Just about to say it’s great to see Roberts back…proper baller.

[BigLeftToe]

Not great is it. Pugh our worst player by far, counted about 22 times he gave the ball away cheaply!

[BigLeftToe]

He left, Alexander came in and we drastically improved. Hardly a great loss was it?

Smoke and mirrors… don’t get too excited after playing two of the worst teams we’ve ever shared a pitch with. Wouldn’t read too much into it.

So just Boyce and Kouogun as central defensive options for the next three games. Down to the bare bones!

[BigLeftToe]

Hope there’s a recall clause with Evans now going to be out for 3 games.

[BigLeftToe]

No. I’m pretty she said that even if we get promoted or stay in this decision then we will stay full time but not remain part time whilst in this division but actually go full time when in the division above or even in this division, whilst at the same time not remaining part time but going full time, regardless or irrespective of the division we’ll be in.

Hope that settles the debate.

[BigLeftToe]

Not really had a look-in since lazily giving the ball away which led to the late Blyth equaliser.

Agreed. Looking at this season’s average attendances, we’d have the 6th highest in the National League. No reason those teams in the division above us are able to support full time squads whilst we couldn’t.

Looks like Scales was the only problem at Darlington then.

Boyce also dropped.

[BigLeftToe]

Not just performing poorly, Boyce will also be suspended soon after his red card, which makes this decision slightly baffling.

This has to be the worst performance of the season, no effort, no energy, no shots, and another appalling first half performance, no positives

Talking of no shots, has Whitehall actually had a shot on goal this calendar year? I’m honestly not sure he has.

Defending has been abysmal too, including the keeper. Kouogan needs to come back in for Boyce (which as I type this will be enforced as he’s just gone and gotten himself sent off).

What an utterly embarrassing night!!

Also doesn’t help that the players have effectively been told they’re getting a pay cut at the end of the season regardless of what division we’re in. Hardly going to inspire you is it!

Chance to win 3 times against the same team in one season tonight, I know it’s happened once before Who was it against. And have we done it anymore times?
Don’t expect to win tonight with a big crowd behind them.

Beat Millwall 3 times in our 08/09 promotion season. Dunno if it’s happened since.

Jarvis had a hard time whilst he was here but he always worked his socks off. Did really well in the NL last season in a relegation side and would be a lot better than what we currently have (in my opinion of course). Worth a punt as WG would say!

[BigLeftToe]

He was pants, so was Whitehall when he came on. Granted he was only on for 10 minutes but in those 10 minutes he still managed to look completely disinterested and spooned a pass straight out of the ground!

[BigLeftToe]

Rene has pretty much summed up the game perfectly above.

Comedy gold defending and awful finishing let us down last night…the bits in between weren’t actually that bad (compared to recent endeavours anyway).

Rene Artois

[BigLeftToe]

Thought we actually played some decent stuff in the first half last night and looked quite dangerous going forwards (especially down our left)…but our final ball/finishing was horrendous! Second half was just pure comedy gold defensively.

JD needs to turn this mess around quickly though or we’re going to get eaten up by the chasing pack below us and end up in a fight just to make the playoffs.

[BigLeftToe]

They also lost at home to us NI, couldn’t see that happening now!

Gardening leave. Appoint temp from within until season end. Chester closing the gap quickly and we aren’t closing it on Tamworth.

That really didn’t work out too well for us the last time we did that…ended up not winning any of our remaining games and getting relegated from League 1 after sacking McCall and putting Dawson in charge. That sacking is one of the biggest factors that contributed to our recent demise, in my opinion.

[BigLeftToe]

McAlinden played left wing-back for Wrexham.

[BigLeftToe]

We haven’t won from a losing position since the first game of the season. Doubt it’ll change today. Sigh.

[BigLeftToe]

How the hell was that perfectly legitimate goal given offside!? Just watched it back on the stream and there is absolutely zero reason for that being given. Robbed!

[BigLeftToe]

A 1-0 scrappy away win will do me.

[BigLeftToe]

Anyone at the start of the season would have told you 2 points-per-game is “promotion form”. Well that’s what we’re averaging. Yes performances have been pretty damn poor of late but if we finish the season on 92 points and don’t go up automatically, then hats off to the team who manages to accumulate more points than us!

Definitely the worst home performance of the season I’ve seen so far…we were miles off the pace and just never really looked like scoring.

I still don’t quite get what Clunan brings to the team. He’s lightweight, can’t tackle, can’t shoot and can’t run with the ball. He just about manages to play a sidewards pass and likes to get in the refs ear but that’s about it. Shame we don’t really have a holding midfielder to replace him with.

Still far and away our best keeper since Murphy.

Better than Daniels or Gilks? Not sure about that.

[BigLeftToe]

Scored an absolute belter from around 30 yards for Hereford vs Kings Lynn. It’s on YouTube if anyone cares to search for it.
