Harrogate match thread

Well beaten. Harrogate well organised and won at a canter. Edwards early injury didn't help. For all the squad we have the bench was poor. Only positive point is we were numerically in it until the end.

Is it just me or does anyone else this Holloway over complicates things? Arguably our two best players from Saturday, Windsor and Williams weren’t even on the bench, and Williams had only played 70 minutes. Still I’m sure he knows what he’s doing and is still learning about his squad, and finding out what works and what doesn’t.

Quoted from WayneBurnettsJockstrap

With many many home and away match results turning on their heads across all leagues this season, maybe we should expect more results from the away games than from the home games.

That's like most seasons though, feels more fun to go to away days and see better performances than the drab affairs at home.

Best team won and by a mile. Half of town team nowhere near ready for league football. Where was Williams, Rose and Windsor ?

Very disjointed performance tonight. Just didn’t get going.
Don’t know if it was poor team selection or a good display from Harrogate. Or both.

Quoted from grimsby pete

Town played like they had been sat in a bus driving up and down the country all week.I

Let's put it down to that and hope we pick up again on Saturday.

Tilley Waterfall and Pollock the only ones who played well.

Defensively you're right about Waterfall and Pollock Pete but their aimless / inaccurate long balls just gave Harrogate possession which was no good as we can all see they're good at keeping the ball

If they'd taken their chances they could have had 5 or 6.... we just got the one from a Tilley pot-shot. Not much else on show from us going forward

Might have been a different game if Edwards hadn't had to go off but I'm clutching at straws maybe.... Harrogate out-thought us and out-played us. Well done to them - they deserved the win

We aren’t going to win them all. Goalkeeper error for the first for me, but we move on. UTM

Really hope fans don't get on their backs after that.

Yes it was poor from start to finish, but after the last three weeks, and the last three games, who can blame them for having an off day
We looked tired almost from kick-off, and Edwards seemed to take the very little wind we had, out of our sails.

Amazed that Clifton can still move let alone run for 90 minutes again.
Tilley looked good in flashes, and took his goal very well.
Pollock & Waterfall looked solid again.
Yes, Macca at fault for first goal, but how many times has he quite literally saved us before?

Chin up lads, you're still doing us proud. We all have bad days at the office.

Wouldn't mind being a fly on the wall in that dressing room though.

I feel like I've just watched our reserve side there tonight with a couple of first team players mixed in, hopefully Ollie sees that too

At least the first team will all be fit fot Saturday
