Absolutely horrendous. Comfortably beaten and 2-1 flattered us.

They harried us and passed the ball well, but we were awful. More concerned with pissing about at the back, creating nothing until the 91st minute

Eisa, Hunt, Clifton were all terrible. The latter 2 are not good enough to be our central midfield.

We know our defensive flaws, we HAVE to get new centre halves in, we just cannot keep a clean sheet.

Corners were awful, Just a terrible terrible afternoon

Our passing was woeful, Harrogate were just better than us today and deserved the win.


Grimsby and proud!

That was as bad as anything I’ve seen under Hurst or Holloway .
Hardly had any shots and didn’t seem to be able to get out of our own half due to their pressing.
We must have had 10-15 corners and I can’t remember any of them getting into the box

That's as bad as we've been all season at home.

It was clear we couldn't play out against these early on when they figured us out. We carried on trying to do it all game.

Harrogate had our number...no shame in that...they turned it into 1 v 1 all over the park and they were just better.
Biggest disappointment for me was that we really didn't seem to have a solution to it either individually or tactically.

The first ten minutes we looked alright. Moved it well and created some good openings. But once Harrogate started pressing us we were dreadful. I think it’s a combination of too many players who aren’t quite technically good enough but also too many players without the mental strength to play a passing game. Receiving under pressure or playing in to someone under pressure takes courage and I don’t think we’ve got nearly enough players who have that attribute. Too many players taking an extra touch and an extra few seconds. Individually Hunt and Mullarkey were both awful. I also still stand by my assertion that Clifton isn’t good enough with the ball to play a possession based game against an organised team.

And a quick word on the quality of the corners. Absolutely embarrassing. Not a single good delivery all game.

Oh well, take it on the chin and move on to the next one.

We underestimated harrogate they was better than us all over the park, some awful displays from town players today , messing about passing it around at the back in league 2 is a recipe for disaster they sussed us from minute 1 & we had no plan B

Second to every single ball, one of the most embarrassing afternoons at BP ever, and that is saying something. The relegation battle is on
