Wrexham spent £12.5m on their midfield alone by the way, not including the extortionate amount they'll be paying Windass.

It's just absolutely not relevant how they're performing in cups or otherwise.

And Wrexham is not relevant in this, I was talking about Thomason.

You started it you dick.

No I didn't? Someone said we missed him, I disagreed and you started talking about how the team he plays for now are still in the cup like that's got anything to do with the price of fish.

And chucking about insults for what? Pathetic.

First half was a discrace, better second half but they sat back and as soon as they turned it on a bit looked threatening, our defence is woeful. Missed chances again but still not good enough. 

We over complicate everything and have no spine, the lack of passion is alarming and very similar to evatts reign.

My toes are still fucking freezing 

How did the players and fans react at the end? I imagine there were a few boos?

So you want the club to fold because we've not played very well for a few weeks? Jesus wept.

Yes because I clearly said that in the post.  

I don't want Schumacher to go. I want him to realise this is a shambles & fckg sort it out.

If he can't do that then, yes, I will want him to go.

However, he's now put himself in a position where should be perform at our recent level next week, against Wigan, at Wigan then he'll be in one Hell of a pickle.

Oh, so you've got someone lined up to buy the club off Football Ventures?

You sure??

We could score goals in those days, well at home anyway. Just couldn't keep em out.

We didn’t win in London for 5 years in the 80s.. played in a ramshackle Burnden Park and were bankrupt and playing in front of 5k crowds.

Nice one. I hope they've got deep pockets, because FV have pumped a shit load in, and they'll want it back.

We were second best? If there had been anything else we’d have been third best.

Boos at final whistle and some when players and manager came over but not everyone.

They have pumped money in but unfortunately there’s nothing to show for it from a playing staff point of view.

In terms of investment, unless you can tell me where FV have spent money and recouped the outlay with a positive income that out weighs what they have spent, I’m struggling to agree with your opinion 

Very disappointing result and performance. Simply not good enough all over the pitch.

The keeper made one really good save but should've done better for two of the goals. Defence was weak and Johnston had a very poor game. Midfield struggled to do much. A few wild shots from Gale was about it. Up front a good goal from Dalby from an excellent cross and Burstow really has to bury the one on one. 

No idea why the goal from the corner was disallowed. Very poor refereeing.

We have to improve and quickly otherwise we'll be mid table in a few weeks.

He's gone to a much better and highly funded squad, I can't believe we're trying to point score over a lad scoring in a shootout.

He was crap, we got a good feeling, move on.

All about opinions of course, why we're on here, but he wasn't crap. He's doing well a level up, no surprise in my eyes. A solid, reliable young pro whose attitude, leadership and energy we are well short of.

Why does it matter? You've got someone coming in who's going to pay them off and take us to the next level, haven't you?

One way back, was their first goal off side ?

Aye. We were gash in the 89s

Come on Cheese - we all need your usual happy clappy twaddle to give us a heartwarming lift after yet another shit show performance, but you’re busy having petty arguments. 
 

Take a break from it and tell us we’re still in the playoffs and we’re going to win the league.

Indeed. He’s left us behind and gone onto a higher level while we’re still stagnating in this shite league.
 

If we had 11 with his attitude we’d piss the league.

Today was pathetic, but we ARE still in the playoffs. 🤷‍♂️

To add to that…

It was unlikely we were going to go up via the top 2 before today, it was pretty much already at the point of play offs or nothing. Tonight that is still the case

I think if I change my expectation to play offs rather than autos then I might be slightly less pissed off with the useless bunch of twats.

It matters because you said it did.  You said they want all the money back that they have invested. If they were good owners they wouldn’t have spent £600k on Victor who has never done it anywhere else before Burton and turned down £1m as widely reported for only to let him go on a free in terms on fee that was paid. 

They spent £1.2m on a player for a manager that was let go a week later. That isn’t a decision of a board that knows what it is doing.

If you don’t agree we aren’t doing as well as expected then that’s the problem. We have spent millions in the last 2 years but we have ended up with the likes of McAtee, Randall, N’lundulu but because FV have put the money in to sign them then FV must have made the right decision. 

You can argue and single out all you like but we all want us to do well. If we were doing well, we wouldn’t be having this conversation.
