Thanks for those stats JP
But the only stat that sticks with me is the one that matters most.
That fateful Grand final day on 21st April, 2013 when the table topping Wankerers FAILED to prevent the worst outcome of all.
It was the Wanderers who let the sCCuM win. It was the Wanderers who let the rest of the A-League down.

Never forget people. Never forget....

No Rolls Royce
Lose
FTW

I want Jackson in for Boogs. He has been responsible for each goal we've conceded this season!!

true, but on the other hand wanderers are worse

Taggart second goal was Jackson's fault shit clearance and didnt close down cross leaving Boogs with 3 man in the box to mark

[white city]

As long as Nigel Boogaard is in the team i will always watch with concern when the opposition team are attacking. Im afraid boogs is a liability in defence and it needs to be realised. he came to Newcastle on the decline and has only got worse. He scored an own goal from having no awareness of his positioning and his opponent. He was caught napping numerous times when Maccarone got the ball. Whether he was instructed to not man mark he was very often not even zone marking.

fortunately for VAR he was let off from being embarrased by the goal he ball watched the whole time.

He is slow
and has lost all positional awareness.

NTS is slow aswell but he makes up for it with his read of the game.

Boogs plain and simply has none of this, and most of the times you will see him barking frustrations with others around him following his errors.

3 men to mark??

He wasn't marking his man


Call a spade a spade

He has been a ****ing liability to us

Topor Georgevski and Vujica have been fantastic all 3 games

Even Duncan has been pretty anonymous

The only thing of regularity has been Boogaard getting carved up

Problem is we will never see him dropped!! his a protected entity!!

Not saying he's not in bad form but not every goal has been his fault

[goaliepersempre]

KEEEEEENNNNNN straight of the plane sunday morning and then up to Newy

Friday fly out cant come soon enough

[Mark325]

We move on boogard and defensively we'd be a lot better off

I know he's more of a midfielder, but if we ain't using johnny k for anything I'd rather see him get the run at cb, I really don't understand why Ernie isn't using him right now

[plague]

5pm kickoff you say?

i should be coming up the 16th fairway at Bonville right around then, therefore will give zero ****s about this match.


legit though where is Johnny K?

Merrick OUT

[Roundball Enthusiast]

Lose.

Fold the club now.

[goaliepersempre]

is the womens game before or after?

[Jeterpool]

is the womens game before or after?

Before. 2pm kick off.

[Jetmaster]

Good to see that WSW and Adelaide kicked the shit out of each other last night. Wanderers may have one or two out this weekend.

I agree with everything you have written. Chuck Kantarovski in the liability category too.
