Thanks Hants for the highlights.

I guess it sums it up that there were none after the sending off which is where the video ended.

Time to give Jack Sparkes a chance in a forward wide position either left or right.

Another poor performance, and 10th in the league with a couple of games in hand.
IF and a big IF, we can move back into the play offs - but the other teams have the points on the board we don't

Play offs or sack Taylor - Transition season?? He speaks the same s**t as Tis - 3 seasons no improvement, in fact could say going backwards.

Another two points last evening just frittered away. Add those and the two from the Bolton home match and we'd be "in clover". Grumpy ? YES !!!

The weather forecast was known before they left. Ajose and Fisher should have been on the bench. Seven subs named, use any 5. To have one forward in Seymour is quite ridiculous. Harrogate have a man sent off, golden opportunity to send on the cavalry and win the game. No highlights after the sending off speaks for itself.
I like Matt Taylor, but perhaps he should look in the mirror and think ‘ I need help here ‘ and act accordingly!

Here and there
The negativity of some is quite astounding.

For balance, here are a few positives......

We are FIVE points off 4th place with two games in hand.

We have the second highest positive goal difference (+14) in League 2

The squad had a 600 mile round trip for that game and played 94 minutes in atrocious conditions. We came away with a point.

Only Carlisle in the top 10 have played as few games as us. We are 6 points behind them.

There are only three other teams in League 2 that have played as few games as us.

We still have the highest 'goals for' total in League 2 (41).

We are eight points off the top team with THREE games in hand over them.

Stay positive! :)

This is an absurd overreaction. We are making good progress season by season, COVID has made a mess of both this season and last.

MT has made mistakes but what manager hasn't? We have progress on and off the pitch.

Last night was interesting as bar Cambridge winning (and being 3 games ahead) the rest basically stayed as it is, including a useful FGR loss.

How do you record improvement? We were in the autos fight after missing out on play off the year before with a largely new side. This year is nowhere near finished and win just one of games in hand and we're back in it, not forgetting we have two 6 pointers coming up

Atrocious conditions, I know it was raining but didn't Matt say that it was the best pitch they had played on in ages..? I really think that the pitch at SJP needs addressing or try to get someone in who can make the best of what we currently have (pitch wise)
