    Had 3 Newcastle fans behind us in the NW corner. They enjoyed the banter with City fans before the cup game, so came down for this. Poor buggers.

    That was shit. Fair play to Stevenage for perfectly executing their game plan, they win their game in hand they go a point behind us.
    Only ourselves to blame, didn't make any attempt to outplay the opposition for most of the game, just aimless punts upfield against a team that realises a physical battle. Not what I expect to see from a team third in the table.
    If we want an my success via the playoffs we're gonna have to play level or two above what we saw today.

    Losing Bobby so early really affected us, but the Baldini game plan was always going to be a challenge against their defence.

    Very poor decision making in the final third, although I couldn't see any reason to disallow our goal.

    If we play them again this season, then their number 10 needs to watch out for Curtis Tilt. He'll not forget that dirty kick.

    Expected this result

    Not sure we're next 3 points coming from

    Alexander to blame and those who took part in January recruitment.

    Got rid of proven city hero's

    Not settled the squad with his changes

    Same found out tactics and hoof

    Captain that is poor

    Ashby picked up an injury against Wycombe, it was why he was subbed at the end of the game.

    If the season started now I'd be worried, and if we do not go up this season I will be worried...

    Awful game against an awful opponent who know exactly how to play their brand.

    Really weird from GA today setup wise and subs wise. Dont think the lads selected did too much anyways. Really weird game, no idea why we seemed determined to walk it in today rather than having a pop?

    Tbf given how poor Ethan and Mullin have been i could see why

    Transfer committee need to pull their collective weight far better come summer. Brad and Andy were far better than the nonentity dross loaned in to replace them, the impact on team spirit too.

    Better than anything you
    That’s the difference between a young keeper who can get down quickly and an aged one who can’t ? .

    First post for a while for me, but that was awful
    We all knew how they would play and how they might score, except Graham Alexander
    He got everything wrong today
    That defeats is on him Wrong tactics and wrong player selection
    Get Max Power off those set pieces as well
    Worse than Smallwood and that takes some doing
