There is some serious competition for that badge of dishonour.
The problem is he showed himself to be a bit of a twat as well today which is hardly going to help his cause. |

Strange game, bloody awful for first 35 mins and then totally overran them and could have had more than 4. We cut out the short passes and started to attack them with a bit of pace, players grew balls suddenly and were challenging for everything - although i find it hard to include Rodgers in that statement! In the end they were well beaten and their fans started to invade the Stratton Bank, fuck knows why - our useless stewards sat back and watched them do it before a tannoy announcement for them to return to their seats!

First 30 minutes were absolutely shambolic at the back. Worst of the season. We looked like the dog and duck 11 v Barcelona we were so so poor.... But there was always a flicker up front. It looked like we could score but concede 8.
The first was from the fucking retarded "genius coach football manual" that says play it out from the back, even if there is a player next to you and the opposition can see what is coming from a mile off and put you under pressure.
There second looked like a keeper error to me, should have come for it. Will need to watch it again.
However slowly but surely we came into the game. We shouldn't have gone in 2-2, but we did.
The second half was so, so different. We were comfortable at the back, on top and deserved won. Some of our attacking play was superb, and we actually used width. A really enjoyable half indeed.
Fair play to the STFC players to show bollocks, dig in and win after some much deserved criticism in the first 25. Who said moaning at players was never useful:)
But for the love of god can we abandon the 'pass it out at goal kicks at all cost' bollocks. It doesn't work, its fucking stupid.

Well fair play to our boys today. 2 down after a couple of gifts and crowd well and truly on their backs and they turned it around. Deserved it too.
This thread after 30mins gone is laughable mind.
You weren't there man! You weren't there!! (On commentary we sounded awful and prone to concede every minute!) |

Anton Rogers is the worst first team regular I've ever seen
Really? Worse than Michael Pook? Ricky Shakes? |

Oh don't get me wrong our defending was comical. Even at 2 down their keeper had made more saves than ours though. |

Bizarrely our friends little lad scored a penalty during half time at that game. The missus just said to me Fraser scored a penalty at Barrow today, I replied it didn't help as they got battered, she reminded me he is 7! |

Think we know that isn't going to happen....we just need to get better at it. The heebie jeebies it transmits to the fans though is fun. |

Caught the tail end of Hodgetts/Chalky White summary, they seemed to infer the Louis T. is on the way back - had there been an announcement or is Hodgetts having his customary wank over players coming in?

Power said pre-match that Louis Thompson was injured and that was the reason for the recall and Town hope to get him back. Whether that's 100% true or not? We shall see. |

Robert was like the Duracell bunny in the second half. He and Traore ran the second half. Rodgers was Rodgers...crap.
The least said about the first 35 mins, the better, but stop pratting about with it from a goal kick.
And short corners....stop it, and just get it into the box, especially shooting towards SB with the swirling wind.
Robert ...my MoM
