Including the owner
He made a few first half.
he is touring the Galaxy with his dad Dm66.
Well when you are one goal behind and you are crossing the ball to Scrimshaw and Hallam at height I don’t think we are going to score many goals that way, their goal was a good bit of play but my minor gripe was they took the throw in 3 or 4 yards nearer our goal than from where the ball went out, another below average home performance, even good teams have off days, we have off days every home game because Port Vale were that comfortable only the header cleared off the line really troubled them, wasn’t impressed with the referee either he was giving them the free kicks for the slightest touch but we were relying on the lino for ours.
in Spain I think they call him or her the King of the game or match.
Aren’t you three days behind with that Burny.
Someone near me was on about the kits clashing last week but when all blue and all black it does confuse us older generation
Neil Cox “We knew they would change at half time; we had done our homework and we’ve seen that they push everybody forward. We had to be ready for it and I thought we were, but we showed a little bit of inexperience when we should have just seen it out. It feels like a loss, but we would have taken a draw after last week’s result. However, we are disappointed.”
We never learn, just keep going and put them on the back foot, we can’t sit back for 45 minutes without conceding, it was a great effort but we aren’t in winning form or confidence, Neil you got the first half right but you created pressure in the second half, if they want to get back in the game don’t give them encouragement.
Could Rory have done better with the first goal
With those marks how didn’t we get hammered, sounds like all the team played very poor.
From what I hear we dominated the first half and could have been out of site, but second half we just sat back with 10 players in the area absorbing pressure then Beestin made a silly area when he could have cleared the ball and like usual conceded and in typical Iron style gave another away with the last kick.
I would like to know what is ever said at halftime because it rarely works.1 user thanked author for this post.
With Manny back on Saturday and a much more solid back “five” a win will stop a lot of this critism a loss is likely to intensify it. Still not sure how we will score a goal though unless we are fortunate enough to get a penalty.
just remember, penalties for, sending offs against us and late winners don’t happen on a regular occasion, so 2 penalties is our quota for this season and a injury time equalizer will probably be has near to a winner for this season, and a player getting a red card against us is now even rarer than the other two, the last time was at the end of the game and we had one sent off as well.
“Yes the team isn’t the best at present but I wonder how they’d react to positive crowd getting behind them.”
Well here’s your answer to that question quoting Mark Lillis from the OWS:-
“The fans have been unbelievable this season.”
“Like I said after the game, it was unacceptable”Anything else you need help with?
our team isn’t the best at present, but I wonder what would happen if they let the shackles off and let them go out and attack teams for 90 minutes and TRY TO SCORE SOME GOALS instead of trying to contain the opponents hoping for a lucky break and do the impossible and try to keep a clean sheet.
Is he attending?
True.
but we have gone from one extreme to the other over the last 3 and a bit seasons, the Chairman disappears from the media and I haven’t seen him about at home games either, so don’t know if he comes to games or not.but it doesn’t matter how much you dress it up UTI99 the club is a shambles, we haven’t scored more than one goal in a game in the last 14 games, we were promised attacking football this season but do to our usual injuries we have been playing with 5 at the back and our best young prospects either unused subs or not in the squad, yet loanees don’t seem to be of the quality of other clubs in the divisions loanees.
hence after a 4 game unbeaten run we leave our young guns out who had beat Tranmere to put players in the team who haven’t exactly set the place alight and we then play another midfielder out of position and leave our biggest goal threat on the bench and play a loan striker upfront who is 6 inches smaller than their central defence and again for around the 10th time this year we haven’t had a shot on target.
The difference BLT was we did our homework on them and had a game plan and set up to stop them scoring but I think they just came here to win the game.

“Lillis needs putting out to pasture, completely inept, closely followed by Cox.”
I wish we had Mark Lillis and Neil Cox on the pitch, because Exeter then would have to do their homework on us especially how to stop Lillis who was a fantastic player.
but then again Burny you won’t have seen him play, way before your time.
When you set up like the away team in a home game and play a 5ft 8 in striker on his own upfront and our most liable goal scorer on the bench because you have been doing your homework on a certain player you can understand why we have only scored 4 goals.
At home it should have been Exeter doing there homework on us, I bet they never bothered.
Matt was going to move it the other week, same as sorting the joker, I will send him a message.

On iOS on the keyboard press the blue enter key and that saves it or it did for me, so possibly on Android it will as well, but doesn’t work on my laptop.

At the moment I am more worried about ours.

Words fail me.
it was like watching a Alan Knill team the way they passed it about across the back side to side going nowhere then hoofing it upfield to a striker who is small and up there on his own.
it took us over 75 minutes before we put any real pressure on their goal but that only last 2 minutes, there was no urgency in the play and too much tip tapping and losing it, we got out muscled all over the pitch and only 2 efforts on target and not sure whether the first was a cross or a shot, pathetic second half and now we are starting to concede a few we still haven’t sorted more than one in a game.
what happened to the 4 4 2 attacking football we still aren’t seeing it and pointless when you are 3 goals down.2 users thanked author for this post.
I’ve seen him at the 3 league games but not at the Man City game, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t there.
I would like to know how we have so many injuries compared to other clubs who have possibly a couple for two seasons in a row.
September 5, 2021 at 11:36 am in reply to: At what point do we consider the manager is the problem? #213226his comments last night summed it up, we have looked at Northampton twice and know what they are going to do in the first 20 minutes and we set up to counteract it, if we were a good side we would be set up for them to counteract us rather than worry about the opposition all the time, can’t remember how many times since Neil has been here we haven’t had a shot on target but it must near or into double figures, when was the last time anyone got sent off against us when it mattered, the last one was nearly 2 years ago in the last minute of injury time v Port Vale.

Perry, Bunn and Scrimshaw were only training for one day said Cox, not sure why Pugh and O’Malley not playing
Chris Taylor the footballer with teflon boots, he could never keep on his feet.
possibly the intention is to let Gallimore and Jessop go out on loan to get more experience at non league level.
We are saving Hallam for next season and giving him this season to get fit
