Pretty much agree with that, I was screaming at Palmer to shoot and tbf it?s not the first time. The challenge is we?ve been over reliant on Jatta and Didzy, so when we?re missing Didzy and Jattas not taking chances our goal threat somewhat disappears.

Jatta on duty next weekend so we?re totally reliant on 37 year old Didz. I can?t wait.

*Unlucky* teams ultimately fail.

And failure (in the playoffs) is where we are heading. We all know it, sadly, though there are some who would never dream of acknowledging it.

Never mind, eh?

Sounds like Traore will be back. We'd be better off leaving Didzy where he is. If not Traore play Whitaker up there and pray he does a Langstaff impersonation

Come on people are entitled to their opinions, you don?t go to the games so why are you so bothered how the season works out?

Usually it's the in-form team that people expect to win the play offs, though last season Doncaster were that team and were knocked out in the semis by Crewe who were the 2nd worst team in the division during the fourth quarter of the season. So that at least would lend some weight to the "it's a lottery" theory.

Chillingly, there's still a chance we could end up with the same scenario as 1995/96, playing Crewe in the semis and then Bradford in the final after a season that - as quite a few have said about the current one - "never felt like a promotion campaign". Would heal a few old wounds though if we were to beat Bradford City in the final.

Ok, comical_ali_magpie, I will bite.

Of course people are entitled to their opinions. I have never said otherwise. I think you are almost exclusively wrong in your opinions, but you are absolutely entitled to be wrong.

On a different note, how on earth would you know if I go to games or not? You have never met me and believe me, I certainly have no wish to meet you. You are totally insufferable.

However, you may have heard that it is possible to post on a message board whilst in a football ground. Amazing - I know. You can do all sorts these days. Maybe you could try it - though I would expect that doing more than one thing at once is a struggle for you.

For your information, I had tickets to attend today but was unable to go due to a family bereavement, but please do not let that stop you taking cheap shots with no knowledge as to what you are talking about (as ever).

Apart from the defensive rebuild for this season I question were the excellence is?

Recruitment overall I mean - so the fact that head coaches and players keep getting poached by higher level clubs, the hit/miss ratio with new players being higher than just about ever etc etc.

Recruitment this season OTHER than the complete defence rebuild? That's asking a lot, and TBH I think the jury's still out on it. Bunch of new players still figuring out which end of the ball to kick so far.

I go on that fact a lot of home games your putting the knife in during the games, Barrow the one before this, so unless you?re sat on this message board all game which is pretty sad and have managed to get decent signal in the meadow lane black hole I find it hard to believe.

So you?re accusing me of taking cheap shots because I had no knowledge of your family bereavement but you?ve spent your day taking cheap shots at others, I rest my case.
