Thank goodness only 1 team is getting relegated this year. When was the last time we had a proper decent run of form?

Very frustrating. They've had the ball in our box a couple of times and have scored on both occasions. Terrible marking for the first, but the ball just fell perfectly to them both times. At the other end, Hessenthaler should probably have scored soon after the second goal, but it was a good save. Lots of grappling at set pieces missed by the referee.

I still don't have much idea how we're supposed to be playing. The front 3 have barely exchanged a pass in that half they are so far apart. Whacking it long towards Hanson is pointless when we don't have a forward or midfielder within 20 yards of him. At the other end, Harrold has had the support of runners so has been much more effective. They are playing a really high line but we're barely trying to play it in behind them which is odd when you consider that both Rose and Vernam have some pace (though Widdowson has the legs on the latter). I think we're seeing why Vernam hasn't been near the starting lineup for some time.

Ultimately, it feels as though they've barely had to work for their lead though they've certainly had the run of the green with the ball falling to them kindly. Certainly not out of the game but I'd imagine they'll have some chances to counter-attack this half so an early goal would be helpful.

I'm gonna say it.... we're regressing, Jolley can only live on so much kudos for keeping us up, afraid he's starting to grate on me now, constantly changing the team in attempt to counter the opposition rather than concentrate on his own team and style of play....thinking the unthinkable, it's nearly about time for a change...

At least England beat Australia this morning and I got a free bacon bun in the pub watching it  😀

Can anyone tell me why Hewitt is on the pitch????


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.

Ogbu and Green have made a difference.  Why didn't they start?  Ogbu is a bit dodgy in defensive positions (which is something he and the management can easily work on) but he causes problems up front.
