    You're assuming ours will come home. I think they've fecked off to Northallerton or somewhere.

    Sutton and Cooke in a 4-4-2 will not get you promotion.

    This isn't an issue with the system. Its largely down to quality and possibly confidence, but even more so, look at the at the difference in desire to compete off the ball. Watch the 50/50s, the difference in pressing, winning headers etc

    Vernham. Did nowt second half.

    Formation change apparently. 3-5-2 now.

    Feeling less confident after the start to this half. Feels more like the last match.

    Back to normal in this second half. Absolutely turgid stuff.

    Please just give the ball to Cooke.

    Literally the only player who is getting his head up, looking forwards and trying to make something happen.

    Awful refereeing. How did Cooke give away a foul there?

    Been impressed with the Vale commentators. Easy listening.

    Agree. No hyperbole, just reasonable commentary of whats happening.

    No difference in quality between the sides on the ball. But they've defended like they gave a shit, and we haven't.

    Well this hasn't worked. No idea how we're trying to score.

    Been awful. Evans, Watt hone awol. Sutton fecked off to the right side and out of the game.

    All the opportunity was on the side in the first half of the first half. Since Evans came on weve just become narrower and narrower and we've literally choked the life out of ourselves.

    Last Four games have been nothing short of clueless and totally inept.
    Ryan talks the talk but he's got one hell of a job on his hands.
    Shocking performance again.

    I just don't think some of these players are good enough. Particularly the defence.
