Same score and conceded goals as last season.

Need to sort that right wing out. JDC never seems to be injured and he's consistently poor. Corners came from possession lost by him. That said we should know how to defend as that wad their only threat.

Point saved by Demps and Schon.

I mean surely no one thinks we can get promoted under this current set up? Shipping goals at an alarming rate.

Dreadful result. All down to our first half performance. Then terrible substitution decisions.

We are meant to be promoted. We look miles off. Attitude dreadful. Rioch would have this lot on toast for their lack of desire and effort.

Ref was a prick. 8 mins and didn't account for any time wasting. Literally blew as Savin was taking an age to take the goal kick. So much so the whistle went before he took it.

Nice of them to turn up and play for 35 mins. (45-80)

Red card for Evatt, putting his head to their captain. Disgraceful. Sure you can bemoan the lack of additional injury time but clashing heads with their player is poor.


Same result as last season. Lack of professionalism in that first half strikes again. Nowhere near the level of performance that was required. Second half looked like we deserved to get the win, but they left it too late.

Dropping points against the whooping boys of the league. Strikers will win us games, defence will get us promoted. Our defence just isn't getting enough clean sheets.

We shouldn't be relying upon 10 mins of extra time, but you're right. 8 mins was the minimum, they took an age and the ref let them get away with it by blowing bang on 8 mins. We've got a right to be complaining.

Evatt has lost his head
We’ll probably get some woe is me spiel in the post match. Same as Huddersfield nonsense. He isn’t turning this round it’s same old same old. We Literally conceded the same goal to the same player as last season. Astounding.

There's enough time in a game for either side to win it. That we didn't is sod all to do with time. That's just a sideshow.

It's simply not good enough yet again - we are making absolutely zero progress, one step forward two steps back.

The club is stagnant & going nowhere anytime soon. It's like a rudderless ship.

This team can’t do the bare minimum week in week out. I don’t think there is much to enjoy in it. Minimum is desire and effort. Mentality has been poor for years and still is. Not much you can be proud of.

Oh and Arfield what is that all about - I thought that it was a decent experienced tough tackling midfield signing, but he's absolutely awful, surely we have reserve players better then him - again what due diligence is done with our signings ?

Also, I don't understand the thought process of changing the front two after a previous win - his subs yet again were robotic & pre planned.

He hasn’t got a plan B
We never win games from behind.
Arfield at best is a sub to use his experience to slow a game down when we are hanging on

To bring him on when chasing over Lolos who is supposedly attack minded seems a bit fecking foolish to me. From what I’ve seen of Arfields finishing it’s woeful.

I think Ian needs to leave because he'll never be good enough. 4 games unbeaten however he's got no room for error.

The players lost that 1st half. The half time bollocking won the second.

Players like JDC and Toal strolling and gifting possession cannot be forseen.

Evatt will be in trouble with the FA and will get no sympathy from the fans because they don't like him.

I'm done trying to support him as it's on deaf ears but it's a lonely place when regardless of what you do you're not liked. It's so exhausting supporting this club as it'll never change.

Before kick off we were expected to win and the demands are set. Doesn't go that way and the boos ring out because we expect the team to easily put Shrewsbury to one side.

Our manager has lost an excessive amount of weight and is now showing how frustrated he is.

Sense of Irony when he's done this on a day where mental health has been championed.

Do feel sorry for him as he's battling us all. Never mind though as the next man will be in for us all to do it again.

Bollocks to it.

It’s Groundhog Day though isn’t it? We literally make the same mistakes season on season - the goal today! Did nobody think to watch the game back from last time, how they played, how they set up at corners? We can’t keep conceding two goals plus a game!

I mean we’re all supposed to be nice to santos now but we’ve had countless centre halves nowhere near his size at this level who bury that chance. He’s no David Wheater or Mark Beevers.

Great point Dibs, if you want to win the game you bring Lolos on or change to 4 at the back - tactically the guy is fecking clueless, when we 1st got Evatt I was absolutely made up with all the talk about Barrowcelona and how forward thinking he was - when in reality he's actually a bit of a dinosaur committed to his 5 at the back, tactically inflexible & somewhat robotic in his in game approach.

I do like his passion, but he's simply not as good as Ian Evatt thinks he is.

It’s the players who need the brunt of the discontent tonight.

However ‘he’ll never be good enough’ is cracking me up. We are in league one for the fourth season after spending a fortune the last two. Never be good enough. Haha. I’ll have some of that.
