Scummy Fukuoka time wasting 5-2 up with a 12 to 9 man advantage.

Is it too immature to call him Shitmizu? Perhaps, but also maybe appropriate. Not denying the first red though before anyone gets annoyed.

Was about to type ‘Fucking hell Shimizu give us a break you prick’. That explains my feelings I feel

Never used to particularly have a problem with Charlton but for ‘some reason’ have come to dislike them quite intensely recently

Maybe Erison can do the one up front thing but I’m not sure he can play every game. I really want to see two up front and I reckon Yamauchi could have been one of the two, but nothing ever changes it seems.

I think the biggest problem is the formation now. As I said in the post, maybe we don’t have the players to play other formations but you can’t really say they’re working in this formation right now, can you?

Myogan got one half with us and that was it. Einaga didn’t get much more than that. Maybe they’ll eventually come back rejuvenated like… erm… Miyagi.

Vs Gamba Osaka (away) 20/7/25 J League match 24 Gamba Osaka 2 - 1 Kawasaki Frontale What a crushingly predictable result this was. Recently we’re always terrible away at Gamba so in a seas...

New blog post on Gamba away in the league. What better way to follow up a terrible home defeat in the cup than with a terrible away defeat in the league. #frontale #川崎フロンターレ

Vs SC Sagamihara (home) 16/7/25 Emperor's Cup 3rd round Kawasaki Frontale 0 - 0 SC Sagamihara  (AET) (1-3 on penalties) Beat league title favourites Kashima. Have a week off. Lose to Sagamihara on...

New blog post on an absolutely turgid performance against J3 opposition Sagamihara which saw us get knocked out of the Emperor's Cup at only the second time of asking. 🥱🤢🤮🥱

You heard correctly but I’m saving all my best lines for the blog post

A leaf, not a leave. But I’m sure you got the point.

Somewhat unbelievably that second half was even worse than the first!

Those tough guy Marinos fans should take a leave out of Sagamihara’s book

Surely we’re going to get someone. Hopefully. We’ve done better than some expected but definitely there’s some room for improvement

Must be a new signing coming soon, mustn't there? Seeing as both Takai and Haydar have left. Unless we're aiming to make things as seat-of-the-pants as possible. Have a feeling about Taniguchi, but...

Would make more sense than ‘you’ve bought Frontale LINE stickers, so how about some Marinos ones?’

I know I post this every year or so, but I really feel that websites saying ‘you like Frontale, so you might also like these other J League teams’ still proves that technology still doesn’t know how real life works.

Vs Kashima Antlers (home) 5/7/25 J League match 23 Kawasaki Frontale 2 - 1 Kashima Antlers  Ahhhhh. This was a lot of fun, wasn’t it? I’ve long been saying that Kashima aren’t as good as th...

As we played them it was impossible for both teams to fuck up so absolutely delighted we came out on top against them today. I stand by my original post saying they are a bit shit.

Was this the same person who did J League Banter? Because that banter was painfully bad.

I’m guessing that it’s a case of someone who’s spent so long building themself up to be an expert that when they find out other people might actually know more than them they react badly. Seems like it happens more often with Japanese related things in my opinion.

Vs Tokyo Verdy (away) 29/6/25 J League match 22 Tokyo Verdy 1 - 0 Kawasaki Frontale  It’s been said a few times, but I think most people would agree that this was the worst Hasebe Frontale...

New blog post on an away defeat at Tokyo Verdy, a match which in spite of there being a few options, was probably the absolute worst game of the season so far. #frontale #川崎フロンターレ

Yeah. I think as Erison is injured maybe we should stop trying to play the system that works when he plays and instead try to do something that helps the players we have who clearly can’t do that job. Either that or sign some players.

Yeah. Thought he was ok in the first half but was terrible in the second. Yamaguchi again failed to convince me and probably pushed me even further away from being convinced. Yamada had a chance to get back on track today but once again decided to try to shoot from an impossible angle and not pass

There you go, exactly as expected

I said Kashima were a bit shit, didn’t I? Unfortunately, every time they fuck up we fuck up worse, so let’s just write off tomorrow, eh?

Vs Albirex Niigata (home) 25/6/25 J League match 15 Perhaps I was being excessively dramatic after the last match. Certainly I was in an appalling mood after an appalling performance. But judg...

New blog post on a reasonably comfortable home win against Albirex Niigata in the league. #frontale #川崎フロンターレ

Thankfully I arrived fully hydrated after an hour and a half in the pub

More Albirex fans here on a Wednesday night than there were Vissel fans on Saturday.

Also, I’m not sure it’s a good look after a fucking awful game to post up a youtube video of some ‘great Miyagi and Oshima passing’ which obviously finished with a clueless shot off target. This is starting to feel like gaslighting
