Swindon v Morecambe Matchday Thread

[Nomoreheroes]

No of course but it was a good height for him but he never ever tries to catch shots, which cost us goals, luckily this time it didnt.

And when he saved it, he pushed it out in front of him again. Not round the post.

Do you think we have the brains to take advantage of the conditions.........I dont

I have a feeling Ollie will lay into them and at this point I dont think we will lose today, but I think it could well be a draw.

Well, we are still in it. Might even win it.

But, even in these conditions it's not good

He pushed it out….sideways…..for a throw in ffs

[Batch]

Nothing wrong with that save.

We’ll score second half with wind behind us

That was a truly pathetic first half hour. Thankfully Morecambe are so gash, we are always going to be in the game and can hopefully turn it around. Anything less than three points here is an utter disgrace. Agree with the person who said this is like the 10/11 squad. Obviously nowhere near the quality of that squad, but they really do not look arsed a lot of the time, just like that 10/11 team. The back 3 are all at sea. Concerning that MK/Russell thought that back 3 would be a good enough unit. Signed all of those CB’s and only Wright has been a worthwhile addition

People keep saying this squad is better than it’s shown, at what point do you just accept it’s shit?! Surely we’ve seen enough now to accept this is the level of this squad, it’s appalling with no redeeming features!

Smith's a cunt but he scores. Would do the same in any other league 2 team.

I'll be surprised if McGregor is here by end of Jan, too many scouts sniffing about already.

Clarke's a good player. Some with Oforboh. Cox likewise. Those 5 players could be excellent in any league 2 squad.

There are some good players in the team, and a fantastic crop of scholars coming through. They're just undercut by piss poor management of the club (I'll put Holloway aside, he's only the latest distraction in the cavalcade of nonsense that's gone through the back rooms since 'Clem' took over), including the coaching and recruitment strategy.

Do I think we can win this? Probably. Do I think season's over and we're relegated? Yep.

I would love for someone to quote me in a few months time when we're flirting with the playoffs. But I think I'm pretty safe.

Shambles from top to bottom this club.

You got to hand it to Drinan. Proper 100%er, just the sort of player you need in a relegation struggle

I mean on paper a back 3 of Hall, Delaney & Wright does look alright. Hall & Delaney have on grass been atrociousz

Shit half an hour. Better after that.
Wind a massive advantage for Morecambe & hopefully one we can take advantage of in the second half.

We need the next goal & we need it quickly.
Drinan has added some endeavour which we were sorely lacking up to that point.

Maybe a few years ago that would’ve looked decent on paper. Grant Hall is absolutely finished as a FL quality player. Wright and Delaney on paper with another possible defender would’ve been okay as a back 3, but all 3 of them as a unit was never going to work.

I think Minturn's better than Delaney and Hall personally
