Luke Imps 50th birthday special;- League 2 fixtures 03/11/2020

Grimsby having the best of our game and missed an absolute sitter 3 mins in. Our forward players just not able to find each other at all.
I'd hope we can address that and make a change early in the 2nd half, and we might be good for a draw.

 

[Shrimper92]

Bloody hell mate, you must be bad to be 3-0 down to us at half time.

I struggle to see us winning a single game at this point

 

[CTFCfan99]

Fair play we're fucking dreadful. Never seen a side have 60-70% possession every game and do absolutely nothing with it.

 

[Stringy]

Bolton should beat us if they remain patient and keep passing it. However, we could nick it if they don't.

did you rest your 1st team against us so they were fresh for today?

Scrappy game at Walsall. Walsall have most of the call but Crawley gave had the best two chances. We've hit the post and the Walsall keeper dropped an easy one into Nichols and Watters feet but managed to redeem himself.

We need to pass the ball better.

Well that was Dire...Two poor teams Crellin made 2 ok saves, Baptiste is shocking.
Neat and tidy in midfield, but toothless upfront....First goal will win it

Bolton have in nearly every match this season

 

[AR27]

Apologies, I didn't realise just how shit Southend were.

 

[hellogregory]

Excellent first half, penalty maybe a bit soft but we’re good value for the lead. Disappointing it’s only 1-0. I expect a reaction from Newport as our energy levels drop. Devitt has shown in a few flashes why is carlisle fans were absolutely desperate to get him back.

We did against you last Saturday....

 

[Roger Stone]

Never a pen in a month of Sundays - should’ve gone the other way.

 

[Son of Cod]

you sound like masi51 in pre-season about nearly every Bolton player....

Well he's won pretty much every single header tonight again. He's class, an absolute beast of a player. Haven't seen a better CB this season in L2. Watch him drop a load of clangers now!

Our game in December is going to be a slobberknocker. Two teams both horrible at attacking and defending.

What happens when a stoppable force meets a movable object?

hopefully.....

 

[masi51]

1-0 up. Another academy star in the making. What a player Joel is turning into.

He will want to go to a big Club next summer ....We will take him off your hands and you can buy a sit on lawnmower for your pitch

To be fair, he's up against Angus and Luke James who weigh about 10 stone combined. They won't win an aerial duel this season.

Super Jake Taylor gets an equaliser. Come on City let's get all 3 points!

You’ll beat us

 

[Si Robin]

Sounds like we were shocking tonight.

Oh well, it is what it is, we go again on Saturday.

I feel for you mate, it must be horrendous and soul destroying. I thought our last 3 years were bad enough to endure. Good luck after tonight mate

 

[Devon_Lad]

2-2 FT.

Sigh. We seem hard to beat which is good, but just not enough wins.

 

[Bottega Don]

You’ll beat us

I'm not so sure, we generally do badly at Southend.

 

[Kauto Star]

did you rest your 1st team against us so they were fresh for today?

For some strange reason, McCall left out our best player, Elliot Watt, citing the reason afterwards that he did so because of the weather conditions. He played an 18 year old rookie centre half in his central midfield role instead, very weird. McCall is the daddy of all tinkermen and always makes at least 3 changes every game and constantly switching formations, and picking sides to try and counter the opposition.

Slobberknocker, cracking word

 

[Devon_Lad]

Haha I just seen Lolton are losing again. They really are just using this as a pit stop on their journey out of the EFL.

 

[Shrimpurh]

Any records like this are out the window with this side we have.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

How did Grimsby get their pitch so slippery? It's ridiculous.

 

[Roger Stone]

Oh dear getting a pasting

 

[Son of Cod]

5 minutes or so for Barrow to find something. Wouldn't be undeserved too, in all fairness. Unlucky to hit the post and have been decent on the ball. As have we, at times. Two teams who like to get the ball down and knock it around who are fairly evenly matched. But also probably two teams that won't challenge the top of the table.
