We've need a striker from the begining of the seasons but Slade is too obdurate to admit it.

We need a goalscoring striker alongside Jones, and a attacker midfielder to support the attack


Ideal - but not this side of Christmas - (I suspect).

Just need to try keeping the 'clean sheets' and accumulating the odd point.

Chris Hargreaves said we needed to be a bit braver and more positive from the off. I think that's our problem at the minute, we are so conservative.

Its okay everyone getting on the backs of our forwards but its not their fault.
You have to blame the way Slade wants his football played.
It is so negative.
I think we have got goals in the front line if Slade lets his midfielders push forward to support them.
Slade will not change our left hand side. Its so slow going forward with the slug out there it unbelievable.
Watch how our MFs have a defensive mind set throughout the game.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

I was filled with dread when Slade was named manager again. The only thing that buoyed me up again was when Wilko was named assistant.  Unfortunately it seems Wilko has nothing to add or Slade just doesn't listen. Hmmmm, which is it?

It's interesting, the Gimps I know here in Lincoln are getting rather bored of the football and lack of cutting edge up front, if it wasn't for the nauseating Cowley love-in the management would be getting it in the neck as bad as Slade.

So who will grab the much coveted goal scorer first, us or them? Because it's no coincidence that when we played Lincoln a few weeks back it was a rather turgid 0-0 draw and no coincidence we both went out of the cup 1-0 today.

A goal-grabber for either club could see their team into the play-off positions...so who's out there ???

We probably don't need another striker, we need a change of mindset. Plymouth are struggling big time this season and we needed to go there and pressure them from the off. They will be severely lacking in confidence, but if nothing else, we are a team that are good at getting no-hopers back to winning ways. At least we are consistent at that.

Agree with this and that "mind set" is generated by the manager, today was a day to start DJ and then get Bolarinwa running at them for a bit in the 2nd half. I actually feel for our strikers sometime as the supply has often been sh1te.

I refuse to believe that we could not have gone more attacking today with Jones in mid field alongside Summers and Berret and a front 3 just to offer something different.    

Our season is over IMHO if he does not go more adventurous in some games, especially at BP.

No Tombola on the bench even don't think Slade rates him at all too unpredictable.
