    Hes someone with a strong character I do see that but he's a centre back and we keep sending him out to play RB or centre mid that's issue I have.

    Agreed. I just wonder if having that character on the pitch is what he is preferring over a round peg in a round hole that he can’t rely on as much. 
     

    Man marking Conn-Clarke today?

    TNT commentary and punditry team utterly disgusted in the Fondop sending off and appeal refusal. 

    Like they said, you can forgive the original decision but you can’t forgive not overturning it on appeal. What rule has Fondop broken?! Or law. Before someone picks me up on using the wrong word!

    I'm somewhat bemused why Mcgahey keeps avoiding being dropped we keep sending him out there, out of position.

    Could be that he feels he can rely on McGahey to not shit the bed under pressure. To be fair he doesn’t look like someone who’s panicking on the ball, he’s just limited as a footballer.

    "Play well because it's on the tele and other teams' scouts might be watching"?

     

    It's done, over this season.  If they don't fuck it up for good today, they'll do it on Saturday or the week after..

     

    Sorry!

    Feel the exact same Joe. 
     

    They might scrape a win today, but they’ll only throw in a stinker in the next game. 
     

    Season over. 😩

    Nah F that. It’s the latics way to start believing again the closer you get to kick off. Let those hopes get up!…

    Can we improve on Chesterfield's long stay down here, possibly but only if they level things up and have more than 1 team automatically promoted.

    Was looking at Cook’s record at Chesterfield as it gets referenced how far behind them we are. 
     

    He got the job in Feb 22 with the team doing really well and only getting rid of the previous manager due to off the field stuff. By the looks of it he got 20 points from 19 games and they clung on to 7th, ending with 3 wins from the last 12 games. Season 2 they were doing really well then had a big blip of 3 points from 9 games mid season. Ended strongly though and finished 3rd. Then this season they’ve walked the league. 

  6. It’s staggering that red isn’t overturned. The slowmo shows he’s first to the ball by some distance, left foot takes the ball away, right foot stays on the ground. The fylde player swings for the ball, misses, kicks Fondop’s left leg while falling over his right. Not late, not dangerous, not high, not even a foul. All there to see on film. What an absolute joke. No point in even having appeals.

    Think Unsworth and now Mellon have built up the idea that BP is some seething cauldron of hate, fans foaming at the mouth ready to turn on the players at any moment and that's why they can't perform.

     

    It is complete nonsense.

    I think the fear of making a mistake is a thing, but that fear doesn’t come from the possibility of the crowd groaning. It’s bigger than that. 
     

    Put it this way, a player could have a great game for Brentford against Man United. But put them in the other team and the expectation that comes from playing for a club like that could mean they don’t perform as well. 
     

    And I shall now resign from this board for comparing us to Man United.
