Baseball caps. Blew a few rows behind but they got them back!

A white carrier bag tried to take out Burge as well. The utter scoundrel.
My cap blew off in the second half and went back about 4 rows!

I had nothing to do with the carrier bag though
 

theres a difference between supporting / backing the team, and posting stuff almost as fact that wasn’t happening. We were never winning comfortably 4-0, not if you’ve been watching us recently

Well when you look at how we've dispatched of teams like Cheltenham and Crewe, I'd have thought we'd have had a lot more about ourselves today given the opposition and the form they are in. Very disappointing and entirely unforeseeable.
 
It's to the tune of 'Guantanamera' matey, a popular Cuban folk song. HTH :)
A knaa. But not everybody on here would knaa that, like 😉
Its bad this man. Its people like you who have this great club stagnating.

Step up and call this shit out.....change your attitude, and there's no gloating to be found in the true fans.
I once tried to call a shit out but my bowels didn't respond to my voice.

It's the old cliché that the players aren't playing for the manager. It's said everytime any club goes on a bad run. Yet, I don't think they are playing for him. Hopefully, I'm wrong and we go up at a canter. But, something feels wrong.

The only thing "cantering" are the players going through the motions on the pitch, pretending to close down / pressure the opposition.
 
Just the match we needed after recent performance. I think everyone will be feeling a lot happier and a lot more positive in a few hours.

A comfortable win, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of Broadhead too. 4-0.
Ah well....you were nearly right. That was the most shapeless, clueless performance in living memory. What was the plan second half? It seemed like we went 442 with no width and expected the FB's, who were isolated, to act as wingers. We also continued to knock it long to 2 midgets. Does anyone have any idea on what Johnson's plan was - it was quite clear that the players didn't. We are in a mess and it looks very much like our head coach does not have a clue what to do. For the record I'm not calling for his head but equally don't think he's particularly good at his job. I said when he was appointed I didn't understand it because he'd achieved so little in his career - now we know why, because he's not that good at his job.
