Pity they got the third one they did. That said the miss in the last seconds would’ve broken our hearts if that was for an equaliser. Not sure that I am a Hunt fan slows the game up badly. Huge respect to the guys that had to nominate the man of the match because that was a hell of a job from that shower of shite. Bad day at the office looking forward to next week I think. We truly are crap at home I need a Plan B or some new players in January

Well that was always the danger in playing a side that worked so well against a 3 at the backvthat pushed very high forward, as soon as donny scored their back 3 became a 5, no space at all and we were set up wrong for the game and it showed. No guile against a defence sat deep. On top of that we had poor performances from back to front and we were always going to be up against it. A deep defence is what taylor prefers to play against, with his little flicks on to runners against a tight defence, so would have been handy to have him as well as mcatee to come on but Richardson has tricky feet, the subs gave us a lift for 2 mins before they scored again and it's game over.

Very poor in game management not to change it at half time really, but what was even worse and simply indefensible was waiting 10 minutes after they scored to bring on mcatee. He scored one, brought the only save out of their keeper in the second half, and if he had 10 minutes more when they were only 2 up who knows what might have happened. Just who did he still want on that pitch over mcatee for 10 minutes.

Only other save I can recall was Harry who worked so hard and created a fantastic chance for himself but after that brilliant work blew the shot.

Only Waterfall of the back 4 played well today, Smith made some mistakes, glennon was very poor and efete, whilst OK defensively was back to his abysmal worst with the ball going forward. Against hartlepool they simply ignored him, didn't bother to mark him and so he got loads of space but still couldn't score or assist. Against Plymouth he had space in front of him to run into and that plays to his strengths, as soon as he has an opposing player in front of him he struggles really badly.

I thought one of hunt or Morris should have gone at half time, neither was playing well, Hunt was booked also and we needed a change of shape. All 3 forward midfielders had quiet ish games, especially Khan for me. kiernan put in loads of effort but as soon as they go a goal up he is playing on his own against a packed defence and that isn't his game, he needs space.

On the plus side mcatee came on, scored and we definitely need him as an option up front, I would like to see him played with Richardson and for us to keep it on the deck to make the most of their trickery.

Completely justified defeat, really disappointing, let's hope mcatee has come back just in time for our season.

Stop being a tease and post it. Hopefully it's the same thing I heard today, but I just get accused of being a excrement stirrer so won't bother.


Nothing of that level. Call me old fashioned, but I expect someone laying a wreath to take their hands out their pockets during the two minutes silence.

How can you lay a wreath with your hands in your pockets?

One of the worst game of the season. I have never seen so many leave with 20 minutes to go - but they were the intelligent ones


First time I've left a game early since about 1993. Sod's law I left about 5 seconds before we scored.

Was at work and didn't see much of the game on the tv, it must have been bad because my mate who I gave my ST to sent me a txt asking for a refund!!!


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.
