Fitz Hall

Was I watching a different game last night as I thought Hall played well. Won most headers.

Did people miss the fact that Doyley was completely on his own when he scored, where is the Ramage abuse? Did people miss Ramage's dire attempt in the last minute to cross the ball. Did people miss his appalling positional sense when Ellington had a free header and he just watched? Do people miss the fact that he has no pace and is not mobile? Oh no. We like Ramage because he applauds the fans at the end of the game.

People slate Hall on here and I don't think he is exceptional but one thing is for certain he is far better than Ramage. And as for Borrowdale......... just watch his reaction when Cowie strikes the ball. Total bottle job. Jumps out of the way. I also think he is right footed as he looks so awkward clearing the ball up the line with his left.

Hall played his best game of the season last night and Borrowdale his worse.

Totally agree.

Borrowdale was summed up very well by Sideshow Bob on .org - he disappears in games so doesn't look as rank as the likes of Hall but in reality it is a full backs job to at least try and stop a cross - he never does. Sousa realised this and hence wouldn't play him - the reality is now coming home to roost.

Oh and sorry but Hall was crap last night.

Agree I didnt think Hall was bad last night. The other 3 were a lot worse. People looking for scapegoats again, always seems to be Hall & Taraabt. May I add probably the same people were saying Taraabt was the best thing since sliced bread a couple weeks ago.

The problem isent neccessasily the individual player, but the fact that all the chopping and changing spreads lack of confidence within the team as our fantastic ability to not score also does. I do also feel that we are constantly backing when we are been taken on a counterattack. This is in my opinion where Mahon was good.

Hall played better last night (don't get me wrong I still think he was poor, just not as bad!) than any other game this season but he is still a liability and doesnt organise the defence, his marking is terrible at times!

The back four we had last night were possibly the worst i have seen for ages.However - defending is done all over the pitch.

The first goal should have been cut out by our left sided midfield/defence.But last night we had a centre midfielder playing out of his natural position and his link with Borrowdale was poor.Borrowdale should have stepped up and attacked their right sided player.But Borrowdale has poor positional sense.When the ball was knocked over - our marking was poor.Not sure who was marking whom, but Doyley was allowed in around the back - wayne R should have been tracking back.

The second goal - our defence was so flat and square and just backed off the goalscorer.

Hall and Stewart's tackle last nights were poor and another ref could have sent both off, as they both lunged into two footed tackles.Stewart won most in the air - but bothe Hall and Stewart just lumped ball forward and straight back to opposition.

Ramage tackles well but will get roasted due to lack of any sort of pace.

Legs - should have been shielding the back four with watson - but maybe blame the pitch but they were both poor.

Look at Doyley(never scored and nearly 400 years old) and their right back and how they oth attacked and got to by lines.Never see our two do that.

For me - it's not just the fault of the defenders - but the four we have are ...in my opinion poor and WBA will murder them if played again.
