⚽ Match Thread vs. Salford City [EFL L2] 23.03.24

Just listening to the loser on the radio.

WHAT GAME WAS HE WATCHING? WHAT A ****.

it was a false reading on tuesday cos bradford are worse than us
maynard tactics are shocking
how have we become a team that's worried about what we can't do as opposed to what we can do?
i would get rid of
slocombe
brindley
rawlinson
cameron
cameron
cameron
cameron
chicksen
austin
langstaff
morias
randall

Both goals were caused by really weak play in centre-midfield.
We have to be stronger there, they mugged us twice. Cameron was very poor for the first, but we shouldn't have players breaking on us due to weak midfield play in the first place.

This. Didn’t enjoy it today at all. Even when we played well for all of 5 minutes, you had that feeling it wouldn’t last. And it didn’t. Absolute tosh.
Wasted the momentum from Tuesday by atrocious, slow football first half.

Season is now finished.

Clear them out. Start again with a new manager, who has some control over the signings.
Get rid of the defence and change the system to 4 at the back with players that know their roles.

Surprised at the attendance as it looked lower than that tbh. Can’t blame people for staying away though. Bloody freezing!

Not enough Camerons (or Stones) and too many Langstaffs

David Jackson noting that Maynard was "bullish" about the performance but wonders what he's comparing it to, going on to say it was nothing like as good as earlier in the season (implying before he arrived). Stall agreeing - not same intensity or attacking threat, "we seem to have lost belief."

Contract or no contract the only ones I would keep for next year are. ML, Crowley, Macari, Robbo, Jaffacake, JJ, Slocombe (on the bench). Come the end of the season Notts should hire a minibus and ship the rest of the crap out of Nottingham, SM can drive the bugger.

I know we have opposing views on Cameron, but surely, as his greatest supporter, you’ve got to admit the centre half playing for the dog and duck tomorrow morning looks better than Cameron.
No commitment at all and spends all his time throwing his hands in the air in frustration when he lets goals in.
Captain? FFS.

"moments", "moments", "moments"

If that counts as a good performance to him them we've got even more to worry about that I thought. We were totally outfought, lacked any semblance of movement and creativity and we're thoroughly 2nd best throughout yet again.

And flipping off the notts fans in the pavis for having a go at him for passing it back to Slocombe for the 100000th time when we desperately need a goal.
