I find it funny that people always have to apportion blame when we lose. We didn't make the right substitutions early enough, or PH was guilty of trying to hang on to what we had in the second half, which seems to be a recurring theme.

Maybe, just maybe, Bradford are a better team who got their act together at half time and pinned us back in our own half?

There's no shame in losing to a better side on their own patch, and we did well to make such a game of it, despite the fatigue and the fact we were missing half of our regular defence. Cook didn't get a sniff at BP when we had Waterfall and Efete in the team.

I'm not certain but I believe he was subbed.

Agree completely, but with Max it feels a bit like Macca in that there is no experienced keeper pushing for the shirt so heā€™s pretty much guaranteed to be selected. At this level heā€™s a decent keeper, personally Iā€™d prefer it if he wasnā€™t aspiring to be a keeper sweeper but thatā€™s the modern way I guess.

Incidentally once weā€™re ā€œfinallyā€ mathematically safe Iā€™d like to see Ollie Battersby and Evan Khouri given a couple of starts just to give them a little bit of experience.



Crocombe has shown a slip in form but some seem to forget that Macca was never a top half League 2 keeper. Max , with the right coaching and confidence, is quite capable of being a lower half League 1 keeper, something Macca could never achieve. It's all down to opinions, obviously, but that is mine.

Cook was subbed in the 83 min of the home game against Bradford.

Completely agree about Battersby and Khouri, they deserve their chance. If they prove themselves thatā€™s two less signings Hurst needs to make in the summer.

Well I feel after a slow start we got on top in first half with Green dominating midfield battle. For whatever reason came out second half intent on game management/slowing game down from the off. Negative mindset. Bradford got on top, you could sense what was going to happen, and they may indeed be better and deserved result - but part of me thinks we brought it on ourselves.

Fair enough comment. Getting called a sex offender when you're not isn't really on. Same has been done to Ryan Reynolds and Harry Pell in the last year. Are we just making things up about people we don't like now?
