You don’t like 2 defeats in our last ten and six points off the play offs to the championship ? You came in here saying you’d changed your mind about DC and that he was doing a good job when we were 11 points off the play offs a couple of weeks ago ??!!! He loves the attention. Well he’s getting it isn’t he but it’s definitely not good attention because it’s sporadic, and strange to say the least. We’re in good form, today’s result means we’re not in as good form as we were but we’re certainly in with a shout of the play offs still. Wimbledon ground out a horrible game today but we’re going to finish higher than them because we’ve got players . They’ll stay up just or go down and quite frankly I couldn’t give a sh**e either way but I do know one thing I feel sorry for their supporters if they have to watch that style of football every week. |

Why don't you suggest we'll go unbeaten now until the end of the season and start being referred to as The Unbeatables for the next 18 months? because I haven’t smoked the fattest joint in Amsterdam! But you have smoked something in Amsterdam which makes you hallucinate relegation? Get a better dealer. |

The forum has lost another top man in Marshfield gas shame , hope he returns soon UTG. One of my favourite posters , obviously gutted that we didn’t win 3-1 today.( that and fed up with the minority of tossers on here) Come back Marshfield don’t worry we’ll win 3-1 next game. UTG |

In with a shout f the playoffs you are having a laugh just look at teams with games in hand over the 6th placed team and we are miles off |

Bit like you when we are winning I’m with HG on this (makes a change!). Craig has been at fault for 3 goals in 4 games and we haven’t kept a clean sheet with him in the team. Caught out against shrews, got turned on Tuesday night and then ended up on his arse, then didn’t chase back quick enough which all led to Rochdales equaliser and now he has been caught out again today. Not making him a scapegoat just pointing out that he has not had a great start to his gas career and that I expected more from an experienced centre half who has come in to tighten up a leaky defence. I completely agree with this on tony craig... He’s cost us 3 goals and should have been dropped for either Lockyer or Sweeney and Broadbent should have played...armchair critic but I’ve played a high standard of football and can spot a player when he’s picking up a wage to hide in games and his legs are gone just like the millwall fans said....he’s a back player not first team selection... That goal was shocking to give away...bread and butter header to clear but he can’t get his feet off the floor and there’s now way Broadbent would have missed it... You can see lines looking at him with his arms in the air saying what the Cheese? |

Unfair to say his legs have gone or hes just picking up a wage imo. |

Gutted for team and fans,travelling or listening,but lets not overact as we tend to do on this forum,remember those two impostors,triumph and disaster!we showed today why we are a mid table side,capable of beating the best and equally prone to losing to the not so good !DC summed it up well,solid defensively(for 921/2 mins) but woeful upfront/midfield with no one capable of holding the ball and picking the right forward option.A Dons goal was on the cards because listening on radio the ball was coming into our box far to often the last 15 mins and by the law of averages one was going to drop in there favor, eventually,we can all speculate on team selection,subs and all the rest but we are not professional football managers ,and though like many others i ask why has DC done SO and so,sometimes.simple answer is because hes paid to make them calls, it wont work every time but i for one am happy to trust his judgement over the season, and am confident he will lead us to the highest position we are capable of, of course that wont be high enough for some, but its where we are as a club, and thats not half as bad as some on here would have you believe, up the GAS! Pretty much agree but being there it was a solid performance certainly no more. Never really looked like losing until it happened. Craig’s come in for criticism but I thought he played very well to the extent that he and TL dealt with everything thrown at the defence. The problem with the goal was the cross being allowed, we had been better at stopping them imo. Wasn’t a good match but I thought we looked comfortable for the 0-0 until the end but we were never going to score. Of course DC was upset but the bigger picture here is our defence looked far more secure than it did on Tuesday. Blimey, I said a week ago that this league is so close that when we win people talk about play offs, lose and they start talking about us being awful and this thread has just proved it. It’s a Forum so everyone posts what they want to but Christ having just got back and reading some of the stuff on here makes me wonder about the ability of some to accept that sometimes you lose a football match! We lost, we’re still in top half which probably reflects where we are compared to others. A shame but not a disaster. We move on to the next match and win that. UTG! |

The search for scapegoats intensifies. 1] dc for messing up the substitutions? 2] craig for gettin done in the air? 3] nichols for being nichols? 4] dc for leaving broadbent out even though he may be unfit? 5] the owners for not spending much more money during the window? Take your pick folks. Craig got done in the air v shrews too. Not massively impressed so far to be honest. Just saw the goal on tv and i agree craig should have done better. |

We’ve made the play offs from this position before. You should know that ? |

I was simply stating that we’ve made the play offs from this stage before. There’s 39 points left to play for and we’re 6 points off the play offs. To suggest the play offs are out of reach is ridiculous. |

To suggest the play offs are out of reach is ridiculous. You have to have a decent defence to pick up points or a better forward line to score more than you let in. At the moment we have neither, certainly not good enough to get into the play offs. Its not impossible of course, but highly bloody unlikely. I was unimpressed with the Jan signings, and still am. |

We’re 6 th in the form table . With 4 wins and two defeats from our last six. If we can keep that kind of form going we’ll be in with a shout. We’ll see. |

We should have signed 2 decent full backs in Jan, didnt need Craig imo |

Good to have options. Im not sure what position he played last year,i mean he played 57 games it says on his wiki in a promoted team which is impressive. The shrewsbury goal was a wicked cross just made for their giant centre-back to attack and difficult for craig to deal with but todays goal looked soft. |
