I think we are too nice to play against, we have very little physical presence in midfield and up front.
Our squad is full of lightweight and small players who are easily bossed on the pitch.
I think most managers know that if they don’t concede they beat us.

Well even i could tell you that if a team doesnt concede they’ve got a chance of winning. However why do you not post when we win? During our good run you were absent? Yes we are too nice, we need someone on at the ref, we need to go down.... yet we have one of the worst disciplinary records in the league

Yoda - talk balderdash you do. Never when we win you post. Off urine why don’t you?

I haven’t posted when we have won because i have always thought it was more luck than judgement.
I really want us to win but feel we are a poor small side and soft touch.
I have been to 5 games this season and seen us score 1 penalty and lose every game convincingly including Macclesfield.
Fenty is the issue no investment and boy does it shoe.

Is that some hip phrase used by kids these days? Is it like 'dem chunes iz well shoe'


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

This will take a year or two to work. What TF do you expect with no money. It’s a million times better than anything served up since we went down.

Were a team in transition so expect ups and downs along the way. Slow and steady will win the race with MJ in charge we're in safe hands.

It's clear that he knows what he wants and will build a team to suit just that.

January and summer transfer window should see us right 😎

It's very clear to us all about the need for additional firepower, MJ will know this also. I trust him to get someone who fits the team instead of buying for the sake of it.

Come on all let's push onto next game and give it our all 💪

Ask Tranmere if we're too easy to play against.

Ask Exeter if we're too easy to play against.

Ask Crystal Palace if we're too easy to play against.

Ask any striker in this division whether James McKeown is too easy to score against.

I get that there will naturally be some frustration on a night after a defeat - particularly if it was against a local rival and a sequence of defeats - but we've lost to two teams gunning for automatic promotion and a team near that bottom but whose form has been better than that.

We've just signed some new players, we're giving younger players a chance and a philosophy like that won't suddenly work overnight.

This club has been in the doldrums for too long now. You don't just emerge from a pit of despair with a four-game winning run. It'll take seasons to truly turn this ship round.

I know I’m banging on a very old drum, but how many more seasons does this regime need?

Failure to recruit strikers has been an ongoing problem, and then when we did get one, we let him go.
