Yes terrible defending for there goals. However, the players gave there all. And that’s what matters

You can say it.

But i'll say.

That terrible defending will get us relegated. And im sure that mcann didnt walk into that changing room and say "dont worry about the shit goals lads, at least you gave it your all"

Id give it my all but i would also be a disaster on there

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.

If that was giving your all we really are F@&*$d.

Expensive, probably. Quality all over the pitch? Not from what I saw today, I thought they were very poor.

Defending like that shouldn't be judged? Are you being serious?

Do you all know what. I thought we gave the best we could.  But some can’t see it. I would sooner lose with the team giving it there all. But, I can’t be arsed with this anymore. Maybe in a few months or a couple of years I won’t be on this planet. I have seen good and a lot of bad.  So maybe put things in perspective. We love our club. My son will take my mantle on. I can’t renew my season ticket. But will always love my club.  50 years of supporting them

We are awful defensively. Look at the goal difference. We cant seem to produce a decent 90 minute display The goals we conceded today were soft. Still right in the middle of scrap to stay up. If we manage to stay up we will need better quality. Quite a few are obviously not good enough for this level. Not saying they didnt give their all. Im saying we dont have enough quality

Awful. No. But people see what they want. Two crap goals to give away, I get that but Hanlon will get dogs abuse and Clifton as always. But they put a shift in

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.

I don’t mind if we revert to dresses, just don’t put them on dross!

We’ve seen much worse over the years Spilsby.

It’s not over yet but as has been said, if we’re in Lg1 next season we need a massive overhaul of players.

I genuinly believe we will stay up. Not worried by relegation.
There are worse teams around us who i think we will also take 3 points off.

But what i am fed up of is mcann banging on about playoffs.

Would be happy for him to just come out a state we are in a dog fight and my priority is just to keep us up, then look to next season for improvment.

Yes agree Fal,  major exaggeration everytime we lose.

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 will need about 52 to stay up.

These next few games at home are really important as they are very winnable.

Going to wish you all well. I have always been constructive. If we are crap I say it. If we lose like today but try I will say it. But my life is unfortunately more about football. Love my club.  Love my fellow supporters.

It’s really not good enough to play that well and lose.

Pathetic goals conceded and pathetic in attack.

I don’t think we’re out trouble at all yet.

I thought we were decent first half. As ever, the opposition tweaked things at half time, we don’t react, and allow them into the game. We make mass substitutions and create nothing after them when chasing the game. Quite a familiar story.

I’m not going to criticise the guy but you do wonder what he sees happening on the pitch.

We will be having discussion like this right end of the season defence could better midfield could be better and forwards we haven't got any. We try our best but generally it's not good enough
We haven't got better players than what  started today that's why we dominated the first half unfortunately 2 poor goals conceded and 13 shots that weren't on target and 2 that were from us.

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.

We need to learn how NOT to loose games . We were handed a win by good goal but it’s not recognising dangers and Herbie Kanes goal was less a fluke and more of an intelligent cross that we fell flat on . No one bothered to attact the ball and it ends up in the net.

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.

How far we have come from when? 5 years ago? 12 months ago? We are a L1 club, we are just hovering around at our rightful level. How long has it taken us to get out of L2 in recent history when we’ve actively tried to? Not very long.

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.

I completely disagree with any chat about poor budgets or the funds not being there. It’s obviously not true. We are wasting money on some pretty ordinary men.
