I’m sure I saw a thread for the Boxing Day game already? Must be going mad.

Anyway, Evatt has confirmed that Tutte and Kioso are back, thank god. In my opinion we should be able to put out our current strongest 11.

I’d go with the usual back 3, Kioso back in at right wing back, move Jones back to the left, Tutte and Thomasson in centre mid and Sarcevic further forward behind Doyle and Delfounso.

Saying that, with how inconsistent we are we could play our best team and lose 4-0. If we can start quickly and get an early goal then a comfortable 2-0 win is my prediction - another kick start to the season!

Gutted we didn’t win that in the end. You’d have thought I’d lost the plot if I had said that at 3-0 down.

I think we were Thomasson hitting it with the outside of his boot away from winning it.

Incredible really.

Weird league btw

Yet all that goes wrong is his fault

Such massive bell-endery

He is the manager you fuckwit, and yes he is to blame.

Good to see us playing to the last minute again but we really need to be starting at the first minute.

Yep, I was thinking that.

Barrow winning at Vale.

Bradford winning at Tranmere.

Kioso anytime at 14/1

Lovely

All the sweeter as commentators were moaning he shouldn't have been on the pitch as the ref bottled it earlier when on a yellow (despite his yellow being a perfectly good tackle)

Got out of jail. But thank fuck. 

Id have been happier with 0 0

Thats how odd it was

However, we have come back from 3 down, so lets stop questioning their character

But as Jules said, he’s the manager win or lose but you want the players to get all the plaudits when they win and the manager to get the brickbats when they lose. 
 

 

I tell you what I don’t like sweeping statements, but I’ll make one today. All these posters being wannabee emotional football managers and finding time to type away slagging your team off, give it a rest during the game.

Yes there’s things wrong, we are still very much work in progress.

But a good point away against possibly the best team in this division. Great spirit to get those 2 goals at the end.

This.

Well take a point after that. Santos needs to learn how to defend and not give away stupid free kicks or more importantly not give the ref the opportunity to give them.

Pleased for Thomasson getting his goal and a good 20 mins from Isgrove. 

Delfonso needs to contribute in other areas of the pitch as his hold up play is  non existent at times

Unbelievable we are 5 points from play offs.

No I want Evatt to do his job and put a team out that knows what they are doing from minute one rather than having a “fuck me” moment after 60 mins or so. You dont concede 3 goals like the ones in the first half if you are a properly coached team.

Biggest frustration is that we waited 40 mins to get at em 2nd half 

Yep. Credit for the change in formation Isgrove coming on changed the focus of our attacks and give better balance I thought 

When we’re good we’re decent but when we’re bad my god we’re atrocious. No middle ground 

See Salford are on the move now with a new manager??

Lots santos can improve on

But that first wasnt a foul

We can't shout and curse like we can in the stands.

Just emotions running high and having to express them in a few words.

End of the day, I'm sure we all agree a 3-3 away at Carlisle isn't s bad result. A fine comeback too.

Tell you what, let’s not post shit for the first hour after a game either. Fuck the fact that this is a football forum. If your idea of multi-tasking amounts to just watching a game and breathing in an out but not to adding a third task of typing, that’s your issue, not that of those of us who like to discuss during games.

For every change that works, therell be more that fail

Been in the ground. Somehow managed to get tickets. Weather conditions atrocious. Weird to not hear our fans when we scored.

Agreed

Shit ref got out of jail but why do we concede so early in games still doesnt change the fact 3-5-2 doesnt suit this team but he will still carry on with it .
