Holohan has been awful for weeks he seems incapable of completing a pass.
Except the excellent pass to Wilson at Gillingham which put us 1-0:up? |

Give over. He’s ok going forward but an absolute liability going the other way. That might be alright if he had good players around him but he hasn’t. |

Nice post - thanks for that. Slightly more tricky question for you. Where do you stand on Mullin’s theatrics? I’m being very polite.
I'd love him in a Town shirt shithouse 100% . I think of Wrexham a long ball team today anything but they scored 3 against the wind I expected a 2nd half mauling but they just carried on passing. Fair play |

I'm not a fan and I'd like him to tone it down a bit but I can live with it because he's such a good player. He will do anything to win and his work rate, ability and finishing is beyond question. He always puts a shift in even if he's having a stinker. I don't mind him going down easily in the box, most players do it, its not as if he's the only one but what he did today wasn't good. By the way, Refs in L2 give him nothing. Even when they should. The price you pay I guess. |

I’m not a fan of Holohan at all. He adds nothing when playing at this level. |

Not come to gloat so go easy on me.
Agree that with our budget we should win every game but football isn't like that. Look at our form since Christmas. Its been ok, pretty terrible in spells, with a few really good performances too. Today was a good performance where we just took our chances and it killed the game.
Harsh comment about Parky being excrement. His record is pretty impressive with several promotions so he's doing something right.
He's been brilliant for us. I don't expect other fans to understand what he's had to deal with but it's more than most have to in L2 and below. But even some of our fans don't like him and want him gone. Which is insane for me.
He's had to manage a team that's permanently in the spotlight, he's had to cope with a TV crew following them around constantly and this is where he shines for me, he's had to manage a squad full of players who could all make a case, (near enough) to be starting every game. He's a superb man manager. We'd all love to play like Man City but I don't believe its realistic in L2. Look at Notts this season, they were struggling even before LW left for Swansea and have really struggled to adapt.
I didn't think you were terrible, first half we had four shots and three were goals. In my humble opinion you desperately need a physical dominant striker and more pace in the team. But thats purely going off todays game so might be way off.
I like Artell, he speaks really well and I think you could do far far worse. He was on a podcast with our fans before he got the job with you and I really liked what he had to say. He's no mug.
Best of luck for the rest of the season.
I agree with what you say , well played today . I suppose it will get interesting with Parkinson if/when you have a tough spell in league 1 - we know what fans are like (I'm including our's in that ) + owners and whether they stick with him through bad after he's done so well so far. |

Maybe if he weren't a cheat they'd more inclined to? Appreciate your previous post, a very fair assessment and I'd love to be in your position. |

Didn’t expect to win, would have been ecstatic with a point and actually would have understood a battling defeat, sadly we never got anywhere close to any of those.
Our errors gifted them opportunities & they still had a couple of gears left I think.
Clearly there was a few players playing for new contracts today - at other clubs!
A word on Mullin, he’s a quality player at this level for sure but a classless c**t who embarrassed himself again today when he ran into Tharme in the 2nd half & looked like he’d been cut down with a machine gun. 🤬

They were ruthless in exploiting our errors. Apart from that they are very streetwise but nothing special but those two attributes alone are enough to get promotion from this league.
Think Arthur needs to start he made a difference and has done a few times. I suspect DA was preserving Wilson for future battles in taking him off because Obikwu was out of his depth today. Haven’t seen his miss on 89mins on tv but it looked an absolute sitter from the Osmond and would have made the last 6 mins v interesting. Doug continues to impress but the midfield limitations were glaring today. Probably changing my view on Gav being worth another year as a squad filler, he looks like he’s running on empty (happens to us all of course) and he hasn’t the technique to get away with a lower energy game.

On the basis of today I think Wilson was preserving Wilson for other battles. |
