Boxing Day

[AdamStag]

that we went 2 down

god love football.

Fair play to pools though for their fans and noise, that alone deserves something.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Blehhhhh 2-2

 

[MadJohn]

Burey for the win?

 

[MadJohn]

Abandon the game!

 

[AdamStag]

We’ve just scored, i didn’t see it

 

[MadJohn]

Seriously, call it off!!

 

[MadJohn]

(To be fair, 3-2 still flatters us)

 

[Chief Rocka]

3-2 down

Call it off!

 

[kieran_vale]

Feels that like that third goal for Scunny is a killer for Oldham in their hopes of staying up even at this stage.

 

[hellogregory]

We are in deep deep deep shit now Scunthorpe have started their revival.

 

[Conker]

Hartlepool thought they got a last minute equaliser for five minutes but it was offside

Impossible to tell whether he was or not, right kick in the cock that though, we wouldn't of deserved it, we're poor, just not good enough, hoofball tactics to short arses upfront, we look alright when we actually play football.

 

[Bottega Don]

Wow, we actually managed to win an away game. I am at a loss for words.

We did fully deserve it based on that second half performance, Ryan Loft changed the game coming off the bench.

We outplayed you for the majority of it, I’m not sure if it was offside or not. We cannot defend set-pieces that’s for sure but our form is incredible atm.

 

[Ninety Per Cent]

Magic. Lincoln blowing a two goal lead as well, it’s been a good afternoon.

Aye snap, we have a keeper who just wants to shithouse his way through a game cos he's actually hopeless at keeping shots out of his net.

No complaints from me, best team won.

We should have signed loft permanently when we had the chandler. I mean he was absolutely shite, but he’d be a thousand times more effective than the vanarama north standard losers we have playing for us now.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Utterly shite, utterly predictable. Tranmere played that game at walking pace and just soaked up our crosses. Didn't help that our slow-as-fuck centre backs forgot to defend the first goal.

We had loads of the ball but nobody trying to get on the end of crosses so it was a waste of time.

 

[Bottega Don]

I mean it's probably the first time he's played well all season, he has the same amount of goals as Jordan Gibson.

 

[MadJohn]

There's something about Mansfield with us.

1963. Led 2-0 at home, conceded 4 in 20 minutes, lost 4-3
1982. Led 2-0 at Field Mill, conceded 3 in 18 minutes, lost 3-2
2000. Led 3-1 at Field Mill with eight minutes left, conceded 3 in 5 minutes, lost 4-3
2021. Led 2-0 at Field Mill, conceded 3 in 12 minutes, lost 3-2

Maybe we should try starting slowly ..

Tried to watch today ,fog was terrible ,and thats in spain deserved win for us got ready to switch off at 02 but hey ho great game

 

[AdamStag]

The problem being is mansfield totally deserved the win, we were the better side throughout, in every department, that we were 1 down was funny 2 was scandalous.

The 2nd half produced what should have happened.

I’d have loved to have seen any of our goals but fucked off when we went 2 down to the bar

 

[BarraMatt]

Huge game on Wednesday now, assuming it goes ahead.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Didn't see the game so can't comment too much, in fact not seen a lot of pools since Lee was appointed. Sounds like the football we're now playing is terrible. Give him a chance and all that but I never had a good feeling this management team was ever going to work. They were about 4th choice at best but no fucker else wanted it.

See what they can do in Jan, he needs a complete squad overhaul if we're going Long Lee Ball

 

[Conker]

Clough post match interview suggest we were literally a player off having to call this game off, very unlikely to be playing our next two games.

 

[RLC]

I did not think we were great in possession today. Barrow knocked the ball around well for long periods, which you would expect of a Cooper team, although they did have an extra man in midfield.

However, I don't think they tested Doohan all game. If we score an early goal at the moment we are very difficult to break down, not just because of the centre halves, but also because of the workrate and pressing of the rest of the team out of possession.

It is a pity Nicky Maynard went off with what looks like a nasty injury, just as he was getting into the groove.

We have certainly come out of this Covid period better than some of our rivals. Hopefully the Hartlepool game on Wednesday night can also go ahead.

There's hasn't been a decent performance yet, scraped by in all three league games, for me the pair of them get a free pass for the rest of this season assuming we don't go down, we have to spend in January, no good relying on loan's from the Boro, although saying that if Brad James fancies a spell for the second half of the season I wouldn't turn it down cos these two keepers we have are hopeless.

Cullen tries his best but needs a striker playing next to him, we've known this all season, if we're gonna persist in punting the fucker 60 yards forward make sure it's to some brick shithouse Ogre looking player that can hold a ball up, Rochdale the other week had a big fuck off striker playing upfront for them, Andrews I think it was, really looked the part, we need someone like that upfront.

 

[Optimistic Poolie]

No complaints about the final result, the best team won on the day 100%. Utter garbage football from us yet again, but we some how found ourselves 2 goals up. Can’t really comment on any of Mansfield’s goals as I couldn’t see a fucking thing. However, I have to say from where I was stood there was absolutely no way the late goal was offside. It would’ve been a robbery but we should have got a point.

 

[Sestonpoolie]

I was really worried with the appointment’s of Lee/Nelson & that’s been bourne out by three shocking performances.
We have two fantastic wingbacks in Sterry & Ferguson,but they are now completely ignored with this hoof ball garbage.
We got away with the first half because the Stags didn’t have their shooting boots on,but once they got the first,it was a forgone conclusion.
Shocking defending for the goals & I really feel sorry for Cullen.
What is he supposed to do with the ball continually being hoofed in the air.
As far as I’m concerned,we’re in serious trouble with these two plonkers in charge.

You are a good football team. Get a striker who can score and i think you will be fine.
