    Right ok, I had hoped for a different formation and a couple of different players, GB wants to give it another go, so he can have another go. If we don’t get a good result then he will need to answer all the questions.

    This division lacks quality in finishing. If our stokers can produce some quality we should in theory do well. We need service into the front two. Can’t see that coming from Gibson and Doyle unfortunately

    Whilst disappointed in the formation it’s more about individual players performance. We are capable of beating Grimsby whatever formation

    For the first three league fixtures of this season we have a golden opportunity to hit the reset button and create a positive vibe going forwards, if we put in three disappointing performances the negative atmosphere will return and the pressure could just build and build. Don't throw this chance away.

    Scannell apart, very defensive looking bench. Highlights how much we still need to do in bringing reinforcements and quality in

    Of course it is but it’s not the formation that counts it’s hiw players perform

    We couldn't beat Cambridge when they had 10 men with that team.... Lets hope something has changed over the last 7 days

    You might be right but there could be a bit more space today with Grimsby being at home and needing to attack more

    This set up with three strikers and no reserve forward on the bench is a "must' score line up. If they fail then lots of questions will arise.

    Not really.

    Managers tend to stick with what they're trying to give it a chance to work.

    I'm not surprised it's the same as last week.

    My problem goes back to last season when he consistently picked weak teams then, same has continued this season rewarding a system that flopped so disappointingly.
