[クレイグ]

Should be doing better, the Grimsby player.

 

[pontoonlew]

First goal looked miles offside but the second is about the worst defending I’ve seen all season, we look absolutely terrible

 

[Son of Cod]

You remind me of us when we played you earlier in the season. Been impressed by you this season too. Off day?

Yeah we've mostly been alright this season. Carlisle and Gillingham away the week before this when Donny have had two home matches won't have helped, especially when we don't really have options to change the starting XI.

 

[kieran_vale]

Fucking hell, shocking start. We need to cancel all our Sky games.

For what it’s worth would co-sign that for us. If we never played on Sky again with our record it’d be too soon.

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

I seem to remember Banksy and Oldaker spraying it about for fun on our last visit to ML

Was that the game you deserved to beat us but didn't?

I remember Oldaker missing a penalty in the playoff final

 

[lordofthepies]

Grimsby smashing themselves in the nuts with a cricket bat here. Wtf was that throw in? And that clearance?

 

[GTFCfish]

That’s one of the worst goals I’ve ever seen us concede, awful throw in then a pathetic attempted clearance from Rodgers.

 

[jacobncfc]

A shame to see the state of Sacchi’s Milan these days.

 

[Son of Cod]

Rodgers straight red for dissent as well was that? What an absolute shambles.

 

[BarraMatt]

Is there anyone in this league that doesn't have an injury crisis?

 

[pontoonlew]

Sky have pumped all this money into the game and can’t even send the commentator to the game.

How do we know? Because he’s yet to realise Rodgers has been sent off

I didn’t know either my lad just texted me I thought the stream must be behind.

 

[Son of Cod]

Does he know what actually happened? Nobody seems sure.

 

[GTFCfish]

I’m gonna stick my neck on the line and predict that we’re not gonna come back from this.

 

[GTFCfish]

Does he know what actually happened? Nobody seems sure.

Apparently 2 yellows both for dissent straight after each other.

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

I think Grimsby played considerably better in the 4-1 hammering at Meadow Lane.

Expect and hope Donny take their foot off the the gas

 

[valefan16]

Jayden Stockley and BBB both got off the coach, Stockley doing a little stretch whilst laughing so maybe the rumour wasn’t true!

 

[Son of Cod]

Stupid of him to not calm down but when was the last time you saw that happen? Ref has to exercise some rationality there.

 

[BlackHaddock]

Still only 0-3, doing a lot better with just 10 men!

 

[valefan16]

Notts are as bad as us! Ticket scanners not working!

 

[BlackHaddock]

Notts are as bad as us! Ticket scanners not working!

No one's as bad as us today, players and system not working!

 

[Son of Cod]

Can someone please tell the Donny fans they're 3-0 up and in a full away end in a local match?

[valefan16]

Christ what line up is that! Chislett, Stockley on the bench, no Benicio at all, Jack Shorrock randomly starting out of nowhere.

4-0 defeat.

I stopped watching at half time but I did think they were fairly quiet!

We seemed to have picked 6 defenders today... I'm guessing Zac Williams maybe moves into midfield?

Who is trying to get in at 2pm!? They deserve to wait.

 

[Jimmy Anderson]

The main vale thing is Ripley starting meaning anything notts county hits on target goes in. Playing shorrock a 17 year old when he ain't featured all season is strange basically picked a team knowing full well it's going lose. Basically goes back to last season when you saw the team selection were baffled and knew you were losing easily. Going be alot of pissed off away fans when they see that line up as good as throwing the match by picking that team.

I’m baffled by it. Why leave your best players on the bench from the start? Is it John who’s been out best full back at centre half? Why no Hennegan to deal with Jatta and his strength? Madness.

No chislett makes zero sense when he can do something from nothing.

I think he's just picked that side so he can say he has given other players a game. The only problem is that side selected isn't anywhere near good enough compared to what we are capable of putting out. It's very likely a thrashing will happen now but he's got his excuse in already that it's a reserve side playing today.

 

[jacobncfc]

Don’t give up hope, you wouldn’t be the first side to pick a team that got this reaction specifically to counter how we try and play and it work brilliantly in the last couple of years.
