    Smallwood is too non proactive Cook is ill or something and our defence looked very poor. I really dislike watching us when we have to do something.

    Just play a few of the kids, so we can have something to get behind at least. Despite what a few on here say we aren’t good enough for the playoffs and never were, it is similar to last season when people kept getting their hopes up for top 3. We’ve been here all season for a reason.

    Bad night at the office absolutely terrible all over the park tonight.
    FGR deserved the three points no doubt about it defending was spot on unlike ours.

    Wowser. Over reaction or are we genuinely so poor? GA needs to get shut of as many of this group as possible. The lethargy is toxic. But will he have a budget for next season? Not on this showing.

    Well, I do think there should have been a message early on not to loft the ball at Andy Cook. Wright and Odour to run at them, get the ball in the box. Andy Cook to look to spin his defender and not worry about holding (or attempting) to hold the ball up.

    Easy for me to say quaffing beers, but it looked pretty obvious that the high ball was ineffective.

    Only the second time I've ever predicted a City defeat and Ii still can't get it right. The first time was the Accrington game. My optimism has gone. I'm done. I will not be following another season in League 2.

    Didn't look like a relegation side, I've seen a fair bit of them since Cotterill took over and they.play some decent stuff.

    That was shockingly bad! If I was Alexander they would be running everyday, all day, double sessions, till the end of the season. Slow, total lack of intensity and lazy football. Play offs my arse absolute sh*t show forget renewal at 250 it's just not worth it!

    That was a lot of huff and puff, but zero end product. We don’t have a midfield. We don’t have a mobile striker. It’s no wonder we can’t win games.

    I’m struggling to think of anything positive. Tompkinson maybe. I think he’s improved a lot. I commend GA on going for broke, but he can only bring on players who are pretty much like for like. Kavanagh doesn’t seem to have any tactical awareness. Smith is a 1 in 10 goal striker. Chapman showboats but often plays the wrong balls. I’d have brought on Wilson (if he was on the bench) because he looks like a totally chaotic player who might have got us a penalty.

    FGR looked decent. Full of running, stuff have scored at least two more.

    Why does Smallwood just kick the ball when he isn’t even looking up or towards a player

    Mine too mate.
    Shit show from the boardroom downwards.
    However the usual 'Ultras' will be on soon telling us that they will re-new and clap harder next season.
    That way we will achieve our climb up the football pyramid.

    Usual performance and result at home to a pub side.

    That Smith miss was absolutely criminal.

    On the bright side, the chances of me getting a Harrogate ticket must have improved. See you all on Saturday for Mansfield. Hope they play better though.
