Have said before that I’m not a massive fan of Glads in that he gives the ball away too many times but I genuinely think his leadership qualities are missing in the team right now.
These need a rocket up them and I think Glads does a reasonable job of geeing them up on the pitch to support the manager.
I don’t take anything back about what I said re the players needing to take personal responsibility and start to man up, but they definitely are missing a leader and a general on the park as well i think.
We have the look of a southern softie outfit. Hit the nail on the head. Once again out muscled all over the park. How many times have we seen that this season. Not much in the quality of the teams, but they are so much stronger than us.
On a Different Note another great result for Harrogate today. 6 weeks ago they were 500/1 with the Bookies to get Promoted. Tonight they are 33/1 to Get Promoted. We need one of their runs quickly.
We had 70% possession, Morecambe had two shots on target and scored two goals. Only thing Corey saved was removing the smoke bomb. Weak at the back and weak in attack. Frustrating!
Watched the highlights there of the Stockport v Harrogate game for example.
Harrogate similar ish club to ourselves and we’ve matched their position in the table for a while now although we’ve been above them most of the time.
That’s where the similarity ends.
Harrogate defending like their lives depended on it to achieve the draw as opposed to us with our stand back and let ourselves be bullied in to submission style that we do seem to employ game after bloody game.
Time for me to bow out for the evening and thank goodness I didn’t get the chance to go and see this shit show in person today.
lets no dress this up we were awful today in all departments. I cannot be bothered to say any more as the players couldn't be bothered to try any harder.
Just watched the Highlights again. What was our Number '3' doing for their 2nd goal. It was entirely his fault. His initial positioning was at fault when the long ball came down the Morecambe Right, then his Defence & Tackling was Pub League Standard, my mother could have dribbled past him. He has to go and get replaced by the New Guy, whether its Scott's drinking Buddy or Not! Get Rid of Conroy Scott!
What is it with the stewards and flares (thrown by Morecambe fan this time). Why can't they deal with them? Correy had to do their job for them.
Not that it changes the point you are making but it looked to me like the smoke bomb was chucked in over the top of the north stand from outside the ground. And frustrating as it may be, I’m sure I’ve seen somewhere that the stewards aren’t supposed to touch them while they are billowing smoke. Presumably Corey shouldn’t have either but fair enough if we needed to get on with the game. One day the pillocks who chuck these things might realise that they aren’t helping anyone.

I actually agree with this. That goal was a shocker and he was lucky the goal he gave away in the first half by ducking out of the header instead of clearing it was given as an offside or offence of some sort. We were struggling to see anything wrong with the goal.

Conroy was also at fault for the 1st goal - very bad positioning - wrong side of goalscorer. So actually he was at fault for all 3 goals today. 3 of Many Many this season. NEW GUY MUST START NEXT MATCH! Scott needs to find a new drinking buddy and get tough!
I hate to say this but i think our season ended today. Probably finish bottom half but have enough points on the board already to not worry about relegation. Thats it just more of today and the occasional win here and there. The owners clearly arent chucking any more money our way for players to seriously strengthen the squad. What next? They said they would step down but who is gonna take over?
