R2 - Central Coast Mariners vs Macarthur FC at home

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Good to know the promise to book players for mobbing the ref was bullshit

 

[scottmac]

Our tactics have been spot on. Our execution has been very very poor. Passing has been really bad. Going down the right in the first half we looked great. We've not gone back there as much second half and we really have nothing on our left side.

 

[Meerkat]

Can’t pass.
Can’t shoot.
I’ve lost count of the number of times we have appeared to clear the ball from our own net.
This is an absolute balls up.

 

[gemkayem]

Can’t say I’m enjoying this tbh

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Attendance isn't great

Attendance isn't great

Really? I was thinking this might be peak numbers if the performances don’t improve.

 

[gemkayem]

Horrendous

You're probably not wrong.


Oh f**k this.

 

[scottmac]

Pathetic. Can't believe Monty brought Smith back here. Have a look where he is for that goal.

 

[Ironbark]

We look like the team that travelled this last half hour. Bit weak. Need to put those early opportunities away and stay focused defending as a unit

 

[Yorkshire Mariners FC]

On the face of it we don't look too bad. The backline is missing Faz. Kaltek brain explosion for the first goal. Koul misses two decent chances from 6 yards or less. But players are getting frustrated with each other. Tulio blowing up at Theo for refusing to cross any ball early. Torres blowing up on the other side. Something is not right.

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Holding his face to try get Wilson sent off... f**k I hate that cheating shit

 

[Stuartmcateer]

Why are we banging balls in the air? We don’t win them.

Every corner, every free kick. They have 2 massive CB’s.

Smith thinks we are playing in white the way he is passing and was nowhere for both goals. Theo had a good shot early but wasteful. Steele did nothing.

 

[PatientMariner]

Lacking cohesion at the moment. Torres and Theo are too slow in attacking transition down the flanks. Torres is a one trick pony, any decent video analyst will figure him our real quick (he only has a left foot). Really missing the quality of Cumdog and Silvera.
Still giving it time. We started last season in a similar manner so just got to get our luck back. Maybe a preseason of playing against sub par Asian teams wasnt the best prep?

 

[PatientMariner]

Brian! we have a goal this season! Thank f**k! Now lets get another!!!

 

[shipwreck]

Sounds like a bad game

 

[gemkayem]

Not good enough.

 

[turbo]

Ref has done a number on us today. Where was the VAR reviews for Nizzy getting barged and the handball? Where was Aspro’s clear red? Absolute bullshit regardless of any mistakes our boys made.

 

[Josho Howe]

Hmm...okay now I'm a little concerned. Not good.

The process of the disallowed goal was an embarrassment to the league. Also Nis getting bundled over and a handball missed. Annoying.

 

[Ironbark]

Sounds like a bad game

Only in parts. We were quite good in sections. If we get clinical we'll win games tllike this.

I was concerned in preseason and from AFC cup games we'd be too porous against any reasonable opposition and it's unfortunately proving true so far
