Just back to Manchester for a night out.

That was rinse and repeat of a number of games this season. Soft early goals and the game had gone. Did I hear Artell saying Obikwu had a great game? He and Wood are just not what we need in these sort of games, no guile or battle from either. Add that to daft mistakes and you are going to struggle.
Barrow had a good 3 or 4 players miles better suited than ours, Gotts and Stockdale ripped us as did Telford. Their CB also dominated us until Wilson came on and latterly Rose.
Add to that one of the worst stands I’ve ever sat in and it was pretty miserable. Two big home games then.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!

Yes Artell did say Obikwu was outstanding. His bigging up of Obikwu in recent weeks has had me thinking he might not be the right man after all. What is he seeing that not many others can?

I have to say I didn't think Obikwu was that fantastic, he did take his goal well but until Vernam and Rose came on we were just useless upfront, as we were in midfield and defence.

But all is OK apparently it was all the ref's fault.

Nothing really expected today.  Mainly about Mon.  But the usual early errors and capitulation donates the points with the fans let down again and peed off.

There are only so many lows that we can go through in one season!

I haven’t listened to his post match interview. I can’t stomach his gaslighting and waffling nonsense any more than I can stand listening to him yelling endlessly on the touchline.
He’s just not for me.

Did a lot of running obikwu but was hugely inneffective until his goal, he was one of the reasons we really struggled due to him not being able to hold the ball or pass it to a team mate. Took his goal well when the game was done though.

We were excrement and looked unfit. Blew any hope of a result with some horror show mistakes.
The fitness thing is a major worry. Our players look knackered after 35 minutes of a half.

Two tough games gone, expect better on Monday.

Can't warm to Artell though, his nonsense about the Ref was embarrassing and I always think he comes across as a bit of a mammary.

Well I watched all the game on tv and thought the ref was consistent which is all you can ask for. Yeah he could have made a couple of bookings and given some fouls but I prefer refs who aren’t over fussy and just let players get on with it.

Ref certainly wasn’t at fault for any of the three goals we conceded.

i thought the same, couldn't really remember any real serious issues with the ref. I was a little bit suprised when Artell went off on a tangent
