Southend want this more by far, our players are already on their summer holidays.

This will go 0-1 soon and it'll be game over.

Be amazed if we score.

My net worth has just about trebled over the last 2 months thanks to Carlisle United.

BBC Glos are usually the same duo, Ian Randell and Billy Hunt. For some reason on away games you can only get the BBC on AM as they aren't at the ground due to covid. On the stream the comms are Connor Shaw (club media man) and James Mooney (club sec.). none of who are trained commentators.

Ah right, didn't realise, definitely prefer Randell.
Bench is looking a bit thin too, so we aren't really going to change it up much if we can't get back in to it.

 

[kieran_vale]

More than happy with that half. Apart from one shot which Brown easily got behind they’ve not threatened and if any team looks likely it’s us to score again.

Manny is running the show. Just a shame can only get a certain amount of games out of him.

 

[Gladders]

Well this is worse than the Tranmere game for quality.

Don't think we have been in Mansfield's box in open play nevermind have a shot. Mansfield for all their possession have done nothing with it other than score a goal which of course was a wonder strike from 25 yards. Other than that neither keeper has had a save to make.

 

[Bottega Don]

Be amazed if we score.

It's coming, you've came close numerous times

 

[valefan16]

Very good and dominant first half although disappointed Theo was half arsed waving a foot at a tap in which would have had us cruising.

Great finish from Rodney who looks better since his goal Tuesday.

Need to keep it up, huge game this.

 

[stevowanderer]

Awful. Walsall seem to be outnumbering us all over the pitch. We look miles off it. Can't see where a goal is coming from for us.

 

[SVH]

Very good half and could have gone in 2 or 3 to the good. Great save for the penalty from Mullin.

I’m sure Forest Green won’t be they poor second half but they couldn’t get near Hoolahan or Boateng in that first half.

I put the Forest Green commentary on because my home one doesn’t seem to be working. If you close your eyes and listen to it you have no idea what is going on.

 

[Pablosammy]

We've really lost our spark following the pizza final. We just seem to have lost that half a yard of pace, that split second of reaction times and that sixth sense during attacking play. We're knackered.

 

[GTFCfish]

So a must win game and it looks like we’re really going for it.

 

[masi51]

Walsall more than deserve to be in front......Keep the same team we lose.
Lee as much as i bigged him up was at fault for the goal
Fonz yet again not touched the ball

We need to step up second half......Nobody but Cheltenham and Cambridge want it enough.
Fonz needs replacing asap........nothing to lose straight swap for Maddison

 

[Essex2Wessex]

Cambridge totally outclassing us first half. We're definitely missing our regular midfield

 

[masi51]

your best player in the league would be better suited for us as being only good enough for our bench we could just give him 15mins here and there

guess i shot myself in the foot

 

[huddsmoose]

Yeah... But I can still see a sucker punch coming. You're a decent side and we need at least one more IMO.

We definitely aren't the same team without Sarcevic and Delf is not an attacking midfielder. He's a wide man. He's not good enough on the ball to be in the middle. Swap him and Dapo over second half at the very least. Could be the game for maddison to come good

 

[Arbury]

Good half that from us, would be typical of Cooper though to jam his way to a goal!!

[Bottega Don]

Our players just don't give a shit today and it's shocking. We are sleepwalking our way back into a relegation battle we should be long gone from, we will more than likely be fine due to the points we have but we shouldn't need to worry about it.

 

[SVH]

Walsall done the same to us at our place. Outrun us and we’re very hard to break down. They should have been home and dry but Mullin wonder strike got us the win.

Sounds like you could do with Hoolahan today.

 

[Pablosammy]

Passing accuracy percentage in the 40s from both teams, and in the 30s in the attacking third. No wonder it's frustrating to watch.

 

[Casey]

Crawley have to battle away in the second half. Disappointing thing about the first is the we had a gale blowing at our backs and didn't have one long shot. I bet Barrow won't be that stupid.

We need to get the ball down and play. Can't see it happening myself.

Ref seems to be confusing the players. Never a good sign.

Re match commentators, I did say I wasn't impressed by FGR's duo, though I don't know if they're the same chaps doing today's game as I'm listening to ours.

I see Shoddy mentioned the Boro chaps; yeah they're just awful and probably the poorest ones I had to endure this season along with the Salford duo. And PontoonLew's right about the Stags' commentators as well, the chaps sounded like they'd rather be at the pub than at the game.

 

[Bottega Don]

Our quality has been so poor but fair play to Southend they've been really good defensively here, they seem to have players everywhere.

You're not going to get into a relegation battle

lol fair enough

Lose this and we're 6 points clear and have won 1 in 8, that's not a relegation battle?

EDIT: We have more points than I thought we wouldn't be 6 points clear

 

[masi51]

Here we go min 46 they are falling over as though they have been shot.....ffs sooner crowds are in the better

 

[Shrimper92]

You're 11 points clear of us.

There has to be an actual risk of relegation for it to be a relegation battle

 

[The Jovial Forester]

We sound like we might have a goal in us but unfortunately Cambridge sound like they might have another three, though we are having a bit of a spell.

Just edited my post to say that, we have more points than I actually thought
