Watched Colchester in the first half and saw how football should be played. Technically good players, looking to work the ball intelligently around and through our defence. Grimsby by comparison hit long diagonal balls, that we failed to win and allowed Colchester to launch yet another attack.

Second half we started more brightly, putting a couple of moves together.

The number of times Hendrie carried the ball down the right and it was crying out for someone to pass to down the line was infuriating. Jolley insists on persisting with this 352 formation that the players continue to struggle with.

The two runs of 4 consecutive wins have kept us away from trouble, but we need major improvement to avoid trouble again next year.

I thought we played 4-4-2 today ?

Today confirmed for me that Woolford shouldn't play again for GTFC and RHJ is a pretty crap full back.

I thought we started 4-4-2 but after they scored there was some frantic waving from the touchline and we switched to 3-5-2. RH-J was playing far more centrally after he got booked for bumping their no 7 off the ball.

To be honest I wondered if the players had been told that the club had decided on a mass clear out at the end of the season and most of them weren't getting their contracts renewed this summer?

I like 352, I use it for my team on Saturdays and used correctly it is effective. Against less quality teams its very effective and works brilliantly, I've found though against teams which have more quality and speed down the wings its a struggle and I come stuck at times with it.

See if you can grab 5 minutes with MJ and give him some advice.
