Stones, Garner, Conlon and Dallas (ok not worked out but clearly a solid signing on paper) aren't abysmal for mid-season recruitment by any stretch.

"Customary play-off disappointment". You make it sound like it hasn't been nearly 20 years since we knew was a play off disappointment was.

It was more like 30.

Eventually we do have to stick with a manager for more than a season and build a stable team. It might as well be Mellon given his pedigree at this level.

Calm down, we're gonna do a Blackpool!

Yeah, Grigg and Mandeville were on the bench too. Almost like Cook wasn't too bothered about winning and was happier to have their league clinching victory at home next week instead

We're probably fortunate Dobra and Colclough didn't start the game

This is the only appropriate sentiment for being on target for our first playoff finish since 2007.

I’d have gone for Nigel Adkins, but he might take the Tranmere job permanently

Gardner needs to start. When he came on we had midfielder who can actually control and the pass the ball we started to look more a threat. Centre mid is the problem that needs addressing We need to take some of that 8,000 Tuesday night attendance money and go and sign a quality centre mid.

I think the defence and attack are very good in isolation, or at least I’m convinced they’re capable of performing to the standard we need. But the midfield is pretty much non existent at the minute and we can’t control games and effectively transition from defence to attack. I’ll give Unsworth the benefit of the doubt that his two first choice midfielders that he’s signed are both injured. So imo he’s entitled to have a run of games when his first choice midfielders are back. I suspect with Green coming back from injury too, we’ll look a much better side overall. But yeah, I’m not in the Unsworth out camp until he’s had a run of games with a full strength side.

What’s with the mass hysteria surrounding Nuttall too? Why is he the boo boy of choice these days? Cause I watched that game yesterday looking for a player who didn’t look shit scared and negative when having the ball at their feet and Nuttall was one of a few that tried to do something positive in possession, who looked like he wanted the ball. He’s nowhere near the worse player in this team.

Fair comments from their gaffer, which also includes one of the most bizarre voice changes, 15 seconds in

Does anybody know how many concurrent streams it supports? Can more than one person watch at once on different locations?

The strategy for every team in the league who plays against us should just be to do what Southend did today, come out fast and close us down from the get go. Elementary, but it was massively effective today because we struggle to get the ball down, when we do the players panic and can’t string two passes together, so we have zero rhythm and constantly give the ball away, and we don’t adjust to that tactic until 3/4 of the game played. Easy stuff.
