    Think positively! We're only 2 points from an automatic spot! ;)




    Alternatively, currently only 1 point above a relegation spot :(

    Maybe you think it was a good performance and that Mellor had an excellent game

    At work today, so couldn’t go. That sounds exactly like my summary of last week. Time for a change...

    AOC has played there before on many occasions, it's not like it would be alien to him.

    Thought we were poor again today, Grimsby deserved to win, what are we playing at with Henley on the left, Mellor shouldn’t even be on the bus !

    I thought you were telling me I need to demand wins.

    Bottom line, there are too many people saying 4 3 3 can't work because Bradford drew two games, or that Bowyer is pants because we didn't win the very first games of the season.

    I know City fans are incredibly boresome at times, but this must be a collective performance art piece, right?

    Both full backs were poor today.

    A strange ;) team selection once again, we thought last week was poor today's first half we offered nothing once again knocking it about in our own half but rarely troubling Grimsby.
    I'll have to wait and see a rerun of Hanson's header someone on the coach said it took a deflection, I thought O'Connor and Everton had done pretty well but from where we were sat it looked as if he'd been given space and a free header.

    Neither offer anything going forward. They make Stephen Darby look like Cafu.

    I couldn't agree more but as things stand, until we bring in some new players, we have to try and find solutions to the problem with what we have.

    442. Gibson or Ismail left, Scannell right, any of Devine, Akpan or even Henley next to Palmer, Donaldson and Vaughan up front, with longbridge at left back.

    I'm not saying itd tear up trees, but itd be balanced and everyone would know their role and be familiar with it.

    Even if he wanted to play that system, you wouldn't pick that side. Gibson behind the front 2, longbridge at left back, palmer, Devine and Akpan/Henley/Colville in midfield.

    My biggest gripe isnt the system. It's the abject lack of balance and players being asked to play in roles that dont suit.

    I thought both were poor at the back as well. Needless fouls and beaten a few times round the back.

    Tbf I think it’s what’d be produced if you gave Charlie a keyboard.
