Last season the football under GC was not pretty but we got results, which ultimately kept us up and we had one of the best defences we’ve had for years. Now most of those defenders are gone, the midfield is the same and our only decent striker is not yet match fit.
It makes no difference if we start with one or five up front. Next two home games are now massive.
Firstly we actually have to find a way to score a goal! If we don’t win at least one of the next two we are in big trouble. Even this early on.

Wtf?! As I’ve said before this club is going to pay for not pushing the boat out to make Bonham our permanent keeper. Bit dramatic. Don't think Jaakola has done too much wrong even if I would have liked Bonham here. It’s not a one-off though, have a penno away to Blackpool and looks the clown there. Teams will be targeting our keeper soon and trying to have a man on him at all times for brain farts like the pen and that juggling act above. |

Nice to see everyone already wanting to sack the manager after 3 poor games and the transfer window not even closed yet. Oh I do love you gaschat. I think the frustration breeds from the fact we can all see the issue in the team. Lack of creativity, width and pace, yet he hasn’t addressed this. Maybe he hasn't addressed this because he's wanting us to get top players rather than settle, like we did for Payne. |

I would rather pay to release GC and get a manager with a more attacking philosophy than give GC the remainder of whatever we have to spend (if anything) But the signings aren't the problem. He's done well on that front. |

Clearly you haven’t attended the last 3 league games if you’re content or willing to give Coughlan more time. He’s had all summer and this is what he’s produced. I’d rather go down having a go and playing open expansive football, as it is we sit back and lump it and still get dicked every game. Time to go. |

We were f**ked and down until JHC came in Jan when we struck lighting a bottle with him. We have not addressed our attacking play,or mainly the midfield.We are awlful.Its a disgrace that we did not make changes in this area,no excuse. Our scouting is bollocks, let’s be honest. Okay JCH was a find, fair play, but the rest are not good value for money. If we get rid of GC the problem still remains that we can’t seem to get XI decent players together, they are mostly crap. I think we may need to go backwards to go forwards to establish a long term identity to the club. But fat chance of that when you are run by people who don’t want to be here. I agree. I thought this was all being sorted when DC was in charge and Weal and co signed all these people to different roles at the club.Why else is our wage bill so high? Its going to be a long bumpy ride back to shore when the captain of our ship (the owners) does really want to go to the same coastline that our club and fans need. |

0 shots on target you couldn’t make it up.

I thought we'd already seen and done that, with the absolute embarrassment of dropping to The Conference and playing and losing to Altringham and Braintree. |

That was as bad a performance as we ever saw under Darrell.
No fight, no idea, no desire, no will to win, no width, no protection for our full backs (who I feel sorry for most) no creativity and absolutely no respect for the travelling faithful who were once again the only ones to show up.
The players could not leave the pitch quick enough and whilst I’ll never agree with Booing after 3 games, the chants of “that was embarrassing” were totally justified and the players/coaching staff heard it, no question. They should hang their heads in shame offering up such a woeful showing.
Two home games ahead and Graham’s back is well against the wall already. Nothing less than 4 points will do, or the murmurs of discontent will be fully felt, if not already.

Only 4 shots on target in 3 games, absolute rubbish.

Coughlan has already shown he has a huge lack of skill and experience. If he thinks that is quality our support for him and the so called board is lessening every day. Before we get a new ground we need a team to play in it. That was utter dire!!!!

I am glad I did not commit to renewing my season ticket based on what has been reported back from the three matches so far. If the fans are already singing that was embarrassing, then we are in real trouble. No goals in three games, no shots on target today and one point. We always start slowly but this is not slowly, it is full stop. GC has not resolved. The issues from last year and has no plan B. Thanks for last year but think you are out of your depth.

Personally and despite GC saving us from relegation I can only say that I am still on the fence with the decision made in making him the Gaffer.
I don't dislike him but I'm not overly filled with confidence either.
Just my opinion though!

I'm normally pretty positive & the negativity after a defeat frustrates the hell out of me but after watching that today I can completely understand it. We could have a front 2 of Aguero & Kane and we'd still struggle to score. Zero creativity from the midfield and full backs who despite having no protection & constantly faced with being 2 on 1 are still expected to be our wide threats.
Massive couple of weeks ahead we simply have to bring in a winger & creative midfielder otherwise were facing a long long season.

0 shots on target you couldn’t make it up. We only had 1 in our last league game away. So yes actually you probably could. 😉😫 |

I thought pre-season we were heading for 46 0-0 draws.
Well - at least I'm getting half of that prediction right.
