Ken Buckley : 24/05/2015
Our 15th home defeat this season and, looking at the players we have got, you have to wonder why. Today Spurs made us look ordinary.
Ken Buckley : 16/05/2015
Overall a game that took a half and half of a half to ignite but when it did it got entertaining.
Ken Buckley : 09/05/2015
Overall I thought the better side lost but if you donÂ’t score you canÂ’t win and one or two mistakes at the back and the lesser side has won.
Ken Buckley : 02/05/2015
Overall a disappointing day out – not because we lost but the manner in which we lost. It was as though the mental state of the players was that they knew there was nothing to play for, they were safe and could not challenge for anything and put in a display that professional players should be ashamed of.
Ken Buckley : 26/04/2015
A good day out in good weather, good company and a good display from the team.
Ken Buckley : 18/04/2015
All-in-all, a nice day out, three points but in truth there was more entertainment in the fan zone than on the pitch.
Ken Buckley : 11/04/2015
A report from the Liberty Stadium where Everton dropped two more points as Jonoe Shelvey cancelled out Aaron Lennon's opener.
Ken Buckley : 04/04/2015
Overall I enjoyed the day out and I was enthralled how our style of play has evolved from early season Tikka—Takka and messing about at the back thus giving goals away to today where you could say we won ugly and won with a clean sheet.
Ken Buckley : 22/03/2015
Overall not the most entertaining of games yet a thrilling day out but only after the final whistle went confirming we had taken all the points.
Ken Buckley : 15/03/2015
"Job done. Now for the little matter of progression in Kiev and three more points at QPR. If we show the better bits of today I am hopeful."
Ken Buckley : 13/03/2015
Overall after the first thirty odd minutes of dross a good game ensued thanks to the forceful demands of the faithful and the players for taking advice from the song and did it ‘My Way’.
Ken Buckley : 05/03/2015
Overall a frustrating game that did provide a more intense display but without ever looking as though we had the opponents on the rack or create any real goal bound efforts.
Ken Buckley : 01/03/2015
Arsenal is never an easy game but neither is any other game in the EPL and we are just not doing well enough against anyone at the moment to rule out a relegation fight
Ken Buckley : 22/02/2015
Overall a disappointing day out as the game reflected the weather –not the best.
Ken Buckley : 07/02/2015
Overall a bit of a damp squib of a derby that for me lacked that local bragging rights intensity and never really produced a tackle that could be put down as a cruncher or game changer. We did have a few handbags near the end when Besic didnÂ’t take too kindly to a tackle and retaliated which prompted a pushing and shoving session and yellow cards for Besic and Naismith along with Henderson. This insured we won the card count 4-1.
Ken Buckley : 01/02/2015
Not the best of games yet in many ways a thriller and to take the three points was priceless. Although we did revert to the agricultural at times some decent stuff was also played and I thought we looked better for it. The burning question now is can we kick on and what will the managers preferred style of play be. I just hope he gets it right.
Ken Buckley : 10/01/2015
I thought that today we showed we can mix it up and play some joined up stuff as well as having no nonsense clearances when under pressure in the box. First half today we did have a bit of ‘tippy- Tappy’ in the box and got into trouble whilst second half we cut that out and looked that bit more confident and solid.
Ken Buckley : 07/01/2015
Overall a frustrating night out with the last 8 minutes being the highlight.
Ken Buckley : 01/01/2015
Ken's report from another miserable away day
Ken Buckley : 29/12/2014
Ken made the cold trip to the northeast to witness a debacle unfold at St James' Park
Ken Buckley : 26/12/2014
Boxing Day... a home game and we turn up full of expectation after that debacle at Southampton; on receiving the team lineup, most were optimistic with the only debate being who would get the winger's job as we only had Mirallas as a recognised wide man... So who? Naismith or Barkley? By the end of the game, I donÂ’t think we got the answer as players were popping up anywhere and everywhere yet without quite knowing why... or so it seemed from the stand.
Ken Buckley : 21/12/2014
Ken reports on the debacle at the St Mary's
Ken Buckley : 16/12/2014
Not the best of displays to watch and I heard many a comment about how our style of play is boring and that is after a 3-1 win.
Ken Buckley : 06/12/2014
Overall, a better effort than against Hull but McCarthy and Naismith are big misses for us at the moment. The likes of Baines, Coleman, Distin, Barry and Jags plus Mirallas are just coming back from injury, not yet at their peak, and unable to help those who have to come in to cover for the injured first teamers as much as they would like.
Ken Buckley : 04/12/2014
Overall, I was disappointed with the fare on view but I will not get carried away as there is still a long way to go and some good players to get back fit.
Ken Buckley : 23/11/2014
Overall a win with a depleted team and some good performances and a couple not so good, some good joined up moves and some not so good.
Ken Buckley : 09/11/2014
Ken reports from the Stadium of Light, another draw and more injuries
Ken Buckley : 01/11/2014
Overall, a frustrating afternoon. Not a lot wrong with the build-up play but, oh, the lack of pace in that last third. It was our managerÂ’s 200th Premier League game and it left him with little to cheer about. TodayÂ’s display was fine up to a point, that point being the final third and that I am afraid is a trait that may well leave us short come May. Today was the first game this season we have failed to score and add the fact we kept a clean sheet then there is still room for optimism
Ken Buckley : 26/10/2014
Overall a good day out and the team got the job done.
Ken Buckley : 18/10/2014
The win was everything and from a display that just maybe suggest better things are ahead of us with a bit of better luck on the injury front.
Ken Buckley : 05/10/2014
But for three super saves and two crucial blocks we could have won. Such are the fine margins of football, purely unpredictable.
Ken Buckley : 27/09/2014
It seemed all over when the board went up with just 3 minutes shown but our captain and centre-back hit what can only be described as a ‘Screamer’. It hit the top corner with keeper helpless.
Ken Buckley : 21/09/2014
3-2. Miracle is on! DidnÂ’t happen.
Ken Buckley : 13/09/2014
Ken reports on a ‘boss’ day in the West Midlands
Ken Buckley : 30/08/2014
An unexpected experience that saw us shipping two goals in the first three minutes and then witnessing a humdinger of a game that thrills neutrals and fans of the winners yet, at the same time, leaving the losers to still have some optimism after a thrashing to the tune of ‘ship 6 – score 3’.
Ken Buckley : 24/08/2014
We all saw it coming but what a downer as a draw felt like a loss. Final whistle and no ‘Grand Old Team’ as the fans filed silently out of the ground.
Ken Buckley : 16/08/2014
Overall, a good day out but you wonder how we could perform so differently first half to second...
