Spider is the forum funny man. He will be talking about others, no one knows who. But he carries on. 

Bad result need to get back to basics not conceding bad goals if we can average 2 points per games in the games left we will we be up!

no. 

to a point yes.

Is the ref the reason the players bottled it in a derby game again?

Can’t win

I get pelters for being a happy clapper

When I get stuck into them for being shit, I get the same.

It’s almost like we have some of most schizophrenic fans in the UK

I can't quite believe what we've gone and done today.

Sadly that’s the truth. Ref was awful, penalty debatable, but they weren’t the main reason we lost

Ok. 

Ref massively influenced the game . But we were poor

Spot on. Frustrating but sadly expected once friday beers wore off.

My observations. 
 

Constant tinkering where allowed makes no sense.

We had chances. Not on IE. Felt we looked dangerous going forward and CMG looks a real addition up top.

Sheehan is class but was Blackpools best player in first half. Everything he touched led to a satsuma attack. Should of been whipped at half time.

Ref was poor but I’m trying to steer away from blaming officials. Certainly wasn’t why we lost.

What was said at HT never needs repeating. We looked useless that first 15.

Santos red should be overturned. He wins the ball and importantly he doesn’t see Joseph before he slides.

We have to start turning up for the big games. Pizza cup aside which felt like a day off we constantly fail.

 

 

There can’t be any question that the ref affected the game today and I’m sure also the mindset of the players, boosting Blackpools whilst demoralising ours. To continue to constantly see one sided decisions as we did today would have been soul destroying and must have affected the players mentality and concentration. I’d write this one off really but it still needs Evatt to look at the defensive side of things because it’s not just today that we’ve been found wanting.

Did they bottle it, or were Blackpool just better on the day?

I know we're all very frustrated, but we missed a load of chances in the first half; had they been taken, it puts a different complexion on things. 

Second half, mistakes at the back again, and a harsh sending off.

Clearly there are questions to be answered, and we've not been fluid recently, but all isn't lost.

My own view is that there are too many changes, and I also think that at times a shift in set up to counter an opponent is worthwhile exploring- it worked at Northampton- but that is for Evatt and the staff to look at.

I'm not sure I'm blaming the players too much today, but those that were there will have seen if they were putting a shift in. Beer goggles notwithstanding. 

Tempted to park any comment on today, wait till after Tuesday and view both games together. We could shake ourselves down and show we can really win these types of game, or get duffed again and show they are still our Achilles heel.

 

 

I get the feeling we could do with a fresh approach

A change of formation or something, width high up the pitch

It feels a bit stale

Fuck me, we have some seriously sore-losers in our fan base. Wonder if Derby fans are saying they need to change their entire philosophy because they lost an away game?

🤦‍♂️

I'll get pelters for this, but we're just flat track bullies

The numbers back it up

Not from me mate, I think you may have a point. 

Hope Tuesday doesn't prove you right.

Is it not just a red card in its own right?

He's got both feet off the floor and goes right through the back of him

 

 

Not sure how Evatt can say twice that that isn't a penalty. Might be one of the most nailed on penalties you'll ever see.

And I wouldn't be surprised if the red doesn't get overturned, even though I think it shouldn't have been one.

Yes they will cheese. We are not special

Madness.

Soft goals we conceded, referee aside we shouldn’t be conceding like we did. 

carved apart too often down our right. 

they broke about three times from our corners and we got caught. 

didn’t think we were too bad 1st half and honestly thought we’d turn it around second half. 
 

on to Wigan.
