Swindon v Carlisle pre match chat and matchday thread

[Berniman]

They are there for the taking if we get a few shots in on target, they are not playing good football but it is working.

HT 1-2

No, you are wrong - we are playing Fake football, they are playing football as it is supposed to be played..  Stadler and Waldorf said it so it must be true

[Nomoreheroes]

HT. Disappointing. Reed and Grant not playing well together. Critchlow and Conroy don't. Look great together. Critchlow possibly better at LB where Hunt is having difficulty.

Gladwin not getting into the game. Would be better Infront of Grant like last week.

You don’t win in this league unfortunately by playing nice football. As annoying as their commentators have been that half they are right about that

Fanny football from us. No end product, no threat and more than a bit dodgy at the back. Not much on the bench to change things.

We did with Wellens? Did we not?

[RedRag]

Let's be honest, Carlisle thoroughly deserve their lead.  It could be more.  They play long, bustle and win throws and corners.  They also support their own players on the ball and haven't looked under any pressure.  very well.  That's why they're winning.  Not because they're big.

Ler's hope we can learn quickly in the 2nd half.

Disagree - I refer to 2 years ago and the Di Canio season.

[Bob's Orange]

Sounds like we look disjointed, which we are currently. It's pretty much a brand new side put together at lightening speed and very late in the day. A point today would be great , once Garner has had time to work with the players and get them to gel, we'll be fine.

[Flashheart]

We're playing like a group of individuals who don't know each other yet.

Carlisle comms are obnoxious

We won this league playing nice football precisely two seasons ago.

We look too negative. Simpson doesn't seem to be holding the ball up or getting in behind. They've had the better of the chances and we look a bit devoid of ideas when we go forward.

[singingiiiffy]

not sure if I'm more disappointed with the performance of the players or the fans. quiet as anything. Carlisle are winning on both fronts.

gladwin and Payne invisible this week and we desperately need to get a grip on midfield

Agree about disjointedness.

Interested to see if he can fix it for 2nd half.

Shows Scunthorpe were not very good.

Gladwin I agree with, but I thought Payne has been one of our better players.

[Berniman]

This is the type of performance we expected last week - we all said it was going to happen for the first month or two..  It will come, but to say our style of play will not be successful in this league is just wrong..

[Berniman]

Gladwin I agree with, but I thought Payne has been one of our better players.

Agree
