Another shocking game, I spend most of the game counting the minutes off the scoreboard. So drab, got to keep doing my duty and attending but it's like watching paint dry. Maybe need to start drinking more before the game.

Samaritans? I tried phoning them straight after the game, couldnt get through, automated message said they were experiencing a higher than normal number of calls from the N. E. Lincs area
I rang them saying I was walking along the rail track. They told me to stay on the line. If you don't laugh you would cry, it was grim, but the table doesn't look too bad.

Agreed more or less word for word on the summing up by Tommy and would add that Clark should be replaced by Osborne and Bolly on left wing
Last three games we have conceded one goal and that from a keeper error yet you want to change the centre backs? I think our issues lie elsewhere

Listening to the Brighton game while working in my workshop and it is very dull with a subdued crowd and no goals. Maybe this is just the way football is going and only the very top sides will play with any flair because they have the best players. Even Man Utd with all their millions played a very poor game yesterday apparently and have been roundly criticised for being negative.
Athleticism and organisation is killing the game. For top clubs, staying in the Prem is the be all and end all and at our level, staying in the league is the same. Managers go out with a must not lose attitude and hope they can snatch a goal or two from planned routines. Nothin is done off the cuff any more.
Yesterday on the radio, Slade was talking about how Crawley have scored 8 goals "in transition". I don't even know what that means.

Simply put, breakaway goals, after the opposition loses possession.

Kinell. Even football is going down the Management BS route. Transition FFS!

I watched the Goals Rush programme on Channel 5 this morning and I know it is only the goals but the vast majority of them were part of a recognisable attacking intent with forwards seemingly shooting on sight. Stevenage were poor but Luton fans must think they've died and gone to heaven. Certainly yesterday neither us or Crawley showed any sustained "attacking intent"

Can't say I noticed any of their players wearing dresses.

In this age of non binary gender fluidity we may all be wearing dresses.
