So glad it was a 20 min trip for me, but for 5 mins start and end of each half just utter dross, one proper shot on target all game; we are simply too negative, if a team has possession in our half our players just run away from the ball into the penalty area. Vernon Woolford just too slow, Dembele and DJ trying too hard, back four that cant defend and strikers that cant score. Crewe were nothing, its just they moved a bit quicker and did things quicker and got to nearly all the 2nd balls.
Only 1 playewr who can say they were ok today and that was Summerfield, didn't notice Osbourne do much wrong but overall what a waste of £22. Thought the chanting Slade/Fenty out was a bit unfair on the players at an away match, but all for it when we're at home.

Should have listened to the Mrs when suggested to son we go today!

I won’t repeat some accurate observations about how we played today from previous posts. However, as an ex player I can tell that half the side did not want to be there today. The body language was defeatist, negative and absolutely no leadership in the team as well as the obvious technical deficiencies already commented on.

I am 100% certain that RS does not have a squad fighting or believing in what he is trying to do.

It’s one thing to have absolutely no threat in front of goal, which we do. But coupled with a team that has lost its desire, then these are perilous weeks for us as a real nosedive is possible.

I see real problems ahead and let’s be honest, we can keep changing our managers but the issues at GTFC are much deeper and more fundamental than that.

The club has a leadership crisis from top to bottom, a culture of blames and bullying when challenged and a complete lack of transparency and humility from its board.

Worrying times.

Considering the low away attendance, I should've followed a lot of people and stayed at home. £22 not well spent...

Was hoping for a response from Saturday and we started fairly well but as soon as they started attacking, they scored and looked like doing so every time they went forward. Second half we had a lot of possession as they sat back but didn't come close to scoring so no surprise there.

This team honestly just bores me, and the five changes (some enforced) we made from Saturday just made it worse.

Crewe also lost by three goals on Saturday and also made five changes. They obviously have more depth to their squad.

Slade should never have been appointed.

We have invested in the squad - we have a squad of 30. We've just made bad investments.

Slade cannot get the best out of our most talented players. Jamey Osborne allegedly not committed, Sam Jones - our only real goal threat - has lost form and confidence.

It's not excusable because they're professionals, but if I was a creative midfielder/attacker I wouldn't want to be playing in a Russell Slade team.

So, in summary: Slade has made mostly bad signings, made our few talented players lose form or feel marginalised, got us playing the most boring style of football in my living memory and has a worse points-per-game ratio than the 'disruptive' Marcus Bignot.

I don't see a future under Russell Slade. I can't for the life of me see what he's trying to build.

Yes, he said that at the recent forum. 'I'm trying to build you something'.
What is it Russ?

Sladeballs desperate comment was like a dead man walking tying to buy time, so far there is nothing to show what he is building, unless it's cheap as chips players who do enough to avoid relegation each season whilst playing the most unattractive football they can club together.

Well they do say that Rome wasn't built in a day, but I wasn't on that job  


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.
