    If he had 8 legs he might have scored, or is that just an octopus,

    He is in the right place to miss if you get my meaning . All season we see balls fly across the box or drop in the 6 yard box and no one is near it. Yet Smith is and will keep getting in the positions. Yes the goals haven’t flowed but like others have said I think we have a player there.

    I didn't realise that Kavanagh is younger than Pointon

    I think he is good. I don’t think any of the goals that have been scored against us could have been prevented, in fact it could have been more.

    No, the sponsors gave it to Kavanagh, as did Simon Parker. The Twitter vote gave it to Pointon.

    I commented about the kid Heath Richardson getting brought back from Cleethorpes Town with immediate effect, that may have been a clue that the kid might have gained a little experienced being on the bench, its not as if we have anything to play for, get em blooded and lets see how the face up to mens football.

    I agree.
    Play football for yourself your bound to score loads of goals.
    The amount of times though he could have passed and hasn't that have led to him either missing or losing the ball is too much imo.
    He constantly berates his team mates and is a miserable git when he scores.
    The TEAM plays better without him.
    A player with the mobility of Smith with more confidence and attitude is what we need.

    We can debate the Cook situation till the cows come home, without doubt defenders don't like pace or a technically gifted player unfortunately at our level you rarely get a player with both.
    I'd argue defenders also don't like a lad who who can stick the ball in the net on a regular basis, and for all the negatives that can be laid at Cooks door he does exactly that, how many times have we heard stop Cook and you stop Bradford City a bit of a back handed complement.
    I don't see why as a team we can't combine both in the same team, unfortunately with regards Bradford City if things are going well in the first few minutes players take that easy option, it was far from a matter just of hitting it long under Hughes, it was a massive surprise to most why after getting us into a play off semi final he ripped the blue print up and took a completely different route.

    Are you telling me that Smith is a better hold up player than Cook?

    If not, I don't understand the point.

    At the beginning of the season I said that I would place a £2 bet on whatever @The Voice@The Voice predicts as the score with any winnings (hahaha) being donated to the Burns Unit .
    Not doing particularly well ATM.

    Will the owner’s statement appease the protestors and act as a rallying call to the side.

    or will the players not even care?

    city 0 - 2 Tranmere I’ll go for. Absolute shambles at Harrogate.

    Another heavy defeat. Tranmere are no mugs and have got some decent results against good sides this season

    Should be looking forward to enjoying the football with the family today, but instead we’ve all decided to stay at home. Sad that it’s come to this.

    After giving it the big one all week, GA still puts out absolute crap tactics and lineups

    Season is done.
    Every team selection now is experimental.
    Walker in midfield with Smallwood.
    Pointon right side of Smith.
    Kavanagh left.
    I won't be shocked if Bobby doesn't do anything of note today, also Smith missing a sitter.
    Glad Kavanagh is back in as he gives us energy up top.
    Richards and Halliday the wing backs again so don't expect much from out wide.
    Depressing times.
