Pinnock long throw

[Bingers]

I accept your opinion.

In that case, I am prepared to agree with you.

Ha Ha you two clever chaps. Pinnock did very well today and his long throws worked well as he got the ball into the Area ; and Wycombe got nervous with the long throws which ‘pressurised’ them as did his corners. Their centre half number 17 was having a personal battle with Eaves ; amazingly in some way Eaves troubled their defence. A team mate of number 17 pushed him away for getting in a silly confrontation with Eaves. Have I seen a new side of Eaves today? Hoskins did ok and the irony was Fosu replaced him. Result was two points dropped! Goal keeper did well again and brave with it too  👏 . The good sign is that the defence played very well indeed and a few more like today may indicate we have a unit playing as a League 1 unit. The 700 odd support whose enthusiastic support throughout played a significant part in a gaining a point and I like moral
victories 👏

No 1) Fosu replacing Hoskins never cost us 2pts. Super Sam had 85 minutes on the pitch and never got a sniff.

No 2) The support plays no part in the result, none whatsoever, let alone significant. If it did, how come we lose so many times at home when we have big gates and how come so many teams bring tiny support to Sixfields yet leave with some reward? Also, if a team bought 700 to Sixfields, would we claim they were well supported? I often read people say other clubs couldn't even fill our away end. Stop bigging yourself up at every opportunity.

Note: Pompey took 2,500 to West Brom today. How come they lost 1-5?

We never have big gates at home, it's impossible.

It's about perspective.

Because West Brom had 30,000?
Your wrong, part of the reason teams win more at home than away in general is because of the home support.

I accept your point of view and had Everbrite said part or one of the reasons we pit in such a good performance was the away support I would have accepted that too. However he didn't, did he? He said a significant part. Forget the new manager, forget the new players, forget any work done of the training ground, we got a point because of the "significant" part played by the supporters. Its complete nonsense. He's just bigging himself up AGAIN. He probably thinks if he hadn't have gone we would have lost.

By the way, I can't be wrong on this as its an opinion.

Your second bullet point in response to Everbrite initial post...
2/The support plays no part in the result, none whatsoever, let alone significant.
So the fact that every team in the history of professional football has a better record at home in front of their own fans than away is not in the slightest bit significant to you as an amateur statistician?
Fans play their part in the outcome of games.

and you think that has nothing to do with things like distance travelling or mind set? We all know how supporters expect a more adventurous system at home than away where a point is often deemed a good result (most of the time). In the Covid years, there was no "significant" change in the ratio of home and away wins despite there being no crowds present. How do you explain that?

Or, in your opinion, you cant be wrong?

[TPFKA Marvo]

I guess.

Now he admits he's only guessing.

I thought that the support yesterday was magnificent; they never stopped showing it. At the start they brought an atmosphere worth experiencing on a very cold day it cheered us all up. Frankly to me his opinion is misleading often with emphasis placed on an insignificant POV.

[Deepcut Cobbler]

I thought that Mitch Pinnock had a good game yesterday, his work rate up and down the left was a vast improvement on his pre Kevin Nolan days.

[Tabasco Kid]

Its a Sunday. In his other incarnations be it Marvo, John, whatever, Sunday was always time for an arguement. And I do find it a bit distasteful with his constant rounding on Everbrite. Theres always posters that we all disagree with, but his actions are that of a bully.

[west stand oap]

Ironic that he accuses other people of insults.

Everbrite is the ONLY poster on here who attacks other people on here for their support, or as he sees it, lack of it. He's a s*** stirrer. If you can't see that, fine, but I will continue to pull him up on it.

That’s a game set and match fact. I'll give you that Marvo.
