Looks like no one seems interested in this one. Going to be a low gate. We’ve spoken about six pointers before but THIS is the perverbial six pointer. A must win game Hope that Hollowhead and the team an actually understand this. Almost last chance saloon. Fed up with predicting scores, just know we’ve GOT TO WIN.

Looking like another wet & wild one tomorrow. Fleetwood to go 2 up before we claw it back to 2-2 and then succumb after losing all momentum. The lesson to be learnt is that lessons aren't being learned.

I've accepted that we're one of the 2 worst, if not the worst team in the football league. We're going down.

The press conference was interesting. I'm wondering if Smith is going to be the fall guy given Botan is in the squad (and he was hooked at half time Tuesday). We need to do something different, not sure kids are the answer. Not before trying 4 at the back and playing a holding midfielder anyway. I've accepted that we're one of the 2 worst, if not the worst team in the football league. We're going down.
That's why we'll win, to give you faint hope before football kicks you in the balls again. Actually I think you are right.

We’re going to lose, don’t know how but we will almost certainly find a way to lose.

Based on nothing more than him being taken off at half time I reckon Smith had a tantrum at half time. His constant arm throwing and pushing other players when the chips are down is not what's needed. He's equally limited but I'd probably rather Drinan leading the line. At least he'll look like he's giving a shit and not moaning like a bitch all the time.

But he does score goals. Drinan doesn't.

Just hope if he’s going to throw Jaxon Brown in the deep end then it’s not at RB in our biggest game of the season so far, because that was horrific player management.

I don't think taking out the only striker who can score goals for us is a particularly good idea. Especially when your replacement is somebody who before Morecambe hadn't scored a league goal for us in around 6 months. Why can't this football club just do the basics correctly? Our best strikers are Glatzel and Smith. Play them up front together. If it takes 5 games to gel so what? just get your best players in the team. Change the goalkeeper. Please.

If Smith has an attitude problem he's got to go imo. No player is bigger than the team

Never felt so disconnected from the club, I will watch it online but won't be bothering to post anything, fucked off with the lot of them.

And that's why I could never be a football manager because if I had a petulant arsehole who has a record of relegation the previous season, I'd get rid. Can't ignore his goalscoring rate, which is good bearing in mind we are as creative as the Tottenham Hotspur badge regrading team. I agree about the goalkeeper though, Bycroft looks like a confidence mess.

If his attitude is that Holloway/Bignot/Gunning are fucking clueless, he's probably got the same attitude as most of us.

Third worst looks like a pipe dream right now.

I honestly think that the only way we finish in front of anyone this season is if a team has a massive points deduction.
