Down to 10 men as well, merry Xmas.....at least Caton is off, hope that is his last game in a Darlo shirt.TW has to recognise this surely to god.

Simply embarrassing.

Wright has put out this team, in this shape. We conceded three in 12 minutes on Wednesday, 2 in 20 today, 3 in pretty much every game since he took over.

Genuine question, is he good enough to turn this around?

Why did we not go for Chris hardy? Does anyone know?

Let’s be honest Wright wouldn’t have been in many fans top ten choices. I hope he can turn it round but the signs aren’t great at the moment. Never mind play offs, if you offered me a fourth bottom finish I’d snap your hand off!

Am having doubts now. Really wish it was different. I don't think there is a contingency plan for relegation either. DJ said as much.

Sadly, I have to agree. Anyone with an eye on the play offs must be absolutely deluded.

Listening to the commentary we have no shape whatsoever, that starting lineup was crazy, why Thommo at RB when we have Mares for gods sake, come on Tommy man just get a half decent back 4 and play everyone in their normal positions.Starting with 4 wide men is suicide. Wheatley should have started with Turnbull and Portas in midfield and 3 up front.Hardly rocket science is it.

I think Ron that he's still experimenting with his squad. By the time he settles on his preferred formation though we'll be doomed. I couldn't face the bloody Evo-Stik again.

I think it's fair to say Tommy Wright is out of his depth. He's brought nothing to the table since his arrival.

I think it was said that Marrs wants to leave - so thats probably why Thommo was at RB

So what? He's not left and we're still paying him. Get him in the team.

A back four of Marrs, Brown, Collins and Galbraith is 3/4 of the back four that finished in a play off spot last season and should be capable of more.

Team is totally bereft of confidence which is why we’re making so many silly mistakes. With the run of fixtures coming up it’s going to be very difficult to instill that confidence into them. We have to just hope we can nick something from one of the tough games and it gives us a bit of belief. I think TW knows how he wants to play but maybe doesn’t have the personnel to do so and is trying to find the right formula. Definitely need to go back to basics, the most worrying thing is that it sounds as though the players don’t know their roles

seems like we are playing better with 10 men, Wright will learn a lot about the team today

theoriginalfatcat · Post by **theoriginalfatcat** » Sat Dec 23, 2017 4:35 pm

Also seems like Gainsborough have clammed up - wasting time etc.

Since Wright and White took over, we've conceded 3 goals in 5 out of 6 games

The three teams beneath us have not got a point between them.

tdk1 · Post by **tdk1** » Sat Dec 23, 2017 4:49 pm

Who are those teams just now? Fcum apparently got back from 4-1 down to 4-all...

theoriginalfatcat · Post by **theoriginalfatcat** » Sat Dec 23, 2017 4:50 pm

Southport/Nuneaton/Ferriby.

For God's sake TW has only been in the job for a few weeks, he deserves our support not grumbles.

FT 1-3, bad day at the office.

al_quaker · Post by **al_quaker** » Sat Dec 23, 2017 4:56 pm

Can't wait to get smashed twice by Harrogate bloody Town, when we'll no doubt be cemented in the bottom three. Merry Christmas one and all

tdk1 · Post by **tdk1** » Sat Dec 23, 2017 4:57 pm

One draw from six games and regression in our defensive capabilities.

Players not understanding their roles is criminal in football for me. Fine, he's not been at it long but I'm not getting a sense of clarity of thought and direction at all.

I want him to do well, I really do, but he's not at the moment.

Couldn’t understand his appointment when it occurred and I think most of us felt the same.Talks the talk but certainly can’t walk the walk.Absolutely no doubt we are in a scrap to stay in this league and to be honest I don’t think we will.'
