If that’s one of your worst performances you’re in a false position, thought you looked decent at times, played it about pretty well and caused us problems.

We had a couple of good spells of pressure but never really felt confident we’d get a result. Our equaliser came as a nice surprise, so sickener to concede at the end like that. Not great to see another two injuries to key players either but that’s how it goes when you’re down there I suppose.

Horseman has now lost his first 5 home league games as manager, I don’t think any manager has done that here before. Not even Alan Lewer.

We are on a false position but until we stop letting teams take potshots at us we will concede for fun, thought we stole the win today but after a few ganes where we deserved something & got nothing hopefully we can kick on now.

Your opener was such a lovely take, one to savour.

Wimbledon battered us in the first half, we just couldn't live with their intensity. Al Hamadi and Bugiel upfront were a handful, but Tilley ran the show for them. 2-0 by the break but if they'd have packed their shooting boots it would have been 3 or 4. Easily our worst half of the season, think only Offord, O'Riordan and the keeper deserved any credit, the rest of them were awful.

I'm glad Lee Bell acknowledged in his post match interview that some tactics worked and some didn't. The switch to the 3-5-2 paid off within 6 minutes as we got a goal back from Tabiner, nice finish after a great cross from Cooney. But then for some reason after 60 minutes, they took off Thomas and instead of going like for like and bringing on another CM in White, they brought on Nevitt. I know he scored, but the switch didn't work at all. We created nothing after that change and we couldn't stop Wimbledon from constantly counter attacking us. Again, they had enough chances to finish the game, but we just about held on.

Had a goal ruled out for offside a few minutes before we did score. Made up for Nevitt, top scorer with 4 now. Stole a point from a poor performance. Going to need to be far better going forward, as we have Colchester, Wrexham and Gillingham next up. 3 very tough games.

He isnt playing mate various rumours as to why that is from a knock to a fall out with Sadler.

Still cant believe we didnt take money off you lot for him ,he certainly has a bit of an attitude problem

 

[chief]

Nice to see the Wrexham lot aren't at all RATTLED by Waterfall.

Can hardly remember him.

What was the score yesterday?

 

[Kauto Star]

Fletcher for nothing is looking like much better value than £2m for Armstrong.

Boyle will get 15 goals this season the big ugly lump.

Armstrong was dreadful yesterday, mind you so were the vast majority of players for both sides yesterday.

As boring a match as you could ever witness at a professional level

 

[GFCSludge]

A very entertaining first half from both us and Morecambe, if you’re going to watch the highlights then look out for our second goal, it was a great strike from Mahoney.

Second half didn’t really get going and then they had a player sent off. Don’t mind really, just pleased to win.

First 25 minutes was the best I've seen us in an attacking sense for literally years. Shame Lapslie went off injured and killed our momentum somewhat, but we've got plenty of room to improve still plus plenty of players to welcome back from injury.

We are top of the league!

Are your board usually quick to sack as it does look as if his time is up?

Sooner or later you’ll realise (sadly) that the guys a dick.

 

[JJ1990]

I'm more curious how those DJ T-shirts are selling. Could be an all time marketing blunder, those.

 

[Son of Cod]

What was the score yesterday?

Yep exactly, 3-0 win and you're still RATTLED.

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

Unless there is some hilarious in joke that I'm unaware of what gets considered as RATTLED these days is embarrassing.

If you hadn't have gone AWOL when you were down in the NL you'd know the rules.

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

The fact you adhere to 'the rules' says it all.

Just CHILL and be glad you aren't playing the Duck & Pond every other week, like we are

 

[WilsdenBantam]

Are your board usually quick to sack as it does look as if his time is up?

We don’t have a board, just a German who has no interest or knowledge of football and a very young CEO whose background is rugby. Hence why we are in the mess we are in. I wouldn’t say they are that quick to answer your question though.

 

[Son of Cod]

The fact you adhere to 'the rules' says it all.

Yes, it's almost as though we're all just taking the piss and it's not actually serious isn't it?

Sounds revolutionary on a football forum , can't see it catching on

Grimsby get battered everywhere they go.

 

[Indian Dan]

Well,they are fish!

Utterly tinpot using that on a non-rival rival.

All of the shitty modern songs that one is possibly the worst.

Yep it's between that 'watching super...' and 'is this a library?' for me.

On that subject, last season at Northampton away I had a guy behind me singing "doo do dooo football is a library" instead of in a library.

 

[Indian Dan]

‘You’re shit aaaaaah’

’And it’s (insert your club) we’re by far the greatest team blah, blah, blah’

 

[saddler78]

He came on for 20 minutes yesterday first time for 3 weeks where he has been benched and not used at all like i said rumours of a fall out with the manager already.

Reminds me of my mate who thought "we all hate Clayheads" was "we all hate playoffs".

You've had your day out, now fuck off home.

Again, not at all RATTLED.

“we all hate the playoffs” should be a chant for Mansfield tbh

So, who’s going to lose their unbeaten tag first?
