Away Match Day Thread 4/9/21 L1: AFC Wimbledon v OUFC

[Eaststanding]

Didn’t like the feel of this game as soon as I found it was allocated seating; cue the singers/ non singers, standers/non standers arguments and scores of empty seats, no doubt all that did affect the atmosphere. They might well now have their ground, but surely that’s still a work in progress? Shoehorned between an industrial estate and high rise flats it seemed like an afterthought by the planners.
Fair play to them though, they’re an improvement on last season and showed us a thing or two about stamina, tenacity and oh, finishing, for which Taylor and Holland to name two, can learn from.

No allocated seating where we were, we just sat where we want

We have led 3 away games against 3 poor sides (Bolton's defence was a liability) and we've not won any of them. Not good enough whatsoever.
KR subs were reckless today.

We are not a poor side.

 

[bazzer9461]

We are not a poor side.

No maybe not, but a poor club run very unprofessionally.

 

[LeftSideBoy]

We are not a poor side.

Poor in more ways than one. Let’s be honest..

Unfortunately today, Karl Robinson's lack of tactical awareness came back to bite us hard. We needed a plan B. He chose not to sign one up front. We were utterly dire.

Today's abomination is down to Karl alone. I've said it before but Karl will not deliver promotion as long as he has a hole in his a**e.

 

[Wombles]

We didn’t address the lack of physicality in the middle of the park during the summer and I firmly believe it will be to our detriment this season against the AFC’s and Wycombe’s of the world.

I’d agree on the set piece defending points that have already been made by many. However, we have once again got into a number of excellent positions to score and not taken the opportunities.

We played passing football thanks..dont lump us in with wycombe

No maybe not, but a poor club run very unprofessionally.

Lol give over. We are opening a new stadiilum which has had various issues. We habe a small budget and we are run by fans. The teething issues are in the home end as much as the away end.. it may take us us the whole year to sort it out but thats life. Thanks for the 3 points

What like not finding a simple key to unlock the gate ffs, total shambles and run by imbeciles

 

[tonto]

Fair enough and Karl did give you the points a bit like last season

Well last season we were well on top until the handball, nothing to do with Karl. He has many good qualities and has assembled a great squad but maybe he needs some help with organising the defence. I don’t think it’s all about signing lots more players but making the most of what we have.

 

[uptheus]

Nothing to do with us being beat but there organisation in accommodating away fans

What was wrong?

You won the battle but we will win the war. You'll finish mid-table at best. You've also built a shite new ground in an industrial state in the a**e-end of Wimbledon. When our Indonesian Billionaires finally complete the takeover we'll be in a state of the art stadium in the city of dreaming spires, and you'll still be playing hoofball in an industrial estate.

Good one and true, we can’t defend for s**t

My issue with today is that I don’t think we did need a Plan B. I thought the Plan A was working, we were looking the more likely to break through in a finely-poised game. KR fucked it with the frankly unnecessary changes.

It’s a tricky one. I think saying it’s ‘down to KR alone’ doesn’t really account for the three clear chances (Taylor, Brannagan, Holland) that we missed, which could (and should) have seen us home and dry. The game plan was working. But equally, he completely dropped the ball with the subs. And that’s ultimately what lost us the game.

Just a word on the Wimbledon stadium, if we move away from Grenoble road let’s hope it’s not to a stadium anything like that.

Or, we’ll both have our stadiums and our devoted sets of fans, but we’ll hopefully be in a higher league. No point in showing off about how rich your owners are, fan-owned clubs are a great thing. And our rich remote foreign owners may not be quite what you hope for.

Anthony Forde is not a right back.

Up to a point you were doing ok. Now, you have made yourself look really silly. Your wonderful stadium is really quite pathetic. If that is what you get for the millions you deluded souls poured in then you have been taken for a ride. It looks more than just unfinished, it lacks the finesse of a new build. The seats are cheap and nasty, ours were already failing. The view from the corners is impeded by walls masking the service entrances. The toilets have already failed and are displaying all the qualities of decade old stadiums. To state that the stadium is a work in progress is just confirmation of your lack of belief in ambition. Raised the money yourselves? Good luck, you won't see a penny back.

 

[LeftSideBoy]

we are run by fans.

The same fans that let your club die in front of your very eyes? Ah well, second time lucky and all that…
