    So we go to a team low in confidence and looking a fragile outfit and match them. Bonkers management.
    Will be a very interesting January transfer window

    I don't know the full details of our injuries but what we do know is that some of the players we brought in this season have not had the best records with regards past injuries but someone on the footballing side of our club physios, conditioning coach etc must have thought they were manageable, maybe unlucky was not the right word but until we see these players get game time then we wont know what they have to offer with regards taking the chance on signing them.

    Where did I suggest Loyal was stupid,

    I'm optimistic we can beat Accrington and get a win at Morecambe.

    The conundrum we have is nearly every team want it more, they mostly look quicker fitter and more technical than most of our players

    We suffer every year from injuries, match fitness, illness in squad, last into most 50/50s we lack being able to manage passages of play ,we look bereft of any cohesive patterns , we struggle in every formation and every squad looks miles off no matter the manager.

    until the cycle of poor recruitment poor planning and poor leadership stops we will continue
    To only have the identity of making good players shit and good managers even shitter

    Yes the question should also be asked of who was supposed to mark the lad who scored, maybe playing a back three they weren't sure of who was picking who up especially when their keeper also joined in the fun, but IMO Walker has to do better.

    I wonder how many other teams would have gone to Colchester and played so negatively from the off. At least we should recognise the performance from the ref. He was probably mom today.

    I wonder how many promotion chasing teams would go to a team languishing in the relegation zone and played like they were playing man city

    It's like groundhog day season in season out. The answer is whole sale change from top to bottom. But it's not an easy answer to fin a solution to.

    Haven't read everything but.... fookin needless corner conceded led to the equaliser.
    Walker should have caught that ball!

    Why do you expect it to be interesting? I expect nothing different to previous. Though we might go back an pay a fee for Kurtis Guthrie.

    Alexander seems to have a bout of the Mark Hughes syndrome finishing the season so well, the new season comes and instead of building on that platform he thinks playing a back 3 is the way to go bringing in players who he says prefer that formation,
    We've seen little with regards any sort of consistency never mind entertainment, I'm as frustrated as any other City supporter but he has this season to get us out of this division, I say that because unless the club are going to dismiss him before the transfer window there's no point IMO and like it or not even with the stuff that's been served up were still very much in the mix for at least a play off, not I'm not happy that it might have to be the lottery that we know the play offs can be but for me he has this season.

    Some believe it is, get rid of Rupp, Sparks, Gent, Sharp and Alexander and his backroom staff all will be well with a new owner with brass, just ask Carlisle fans.

    I don’t think GA will be here for the January transfer window unless god decides to shine on is in the next few weeks and over rule GAs decisions- he’s lost the dressing room and lost his mind
