Every team (well almost) concedes goals. We can't draw every game 0-0! And we can't score goals so therefore we only need to concede one to lose!

As we all predicted before a ball was kicked, we have no strikers and we can't score goals, nailed on to lose more than we win.

 

One good thing about the lad from radio he really puts it to McCall in the post match interviews. Let’s hope he does tonight

 

Is Rupp so stupid he can't see what's happening to his investment, probably not . You don't make the money he has by being stupid, but he has some right stupid people running his sideshow for him, what a bloody mess.

 

Frigging ifollow says the show has ended part way through the interview. Caps off a $hite night really.

 

Wouldn’t give him 18 minutes.

 

18 months for Stuart? Absolute no thank you. I'm all for a long term plan and consistency but we've got no plan, no leadership and there is no point sticking with what is not working just for the sake of consistency.

 

What do you expect from Width of a post? They are all in the clubs back pocket. If it is Sparks tomorrow as CEO watch all them tweeting how it’s a great move by the club etc. It’s sickening

 

Rupp, Rhodes, Sparks, McCall, Black and our so called professional footballers - you are an embarrassment to the club, the fans and most of all to yourselves!!
There, I feel a little better now - but not a lot

 

2 shots on target again just like at Salford . It’s just not good enough

 

With regards the free kick that lead to their goal when was the last time we saw a delivery like that which said get your head on the end of this, I know the old grey matter isn't as good as it was but I cant recall a resent situation where a ball was delivered into the opposition box with that sort of accuracy for their 6"5' central defender to head home.

 

Why are people asking for 4-4-2 HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Make your minds up!!! Who are these wingers we are expecting to play???

 

You are old fashioned, You do not need 2 wingers to play 4-4-2, Usually teams just play with one or use it as an extra midfielder to tuck in especially away, 4-3-3 is also a variation that most top sides use

 

Evan's didn't look fit on Saturday, the build up to their third goal the lad who scored left him for dead, he was struggling to get anywhere near him.

3-0 Leyton Orient.

We are bad away from home, squads clearly not fit and too paper thin. Hopefully can get through this game with no further injuries. McCall dismissing the free agent market today. Seems clear we are running at absolute minimum until either Covid ends or a new CEO is in

 

I think we should go for a 2-0 loss and celebrate what a stunningly fantastic improvement that is from saturday.

 

Edited for accuracy

 

Knowing our players they would duck

 

I'll agree with the principle here, Bolton played Salford before us and played a flatback 4 with a very rigid midfield infront of them. Salford couldn't break them down and by the end Bolton had given them a football lesson.
Saturday for us was another example where either the players aren't listening to McCall or hes playing players out of position which leaves them unsure of who is supposed to do what. It looked like the latter in the first half, something i've seen countless times this season.
Changing two or three players at half time on a regular basis shows there are fundamental problems in your tactical approach. No surprise when Scales came on in midfield there wasn't the time and space available to Salford as they'd had in the first half.
