Who is our back up keeper or do we not have one?

I've not liked the FA Cup since Holdsworth so I don't give a fuck

[Youri McAnespie]

@jules_darby is right a pro 30 odd years old (Baptiste) and a reading and tracking that would see you dropped from a pub team.

Crellin has to be be replaced, confidence has gone, worrying thing is who’s there to replace him? Keeper situation a priority.

Quite a few positives in the performance, Fonz, the back 3, the 3 who came on looked promising. Might see more of Miller and Isgrove now they’re in contention. Can’t understand why Tutte isn’t starting. With Doyle to come back too, it just might be a shoot of positivity to cling onto.

This and this again. It's not the cup defeat that's the disappointment it's the manner of it.

Aye, even other clubs fans have started noticing now.

I've played in front of better keepers at Sunday League, I went in goal every other game during a vets season, 46 years old, 5ft 7" and I was still better than that usual twat Crellin. Never dropped a clanger, blamed it all on the centre backs 😅

In your heels?

Baptiste is one of the slowest players I have ever seen in my life.

Lazy? 😂 aye alreet

If you stopped doing the same thing as Baptiste (ball watching) and looked a little closer at them off the ball, you’d see the difference and how bad Baptiste was...chugging about, ignoring runners.

Santos was miles better 

I’m sticking with it, based on today’s performance Baptiste’s mistakes were no worse or damaging than other players around him. Because of the season he’s had he’s an easy target.

FWIW I think Santos and Delaney are better players and have performed much more consistently this season. I’m not saying Baptiste is the answer, just don’t think he needs berating today. We’ll have to agree to disagree.

If he’s quoting the fans as “having a bit of scrutiny and a bit of stick” with Baptiste. Wonder if he also sees the Crellin stuff.

[marple whites]

So first half we get battered, score a great goal and go in at half time level - would take that.

second half, start strong, but my god those 2 goals.

evatt - get crellin in the car and take him back to fleetwood now - he gives the defence no confidence and is costing us goals game after game and it can’t continue.

utter garbage

We’ve been so poor for such a long time, we were desperate to believe in IE. I still think it will come good - once the defence/keeper is sorted

And midfield surely?  I'm struggling to see which part of the team is functioning.  We dont look like scoring at home in league games, we havent got a clean sheet in us, despite having 2 good centre halves, and the midfield are poor at defending, creating and shooting.  And a manager that clearly has favourites.  I'm not saying he wont get some of it right eventually but right now its absolutely miles away.

[Good Knee]

I know I'm stating the obvious here,but here goes I've been watching football for over 50 years,I've little or no interest in tactics and I wouldn't know any of our current players if they were sat next to me now, but I know what I know and you build a successful team starting with number one ,the goalkeeper. Had we had a reasonably competent bottom division keeper around about 30 years old , minimum 6 foot tall well built we would probably have beaten a team from a division above us and be in the next round with a few more quid in the coffers.  It's not fucking rocket science. 

[gonzo]

Just seen our second goal, quite alarming how nobody seems arsed.

And the manger called them all out midweek apart from 3 of them for that then picks them all again on Saturday ? 

[Biggish Dave]

Reading between the lines, he knows Crellin has let us down a few times too often. Needs addressing and now

Jules Nailed it, Baptistes positioning & reading of the game is shocking & he hasnt got the pace to recover. It was alarming at times when they were getting to the byline on his side & he wasn't even visible on screen. 

[marple whites]

Quite restrained evatt, but reading between the lines he’s not happy.

 

but Baptiste ? Once a shite defender, always a shite defender

[CumbrianWhite]

Think Evatt will of learned his lesson about publicly hanging players out to dry. Hopefully we see his response with the team selection against Salford. 

[Biggish Dave]

I hope Th'East Midlands whites are home and drinking heavily

4 inch studs on a rock hard pitch Mr Grey?  You'd struggle to touch the bar in a game of 5-a-side pal!

If evatt had joined half way through and not signed these players I’d agree

but these are his players which he said would play open attacking entertaining football

I agree with that.  He signed the players, then implemented a system that they blatantly aren't suited to, it was obvious after half a game against FGR.  The full backs go from being 2 of the least important positions, arguably, to being absolutely pivotal to how the team plays, it doesn't take a genius to work out the plan falls down at that point with the players he's signed.

[lofthouse]

Why doesn’t the interviewer ask direct questions about Crellin and how bad he is?it seems like Evatt is holding  back on something, it’s obvious it needs to change ,but for some reason he won’t dwell much on talking about the goalie situation.  

[Biggish Dave]

Brandon Fleming not getting a sniff at Hull. Could be worth investigating a loan again in January

[Spider]

We’ll be down by January if this lump stays in goal

A loan won’t matter at that point

He needs dropping now
