My god guys, we are a Conference side with as good a manager at this level as we can get. If Paul Hurst was to be sacked (with the team in 4th place I might add) then who on earth do you get in to make things better. Of course it was an awful result and display but aren't we letting our emotions take over from sensible constructive thought? We do not have a devine to be promoted, we just have to be realistic and support the manager and the team. The reaction of half the posts on here are almost as depressing as the result itself. Come on guys lets get in the real world. UTM


The real world , we have produced yet another poor performance in front of a yet another bumper crowd , the majority of who won't return very soon . Good money spent , too many times too many off days . Trouble is this problem never gets addressed .
If you can't get inspired in front of a big crowd your in the wrong job .

Think we missed Toto desperately today. Absolute lack of pace at the back was our downfall, N'siala gives us that cover when we get caught. Also thought distribution from the back was urine poor, only thing that came from the back without being intercepted/lost were punts towards LJL who battled but struggled against Brown & Bencherif. Though not perfect, Toto's distribution is infinitely better than what we saw today, can usually pick a pass through midfield along the floor and isn't afraid to bring the ball forward out of defence.

Don't get me started on Parslow.

2 days ago, before being taken off (hence my question)


Bang on, and was wondering why he was dropped when today's game would have suited him more than clay IMO

And what of Towns corners? At one stage we had 3 in a row, in any other game under any other team this would be seen as pressure, the fans of the team defending the relentless onslaught just knowing it was going to go in eventually. At BP fans don't even bother getting out of their seat for corners, so useless are they.
Seriously, how can a team who can't even take a corner expect to gain promotion? It's embarrassing and amateurish and it's about time Hurst acknowledged it and gave us some idea of just when or how it's going to be addressed.

We are great at heading balls to the opposition.  Sometimes our headed clearances are so "weak" they have to wait for them to come to ground.

Think like you , you just listen to the squad being announced and try to work out the system . We still need a leader on the pitch . I know it's one game , but it's the manner of the defeat . On paper we have a good set of players but , to me our manager doesn't know how to get the best out of them . Grinding out results due to backs to the wall defending won't bring back the fans .
With Mac loosing to Bristol , going to be an interesting game on Thursday .


A good win Thursday will help put this behind us.


Today we got our team back - town fan leaving Wembley may 2016

Brown would have been dropped for two reasons......
1. He has been playing sh1t..
2. Probably chose Clay with one eye on the average height of their squad..

Not a bad call really and not one i would particularly pick fault with.

Anyone blaming Macca for the first goal needs their head testing. Fantastic strike, nothing else to be said. I didn't think we were bad, just picked off after attempting to get back in the game. Lincoln played well.


Good hit but Mackreth was too slow on the short corner played to Newton, who has one of the best left foots I've seen in this league.
