    Full of his cliches as usual. He was more "comfortable" with the performance tonight than against Shrewsbury or Barnsley (lol). Didsnt say a word about killa

    Half listened so probably shouldn't comment, but sounded like 'Happy with the performance, disappointed we didn't take our chances' about sums it up.

    I don't understand what he's done. Bloody annoying though. Treat the guy with respect or tell us what he's done wrong.

    Decent.

    Colville looks young. About 19. 5’10, light coloured hair, slight frame but my Mrs definitely would.

    McGowan. Older. Dark, tall, bout 6’1, strapping thighs. My Mrs definitely would.

    How can anyone be happy with the performance
    We played Macclesfield ffs last season they were in the National league
    Football is a very simple game you put the ball in the net to win matches
    Think we are still in pre season mode and will be till January

    Simply not good enough. No excuses. We’ve reverted to 16-17 City where we can’t score goals! It’s ealrly in the season, but when do you become concerned? I can’t say i’m confident in Collins’ abilities...hoping i’m wrong!

    Collins saying he "left it up to the lads" to decide on penalty takers says it all really. Total amateurs

    It's a shit result tonight, don't dress it up any other way. Pretty strong line up as well. But yes, there's always saturday, lets see how the Southend game goes. 3 games into the first 10 that give us a clearer idea of where we are at.

    I didn't get the sense we were taking preseason seriously, and now we're happy just to be able to pass the ball.

    Our standards must be stupidly low if 'playing well' against the worst side in the EFL who lost both their opening games is a worthwhile positive.

    Playing well is irrelevant.

    Scoring goals and winning games, way more important.

    Imagine Steve Evans or Phil Parkinson reacting to that result today.

    I don't think they would be touring the merits, but sounding very disappointed or angry.

    Double training required, not pats on the back for being able to compete.

    Where is the desire?

    What makes you think a 32 year old who’s never managed and was playing part time at Halifax until the summer isn’t good enough?

    **so funny

    Tell me where I have not seen what is in front of me?

    Read my comments after the Barnsley game and you will see I said we were second best and were some way off being a settled side.

    As for tonight I just saw comments on here and BBC stats so have no real idea how we actually played.

    I have seen us murder teams and lose and vice versa over the years. I can deal with it after all its only football.

    I'm concerned now but the benchmark for me has always been 10 games in.

    We’ve had it worse than this Jon. At least we still have a club to support.

    Anyone know the formation tonight?

    Collins needs to stay out of the media. Stating a defeat would be unacceptable, would only fuel Macclesfield and put unnecessary pressure on us.

    Just shows he isn't a manager, may as well just leave it upto the lads to decide who subs themselves off.
