We could definitely do with a goalscorer (as could a lot of teams) but I'm not sure he would've made too much difference today


I think it would have  tbh.. would have given them something to think about  ,, and we have had about 5/6 chances  today .. but not just this game  but all we have played this season

Realistically, I don't think many Town fans expected us to get a result today. It's the next 2 home games we need 6 points from, which would still see us well placed.

We;ve not had one simple chance today, didn't see anyone miss a sitter, just a shot on the turn at a tight angle, a few long shots and waffy headers back across the box from corners. Nothing clear cut and not a save from their keeper.
Loved Slades by the number subs, Hooper for DJ, then Vernon for Matt, and Woolford for Dembele, non made any difference, no change of tactic/formation and absolutely no reaction to their goals, didn't expect a win but we just slowly drifted through the game hoping Luton would member it up. Russ will be happy with his defence as Macca only had 2 proper saves to make all game other than the goals which he had no hope with. One of those games that was just Meh

keep it tight....keep in the game for as long as possible even if you arent playing well or just being outclassed......its a percentages approach....but again just as last week.....when you turn to the bench to bring someone on to fire up the team....you have Vernon, Woolford, Hooper .....or in other words...no hope.
The squad isnt good enough to sustain a real push/threat on the top of the league......some additional quality is needed in January to give us a true first 15...not a first 11 plus some steady eddies.

A point would have been a great result and it sounds as though we were outclassed. We don’t score enough to push for the play offs, currently at least. We’re amongst the lowest scorers in the division and a have an inferior goal difference to many rivals for the bottom play off place. If we can sort the goal issue then we might have a chance.

Let's take a cheap punt on that striker at Gainsborough then.



Paddy Madden wouldn't be a bad shout, 4th choice striker at Scunny now, but he is a natural goalscorer. Hasn't happened for him this season, but scored goals for fun last season, and dropping down to league 2 would help, and better than anything we've currently got.

I was almost directly behind it and it had some swerve on it. Great finish...


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.
