Sloshed Joe Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Could’ve move Sutton to CB, Shelton to RB and kept attacking players on to try and get back into this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGahey brought on cos we’re getting absolutely pasted at the back. Could easily be 5-0 Shelton should have been taken off for HM. We were already playing with 10 men before Hogan's sending off. 9 if you include Sutton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't talk wet. Stupid question 7 minutes ago, L1onheartNew said: Serious question here. Why on earth is Shelton playing? And why hasn't he been taken off? Nobody can answer that. I'd have hooked him for McGahey and gone 441 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Branston Pickle Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Only possible upside is that it shows Mellon and Brabin how much work and recruitment is still needed (if they didn't already know) Almost like they've gone in expecting to turn them over 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Blue Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Every outfield player is playing terrible , why just single out Shelton? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 I'm embarrassed for this bunch of frauds tonight, from 1 to 99 a bunch of shithouses, Hogan is a fucking pub player and I'd of subbed Shelton and Lundstrum after 10 minutes, meanwhile Mellon is stood there doing absolutely fuck all. Probably Murray's fault. Should be 5 down and we've not even tested their keeper. Fuck off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShireBlue Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Some are having a nightmare out there (and some far worse performances than Shelton’s) and we should be 4 down. Wouldn't mind seeing the sending off again. The Fylde player definitely had Hogan’s arm locked-up by the end of the move. Regardless, fuck me, we are so shit in possession. Appalling.

disjointed Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Don't get the hatred for Shelton, there are worse players than him tonight, and to top it off the sprinkler at half time has just pissed us through even at the back of the stand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you could take every player off , where do you start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So because he has played bad in the past you you take him off now when there are players far worse tonight. I agree he is playing bad but my point was stop singling him out when it is ALL of the players tonight, some even worse than him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlossopLatic Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 (edited) I'm sure we all knew deep down that a performance like this was round the corner with this group of players. We couldn't expect Mellon to come in and wave a magic wand but he's got a hell of a half time team talk to do. That said promotion winning sides suffer games like this all the time and find a way to get something out of the game. So this is now about a test of character as much as anythingelse.
