Dug deep for that one, could only really see Altrincham getting a winner after their equaliser, Rodney had a couple of decent chances before that when you wondered if we'd let the chance slip, that first half was excellent and as their commentary team mentioned "Altrincham will be happy being only one goal down", there's certainly a very good side within this group of players and if we can go on a run there's not many teams I'd fear in the play offs "IF" we turn up. |

Heard rumours about his passing last night but didn't want to believe it, absolutely terrible news for everyone, a lovely family man and an even better human being, rest in peace Joe a life taken far far too soon. |

It's probably because he doesnt quite fit in with the "style" of football from another one of Peps disciples currently in charge, hes a proper centre half thats weirdly decent at err.... defending |

It's only a "good save" if the player gives the keeper an opportunity to save it, decent strikers just take the chance with the keeper nowhere near |

Not sure how many lame performances, a distinct lack of bite and shite results its takes for some folk to realise the handbrakes firmly applied as we coast around the division gifting teams some of their easiest points of the season. |

On first viewing i thought the keeper could have done more for both goals, let's not even talk about the overplaying for their first goal, its got beyond boring |

Hes known we've needed a decent keeper, a permanent one ideally, we've clearly needed a strong mobile striker who can hold the ball up too for God knows how long but persistently signs lots of the same type of player, its not rocket science.
He's also set them up to play a certain way too many times regardless of personnel, not sure where the "sympathy" part comes into play though |

This current crop of players have got to this position in the league despite of Jim not as a result of his wonderful ideas, let's make something pretty clear this league is absolutely terrible with the exception of a couple of sides, look how crap Oldham are too and how high up in the league they are. |

I think the part that hurts the most is after all the shite and worry for everyone connected to the club for years this was as big a chance as we will EVER get to reach a final and play at Wembley, something that might not happen again for years and years and we've passed it up without even a whimper, this loss is FAR far bigger than that to FC United or even any other game i can remember in decades. |

You're failing to acknowledge we've had around 94 minutes prior to their equaliser to gain sufficient control of a game whilst playing against a part time lower league team at home it should very much be a given, which inturn eradicates any need for just "two more minutes". Its pretty much not to worry we went in 0.0 so half the match doesnt even matter, |

I'd probably read the room 442, you can dissect my post and the wording used all you like, or anyone elses, the end result of todays efforts are an absolute shambles and its the culmination of one man's work, Jim did well to steady the ship in very choppy waters and he's clearly a decent fella to that theres no debating at all, but the facts are it's simply not good enough, he's simply not good enough.

Maybe if we'd have "set the tempo" first half we'd be out of sight by half time, we won't know because we're still trying to find reason why we think we can just turn up for the last 45 dissecting that and the first half makes zero difference to the outcome of a whole game. |

It could have been very much won though had we started at the right tempo and scored a couple of goals playing on the front foot before half time. |

Yep, the whole of the first half, its not a rarity its become far too common, not sure how many more times you want me to say it though, decent sides set up correctly and set the tempo for the match, dominate straight from the kick off, we're nowhere near good enough to just turn up for 45 minutes and expect trips to Wembley, todays game was an absolutely massive opportunity for a trip to Wembley the equivalent to a tap in to an open net, we've spectacularly somehow managed to blaze it over the bar, I'll let everyone else decide who's to blame for that |

Whilst moaning about opposition teams "budgets" when we invariably lose to them, let's see if Jim mentions the difference in budgets post match today |

"Once again", means its happened before, and again, again and.....repeat until very bored, not just today's game
You asked how was the description based on today's game, the whole first half would slot firmly into that, no need to apologise either. |

You're absolutely spot on, its boringly predictable while pur embarrassments reach new depths, its weird how some folk accept such things even more so still try to justify it. |

You didn't specify your comment was purely about today, hence my response, I do read all your posts I'd dont need a request to do so, similarly I read many of the other posters too, yet your loyalty to defend him or find some reasoning is getting pretty bizarre.
Reality is we all know the game was never "as good as won" while we've got him in charge and only a 1 goal cushion, we've got a soft underbelly have done for what feels like forever, and dont bully games nowhere near enough, its nothing new its never been addressed, while we fanny about signing lots of similar players the squad doesnt even need. |
