I just cannot understand why Des took off Tyler and Ruben. For me, it was a matter of time before we'd score the 2nd. Henry and Bodin are good to come on when the games won. We were so much worse and Greg was lost with the new formation.
Yep the January window is costing us. Harris running on empty and no impact players like a Burey or Edwardβs to give a lift. How different would we be with a full squad to call on
Iβd also say the summer window overlooked the striking positions too. We signed one in January but he has in the main been unusable.
Bearing in mind Bolton have an Icelandic international as their fourth choice striker, I rather feel we went into this season underprepared with forward options. It has shown tonight and on Tuesday.
Maybe that's for a new thread.Still could be a great week, let's hope. But if not which players would we like to see gone. We are close and we know we have struggled for alot of the season. Cummings not sure ,Long and Stevens to go. Mcginty and Smyth will go. Mcguane to go ,Thornley to ,Bodin and Henry to go and Browne to go. How many players snd what positions do we need.?
He wouldn't do at all as he lost out in the interview process against Manning and walked away already from this club.How do you think he would do working under Tim Williams?
Youre right but would only need a draw or lincoln dropping pointsNo weβre not, Lincoln would be 3 points behind with a superior goal difference.
Completely agree..
Harris must be running on fumes, a fit striker coming off the bench for last 30 tonight could have made the difference. Or Harris coming on the last 30 etc you get the gist..
That was a huge blunder by the club in the January and I think it has cost us.
Finally someone with ball knowledge on here every rating perfectFrustrating game against an even more frustrating opponent.
My Player Ratings
Cumming 7 - Did OK, not much he could do about the goal and was always alive to balls over the top, no complaints
Stevens 6 - Helped Browne out quite a lot going forward, looked worse as the game went on though, and that pass in the 2nd half was woeful
Long 6 - Relatively tidy but I think he does struggle in the air, we miss Moore on this front.
Brown 7 - Played well with the little he had to do, won a lot of his headers, Stevenage weren't the biggest test he's had all season.
Leigh 3 - Absolutely appalling performance, every single ball was back to Brown, had one great run but this the only thing worthy of praise, was also at fault for the goal in my opinion (wasn't even goal side of his man) and should be dropped for Bennett
Rodrigues 5 - Huffed and puffed but struggled to have much of an impact on the game, few moments that he will wish he'd done better with
Brannagan 6 - The guy battles so hard but today just wasn't his day, really wish he'd be taken off set-pieces, rarely are they good enough and for corners he's more dangerous on the edge of the box.
Goodrham 4 - Poor game, barely saw him the first half, ran around a lot though, not surprised he was subbed.
Browne 5 - Stuggled to beat more than one man without losing the ball.
Harris 6 - Feel sorry for him, must be absolutely shagged with the 3 games and sheer amount of running he does, was also feeding off scraps tonight.
Murphy 7 - Had their right back in his back pocket for most of the game but final delivery wasn't quite there, a week without a game will hopefully do him good.
SUBs - Don't think any of them added much worth writing about to be honest.
They should get a roomSomehow @Leysboy and @Royalstandard74 went missing then
What a bunch of lilylivered losers we saw tonight! I hope we never hear from @Leysboy or @Royalstandard74 again
He brought 5/6 players in and none of them bar maybe the lb have done anything to help at allNot really. One January window is simply not enough. Too many players here already on contracts who were never going to leave. We can't just get players in without getting them out. He got in what he could.
