Friday & Saturday 4th/5th March

Poor half at Colchester, we’ve had a couple of good chances which we made poor decisions on, Charsley should of cut back with the 3 v 2 but Colchester have threatened a couple of times too.

Sooner we make up to the 3-4-3 not working the better as it’s petering out into another game against a struggler/mid table outfit where we go through the motions and don’t really go for the jugular.

Cooper anonymous so get him off and get big Procs on and maybe Pett for Edmundson and go 3-5-2!

 

[hellogregory]

Our one week off being in the drop zone was good while it lasted.

Back to the usual predictable turgid shite from these losers.

The likes of carver can call me negative all they want, but this is definitely one of the two worst teams in the football league and today it is showing. We absolutely deserve all we get.

 

[kieran_vale]

No changes for us at halftime as it’s worked so well for us so far today

 

[Sestonpoolie]

Agree, not just a big lad, but a good touch too.

Much deserved 2-1 win for us, Diamond aside for Harrogate I thought they were a poor side, nowt like the one in the National League days.

Apart from the goal,Harrogate didn't really offer anything else & it was a pretty comfortable win.
I just wish we start a bit quicker & not go one down before we start playing.
Some lovely football at times & two cracking goals.
Happy days.

This is fucking shameful. Not sure can find any other words for this.

Mediocrity beckons

Alright mate?

I’m not really sure what more evidence is needed to ditch this fucking formation. This is getting to Askey levels of stubbornness from Crosby.

Didn’t do anything right today. Garrity cannot play in a two, the forward line had no cohesion and I’m struggling to remember the last time Worrall put in a good delivery. Add in gifting them a free header to win it and that is a thoroughly miserable afternoon.

 

[valefan16]

Absolute embarrassment to lose that and that’s season over. We’ve dominated the play but barely created and managed to get done off a set piece.

We miss DC badly at the moment but can’t have excuses you simply have to win a game like that comfortably and any side with realistic play off ambitions would have.

Change the formation! Why stick with something that hasn’t allowed creativity.

Really really annoyed at that today. That’s a shameful result considering the dominance we had.

 

[Indian Dan]

Fortunate win. Can’t beat a pen in The 96th minute!..

Bradford need a decent striker. God knows how many decent chances they spurned.

 

[Cas]

Had to iFollow this one today because I've been laid up in bed with Pnuemonia since last Sunday, coughing up blood and being generally weaker than a Theo Robinson shot at goal.

We deserved a point from that I thought. Losing to a 96th min pen is a bit rubbish. Oh well. We were better today at least. Think will be okay when some of the injured players come back in

Aye, to be honest like I've not seen us come out the traps early doors under Lee yet. All seems to start reactive than pro active, let's be honest we were going nowhere in the game until Molyneux's banger. Get the fucker signed up. He is deadly cutting in and getting away shots.

Deserved the win mind, we had them on toast a good portion of the game until they threatened late on. Delighted with the season we've had bearing in mind the DC upheaval and no pre season.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

Gutted didn’t deserve to lose that but stupid penalty to give away.

 

[BarraMatt]

Not much to be said apart from a poor game between two poor sides. Another home game where we create nothing apart from a well taken goal from Rooney. We didn't start the second half with the same energy in terms of pressing, we sat back and then conceded a soft goal from a corner.

Carlisle getting that last minute winner is probably the best scenario from that game to be honest. Apparently they're that mingling a team it's enough to make even John Sheridan's erection go flaccid. They're safe.

 

[Indian Dan]

God knows what your keeper was thinking

 

[The Jovial Forester]

Slow out the blocks and behind early again, then we did get going and won a string of corners but didn't get level until second half. Worth the point but not much more, though could have nicked it. Salford seemed happy to let us do the running but had a few dangerous moments in what sound a flat and bitty game. So still wobbling and while no need to panic as yet getting to be a good long while since a win.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Our next four are Rochdale, Scunthorpe, Carlisle and Orient. Need 6+ points or I'm sure we'll be down.

Today was another frustrating draw at home to a team that came for a point - wish some of them would at least try and attack us... again, we had absolute no answer to a couple of massive centre backs heading everything away.

 

[Ninety Per Cent]

Losing run away ends, but pointless in the greater scheme of things.

Shit that's awful to hear you have pneumonia Cas, hope you get better soon!

Definitely smash and grab today. You should have been out of sight after 20 minutes. We were really in a battle today today and only a ridiculous decision by your keeper after he had made a top save (adrenalin rush from that save??) gifted us all 3 points. Massive 3 points ahead of a huge game at Exeter on Tuesday.

 

[Strawberry_Jam]

just had a great time listening to the rovers commentators on ifollow. 3-2 win, mainly due to Doohan the keeper having a nightmare in the first half

Hoping Holloway returning will at least make the ball stick up top. Harris was abysmal and far too lightweight, didn't win a header all game.

I'd only make two changes from that 11 tbh, Hutton in on the right and then a toss up between Gotts and White in centre mid.

 

[Big Bird]

Bradford sounded decent on the radio so delighted to escape with three points.

Thank you, mate. Only thing holding back my recovery is lack of sleep!

I think it's a case of us just not been good enough up top. The keeper is an oddball tbh. He tends to make a great save then something like an error.

 

[hellogregory]

Well what a turnaround. A shockingly inept 45 followed by excellent character and desire.

Make no mistake about it, this is all down to Paul Simpson. He’s a fantastic manager and if he can keep this shower or shit in the league he deserves a medal.

Absolutely can’t believe this is happening to us. We were 100% down 2 weeks ago after Swindon dicked us, to get 3 wins in a row since then is mental.
Now we’ve given ourselves half a chance.

Incredible.

Yeah, said the same about Harris - he's being asked to be a target man, but he's clearly not that sort of player. Don't think I've seen him have a pass to run onto yet.

Gotts had a lot more space out wide and was good cutting inside - when he moved into the middle he was bullied. For me, just the striker needs swapping next weekend, plus I liked the look of George Williams before his injury, so he needs more run-outs from the bench.

 

[shoddycollins]

Looking at the Oldham forum, the gloss seems well and truly off the Shezerection, it's kind a whole town of HGs. To be fair it must be galling after what has really been an excellent run of form to still be in the relegation zone. Think they'll survive.

 

[chipmunx]

pretty much agree with the other posts - just one thing to add;- what a whiny fat twat Tomlin is.....

 

[kieran_vale]

And now on top of a thoroughly miserable day on the pitch the club have just confirmed Tom Conlon needs an operation and is out for the rest of the season. So anyway when’s the right time to start the mid table thread…??

I think we will join you guys on that one. Been waiting for one to appear for a while now as not good enough to go up and too good to go down

 

[JaredSUFC]

Very good performance from Sutton today in winning 3-0 against Rochdale with some well taken goals.

Back up to 3rd, but there’s a long way to go yet.
