The most disappointing thing for me was that Barry (who was massively hyped) was anonymous.

A red card after the final whistle for the second time this season. Our approach to managing referees is an absolute disgrace and that does come from the manager, who pisses and wines about refereeing every single week without fail. Plenty of times we do get shit refs, but it's League fucking Two and we're hardly a bunch of professionals at the top of our game either. More to the point, it clearly doesn't help.

Okay it was shit but that would have been a travesty if we'd lost. But for one moment of sheer fuckwittery it would have been 3 points. And now,more lunacy with a red after the final whistle. Brainless fucking idiot

Total and utter gash, has to be up there as one of our worst performances of the season.  Really have my doubts about Garner, very much in the mould of Luke Williams for me.

Too many players off par today

Agreed. The ref was shit but what do you get out of abusing him after the game… fucking disgraceful. Fine him a weeks wages

Garner does bring most of these problems on himself, a defeat at home on Saturday could start to see things get a little uncomfortable for him, which is disappointing because we were flying at the start of the season and it all feels so self inflicted.

Meh, suppose a draw was a fair enough result even if grabbed late.  However, another team there for the taking to an extent.

I just don't think we are a good enough "team".  We have the look of a good sort of Academy team.  We are good in possession, when we are given time we look nice and tidy and we probably have some of the more gifted players with ball at feet in the division.  That is not enough to make a team in professional sports though.  We come with all the same issues an Academy team has, which is why nobody watches them.

We look ambivalent to set pieces - our only trick seems to be our own free kicks around th box leaving it to Reed.  Other than that it looks like it probably bores us to focus too much on the rest of the set piece repertoire.

We look like a team without blame - Academies, quite rightly, focus on the development aspects.  So you'll get critical feedback no doubt, but the result is secondary to the performance.

We look like we can really beat down a team once we get on top of them - confidence flows, the other teams struggle with our technique.  We also look just as likely to become very ragged if things start to go against us - the petulance of youth, the lack of experience to know when to focus, when to grind, when become more pragmatic etc.

We look very passive without the ball, like we spend all our time preparing for what to do with it.

I don't see us changing under someone like Garner, I don't see us changing with our approach to recruitment.  It's all kind of safe harmless fun.

I think the Transfer window wasn't that kind to us, but it's also a side effect of this approach.  KKH may not be a favourite of many on here, but he scared the shit out of defenders.  It created space even if he didn't make the best use of it.  It opens up the field for others.  We look toothless on the right now.  Simpson looks a better player than Davison.  Granted that is not on much time yet, but he just looks a meh type of player to me.  Competent enough, works hard, but lacks a strikers instinct.  Simpson maybe didn't have the latter either, but he just seemed a bit more instinctive, if a little less rounded in other aspects.

I still think the Play Offs are possible, but we haven't come into February looking a better team than we left December.  More of the same probably.
