Anyone else think Nichols might be suited to a midfield role? On current performances I’d put him in ahead of Bennett. Pressure off a bit and he is technically one of our best players. I’d go 4-5-1 today and keep it tight.... jak up top simply for his pace.... You never know we might just sneak something today with the right set up. Can easily go 4-4-2 if behind! Safe travels to all going.... do the club proud and sing nice and loud! Have this on a few threads. In the Bennet role, Nichols has more strength and just as if not more creative

Cotteril a big no from me, comes over as an arrogant twat. Warburton would be good, but would we get him? Ferguson has not done much in his recent appointments but might keep us up with his connections, again would we get him? Flynn inexperienced but then so was DC Hurst not convinced with him, but may better than the rest on the sad bookies list of journeymen

Not sure if Jackubiak and Reilly have it at this level. Nothing to lose play them both with Nicholls in place of Bennet Nichols has more physical strength than Bennet and can be just as creative if not more in this role. Place also should be found for Broadbent with instructions to play it simple to a teammate. Lockyer with the same instruction. A place in the squad should be found for Rollin probably on the bench but start getting him involved. Leadbitter over Partington however for this game J.Clark should start at R/B If we can create anything the ball must be kept on the grass to, as we are to small up front to lump it. Players should make their selves available when the keeper has the ball, just to punt the ball up field will mean we will be put immediately under pressure.

Bonham 5 All marks for players include one for turning up and being generous Partington 3 J. Clarke 4 Lockyer 4 Craig 4 Martin 4
Lines 3.5 O. Clarke 3.5 Sercombe 6
Nichols 3 Payne 3
Subs: Bennett 2.5 Rodman 3 Jakubiak 2.5
Crowd 7 Deserves so much better Ref 6 Done ok Doncaster 8 So much better than us in all departments and won the game so easily
Rovers. To early to say relegation but we must be one of the odds on favourites unless something drastic happens. This does not necessarily mean replacing the manager, but perhaps a Lennie Lawrence type to help DC and getting rid of some of the present useless coaches and faceless hierarchy immediately, as well of some players in January.

Roll the dice and end up with a manager who will can improve the situation or end up with another Mark McGhee type. Best at the moment not to roll the dice but someone (perhaps our non existent owners ) to have a word in DCs ear to change some of his tinkering and tactics slightly might help.

Perhaps I am implying something as it stands today, that not many can see happening, including yourself Football is a funny old game and your quite right chances are being created and can suddenly end up in the net and with Nicols scoring who knows what may happen The weaknesses are there for all to see, the squad is at the moment not good enough, and with it being mentioned that it is unlikely to change much in January ( although this may be DC bluffing ) and with our non existent owners not saying anything there is unfortunately a bad feel being created at the club. Who knows the rumours may be true and they want to get out and are in the middle of selling Regarding the keepers I said two keepers perhaps I should have said, the one at Lincoln and the one who played against Barnet Not the loan keeper. Bye the way I am not resigned to relegation and your quite right it’s only November, but as it stands today creating chances does not get you anywhere except where we are, unless of course you take some of them, That is the reality of our situation, and nobody would be happier and proved wrong, starting next Saturday

If you cannot see we are not sleep walking towards relegation with this squad of players, you watch different games than I do To many small lightweight players who are not good enough Cannot cross a decent ball to a forward who cannot jump A midfield who are not creative enough No width in the team Two goalkeepers who are not good enough Forwards who cannot score Owners who have disappeared Manager saying we won’t be signing any players in January Apart from all that were ok

Yeah, the trouble is we're in this 'we shouldn't even be in this place' place. If we'd just got to the Championship then everyone would be ready to hit the ground running and support us through an obvious relegation battle, and no matter how many we'd be losing by, everyone would be up for it. While we arse about at say below halfway to 20th in League 1, people can't make up their mind whether to moan about an averagely poor season, or to really get their relegation struggle boots on. That's part of the reason we got relegated to the conference, imo, no one really believed we were in a relegation struggle until just before the Wycombe game, and then once we won that, no one really believed we'd go down. A lot of the people that stand around me at matches seem to be resigned to relegation this season which I think is strange considering we haven’t spent much time in the relegation zone and there is a lot of the season left to played. I think it’s mainly due to the sudden downturn in our home form that is influencing most people’s opinions, they can only see what is in front of them and to go from one of the best home records in the league to 6 defeats in 9 this season seems to have convinced most that we will struggle to survive. We’re not sleepwalking towards relegation this time, we seem to be have almost been consigned to it by a section of supporters and that to me is even worse. I want to see this can do attitude return to us and a belief that we are better than what we are performing at the moment but this will only happen once we get a couple of home wins under our belt and with Barnet and Gillingham being the next two visitors to the mem there is no better time to do it.

Are the we the most patient supporters in the country who are able to accept or tolerate delays, problems, or deathly silence without becoming annoyed. We are, it would appear sleepwalking into a distinct possibility of relegation or a lot worse I am now at the end of the road with no feedback, no nothing from our owner/s who I believe are taking the p**s out of us all.

Bonham 5.5 Not so assured today
Leadbitter 5 Promising runs again with a poor end product J. Clarke 5 Mr. reliable but got caught for pace on occasions Craig 5.5 Above average performance and steady Martin 5.5 Surprisingly not that bad
Bennett 4 Flatters to deceive but offers very little. Lines 4.5 Not one of his better games but showed little flashes of his quality but not from free kicks. O. Clarke 4 Not one of his better games ineffective Sercombe 6.5 Just about deserved MoM
Nichols 6 People claim he should not be in the side but to be replaced with whom, players who are not good enough and offer even less overall Payne 5 Tried hard enough, but one who is not good enough
Subs: Matthews Nole, another not good enough Jakubiak Nole, also not good enough Rodman Nole,
Crowd (5) and manager let down by whoever is in control of this club, especially with DC comments after the game, relegation is a distinct possibility Ref 4.5 Seen worse
Scunthorpe 5 Thought at H/T we would go on and win the game, however they probably deserved it come the end without having to do much, except professionally seeing the game out
