    When the opposition is playing a high pressing game as Harrogate are, the defence needs an outlet to take advantage of the space created. And in this formation with little pace, there is nobody at the mo who can do that.

    Very poor first half. 2nd best all over, no pace going forward, can't keep the ball, Donaldson is worse than Guthrie. Only plus point if I had to give one is Watt has the potential to be a talent.

    We seem to be lacking width at the moment. Clarke needs to up his game, French concerns me a little. His first touch is poor. We need to get hold of midfield in the second half.

    His running on the ball and closing down has been good but then he just gives it away!

    Harrogate Town, as a club and a team, are currently everything we are not - dynamic, progressive and front foot forward.

    No idea on the shape tonight. It looks like so many square pegs in round holes and it’s showed in the performance

    We haven't had any shape from the start. Second best to everything. And let's be honest, if ANY of their players were to have joined us in the summer, we'd have been unimpressed.

    22-8 attempts on goal in their favour.
    9-3 on target.

    We've just been outplayed by Harrogate Town in the League. Let it wash over you.

    is this the first McCall team you have seen? it's what he does. unfortunately, football has moved on - McCall hasn't.

    Oh dear. We were second best everywhere. Couldn’t pass, couldn’t control the ball. Dire!

    The midfield.

    We just don’t have the composure and ability to boss that area.

    Very disappointing in the end.

    No, no... Bird is the word;)

    Which is what this side needs to be given, or flipped -- what the heck is the right idiomatic expression? -- after that performance. Grump. Back to the far more enjoyable job of cleaning my oven.
