be written off as conspiracy theorists or misogynists.
I'm not a big fan of his content personally but I defend his right to do what he does. At least he produces evidence to support his theories something our elected MPs might consider.

It's the lack of fight that kills all hope . When we concede and go 1 nil down, I just think we will lose . We could go 1 down in the 36th min or 57 min and I just think that is it we are done even though there might be an hour left ! They don't seem up for storming comebacks this lot. They don't seem up for let's chuck numbers up the pitch and hope we can outscore the other lot . We are just too passive. Everyone is well paid , and happy to bank the money and spin the excuses after the game...I thought we looked brave on the ball ...I thought we were better than Norwich...we deserved at least a draw ..if we had scored first that would have made it a different game... Surely if they had no fight after the first goal conceded they’d go on to concede more not boss the game and fail to equalise. Maybe you’re the one giving up and they’re just not very good a crafting goals. I agree really. We completely bossed the second half, just had no goalscorer on the pitch. We didn't give up. we had a good go, but it just wasn't good enough as there was no end product. 2 golden chances and a couple of more that a better finisher would have put away.

Leek through to the next round after an impressive win away at Worcester City
Tom Sparrow featured for Chester in their 3-1 win at 8th tier Tadcaster on BBC live coverage in an early kick off Made a poor mistake for Tadcaster's goal, then was quite solid as the game went on and Chester dominated as expected.

Another shocking ref decision there. Pawson's racking them up here. Shocking referee. Ref seems keen on handing out free pens to the Saudis

Brand has already disclosed that they are after him. Surprise, Surprise...trying to kill off someone who challenges MSM and the establishment. Sounds like they are sending out a warning....challenge us and we will take you down. We live in a very sick society. Awe, c'mon man. Channel 4 is not Establishment and Brand is no more closer to the truth than any of us. He's a rose water believer. (or those heavy rumours are true). Isn't it the Sunday Times who is paying, sorry, behind, this story?

We’ve definitely got some good players now but the manager doesn’t seem to have a clue how to use them!! I’m not sure we have. A few got off to fliers but they’ve all now sunk into the mediocre range (Vidigal excepted ) I'm not sure we have the players either tbh but that's also on the manager. Some of these players will need time. I thought Bae looked miles off it today. Burger looked ok but they need to learn to move the ball quicker, they get caught off the ball too easily. I'm not convinced by Johnson, looks a bit of a headless chicken as well, busy but all over the place.
