Got it wrong from when hardcastle went off and Taylor came on. Should have brought on M.Jones and gone more attacking

* We never even looked like scoring. No idea in the final 3rd.
* 'Get Dior Anus on was the call - he'll make a difference' :lol: :lol: :lol:
* No plan, no shape.
* 3 more injuries
Time for a drink.

Hardcastle was having a good game. Very tidy. Will be another big miss if he's out. He looked very uncomfortable so could be a long one.

Jason Taylor had a decent enough game but if you are trying to (whihc we should have) gone MORE like for like then M Jones should have come on.

J Taylor is your man in 2nd half when we need to batten down the hacthes.

I can't comment on the game as I didn't watch it, but regarding injuries etc. on the q/a with Dunn i asked about his strategy with signing players who had previously long term injuries and also players who hadn't played for a long time not surprisingly our media team or Dunn completely ignored this (which I thought) valid question!

I agree, but Mike Jones would hardly have been a game changer either. Another player who can play an awesome sideways or backwards pass, doesn't offer much going forwards though athough he at least has a shot once in a while.

The fact he was our best option for trying to win a game sums up where we are.

Harrison [SwearFilter] Biggins, what is he all about? I'm yet to see him do anything even remotely decent

Angus is poor - really poor . He improved significantly after Xmas last year but has now reverted to type

I thought Jason Taylor did well - better than Mike Jones Imo

Biggins and Beadling no where nearly good enough

Platt , Brough ,Ntlhe played well.

That’s about it

It’s not just the players who are struggling to bridge the gap is it ?? !

Good news is that we have 3 forwards to return and I thought we moved it quicker today than in previous weeks . Some gradual signs of improvement but still toothless and pointless away from home.

Dunn has now only five league wins out of thirty three as a manager. Statistics don’t lie....the man is a manager only in his own mind. I wouldn’t allow him to take charge of an under ten side on the local park. Time for the owners to get the scalpel out and cut him loose. Otherwise, it’s National League football again next season.

Yes we have been hit hard with injuries but lets not have that as an excuse. Harrogate were the better side.

Thats is 6 games in now and worryingly I am not seeng any improvement.
