    We simply do not pass the ball to each other. It’s terrible to watch, today we played 2/3 thru balls on the deck in 90 minutes and that is actually an improvement, another year in Lesgue 1 beckons


    It's difficult to judge todays performance with the weather playing a factor but with Jones return Gillesphrey looked far better in the left of the three and the two wing backs got forward, with Tyreece Campbell creating our best chance and putting a shift in when defending.

    NJ doesn't even mention Asiimwe at all as a right wing back option, has he forgotten about him, or is he another player like Taylor that NJ will ignore for some reason?

    We got out of the game what we set out too do not concede. IMO 

    The group as whole though if they can't adjust to a few mm of water were knackered. The number of under hit passes was criminal. Two teams going through the motions it looked. 

    By the way our long throw isn’t long and has the biggest time elapse ever between leaving the thrower and landing

    An away point is always good but seems underwhelming following a disastrous home defeat on Tuesday.

    What does this mean ?
    It means we are shit and Leaburn is also shit, Mr clever. 
    I don't think anyone was trying to be smart Buttle, it was a genuine inquiry because to sounded like you were there and saw something off camera, so were you there and what did you pick upon ? 

    It certainly seems they were. Leaburn was laughing at full time when being criticised. That's what I'm getting at. He thinks he's the bollocks but is proving to be a shit footballer who doesn't want to play for us.
    Where you there mate, I didn't see that or hear the criticism, not saying you are wrong at all but shocked if Leaburn is responding like that. 
    Yes mate. We were both there and he laughed at the criticism.  Seems to think he's something special. But believe me. He's not.
    So this “criticism” . Would it have been criticism of the “ “*** off, Lesburn you lazy **** “ type? See, I can’t quite imagine it was anything else. So how else do you expect a 20 year old to “react”? Come over and humbly ask you for advice ? 
    Yes but it's alright to call Ahadme a useless see you next Tuesday isn't it.
    No. It’s not. Funny question. 
  • The only good thing about that was listening to well informed and articulate commentator who knew when to speak and when to keep quiet. 

    Otherwise utter shite with our brand being slightly less smelly than theirs.  We were better than Tuesday in that we had some width but that’s like saying a kick in the nuts is better than a poke in the eye. Fast approaching “can’t be bothered anymore”. 

    If Ahadme is a league 1 standard striker, I am the Archbishop of Canterbury. 
    Were you comparing you washing powder a  Lincoln fan’s?
  • The other thing mentioned by the commentator was TC leaning back to shoot following one of our better moves.  Needless to say the ball was hoisted skyward.  Why on Earth do players do this?
    Because they are badly placed for the shot. By the time they actually connect with the ball they are too far away and so have to stretch and lean back. Most often it’s due to bad anticipation of the angle and speed of the ball. 
  • must be something wrong with me as I quite enjoyed the game, our defence was much better but we still can't pass to one of our own which is nothing new, but a point away is not that bad.

    I think we should concentrate on the positives. It's a point gained in our battle against relegation.

    Completely agree.

    There must be something wrong with you. ;-)

    Leaburn lost a hamstring tendon didn't he? It's a massive injury, one that some don't recover from. The question was whether he'd return the same player - as sad as it is, as of now, he hasn't.

    Not really when loads of our fans do it and nobody moans about it.

    What was this ’criticism’?
    Was there a live on pitch interview over the tannoy, or are you referring to booing?

    It was the strong Wind mate, not rain which all players are used to since if from the UK.

    FAO….Bart.
    I was given to understand that you were going to Weatherspoons after the game…..I made my way there for a meet up but there was no sign of you or any of the other folk from CL….where did you all end up?

    To be honest, after Tuesday, I would prioritise defending if I was Jones. We did that ok. There were one or two defensive passes that just about made it which should have been better but they were as toothless as us. We do have trouble creating and have done all season. Teams know this and they ensure they always have defenders behind the ball as this stops us pretty effectively. Then they rely on defensive errors and we didn't have any big ones today unusually. Players like TC and Small are our main ways of addressing this offensive issue and indeed Small got behind them at the end. We need to address this in January but it will probably be too late by then.

    Positives and there were some were Jones being back. The defence looks better with him in it. Terry Taylor looked decent too. I know people get frustrated with Anderson but he does a job with his energy and we are better when he plays.

    Not to mention the psychological effect on a young player of such a serious injury. Before the injury he had an excellent career ahead of him but there must be doubts in his mind,  especially if he is getting dogs abuse, and playing in a team which has lost its way.

    I absolutely take my hat off and bow my head to anyone who travelled to that today, all the ingredients of an awful day. 

    The positives are, we didn't concede. We were playing Lincoln at a good time to be playing them as they were trying not to lose almost as badly as we were trying to take as many touches as possible when in the opposition box or in a position to deliver a ball. 

    Great, and genuinely I'm delighted we didn't concede. That was a very winnable game but with whatever we are trying with the midfield we will never create enough chances for any of our capable forwards to turn these games into wins. Taylor again makes himself undroppable for his delivery, our fault for not attacking a couple of balls into their box better, and I mean showing a desire to meet the ball aggressively. 

    Referee was our third shit one in a row in the league. But not mega shit just division 3 shit. Conditions actually helped second half as a lot of our normally overcooked balls held up but that was a thoroughly forgettable game. I do not want us sacking another manager however I would love to be able to work out what we are about and what our style is.

    It was a genuine question. I’m confident that I was not the only one that didn’t get the meaning of your post. Sorry it seemed to rattle your cage.

    Seem to recall his Dad found himself in a similar situation...

    I thought the ref had a good game.....and so did the one on Tuesday evening. Certainly not whistle happy & happy to let things go.

    Agree about the ref today. A few soft fouls for either side, but that's the game today. 

    Didn't make any controversial decisions, although that was mainly because nothing much actually happened.

    Whatever job Anderson does, it’s not a good one. He’s currently nowhere near good enough for league 1, let alone a league 1 team with promotion aspirations

    Definitely looking lately like he thinks he’s better than us, and expects to be away from us come January, must say if he wants away fu*k him, he’s not a patch on his dad 
    I love the way we can interpret people’s thoughts based on watching them play football, and then criticise them for those thoughts…

    or are you just making shit up and then posting it?

    That's good enough for me. I don't have any insider knowledge but there is no smoke without fire and am wondering if a gentlemen's agreement has already been done for a move in January, it would explain the top heavy nature of out front seven, also Leaburn's performances and his reaction today. 
    Make shit up and post it.
