Fleetwood (H) match thread - 27th Feb

[Valiiant]

 

I hope to God I'm wrong but it will more than likely be more of the same. Plenty of huff and puff, no quality in the final third and then eventually getting tired and bringing on players we don't really want to be bringing on but have little choice. But Christ, don't gift the opposition a goal after a few minutes this time and deflate everybody.

I didn't think Gore was ready for L1 men's football. In his first game he started like Paul Scholes, but then the opposition denied him time on the ball and got physical. Outcome he kept giving the ball away. Went off on the hour, which I read as that's the min time we must give him and the team needed more than he could offer. 

He would surely have to improve markedly to play again. Has he gone home or is he injured?

Very harsh to judge on 60 mins albeit he was poor but every player was poor that day we were totally dominated by the league leaders

Hanging Dipepa out to dry ain't the way go he obviously tries but cannot expect a boy do a man's job yet  I like him he gets about better than Wilson .

Personally if he plays loft tonight I'd begin think Moore doesn't watch any of our previous games v Fleetwood away they dealt with the high ball easily bar Debrah goal .

Loft should have been on v Lincoln from.start not tonight .

Tonight we should go with pace at the top and clever good breaking of the lines

I'd play mighten through the middle with Garrity.

DM will have seen the young lads in training. It’s no fluke that those young lads are playing in the u18s today, they just aren’t ready yet.

Let’s hope the team never go into any game with this kind of offhand dismissive opinion of other league one clubs otherwise we deserve to lose. 

It’s not offhand dismissiveness, it’s swaggering arrogance, all the top clubs have it that’s why they stay at the top. We used to have it back in the day, Berne Slaven, RonFutcher, and plenty more. They knew they could win before they got on the pitch. That’s what we are missing confidence and a bit of swaggering arrogance.COME ON THE VALE.

He was shocking. But AC started him and weir against top of the league together. Crazy management and the two young lads never had a chance. I’d like to see him against sides around us in the league where he has freedom, not constant pressure from the best side in the league.

I take it you didn't go the Lincoln home game 😆

The pitch is better now than ever, you should have seen it 30 years ago it had no grass on it. Look at Tottenham game. Don’t complain about it now it’s like a bowling green compared to then.

Opposition seem able to win for the last 2 seasons on our pitch

Surely tonight we will see some radical change and a different approach to our play?

Climate change is resulting in warmer and wetter weather,  thus improved drainage was required. Irrigation to be improved and possibly a hybrid pitch later.
