Apathy , but still turned up expecting Grimsby Town to put on a display to put the Lincoln game down to a one off . Same tired players putting in a lack luster performance , thanks Hurst .
Aswad  like Sunday shows he's  not fit or carrying an injury , midfield creates  very little although busy . Pitman Lewis and Arnold appear to have never played together before . What our keeper was playing at I don't know . Just no understanding whatever . 4 5 1 ,  4 4 3  perm any number you want . Macclesfield  weren't  much but played the ball on the floor and looked ok .

Some  complain about no atmosphere  , well Mr Hurst come and sit with us . I don't  know what your looking at , but your glasses must be better than mine . Another 2 hours of my life I won't get back .

Was told he didn't  pass a fitness  test . Your lucky to have been at work . Best thing to see was the fireworks behind the Osmond  . Always happens after a Lincoln game .

Didn't play particularly well in the 1st half but we had enough chances to be in a decent lead. Not sure how LJL failed to get anything on his golden chance in the first half and Pitmann too should have scored from the Shops cut back.

How many times in recent years have we conceded goals like their first one? Parslow backed off and backed off allowing their guy to run from 45/50 yards out without any semblance of a challenge. That wasn't experience just gross incompetence. Get savvy, take one for the team but foul him whilst out on the touch line if you have too and take a yellow. Naive in the extreme.

I expected us to kick on in the second half but frankly it was the most inept 45 mins I have seen for a long time. I walked from near the college to the game today. I am convinced I put far more into that walk than Nathan Arnold did in the 2nd half. He strolled his way through it, was never available, didn't attempt to close his opponent down when they had the ball and offered Thomas nothing by way of support.

Many on here campaigned for 4-4-2 yet it is so easy to play against and that is why so few teams line up like that today. As Lincoln did, they had someone between our defence and midfield and we couldn't cope.

The winner? Thomas was pulled to the ground on the refs blind side but I am surprised not to read any criticism of McKeown. I thought he should have done better with both goals.

Pearson is the one shining light. Another very good display. Some have been critical of Toto but god how we have missed him in the last 2 games ( +Magany of course)

IMO Thomas had a better game than of late but our wide players brought nothing to the game. Scott Brown re tweeted loads of stuff from his followers about why he was left out v Lincoln. Again in my view he hardly proved he should be a guaranteed  selection. Wrong choices time and time again.

Strikers missed chances but Hannah struggled to control the ball once he came on.

Very disappointed. The squad needs a shake up, do we trust the manager to do it?

It is the shocking home form that worries me and many others most. I do go to most away games and we look a well drilled organised outfit.
But where it really matters, in front of our fans/paying public we are shambolic, toothless and devoid of attacking flair.

I can stomach a home defeat. That happens in football. It's the manner of the defeats that concern me most

Something needs to change and change quickly.

I could've shat with rage at the first goal.

About 35 yards from goal, out on the left touchline, their centre forward is going absolutely nowhere unless we let him. Parslow backs off and backs off until he allows him into the box, from there he's struggling unless he makes great challenge.

That's 4 goals in 2 games that have come down our left with the ball played across the middle. Four. You couldn't make it up.

The players just stand there like statues waiting for things to happen, instead of making things happen.

When we have a throw in their is no movement, and when the opposition are on the ball they hardly stick a foot in especially today.

We never seem to spring a few passes together, and the booting down the channels does naff all, when in attack their doesn't seem enough support, or urgency to move forward either the majority of the time, and when their is we just get hit on the break, like the Lincoln game!

Is this what Paul Hurst instills into the players?  Do we have any specific tactics, because the last two games we didn't seem to have any, and we don't change anything, well from what I see with my own eyes.

Never said anything after the Lincoln game, but I think Hurst must of been watching a totally different game to say we played alright, people in the lower smiths around me all said the same thing today.
