    Team from the coast Vs Team on the beach

    Totally agree, had we not paid stupid wages to old players, not good enough for The Championship, not only would we have stood a better chance last season but we wouldn't have made the huge financial losses. You just have eto be sensible when going up, don't overpay wages on older past it...

    Who would you like to keep for next season?

    Keepers Tickle - Keep Amos - Let go Right backs Clare - Let go Sessegon - Keep as back up Left backs Pearce - Keep if wages very low Chambers - Let go (no chance of staying) Centre backs Hughes - Let go (far too good for L1, if get a decent 8 figure fee, would fund multiple signings and...

    Punting on the Cam vs Walking on the Duggie

    Second half in the same position, Cambridge took just as long but were allowed to keep the throw in. First time I'd seen it switched teams too after taking too long but showed a lack of consistency from the referee.

    Fined Again!

    He was about 30 yards away from the Bolton fans, he simply cupped his hands to his ears after stick received during the game, as he walked towards where the most vocal, highest concentration of home supporters was. There was absolutely no need for any reaction from Bolton players or manager. Had...

    Fined Again!

    The first sentence change that to we know the EFL can't wait to fine us. I've seen multiple instances of opposition surrounding the referees when playing us after incidents and not getting a charge after. Completely inconsistent. We lost a league high of 12 points this season due to refereeing...

    Rate the Ref

    Totally agree, let the game flow, didn't give any soft free kicks, told players from both teams to get up if they went down easily. Only major decision was the red card which was an absolute stone waller and probably the most straight forward red, he'll give in his career. Didn't needlessly...

    The Oh's versus the O's

    Kerr man of the match today, oozed Championship class. He has to start every game when fit. Absolutely miles clear of Goode and is our own player, can't understand why he's sat on the bench.

    It's happened again,

    The thing is it's not a case of being inconsistent were one game we play well then the next we play badly irrespective of the opponent. We are consistently playing well home and away to the top sides and consistently playing play woefully with a big lack of effort against the weaker sides...

    Fisherman's Friends versus Uncle Joe's balls

    The lack of effort from players against the bottom half teams has been there all season. They just can't motivate themselves and I don't know why. Would back us home or away against the stronger sides, but expect to lose all games against the bottom half with the effort put in. I don't...

    Fisherman's Friends versus Uncle Joe's balls

    It was definitely 3 at the back with wing backs against Bolton, in fact for a lot if was 5 at the back with the 2 Smiths quite deep until we broke with the ball. The heat map on sofascore, showing the average position of each player during the match backs up that is was a 3 centre back...

    25000 crowd for rugby

    That was made up and was the never the case. It was down to objects being thrown and away fans repeatedly running down and along the front of the stand below the seats. Considering this happens across all grounds and others don't have this restriction aside from Blackpool, who have it even worse...

    Uz v U's.....matchday thread

    Goode is massively out of his depth at this level, maybe the injuries he's suffered has finished him off, as there must have been something there for Brentford to sign him in the first place. Absolutely nowhere near Morrisons level or Kerr pre injury. To be honest I think Kerr on crutches...

    the posh v the piss poor

    Totally agree. Wycombe was a prime example, 3 times Jones is wiped out from.behind cynically, twice by the same player, their right back Grimmer. Then shortly after the 3rd wipe out, Jones is tight on a player who has his back to goal near the corner flag, he back heels the ball passed Jones and...

    the posh v the piss poor

    I think also it's clear Morrison won't be with us next season and Goode has been brought in with the aim to convert to a permanent signing in the Summer, once his contract expires. So through no fault of his own, Morrison has fallen victim to being a loan player who isn't here for the long term...

    JANUARY WINDOW THREAD

    A very good window. Didn't lose any proper assets. Our two highest earners in Wyke and Lang gone with wages either covered in full or the majority of. Based on form of the last 3 months, neither deserved to be in the 18 man matchday squad and didn't fit Maloneys style and only kept getting...

    Callum Lang

    To be fair around 90% of the time under Richardson he played on the right but when he played as a 10 or upfront he did well, Lincoln, Cambridge, Portsmouth and Plymouth away spring to mind where he played centrally, he was great in all and scored in all. Post Richardson he played probably 90%...

    Callum Lang

    To be fair he said in his interview after joining Portsmouth he prefers the long ball game and running onto balls, which is what we had under Richardson. Maybe the ball to feet which clearly didn't suit him of the last 18 months was more to blame than a switch in position as as he's come on in...

    Sewerage v Stevenage

    That is the whole problem, their number 5 should have clearly been sent off first half and both of their centre half's first touches were pretty poor, they lacked pace and just kept cynically fouling. That ain't good defending, it's bad refereeing.

    Sewerage v Stevenage

    You win a game by putting the ball in the back of the net more than the opponent. So when you do that legitimately 3 times and the opponent twice legitimately, you should come away with the three points. Irrespective of performances, it should be who puts the ball in the net the most. We were...

    Sewerage v Stevenage

    The second half was poor but Stevenage created nothing aside from set pieces and us stupidly losing possession. A ridiculous number of their free kicks were dives and conned the referee. Without the diving Stevenage contributed near nothing. We deserved a 3-1 half time lead and disgracefully...
