Same old same old. Not enough squad depth to be able to hold onto games2

As above. Not enough squad depth or quality to finish teams off. Thank you Douchebag you tight arse turd skinner.0

Need to score more goals.0

A point at Accrington is not to be sniffed at , what a season lies ahead , such joy.
Can he play can he play,how did he play ?6 -
Worse than that is we can't actually expect much more with how small our squad isup_the_valley said:This is how bad it's become. Bloody Accrington Stanley.

Wasn't there so can't know for sure.
But two subs made in the 73rd and 90th minute doesn't seem enough for me really. You have Dijksteel on the bench that's able to make an impact for a tiring player but doesn't seem to want to play him.1 -
Not there. Followed here and on Twitter. Don’t think Bowyer makes the most of substituting tired legs...0

A point is a point but Accrington Stanley ffs.0

He's proving to be more reactive than proactive. It's a trait the last managers have had, and it's not gone wellSELR_addicks said:Wasn't there so can't know for sure.

Still 5th /s4

We just about deserved a point from that. We were awful. Long ball after long ball and didn't even try to play any football or counter with any urgency. Accrington dominated for the last hour of the game and an equaliser was the least they deserved.
Phillips made a great save before their equaliser and didn't deserve the goal against him.
Solly cannot play as a wingback. Once upon a time maybe, but not these days. No positional sense from him today, kept drifting inside and getting caught upfield.
Sarr is still a liability.
Lapslie, Pratley and Grant worked hard. Taylor needs to be more physical for a centre forward.
Awful, boring performance. A bang average season beckons.15 -
Settle in, we all know what a season under Roland brings...
NEVER been so disinterested.2 -
Sounds like (and going by Red Robin's marks) it went to pot when Lapslie went off0
-
On the M60 on the way back, probably a fair rssult frustratingly. Grant looked a threat, Bielic can play but tries to play a bit too much and nearly got us in trouble a couple of times. Needed to put away more chances earlier on, and better subs (with more squad depth) earlier was needed. A familiar storyline really.6

It sounds like they had chances and were in the ascendency before that though.ForeverAddickted said:Sounds like (and going by Red Robin's marks) it went to pot when Lapslie went off
Red Robin, when he came on, where was Marshall playing? Was he part of a midfield three?1 -
Whatever.
If you know you don’t have a good enough squad before the season starts, it means you aren’t bothered by a 1-1 draw away at Accrington. That’s what you expect the results to be like. Last week we pulled out a last minute winner, this week we didn’t.
Is it avoidable? Yes. Is it unexpected? No.13 -
Could Peterborough be painful on Tuesday...? - Hell yeah!!Callumcafc said:Whatever.

They're my personal favourites for promotion this season, only Warnock has been promoted more times than Steve Evans3 - Sponsored links:

Like many others I have a sneaking admiration for Accrington Stanley as an underdog club with an illustrious early history, coming back from hard times - a story to which our club's paymasters are doubtless oblivious.
However this empathy does NOT extend to allowing them to hold us to a draw!!
Roland, it is down to you that our squad is so thin and inexperienced - to quote Cromwell in another situation where people had outstayed their welcome *You have sat too long for any good you have been doing lately ... Depart, I say; and let us have done with you. In the name of God, go!"
Or, more succinctly, Roland Out Today!15 -
Performance as disappointing as the result. Most of our players looked better than their counterparts, but there was little energy and no spark. Looked like we sat back thinking one goal would be enough. Thought Lapslie was our best player so disappointed that he was subbed.
Can't argue with the result, I but did wonder if our goal had actually crossed the line - the ref gave them so many free kicks for nothing that I thought he must be trying to redress the balance for something.
Good day out despite what happened on the pitch. Thank you Charlton Athletic for making my home boycott easier. Roland out.12 -
Waiting to hear from some mates who were there.
Doesn't sound the greatest today, but a bit soon to write off the season with 129 points still to play for.
Some good players not so far from fitness, the kids with the chance to get involved, a manager with less than 20 games' experience doing more good things than bad, and with luck the whole club due an almighty boost when the rat finally clears off. Sure, the situation could be better but things WILL improve.
Tuesday night's performance against Posh should show a lot about this team.

Tight game, tight ground, didn't do enough, didn't test their keeper.
Grant might have nicked it at the but we weren't good enough.1 -

Good summary. I'm so impressed with what I've seen of Lapslie so far. I thought Grant looked like he'd lost some bulk too - might explain his good start to the season.Stig said:Performance as disappointing as the result.

I don’t disagree at all that we need Roland out nor that our squad is small but we can’t blame that every game. We need to take chances at 1-0 and the failure to do that is not related to how weak our bench is.JoshAddick said:Same old same old. Not enough squad depth to be able to hold onto games

They were there for the taking but we are not ruthless enough. 2 nil game over but one nil is a dodgy lead and it bit us on the arse against a side that will struggle to stay up this season.
Nice pubs in Accrington, another ground ticked off, a few old faces. Bar that typical Charlton, always letting us down7 -
Might have done better passing rather than trying to shoot from such a narrow angle.Henry Irving said:Tight game, tight ground, didn't do enough, didn't test their keeper.
