Dissapointed today, close game between two equally matched teams. Cant fault the effort, just missing a bit of quality. Thought Thanoj was our best player today, Duffy looked lost.
Never mind, lets do em in the league when we play them

York looked very average. We should stuff em in the league with our first choice team. Was very disappointed with Duffy, Wood and Makofo today. They were all useless and did nothing to stake a claim for a place in the first 11.

We did not deserve to lose that at all. Yorks defence is awful but in the end having 4 players out took its toll, we had nothing to bring on and no right midfielder for the entire game. York couldn't deal with Hearn at all but looked okay going forward, they were contained well enough. We'll 100% beat them in the league imo, with Miller, Garner, Elding and Soares back in the side we could've hit 3-4 today but in the end Hearn was playing about 3 positions at once.
Well done to York on getting through, looking at the results it's disappointing to go out because we'd have had a great chance of going through. Not gutted though, we've weighed York up and on that showing we'll hammer them, the fact they can have a fully fit 11 outplayed by a weakened side says a lot. I'd rather lose than get a replay though. Thanoj was brilliant, Duffy and Disley were absolute garbage. I'anson and Pearsons distribution was pretty woeful. He was shite when he came on but we really should've started with Serge even just to balance out the side, Church who played pretty well kept creeping inside meaning Hearn had to do too much leg work to get the ball. At least with Serge in there we would've had some balance if anything.

Thought we matched them well.considering it was by cfar our weakest team against their strongest! Whole team played well apart from Duffy and Disley who i thought were awful!
Referee was truly shocking today aswell!!! I think we will put it all over em in the league with our best players back.

Disagree with Wood, he looked ok when he came on but he won't come in on the wing and probably won't knock Silk out the team. Agree with Duffy and Makofo though, Duffy won a few a headers but they didn't really go anywhere and he spent the rest of the game falling over. Makofo was his usual self got the ball, ran forward and then lost it or gave it away.

Thought we missed the missing players today. Artus' set pieces and balance on the left, Elding's work rate up front and his partnership with Hearn, and Millers calming influence on the back 4 (although I thought I'anson steped in well). I also thought changing the midfield around didn't help, I think we missed Coulson on the right, he provides natural width and creativity and looked slightly uncomfortable on the left.
Taking the fact that we had players missing the managers hands were tied and we had to reshuffle the pack, so I for one am not too disappointed with the outcome against a decent York side. So time to roll out the cliche's and state the obvious... Let's concentrate on the league!

Today could well be a blessing in disguise. No excuses and no distractions from the play-offs now

Not too bad - don't think we were outplayed. Nobody was really my MOM - I think it was more of a team effort. York didn't look anything special. Did Alan Buckley have any interesting thoughts on the team or on the situation at the club?

Agree, although it'd have been nice to reach both the playoff and trophy final, but the playoffs is far more important, and as you say going out of the trophy means we have no distractions or extra games.

I know he chose Thanoj as his man of the match.
