Agree with the sentiment and from an outsider looking in the BRovers fans must think..."jeeez...you drew away at Chester, W4 D1, on form and sit 4th but are going mental at the manager..get a grip.." when put like that then yes..we look like a whining bunch of big time charlie tw@ts....
however, we are not outside...we are inside...we are experiencing a general de ja vous with style of play, tactics, defensive mentality which has seen us flatter to decieve long term and ultimately fail. We are first hand seeing and hearing the manager make and defend tactical errors...there are always opinions, points of view, perspectives on a game but for once most are united in one thing...the two points at Chester swung on THAT substitution and change. While we are in such a position so close to the end of the season to actually be able to make a realistic challenge for the automatic top spot, for the first time since we have been down here, to see that challenge falter when other results were favourable on the back of a poorly timed tactical switch then obviously...as insiders .....that rattles and triggers emotional responces which you cannot understand unless you have that love for the club.
Saturday is another day, another chance and hopefully another clubs supporters turn to suffer the torment. UTM

Quite agree Moosey. That's the thing about football, once you're satisfied, you're sunk.

We are all so picky now that we could have had 5 wins on the trot and now only have 13 out of the 15 points available.
We would have taken that amount before the 5 games but are now demanding perfection in the long run in, and this was DEFINITELY 2 points lost.
Several stupid results like losing 6 points to Lincoln mean we are not now in top spot.
Still close enough to go for every single point available from the remaining games - others cannot keep going and winning every game as some are playing each other, so we have to try to win every remaining game, ans see what happens !!

I think the thing about pointing to all the lost points is that probably all the teams up there could do the same. Barnet must really be kicking themselves for Tuesday night - they lost two points in the very last minute. We're up there and in with a chance.

I think those lost points were more damaging to our chance of top spot than the 2 lost against Chester.

Mathematically, of course those 6 points lost to Lincoln were worse than 2 dropped at Chester. For most people who commented on the Chester match, it was the fact it seemed to boil down to one daft decision rather than a more general under-performing. It's easier to focus your frustrations on. Also it's a lot to do with timing. Emotions are bound to be higher at this stage when we still have a chance.
