Yes terrible defending for there goals. However, the players gave there all. And that’s what matters
I agree and well said, they have very expensive quality all over the pitch, and whilst we really pushed them in the first half, they had our number in the second and we got nowhere near. We should not be judged against Stockport, Cardiff or Plymouth.
Stay up this season and that will be a bonus but questions on last season's recruitment need to be addressed. Get this season over with clear out the dress and start again.
Awful goals to concede yes, but agreed was a much better performance. You would think we are bottom of national league north with how some posters are, and some on x.
It’s clearly fantasy that we have a chance of making the play offs. That said, there are a decent number of nominally winnable games left. We could with a decent wind, make mid-50s. That’s nowhere near play offs though.

We should not be judged against Stockport, Cardiff or Plymouth. Agree with this, it was touched on by Grant in his interview, we have to have a bit of perspective, & realism on how far we have come, the effort was there, but just lack that bit of quality that teams like Plymouth have, that's just down to having better quality players, we're not there yet, but we still made them look bang average for that first half. The change of formation today was a positive for me, looked much better.

The change of formation today was a positive for me, looked much better.I'm going to repeat it again. Plymouth didn't have any quality today. We had quality. Lee scored an absolutely amazing goal and in that first half he was flicking and controlling balls with absolute panache.The difference is we wasted it.
Look at the stats for the season so far played 34 games scored 37 goals 4th worst in the league conceded 57 goals second worst in the league. We are were we deserve to be. Any of you see that differently then your expectations are higher than they should be. We didn't have the funds to get two league one standard centre halves in January we get players that nobody else wants and think we can improve them.
