    I thought Taylor played alright, tried to use the ball at times on a difficult pitch. Tough when your first game is coming into a struggling side but he applied himself well enough.

    He wasn't stand out given what a poor game it was, busy lets say,
    Whats annoying is I watched the first 20 or so minutes of the Eastleigh/Crewe game and Crewe made football look so easy supporting the man with the ball by making space for him to play a pass, and going forward in numbers, when was the last time we had 4/5 men in and around the box.
    As a team we seem to be frightened of committing men forward and if we hope to be serious promotion hopefuls we need to posses that in the team.
    I haven't heard Bowyers post match interview but if he can say that was anywhere near the level required for a serious promotion push I'll start wondering about him management skills.

    God thats a frightening thoughtt mate, a guy who's been out for 2 years or so gets his first full opertunity to start and he's head and shoulders our best player.

    I think it certainly highlights the poor decision to offer out contracts to two central midfielders who are now 6th and 7th choice.

    Beware the open terrace, been a couple of times, once it was freeeeezing! Snow round the pitch and Little David brown scoring the winner from a goalkeeper howler. Also remember a peter thorne brace getting us a win there too early on one season.

    We are actually 4th Ronnie. A defeat for our understrength side last night does not worry me one bit.

    So no, I dont see what you see

    Confirmed.

    Think it's likely to be called off.. glad it's an earlier inspection for everyone to know what's what.

    I don't need to make excuses I'm fully behind Bowyer, of course players want to put Tuesdays defeat behind them by winning I'm just suggesting a postponement wouldn't be bad with the players we have out injured, nothing more nothing less, but you carry on reading what you want into a easily understood post to most, Mr Negative ;).

    Likely an early inspection will mean many folk won’t get out of a day round the shops with the mrs. Or a trip to Ikea for the really lucky ones. Awfully considerate of them.

    I think where other teams have disappeared mid season, all results are expunged.

    Their results would be wiped out if they went bust or it would be massively unfair on any team that hasn't played them.

    Seems strike might be have been down to them not being insured as the BBC are now reporting that their players have been advised not to play or train as they aren't insured. Things looking very ominous for them if the club aren't paying their insurance, feel very sorry for their players & staff especially with Christmas around the corner and they won't be able to sign for another club until January unless they go into non-league.

    I would suggest some caution is exercised, with regard to any travel arrangements, in respect of the revised date. Given the perilous state that Macclesfield Town Football Club is currently in, there is good reason not to commit to any non-refundable bookings in respect of the new date.

    What a farce !!! Why didn’t the clubs just wait until after last nights match before rearranging the game in the first place ?

    I know people who have booked a hotel next Tuesday and can’t get a refund !!!
