    They never looked tired tho. and thats the difference, we started sluggishly to-night and paid the price, no way back now imo.

    ffs, two games running a player that should not have been on the pitch scores against us and another goal line clearance saves them...when the hell are we going to get that kind of luck eh?

    my p1ss is well and truly boiled, no arguments with our red mind, although the villain did buy the foul more than winny fouling him...have stuck up for a few players recently but tonight some of them need to hang their boots up if they feel that was a worthy performance.

    I think you’ll find that is exactly why they are league one players, and also they are in no better position than the mag players, playing for the chop, very worrying.

    ****ing Bollocks.

    For two games running, undone by a player who should have been red carded early.

    but we have not been good enough. We are too soft at the back without Wright in there.

    He’s a little con man. Talks a good game but doesn’t deliver.
    We have the players just not the manager.

    absolutely not mate, also doyle who should have made the first tackle then gooch missing his kick to let them through for the third...i said first half i hope we come out for the 2nd with the right boots on the right feet, they did not.

    flanno has been at his worst tonight mind but he is also not alone, i dont mind giving players stick when they obviously deserve it but to use that to have yourself a sly dig is below the belt marra.

    It's the players who've made the mistakes

    The young players are struggling to cope, and the older experienced players are reverting to type all in one game. Its where do we go from here that's the big question.

    Dunno like, he talks some ****e at times (quite often) but we've had a lot worse and it's one bad performance from a depleted squad. We've also had some very good performances and strings of them. I'd be very wary of getting rid, we've tried that so often and what you're inferring doesn't work. Say we win the next 3 and go top would you still want rid? Time will tell but I just feel it's a bit knee jerk that, your opinion like and fair enough

    Bad night.

    Lincoln wanted it a bit more than us with an ex player with a point to prove to a manager that didn't want him.

    On to the next one.

    Chalk this one up as a bad night at the office, the lads have been on a great run, we are bound to have the odd blip.

    Its how we respond at the weekend that really matters

    mate, i expect league one players, hence why i tend to give them more lee-way than most as i do not expect premier league quality...but that shower of sh1te tonight was not worthy of the pub leagues

    We've never given up tonight, I'll give them that.

    Well played Hume. Great tackle.

    Aye as we know on his day Maguire has premier league quality and clearly this was his day. The problem with him is that it only happens once a month, if that.

    It’s not a sly dig.

    It’s to prove my point that Flanagan is completely inept.

    At 1-0 down we are still well in that game, but another Sunday league error from him costs us a penalty and reduced to 10 men.

    Gooch’s error is on the edge of their box, flanagans is on the edge of ours, there’s a big difference.

    He’s killed us again today. Johnson needs his head tested making him captain.

    Absolutely laughable.

    I thought Wycombe would struggle after the effort on Saturday ...

    ... turns out it was us.

    The referee didn't help but we'll recover from this.
