Never understand how your main striker can't take a penalty and nothing like a commentator who bigs up our players right before taking pens (jesus never heard of jinxing it!) Shame as i thought we played well and yet again missed chances, I'd have left Sea on as he was a threat. Free weekend to rest now and then be very interesting to see our 11 vs Morcambe because some of these lads played better than the team on Tuesday!

We have four days without a game so most who played Tuesday should be fresh.
Popular side since '03.

Penalties aside ( wtf Quigs??) That was a good performance. Sea looked dangerous and surely made a case for a start or two. Gribbin looked much improved. Wilson was excellent at the back. Kay was pinging some lovely passes and dangerous crosses. Nobody let us down in any way tonight.
Least said about penalties the better.....

Another loss. Am I surprised? Not in the least.

League 1 team.win after being held to a goalless draw after 120 mins of football. We were well into the game.
We go on to the next league game which has to be our priority. The money would have been nice though.

Unable to watch tonight, tech/broadband issues. Disappointed as progress would have given the club much needed money. Concentrate now on establishing ourselves in this league.

There is a common theme here of having no balls when the pressure is on !!

Played well enough tonight against a L1 side. Not massively bothered about the penalty result. Need to firm up in the league now, and get supporters into the ground as safely and efficiently as possible.
Gribben is an enigma. Capable of opening up the opposition, but doesn’t seem interested in doing the hard yards essential at L1/L2 level. I so want him to be good because he obviously is talented, but just seems a bit louche as a footballer. Only plays with the ball. No bad performances though. Still very hopeful for the season.

Plenty of players out there putting in a good case for starting more games.
Shame tonight because it was a far far better performance than the Oldham game. Lots for Dunn to think about.

If Quigs was nervous (really?) then the last thing he should do is try some clever, 'trick' penalty.
Don't let the old man in.

Not nice to lose that but some of the downright negative comments are a bit hard to understand. League 1 side, we held them goalless, hit the woodwork, had plenty of attacking threat and took them all the way to penalties. All with a very changed lineup of players who haven't been starting regularly this season. I'd say if there was ever a game to take positives in defeat, that was it.
