That Lewis fella looks like he should be an extra on Rita, Sue and Bob too 😁

looks like a 70s footballer 

Started slow but what an opportunity this is. Need to get at them more. 

We need to be more aggressive and attacking minded now they're down to 10 men

Game probably made for Sheehan now they’re down to 10. Should have a lot of possession.

Just not moving the ball forward quick enough through the lines, our passing has been shit so far. Look great in our own half breaks down after the half way line so far

Simons giving the ball away a lot so far

Simons passing is poor 

Looks like our extra man is at the back so their press is less effective which will push them back. But they are quick on the break and Akins v Conway is a concern. Need to use the whole width now and work them harder. And our quality up front isn’t quite their yet so we need to pass it quicker.

Just riddled with loose passes

Flat as  a witches tit this performance

It's always hard against 10 who will put everyone behind the ball. Got to be slicker with the passing to cut through them

 

Not a fan of our width which is even more crucial now with them going down to 10, we need a moment of quality out wide.

At the moment we got Forss who's more of a striker/central player on one side and then Tutu on the other side who's more of a wing back.

Gale & ACD might prove to be vital.

Another bit of selective interpretation there.

No one knows whether a different person would have scored, or set up someone else.

Of course he has been our main man, but we can't rely on him entirely.

He's played a lot, we have many games to come in a short period, and we're trying something a touch different. 

Nothing wrong in that.

Unlike playing 3 fannies in midfield as pet Saturday!

 

I'll accept the selective interpretation bit!

But that could be said of any player in form.  None of us have a clue.  We've only won one away with regular starters Johnston, TSL, Burstow, Conway, Simons, ACD.  If we'd used 6 different players, surely we would have won more than 1?  Or maybe we wouldn't have won that one and maybe lost some of the 3 we drew?

I don't know.

Just my gut feeling that we are better with the ACD goal threat, but if we have better bring it on.

Crying out for Sheehan this 

We are shit

Simons has been bobbins

Terrible. All too slow and predictable. Not one player playing well.

Poor passes, too slow, bad touch, losing second balls …… surely it has to get better?

Which team is down to ten can't be Mansfield they seem to be all over the pitch 

Simons has shown glimpses of being a class above. However he seems to lack confidence and playing so deep bad passes can be costly errors. Our better players.need to step up, this is so scrappy.

We never play well against 10 men unless we have hierro running the show.

Except when we play Mansfield.

1-0 down last season and 2nd best.  Red card 2nd half, won 3-1, even Vic scored.

Painful to watch. Lots of sideways passing. Dempsey not involved, TuTu poor, no-one prepared to take a defender on. Like an afternoon practice session so far when we should be going for the jugular. Really missing some class from Sheehan and the two wingers 

GET THE FUCK IN
