Played ok in the first half, should’ve been in front. 2nd best 2nd half. Think we ran out of steam and didn’t have options to change it. Thought Clifton did better than either of our usual left backs. Interesting that they had a few key players back in.
It looks like history repeating itself, Neil Woods made us competitive in 2010 but just couldn’t get us winning in time. At the minute we are right in the games but just can’t get the wins. Hopefully when one comes a few will.

I think with Barrow winning we’ve just left ourselves with too much to do, it’s still doable (to stay up) but I think deep down we all know that’s not going to happen. We really needed a win today.

Second half was a sign of a broken side. A side lacking belief, confidence, and a will to win. They were there to be got at, and we were absolutey shite. Dont like Pell but he’s effective for them. 2 CB’s for us i thought played well, Hanson done his best, payne very poor when he came on
Are we playing better.. first half and at carlisle yes, but we arent winning. And over the last week 2 winnable games, we’ve taken 2 points and are 7 adrift including GD. Ive accepted it now and its heartbreaking that all thr work we did, The players of 15/16 and Hurst did, was really for nothing
We can blame Hurst, Holloway, the players. But this is down to one man. And if you think otherwise your a deluded fool. John Fenty has killed us again

At this rate we will struggle to hit 40 points let alone 50.

Was so painful to watch.
Players don't want to play for PH, they have no desire at all to put a shift in.
No one willing to get hold of the ball, just constant lumps up to no one, flick ons when they are the last man. I dont know if its fitness or just laziness.
Clifton played well at full back though.

Signs of understanding and partnerships developing which would be fantastic if we were a dozen games in ...rather than having a little over a dozen left.
Zero attacking threat is our downfall, the back four has looked relatively ok, the midfield partnership is quite hard to break down....just the spark up front needed.
Thought the players put a shift in until they tired, think the LJL miss on the stroke of half time hit us hard mentally, after bossing the first 45 mins a goal would have been the cherry, missed it and I think half the team thought "here we go again"

Was about to post the same, I wouldn't bother with the other two left backs just play Clifton the rest of the season. Good first half probably the best 45 minutes for months but apart from LJLs glaring miss no threat especially in the second half. In the end probably lucky to get a point. Sadly not good enough.

Very poor zero creativity attacking threat. Subs were poor made no impact and whole team tired towards the end. Where are Williams, Bennett and Scannell when you need them? On to Wednesday...
Are you George Williams? 2 are Injured 1 is excrement. Hurst made attacking subs. Paynes not interested

Well I thought I had heard all the excuses but where has this tired excuse come from. Now let me think, you go to work and midway through the afternoon the boss comes up to. Your looking a bit tired, take the rest of the shift off. I've never heard of it, have you?
So you're a PROFESSIONAL footballer, you know that you have to be fitter and athletic more than the average person, it's in the job description. Being able to run, once or twice a week for say 2 hours each day.
Do you :-
A/ Get fit like most people B/ Do lots of exercise to ensure your are at your peak all the time C/ Do B and then do extra to make sure that regardless of any situation that you can perform 100% all of the time.
After all 2/4 hours per week to perform to the maximum of your ability out of a working week of 40 hours should not be too much to ask is it.
So why don't they work for a living, most people do.

Please Mr Williams, I implore you, tell your son to work a bit harder on the training ground. If he can’t force his way into this team then what hope do we have?
