I have defended MT and the team when we have lost games where we were big underdogs, thinking we were scraping for our lives and we just did not have the quality to compete due to injuries etc. Then we come to our bread and butter games like this. Not good enough.
I am a big bowman fan and constantly spout off that if you give him service he will score but far too many decent crosses have gone into the box and he is nowhere near them. Time for Mata.
Udoh has looked decent when he has been able to get the ball down but we continue to punt high balls that he is never going to win.
Ref is whistle happy and loves throwing a card about. We should try to work this to our advantage.
Cheltenham are not a bottom of the table team and have got some half decent results recently but we have got to get something from this game due to previous games results.

Well its good to have a bit more of the ball of course but unfortunately it just emphasise that we don't tend to do an awful lot with it when we do. Bit of pressure on the Cheltenham goal though and I'm hopeful we have at least the one goal in us. But same old, same old. We just look disjointed and we just don't play an awful lot of constructive football.

Shipley has repeatedly got himself into some great positions and has looked to offload the ball but nobody is anywhere near him. The sooner Baylis is back the better!

**** me we are a hard watch, I don’t think many fans can defend the style of football being served up by MM & MT..! Would take a point today as Cheltenham are improved.. The lack of creativity and goals is killing us…

Embarrassing in my view against a bottom 3 team, surely Taylor can see goofing it to udoh isn't working? Crosses may aswell just tap the ball out for a goalkick as all are over hit anyway midfield absent as we just pass back to dunkley who boots it long every time are you actually watching the game ?, Bennett has been putting some fantastic balls in today, Andersons balls have been terrible , Dunkley has sent 6 long balls half of which found a town player

Mata on for an Injured Perry.
Udoh can actually get into the game now.

Furious doesn’t even cover this so far…we are abysmal and if we lose today I can see plenty of empty seats come Fleetwood on NYD and hopefully the chairman bloody notices!!!

How many times is MT going to have to say "we have to do XYC better" before he takes some responsibility for his poor tactics.

Get Benning on and get Shipley in midfield.

Get Benning on and get Shipley in midfield. If it’s anything like Saturday he’ll get Benning on and play him in midfield instead 🤦🏻♂️

Only one team deserves to be winning this at the moment. We look the bottom team, not them.

Why has the average first half performance completely tailed off and got considerably worse?
What the **** are we even trying to do?

Smile and clap everyone, let’s get behind them. They are a better team than us so we can’t expect anything else. I’ll be happy with 25% possession. we currently have 58% possession, so the score is irrelevant apparently Mickey Moore will be overjoyed with that stat, I expect to see him wheeled out for an interview in the morning to confirm this as a statement of our progress…….

According to the BBC 15 shots so far but not a single one on target.

Terrible.
We had glimpses since the changes that where we decide to play the ball we can move it around well. This s**t hoof tactics are ineffective, boring to watch and down right negative.

So pathetically predictable
I saw through this back in September and we’ve got even worse
Taylor, Moore, Roland. Just go

Well this show is embarrassing. Firstly the tactics are all wrong, it’s a case of defend and hoof the ball. When we do get possession no one can hold onto the ball. This has got to be down to the coach who, as I have said before? Does not know what he is doing. He needs to go and quickly. Get someone in who knows how to get the best out of the players and the right tactics. Bloody rubbish.

So what’s the excuse this week from the happy clappers?
Cheltenham are a much better side than us? Cheltenham have more resources than us? Cheltenham don’t have the injuries we have? Cheltenham are a big club?
Our league position is a false position. No goals, no passion, no entertainment, no quality, no improvement.
It’s so negative every single week, we have nothing to cling onto that gives me any hope. Maybe we won’t go down this year but do you think the likes of Dunkley, Marosi and Shipley will really fancy sticking around for this next year? Taylor was even being called out by Flanagan on the radio for the negative tactics. After nearly ten years in this division it’s not good enough to merely hope to finish 17th every single year by clinging on and being bored stiff 90% of the time with the occasional cup run.
Some fans might be happy with this every single year but I’m not. Where’s the ambition to progress this football forward? Why should anyone whose not been a lifelong supporter in their late 20s or older feel inspired to go and watch this week in week out?

Well… this is all on Roland, recruiting a head coach with no experience was and will continue to be unforgivable, the sooner our chairman ****s off the better, this new structure is a joke..! MM’s recruitment has been an absolute nightmare..! We’ve been well beaten today…
