Players have downed tools, they don’t give a excrement. Send all the shite loanees back including Hunt and actually spend some money and bring in some proper players who give a f.uck, rather than cutting corners with young kids who are used to kids football. Weak as urine the lot of them.

Good job there is not a brothel on the way back, they couldn't even score in there!

You've started the Just Back thread, tell us about the game.

How did Crocombe play?
What happened in the mix up for the first goal?

Towler, Hunt faded very badly as have the rest of the squad.

Bapaga not to be seen these days and Revan never been good enough so yes send the lot back and try to keep Bell for an extended stay.

These are all teenagers experiencing their first full season  in a very physical national league it was folly to expect the kind of consistency we demand from such players and to have 4 out of 11 in your first team is asking for trouble.

Starting to get worried now, the way these players have decided to not give a toss.

We have a problem and im not saying Hurst has to seriously be under pressure but the way its gone completely mammaries up is very worrying.

Is hursts obsession with loans and looking for the perfect striker starting to bite him on the behind? Some will say it was well before that.

Whether the early season team were really as good as we all wanted to believe is irrelevant.

The players believed in and played for the manager, now they don't

Well done to the 202 that went.
Fantastic effort


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.

Stockport had far more experience, fitness and physicality than our covid and injury ravaged squad. I hoped for a brave struggle to a defeat by two goals perhaps and no injuries. A schoolboy error gifted the first goal and slow reactions in our box made it 2 - 0.

Crocombe prevented at least two more goals in the first half but the game was made farcical by the sending off. LJL may be reprieved and only get a one match ban if Stockport give supporting evidence. I hope they don't.

We had a chance to play a different game to playing in to a big guy and picking up the scraps. Playing three at the back made us short in midfield and it was a struggle to get any supply to Bell. He might have linked better with Grant or Wright even if it was for half an hour. Tactics have moved on and left Hurst and LJL behind. Perhaps with more mobile options like Essel we could have pressed more and stopped Stockport building from the back.

Once again, there was a lack of leadership and organisation at the back. Confidence is very low but it is wrong to say the team has downed tools. We have assembled a group of young signings and loanees who look promising when we have our best players available but look exposed when under pressure.

Listened to Hurst talking about the impact of Covid as I drove back and reminded me of Holloway's pinings.
The media are clearly wary of asking the questions so many of us want answering so another droning non interview. If they won't ask what's wrong in the dressing room why not something like,

'Paul, you've just said you wanted to get a game of football out of the way so why did you risk Bell for so long and why didn't the keepers get a half each?'

Chatted to two teenage season ticket holders in the second half. Sad to see them losing belief in the team and also having to leave early because they heard their train was cancelled.
