Played them off the park ? For 45 mins yes but football is over 90 mins and we didn't show up in second half . This has happened time and Again this season. Try looking on X you will see most are posting similar comments , we are not in the minority.Quote:

I really do not see today as the horror show some are seeing it as. Excellent first half in which we should have been at least 1-0 up.
Second half was not quite as on it and we conceded two crap goals. Not goals where we were pulled apart, but two crap, mistake led goals. Not Matty Platts best afternoon with the ball at feet, but he has been a colossus all season and will continue to be so.
I think second half, when we got the ball out wide, we should have been a bit more direct, especially on the right. Gordon can deliver a good ball but I would like to have seen a little more variety from him, went round the outside too often. Weirdly, we could have probably benefited from an inverted RWB in the second half given the space Gordon had.
I understand the frustrations. I get the things people do not like about how we set up and play. But some reactions are so overblown given the whole picture it is baffling.
You're the one who needs to calm down EVERY SINGLE WEEK sack Maynard blah blah blah if we dont win.Quote:

Seriously none of us know what is going to happen that is why people pay their money each week to see what happens.

I think you will find many want him gone and you are in the minorityQuote:

Tremendous!
As of tonight, Wimbledon are on course to take 3rd place with 78 points. That would be about as low an amount of points you're ever likely to see getting auto promotion with. We're clearly still in contention as our promotion rivals' results are equally inconsistent and unpredicatble (see Bradford today) but if Notts miss out, the most obvious short coming looks like it will be dropping points at home..... we are 2nd in the away table but way down in 10th at home (below Newport, Barrow and Cheltenham having played the same amount at home as two of those three).
I know they would be happy just to " stay in the division forever "Quote:

Today was another one unfortunately.
