Cheltenham Town v Blackpool Official Matchnight Thread 13.02.24

[incredible_edibles]

Has someone put on the Fleetwood away game on by mistake here? It’s exactly the same game!

 

[BFCAleman]

Critchley please go !

 

[tangysider]

Grimshaw glued to his line for every cross that comes into box

O Donnell at least commands the box
Grimmy not doing enough at the moment

 

[brightontangerine]

This is Burton mak 2

It's worse

 

[Bandagem]

Long way to go, but Jeez how boring are we to watch. Not seen us lose so many headers for a long time.

It will all change on Tuesday when a possible chance of a Wembley appearance is at stake! Watch them show passion, effort and commitment for that one!

 

[Mark_GT]

Not a single tactical change made. But don't worry, we'll have like for like subs on 65 minutes.

 

[JJpool]

Stevenage winning 2-0

Was 2-1 ages ago...

 

[hertfordseasider]

FFS I’ve being saying for weeks that Critchley is not a manager.

WTF was Sadler doing with his feckin algorithms.

Sadler and Critchley are like clones, they are both as dull as ditchwater!

 

[Towerpower99]

The life is being sucked out of the club….

 

[Wizzerboy]

Apter smashing it again for Tranmere, but he's not good enough for us, so we persist with CJ who has more bad games than good. Got to the point I feel like Critchley hasn't got a clue.

Took you this long did it

 

[TangerineArmy]

All we do is knock it fecking sideways and back... it is so awful.

And we know he won't make any subs till 70 mins even if not had a shot by then.

 

[hertfordseasider]

Not a single tactical change made. But don't worry, we'll have like for like subs on 65 minutes.

70, get it right

 

[SussexTangerine8888]

I want to see Critchley go. I know that sounds reactionary but I’ve had enough of this balls

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Once again, players adapting to a formation rather than a formation being adapted to the players we have.

It's absolutely mind boggling. Really don't get why some people still believe in this shite.

 

[I bleed Tangerine]

I'd like to see the players actually give a shit. Feel like since last season they've all given up. Not a single one out there looks like he cares. Critchley stood with his arms folded as well, show some passion you ** melt.

 

[no9]

We quite simply cannot cope with these teams and I’m lost to why we haven’t changed our formation away from home.

Flat back 4 with Casey and Marv and if needed play Hubby and Penn as big defensive full backs

At home this formation suits us well but away against land of the giants it struggles

Exactly and I like CJ but not starting away from home when it’s a battle for fucks sake.

 

[911_Kirky]

I saw enough Saturday- absolutely awful, dull football! I think Critch has had enough time!

 

[Paul Gardner No2]

Scary thing is we have created FA!!!

 

[hertfordseasider]

Why on earth is this idiot still playing this formation away from home

Its the definition of madness

We have miles better players than ** Cheltenham but this idiots hamstrings us week in week out

CJ isn't a ** wingback

He needs to be potted if we lose this because we will get stuffed on Saturday

 

[Always tangerine]

Husband terrible.Slow, poor use of ball.

 

[Roy Kent]

I

Was 2-1 ages ago...

i think it still is…..

But if we lose to teams like this it doesn’t really matter

So frustrating

 

[bleed_the_freak]

So painful to watch, and even if we do scab a win, tonight simply highlights how far we are behind other top 6 teams

Like a bunch of strangers always looking to pass the ball backwards

 

[20togo]

we usually dominate possession but we can't even do that here.

 

[TommyHutch]

Grimshaw is just not good enough.

Are any of them?

 

[Ormergod]

This is utter shite

Need a rocket at half time please

 

[Satriale's Pork Store]

Embarrassing...

just cannot defend corners and the shot seeemed to go through Grimshaw!

 

[BFC4EVA]

It's like moving the deck chairs on the prom!
However, the selected players have more than enough to win this game. If we're going to challenge for the play off's, we have to put teams near the bottom of the league to the sword.
3-.

 

[traffordtang]

70, get it right

Could be 73. He might try to fool the opposition

 

[TangerineArmy]

Watching this how are we not 3rd bottom? And 2 down.. well done grimmy

 

[mropinion]

Contender for worst half of football this season. More of the same second half Critch

 

[hertfordseasider]

Could have been 2 then, great save

 

[incredible_edibles]

Good save Grimmy - about the one decent thing from the first half.

 

[TangerineEggCup]

This is Grayson all over

 

[Marcusbeansontoast]

It’s a good job Kouassi is built like He-man for his sake

 

[rememberlesshannon]

Never mind the players, I've stopped giving a shit turned the City game on. We've lost our identity as a club, absolutely beige.

 

[Roy Kent]

Good save but how did it get to him - shambles at the back again

 

[JJpool]

Lucky it was at the keeper there, decent stop.

This is awful against a poor side.

 

[NewburyOne]

£1m English pounds for Kyle Joseph, absolute garbage again.

 

[HetzkeBlaster]

Do you not think that against a team at the bottom of the league, that Critch would leave CJ up for their corners to draw a couple of defenders back? Critch is so risk averse

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

That had 2-0 written all over it,great save

 

[Mark_GT]

70, get it right

Yeah, it takes them that long to consult the ipad and piss about with a few bits of paper.
Still I'm sure Critchley will own his mistakes

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

At least we’ve moved from 8th place.

Down to 9th as it stands.

 

[Satriale's Pork Store]

This is utter shite

Need a rocket at half time please

What, to send NC and his two stooges to a distant planet?

 

[maxnix]

Any Critchley bumspider watching this…wonder what bullshit they will come out with to justify him staying on after this fiasco

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

This is funny but sad at the same time.

 

[TangerineBayern]

Wow this is just fcuking awful l didn’t think it could get any worse! If Critch doesn’t change anything at HT this is going to be even worse!

 

[Wizzerboy]

Lalalalalalalala I can’t here you

Hear

 

[TangerineDan]

Fellow Pool fans, at the game at Whaddon Rd, I’m one of the most positive Pool fans on this site but I have to concede we are so it is literally unbelievable!! No effort on target that I can remember!! Disgraceful!!

 

[Roy Kent]

God we need half time

 

[M61Exile]

0 shots on target and their keeper looks a liability.
