Good post. I would also add that we're not physical and strong enough and get bullied off the ball too easily and offer very little threat from set pieces.

We've not really been a 'set piece' side for a while now have we? I thought Jake O'Brien might have added some danger to our corner repertoire but that hasn't really happened.

No we haven't been a set piece side of ages but feel we need to be against the physical sides in this division.

Have Williams and Reed been confirmed as having signed? Great news if true.

I'm still too angry about Saturday to read this thread and be reminded.

My thoughts are-

We were quite threatening for good stretches of this game but lacked end product again.

I don't know if Davison was offside for the goal but would not be at all surprised if he wasn't.

We lost this game through lack of aggression in the latter stages and the return to fannying around at the back.

JoJo should be encouraged to work on quick distribution. I could tell from the off that Newport were drilled on smothering our tactic of playing out from a short goal kick. We kept setting up to try it though.

He should not have come for the ball that lead to the goal. Conroy tried his best to intercept it as he had to but it didn't quite work out for him. Not his fault.

Our substitutions were left too late again.

Tails posting that was the first I have heard of that, I would be very happy if true.

As it has been suggested to me exactly the opposite as well as Payne and Jojo touted as probably leaving too.

3 Harrogate tickets for sale (will stick in Harrogate thread also).

Barrow, Rochdale, Scunny, Oldham … you name it… nearly all aways been done this season, but fucking hell Saturday was rough. Garner happy for us to knock it about at back in 90th min - says it all. Players lost interest, but this “style and identity” is bollocks. Better things to do this Good Friday.

I heard that Betty's tea rooms are worth a visit.

Given that DOB had suggested a reduction in budgie for next season it wouldn't surprise me at all if Payne, Reed, Williams and Jojo managed to secure clubs higher up the pyramid. That said, if Williams and Reed have signed on for another year, that's excellent work by the club.

I can't see Gladwin staying either as pretty sure he signed on a one year deal.

He signed a new one year contract in January.

Yeah hes a decent squad player but wont ever again be in a position to start every game.

Baudry will retire in the Summer too so it will be a big rebuild if we fon't hold on to Reed, Payne, Jojo and Williams.

Not sure the fans would buy into budget reductions tbh, especially with our attendances at this level.
