Away vs Macclesfield, Sat 30 Nov 2019

We are! If we were a promotion seeking side we would be winning.

 

Painful to watch. Brainless performance. I know its league 2 and the pitch ain't great, but the amount of miscontrol, poor passes, poor cross, shocking challenge for the penalty, missing that sitter, taking a stupid quick free kick when you have one from 20 yards in the last few minutes, bringing Jermaine Anderson on when you need a winner.

Soul destroying stuff

 

Maccy down to ten men so can City manage to get their second shot on target in the second half.

Someone somewhere give it a go?

You just never know, it might go in.

 

Shooting practice needed in next week training sessions
16 shots 2 on target
Same problem as last season
Bringing Anderson and Akpan on tells us GB
Wanted to protect the point away at Macclesfield
REALLY !!!!!!!!!!

 

"Just a bad day at the office" Again!!!!!!!!!!!

 

With the exception of a standard set piece goal, everything about that performance was brain dead.

 

Pritchard has really gone off the boil. Had high hopes for him at the beginning of the season.

 

Bowyer Out

 

We're still 7th with a two point cushion, five of the teams above us have played a game more than us, we're one week closer to having Palmer and Donaldson back from injury. For me we need to get to the transfer window still in the top 7, hopefully then most of the injuries will have cleared up and our destiny is in our own hands.

 

Shocking, embarrassing result today, get a grip, get some help GB or go...

 

One win all month....

 

Absolutely shocking performance, bowyer got it wrong yet again.

2 chances all game against a limited side like these is unacceptable. I'm really losing patience with him and his negative, boring football.

 

It's like the inverse of last season. Decent start then crap until the new year.

Things need to improve!

 

Play like that much more and we wont even make the play offs utter shite

 

Or if you are looking at league form then what you actually mean is one win, one draw and one loss.

 

When do we ever come up with a real finish to a game ? a suprise last minute winner to steal the points ? We never do ..this squad is average at best. Two or three stand out names but unable to make the difference when they should. We were deservedly relegated last season when GB really got a "free hit" yet failed to draw anything more out of the players as defeats continued to rack up.

I think given the state of this league we recruited players in the summer able to do better in basement division ? Yet they do they have the look of a team that will go up in May not to me ?. Maybe the message needs to change and for that we may have to change the messenger ?

Has this group gone as far as it can under GB and Drury ? Sadly I am beginning to conclude it has. Rupp & Rhodes need to take a serious look at this now and make a decision ahead of the transfer window in January. We definitley need to bring in a Striker ! and then look to get some of these players out and just re-energise things. Are GB and Drury to be trusted as the two to preside over things much longer ?

 

Good summarising by Gary Jones. He knows, like the rest of us, that Vaughan cuts a frustrated figure in the preferred formation of Bowyer.

Still, talk of sacking a manager who has his team in the play offs is nonsense..oh wait, we have recent form for that under Rupp

 

Agree, I think Pritchard is one of those players that will perform when things are all rosy, not one you’d call upon when we need to grind out results in the bleak mid winter

 

Bang average mid table form. For a side with the biggest budget in the league, most likely.

It's not just the results, it's the awful, dreary, cautious performances and brainless tactics
