    Going down with a whimper

    Talk about already on the beach.Disgraceful performances from many players today.They dont give a toss about the club.Bruun Larsen passed to Brighton players 4 times in a row when he came on.Just what do they do down at Gawthorpe?
    They can all go in the Summer as far as I am concerned along with Clueless Cardy.

    Well I?m just back home after what can only be described as inept

    I really don?t mind getting beat with better teams but our downfall is our own making - I?m like a record with a scratch in it we do. Not track runners and the opposition walk through us with ease - it?s the basics of better football and Anthony today on the first goal just let them have it , at this level of football you get punished and we did.

    The second goal well what can I say we decided 2nd half to play all our football in our own third again with very little urgency to get forward and hurt Brighton - I honestly believe we?ve played sideways and backwards so much now that we can?t change it even if we want to - we made substitutes that didn?t change anything just one for one with no plan how to get up the field quickly or get ourselves of our favourite camping spot our own 18 yard box.

    The man in charge as nice as he is is so far out of his depth it?s unbelievable imo anyway

    I cannot and will not watch next season with him in charge - it?s toxic negative and frankly embarrassing - if not now then when are we actually going to have a go at teams we?re down anyway we have nothing to lose and we still play - negative boring football.

    The VAR didn?t help I accept that but I?m just about sick of being served up dross.

    It was obvious to me last year Dave and I said so on numerous occasion and got roasted on here for those comments.We were never fluent going forward even in the Championship under Cardy.It was awful to watch even then but everybody gave him a pass because he got us promotion.I honestly believe he simply got lucky with the defence last year and this season proves it.

    Todays match felt like a pre season friendly. BHA hardly broke sweet and we look like we were going through the motions

    The fans have had enough, the atmosphere was flat and stands empty. I doubt if there was much more than 13,000 home fans on today.

    Wish I had BT

    It?s beyond a joke now -it feels like we don?t even try to win when we already know we are down.
