That aged well.There's no clear evidence to support any positive thinking. A coach with no knowledge of league1 has brought in a bunch of mid 20's league2, released and young reserve players. I would add that Mansford and Johnson have to share the blame for the bizarre recruitment policy.
You don't want an argument but you post to insult meYou accuse someone of being snide by being overtly snide. That's what I meant. And I do think that your spine has been a bigger problem than the team's spine throughout the season. Fortunately Critch's spine was significantly more robust. I don't want an argument but your constant sniping for weeks and months on end was tiresome to say the least.

I feel a Phil rant coming
It was accurate at the time.That aged well.
Ok we have had a couple of poor results and performances but I honestly believe from what I know is going on behind the scenes that we will be ok. I would even dare to believe that with the positivity I have witnessed that this season could still be one that we will be celebrating come May.
I say it often but I think Kenny Dougall was a wonderful find and what turned our fortunes around. I know a lot attribute the turnaround to Critch bringing in Calderwood but for me Dougall was a masterstroke if he hadn't have caught Covid I think we would have been automaticThe spine improved when Ballard was brought in on loan, Dougall was signed and Madine was eventually selected, helping Yates enormously. Maxwell is having the season of his professional career.
That could well be true. We lost our snap for a while when Kenny was on the couch. Fantastic as it is to be safely in the playoffs with a game to play, it hurts to consider how close we were to automatic. There again, I suppose rivals could point to moments when things went against them too....I say it often but I think Kenny Dougall was a wonderful find and what turned our fortunes around.

I know Mark it hurts me a bit too even just these last 8 dropped points (2 at Lincoln and the 2 defeats against Rochdale and Shrewsbury) would now have us 1 point above Peterborough going into the final game with it all in our hands.That could well be true.

Spot on Lee - we all start equal once the playoffs begin. Let's hope we're on a roll.I know Mark it hurts me a bit too even just these last 8 dropped points (2 at Lincoln and the 2 defeats against Rochdale and Shrewsbury) would now have us 1 point above Peterborough going into the final game with it all in our hands.
Going up through the play-offs is the glory way and if it was guaranteed I would choose it every time but it's a horrible feeling if you come up short we are the most successful play-off team but we have tasted defeat and it's a real sickener. Hoping we can do it but there are 2 clubs standing in our way and they will want it just as bad as us,
I think we can do it we are good enough to beat anyone in this division but we can also lose against Rochdale I'm putting that down to injuries and tiredness
Whatever mate. You're obviously very rattled.You don't want an argument but you post to insult me
So you are getting a fcuking argument..
I haven't sniped for weeks or months at all
I have been critical of the manager at various parts of the season and I've also praised
We started the season under prepared in terms of key personal in important positions
We started the seaon with a 'weak spine'
That can't be denied
Yet choosing to be critical of me personally from your keyboard for having an opinion on football on a football forum is lower than snakes belly
Isn't the saying play the ball not the man ?
I'm more than happy to discuss your comments face to face
Shame that there’s still a couple on here who still can’t get over themselvesI am pleased that my pessimism was misplaced.
