[Bottega Don]

I trust Askey, he wont last five minutes if he plays up.

Miller, Whitfield and Hannant for example show that.

We've now got pretty much two full starting XI's capable at this level of competing which is pleasing both of similar quality levels.

We have pretty much being playing with a reserve side all season due to the amount of injuries we have no wonder we are going down.

What happened to the two starting 11's you had?

 

[valefan16]

Completely undeserved lead for Salford but only ourselves to blame, Rodney takes a heavy touch when he should put us ahead, they break and score.

Montano and Gibbons injured. Shit luck on that front.

 

[AR27]

Mansfield been the better side albeit not created anything since hitting the post early on. We’ve been below par to say the least and I expect us to be much improved in the second half.

 

[kieran_vale]

Salford probably could have got a second just before half time as well. We have done a good job for most of this half and it is really unfortunate we are behind. Just hope we keep going.

Rodney showed the not so great side of his game just before their goal he had a decent chance himself and again just got caught in two minds and ended up doing nothing with it.

 

[valefan16]

What happened to the two starting 11's you had?

Mostly injured and can’t be arsed.

 

[pontoonlew]

Hurst is worse than Holloway, our fans forgot that it was shite for the majority of the time under Hurst, celebrated when he was hired and now he’s taking us down without a fucking whimper.

Awful, negative tactics without learning the huge lessons he should’ve learnt so far.

Going down

 

[SVH]

Somehow the game is goaless but been an entertaining game. Scunthorpe have grown into it as the half went on but if we get one I think we’ll go on to win it comfortably.

The longer it stays 0-0 the more Scunthorpe will become more confident.

 

[Chris FGR]

We've knocked it about ok but are all over the place at the back, maybe no surprise given all our injuries there, but still need to be better then that. Stevenage opening us up on the break far too easily, they could get 4 or 5 at this rate.

We will 100% be playing for a point.

Our striker has barely moved this half, unless he decides to show up I don't think we will be a threat at all.

Its your game to win just need to finish the numerous chances you will get.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

We desperately need a win, yet we still have 9 defensive players on. Can't see the wisdom in that.

 

[Shrimper92]

Very soft penalty. Game done.

We've had 1 penalty all season

 

[Si Robin]

1 up through a penalty.

Our lad was looking for it and went down easily, but is a nailed on pen these days.

 

[Shrimpurh]

We won’t score

 

[Bottega Don]

60 minutes gone and Cambridge's keeper hasn't touched the ball with his hands, this is tragic even by our standards

 

[GTFCfish]

If our game was a boxing match the ref would be stopping it, how we’re only 1 down is staggering, Orient should be at least 3 or 4 up.

 

[Shrimpurh]

Acquah is so fucking shite

 

[shoddycollins]

A carlisle player was brought down in the box, the referee pointed to the spot, the Colchester players protested, the referee spoke to his linesman and signalled for a goal kick, the Carlisle players then protest and the referee changes his decision to a corner.

Ladies and gentlemen, Trevor Kettle

 

[Si Robin]

Finally there's been a shot on target.

The only other one was the penalty.

 

[Bottega Don]

Striker off from a defensive midfielder

We're going to end the game with 1 shot which went 100 yards over the bar

 

[Pablosammy]

Not one for the purist, this. The ball isn't hitting the deck very often!

 

[shoddycollins]

And for the fourth time in five games. We've conceded a stupid penalty

 

[Chris FGR]

3-0. Getting hammered by Southend and now Stevenage doesn't bode well.

 

[dedwardp]

Well that sounded very much against the run of play.

 

[Bottega Don]

And our CB is injured meaning we are putting a RB there

3 of our 4 CB's out injured, our injury luck is horrendous this season

 

[shoddycollins]

Well that sounded very much against the run of play.

You'll go on to win the game now

 

[Laker]

We can’t score. :-(

 

[GTFCfish]

Acquah is so fucking shite

A bit harsh that, Barbie Girl yeah but Doctor Jones is decent enough.

 

[Bottega Don]

We can’t score. :-(

Our back 4 is now 3 full backs and a half fit CB, if you don't score it will be a miracle

 

[Pablosammy]

3-0. Getting hammered by Southend and now Stevenage doesn't bode well.

I was surprised how good Stevenage were against us recently. They're certainly no pushovers these days.
