How bad can we play?

One of the first games I've watched on sky rather than gone to the game.
Truly, truly pathetic, I know its a crap league and our players are not that good but f**k me that is shit.

Something has too change, Parky has got to go. Our tactical ineptitude defies belief.

Great goal by Abbott

Not sure I have seen worse considering the players we have compared to the old div 3 days 30 years ago.

Maybe its getting a different view through the box but I just can't understand what Parky is trying to achieve, tactics wise. What was plan A, let alone B or C

Plan A, lump it forward. Nothing more apart from that.

Really? Up until Swindon's second goal the players were trying to keep the ball on the floor.

Fair enough once we were losing we kept hoofing it or sending in hopeful crosses, but before that we were passing around more than we have in a lot of games.

They just didn't have the ability to break Swindon down. The 4-5-1/4-3-3 formation didn't help.

We were trying to build from the back (especially from the goalkeeper) - but there were no options in midfield or out wide second half. So time after time we just ended up with fortune clipping in diagnol balls, and the ball then not sticking up front.

If we can see that they don't have the ability to break swindon down, then that should have been addressed. I'd rather we did set up to play long ball if that's our best option, given our lack of creativity.
