First fifteen minutes have done nothing to convince me I'm wrong in not being a fan of us playing 4-4-2. Carlisle so far getting the better of the midfield battle with the extra man there.

That said Rodney has just missed an absolute sitter. Am at a loss as to how he didn't score from that close.

1987.......hey dont worry your not the only one who does not know your own clubs history
Was it for being £35,000,000 in debt 3 years after being £150,000,000 in debt. No it wasnt. It also lasted for 6 weeks, not a year. Bolton Wanderers are just a bankruptcy waiting to happen.

Fair play to Carlisle they haven't come to just try and shithouse a draw. Guy was pretty impressive, bit like when we had him on loan many moons ago.

Other than that Whitehead is lucky to still be on the pitch. Rank stupidity that foul on Toure I think it was. We've looked ok coming forward at times but Carlisle overall will be the happier of the two teams.

On a bright note Mitch Clark has looked better as the half has progressed and the centre backs Legge and Crookes have done alright.

Been a bit too open for my liking and are missing the three man midfield we usually have as it’s allowing them space.

Rodders should be burying that header, Pope would have killed for that chance!

That said Carlisle have had a couple of long range efforts and caused some trouble for us.

Might be worth going back to the 3 in the centre midfield though here.

0-0 at half time between two average sides... definitely not two bad sides but we've cancelled each other about and probably shared the good chances. Vale nowhere near as good as I was expecting from them.

It was a yellow all day, Carlisle players made more of it than needed but just a cynical one... the phrase taking one for the team comes to mind!

Wigan aside we’ve been below par for a couple of weeks now and the formation isn’t helping here as you’ve got the midfield. Always feel we can only really play 2 in the middle if we have Manny but he’s injured.

2-0 Salford at HT. We’ve been in the game to be fair but undone by a great strike and a deflected goal.

We were apparently threatened with a 15 point deduction ahead of today had we asked for the game to be called off. Ludicrous.

Even half, but port vale have definitely had the most clear chance with that header. However Alessandra put a great ball across goal begging for someone to get on the end of, but everyone was daydreaming.

Watching on a stream with Vale commentary. Highlight of the half. Port vale number 3 wiping out Gime Toure, no where near the ball... and the Vale commentator “well I didn’t think it was free kick.”. Fortunately he thought the second cynical wipe out of Toure was a free kick and booking.

I haven't seen a team as bad as us for some time, our team wouldn't look good enough for the Conference North.

Take the lead, look comfortable then just decide to fall apart for no reason. Forest Green won't have an easier win this season.

0-0 at Notlob, first 18 minutes we looked OK and they looked dog shit, the rest of the half Notlob looked OK and we turned to dog shit. A half of two halves. Bring on the second half.

It was one of them that’s a definite yellow, but it would serve him right if he did get a red for it as there was no attempt whatsoever to play the ball, solely intent on cleaning out the man, potentially injuring him. Yellow but utter stupidity from Alessandra getting booked for his reaction.

It’s dangerous for us because if we keep 2 v 3 in the midfield he’s got to keep himself very clean to avoid a second yellow. I’d haul him off for Conlon now. Ideally Theo off and Joyce on as well, go back to 4-3-3z

Waiting for the 15 point deduction for Leyton Orient and 30 point deduction for Grimsby Town. Do not think it is right but you can't change the rules mid season.
Oh wait, you can. Forgot that.
EFL is a joke. Starting to think they are running the countries Covid-19 response. It's got their hallmark ineptitude all over it.

The other problem is Rodney is not a proper winger. If we're going to play that way take either Robinson or Pope off, Rodney into the middle and put McKirdy on.

But people shouldn't be a surprised by this. There's a reason not that many teams use this formation much nowadays.

Your goal did seem to come out the blue but once we picked ourselves up and got going again not really heard much threat from you. Never write off us presenting you with a freebie or two even if you won't try making chances yourself, though.

1-0 up against Leyton Orient who are down to 10 men. If Ling isn't subbed off at HT they'll be down to 9 men soon. typical windy rainy matchday at Holker Street that southern teams just don't seam to like.

Back to the football and not the bullshit . Controlling this without really looking threatening.
Our keepers not kicked anything out to a Grimsby player because he not touched the ball yet. Delaney controlled in defence,even Santos is having a decent game.
Tutte is running the midfield and is keeping things moving forward...Crawford is poor and when he is poor our forwards dont get the service.....Grimsby not parking the bus, but lack anything going forward and are happy to just keep doing silly fouls just to break the game up.

1-0 up against a 10-man Orient (should be 9).
Comfortable, although wind looks difficult for both sides. Zouma is class and plays exactly the way Bolton seem to want their defenders to play, overlapping the full back and charging forward. I bet Evatt is kicking himself.

In your case they are inseparable.
