Tuesday 23rd November

[BogDaddyO]

Really scrappy goal that, we've been on top too, bit of a sucker-punch, looks like we're back to our drawing ways.

 

[Bottega Don]

Harry Smith has just missed two huge chances in a row now

If we manage to get a point today it will solely due to Orient missing and not anything we've done well

 

[WilsdenBantam]

God we are terrible, I hate these players some have been here to long already. Clear the decks out shit pricks.

 

[BarraMatt]

FGR take the lead and the ref may as well blow his whistle.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Got one back, now 2-1 down FFS.

 

[Conker]

Very poor from Mansfield tonight, we do have injuries but to offer that little of a attacking threat is embarrassing to be honest.

Clough in the wrong for sticking Bowery upfront again alone instead of bringing Hawkins forward from CB

 

[denzel ecfc]

Unbelievable. Right back in it and had a goal dubiously chalked off, then they score with their only chance of the half.

 

[Randolph Haggerty]

E I e I e I ohhhhhh…
This isn’t very good.
It’s a battle and we’re not up to it.

 

[Cas]

We're gonna need 5-6 players if we want to finish top 7.

 

[Bottega Don]

Orient miss another guilt edge chance, how this is 1-1 I will never know

We’ve so little upfront when injuries strike, bowery had a half decent game on saturday but he’s simply not good enough

 

[Cas]

Hoofball with Theo Robinson up top on his own. Soul destroying. It's pub football.

 

[Trapdoor]

Col U scored 3 goals with 3 shots. They've spent the entire game with 11 men behind the ball. So frustrating but we need to be so much better to break teams like this down. We have not been effective.

 

[BarraMatt]

Wasn't expecting much tonight but we seemed to be well in the game at half time, FGR will have gone up a gear but we seemingly made no fight of it in the second half. Eight games without a win and haven't scored for 360 mins of league football if you disregard the scabby penalty we got against Rochdale.

We were usually good for a goal or two earlier on in the season but Cooper has tried to tighten us up by taking away some attacking prowess as we were giving the ball away in dangerous positions and conceding sloppy goals. As far as I'm concerned we may as well go back to how we were as we were picking up better results.

Something has to change in our current approach as we are sliding further down the table every week. Tough away game at Sutton on Saturday, unlikely that we will get anything there.

 

[Cas]

Dreadful performance. Not a single player comes out of that with any credit. Tranmere deserved their win and they never got out of third gear in the second half. Don't think we actually had an effort at goal in the second half.

I'll be back when Adams has been sacked. Cheerio.

 

[Bottega Don]

Well we've robbed a point there.

Draws won't keep us up but you have to take it considering Orient should've won at a canter. Unfortunately our opponents won't miss 4 guilt edge chances every week.

 

[RiftHouseLad]

Inspired Subs from Sweeny tonight, FFS.
Get a manager in...................................

 

[kieran_vale]

What a awful game that was. By far our worst effort of the season.

Was a moderate improvement second half but we never threatened. Conlon being suspended for Saturday is also not ideal.

 

[valefan16]

Unacceptable level of performance, their cup final and they fought for it, we just didn’t look like we fancied it.
Awful game, two extremely poor sides, they took their only chance we didn’t our two.

Lost Conlon now for the weekend.

 

[AdamStag]

Salford equalised against bristol rovers with 9 men

 

[Huntsman94]

That score flatters the life out of Bradford. Could and should have been 4/5-1.

Much better two recent performances from us and the changes in formation have helped. Hopefully we can kick back on now and get back in that playoff/promotion mix.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Cack us like, manager needed pronto.

 

[MadJohn]

Improvement, but not enough. Good positions but little cutting edge. The squad outside the first XI still looks painfully thin, which makes the chairman's boast about deliberately withholding a significant chunk of the agreed budget from the previous manager in an attempt to get him to sign a new contract all the more frustrating. Another tough one at Vale on Saturday. Need to stop the slide.

 

[Dan Phillips]

We were woeful. Losing at home to Walsall, shock.

Walsall are garbage as well bar a few odd moments of the game. Gifted them the goal then they resorted to time-wasting, going down every 5 seconds and hoof ball.

Classic away performance, I think they call it?

 

[LS Bantam]

Crap again but reflective of the squad and who we have to pick from, Scunthorpe’s first win in however long incoming this Saturday

 

[Soup Ladle]

Bit unlucky tonight I thought but if you don't take your chances the rest is obvious. The defence is leaky as well. That battering ram Simpson just swotted away our defenders all night.

The subs were scandalous. If Cullen had stayed on then that Fela chance would've gone in. Dunno about Cullen's fitness but I'd have kept him on. We were in control at that point.

Our squad is complete wank. We can't change our underpants with the backups we have.

Manager in pronto please.

 

[Indian Dan]

A rare home win 3-1. Hartlepool can feel a bit hard done by,tbh. Thought they played some good stuff at times. Only papers over the cracks of our home form, though.

Mustn’t grumble!

 

[BRFC_Gas]

Salford equalised against bristol rovers with 9 men

More than you will be coming home with tonight. Pitman had a winner ruled offside when it was clearly onside..

 

[Agombar stool]

I know there are a few poolies on here and my words unlikely to be any consolation but I was impressed with you tonight. Few close calls were the difference, the Cullen goal disallowed, which I thought was correct and our first goal which I thought may have been offside against McKirdy. After that pools hit the bar and the scored from a very similar position. You could easily have gone 2-1 up we looked ropey at the back but Tyrese Simpson got a lucky bounce and then you were out on your feet allowing Jack Payne a third. I thought Jonny Williams was outstanding for us and Tyrese Simpson was very good. For you I thought Molyneaux looked a handful.

All the best and safe journey to those that travelled, long way on a cold Tuesday night!

It's absolute pish, the first eleven isn't even a great standard, some have really struggled to make the step up this season, like John said, penny for Raj's thoughts withholding a chunk of the budget leaving DC having to pick up absolute shite like Fondop, Cook, Fela, Smith, Lawlor, these lads would struggle in the league below.
