Anything involving the Fat Greek is presumably XXXL, though maybe the odd salad dressing.

A point every £8.5m, one way of looking at it.

My mate just left to head back to Telford, nights like these test your resolve. The 6th sees scores more leave.
-
My blades mate there text me and said he couldn’t remember us getting tonked like this; says he hopes they never go up again if the owner hasn’t got ambition to shop at more than Poundland. So far out their depth.

Suggests given tiger ages and inexperience, they are being coached well too 🐑

Good point. Was thinking about this myself, but more along the lines, if we play a 3, with Adams sitting in and extra bite to stop teams running through us, could we play Bird and maybe Sibley in front for more creativity. Know Sibley gets his knockers but I genuinely felt taking him off yesterday, made it more comfortable for them. My issue with the 3 is not so much it doesn’t work defensively, it’s more the capabilities of our wing backs going forward. Which I think is why you would suggest 4-3-3? So I’m trying to think what allows them to be more effective, ball players with attacking instincts in the middle?

Whenever I hear Malcolm Christie, even if after the game, in terms of punditry his analysis seems good, you’re given a feel he knows what he’s talking about but he’s far more upbeat. Steele may have been a good goalkeeping coach, knows his onions but boy us he dull on the radio this season; he’s full on grumpy old man.

I’m totally with you on this, there is seldom anyone strolls the league, the opportunity to go up is clearly there though, as the league looks weaker this season and we’re definitely one of the stronger teams, that why we’re 2nd! Just think there was a fair bit of frustration yesterday, Barnsley barely troubled us, we wasn’t outplayed, yet we gave away a lot of possession. Midfield was particularly guilty and final balls were quite disappointing into or around their box. We just didn’t create much did we? Still think we’re going up myself, but losing Collins was a blow. Let’s see how we can gel with Gayle and hopefully Waghorn will be back to play a part too. We can all worry about Warne’s style, what we lack when we’re up, we just need to get behind them for now, it’s still ours for the taking; others are equally slipping up.

😂no he was a few rows behind me but getting plenty of selfies

He didn’t look too bad in the stands today. Think if we’d have won he’d have started the bounce. Good to see him, Vickers and Jake Rooney in the away end supporting the lads.

Really agree with this bit. Thought we never put many decent balls in and Wilson was particularly frustrating, as the number times he was in promising positions to cross and either held on too long, overhit or that moment which he did all the hard work but needed to cross sooner. He was a bit guilty of flattering to deceive a fair bit, though I cut him some slack for keeping going to get in those positions; the end product, like the fane was just frustrating.

Just got back and don’t understand the real negativity. We were ok, they scored a worldie, it wasn’t a bad performance for me, just lacked killer instinct when we got in front. Stuttering start 2nd half and bizarrely got better towards end without creating clear cut chances. Seen a lot worse performances at Barnsley away. Still all to play for.
-
Luck ran out. To be fair, purely on BBC stats it looks very one sided towards Bolton and somewhat likely they would score.
-
Just looked at the first half stats. Aside from the score line, the only other one Cambridge are on top, is fouls committed. Looks like they’re kicking lumps out of them!

Wish one of these days a club would take him on. Rather suspect though, in a lot of cases there’s no smoke without fire and clubs probably don’t want the scrutiny either. Really dislike the bloke, because essentially he’s become an expert in others woes, never mind football finance.
