Kiddi Match Thread

Quoted from Maringer

Keystone Kops defending for the first 20 minutes with individual errors costing us goals.

A good showing after that though Disley's enforced substitution meant our options for a change were very limited. Thanoj was dead on his feet for the last 20 minutes and I'm sure he'd have been replaced by another player had the opportunity been there.

A lively attacking performance for spells but I'm disappointed that we didn't test their very-shaky looking keeper anywhere near enough.

Not just the goalkeeper but both central defenders making alot of mistakes. On the one hand im actually pleased. I know the fa cup can bring big matches but we could still be playing someone like rochdale in the 3rd round, so really im happy to skip it this one season to just focus on the league, I hope we lose the first game of the fa trophy aswell, once again theres positives that can come from the cup but for me its all league this season.

The downside for me is that the backup players who were given chances today didn't look like they were taking advantage of that chance, which makes you start thinking that maybe the squad depth isn't what we thought it was. Maybe it was the tactics today but if we lose disley or niven and have to bring in thanoj or artus I can't see them slotting in and keeping the way we play going.

But we could've been playing Arsenal...There is prize money at each stage of the cup. It is a disaster that we won't see any of it!

You are right, but theres also the chance that we might now get an advantage if say teams like luton are through and then play cup games and have to play more games and get an injury or two. Theres a few positives and I think disasters a bit of a harsh word for missing out on what mightve been but probably wouldn't have been.

Maybe....personally I don't like the words fact and might in the same sentence.

Yeh that isn't right i've changed it to chance lol

The young lad Hatton had a stinker today, what worries me is that our strikers do not look capable of scoring. How Cook scored a hatful of goals last year I have no idea how

Plenty of balls played to him and a hatfull of crosses from either wing.

My dad is more mobile than Cook and Elding and he walks with a stick ..

I am praying for Hearns miracle recovery.

Got to say Nielson was different gravy today.

Watch out for Police with Tazers then  

Elding's inability to jump is dumbfounding, are his boots lead lined to stop him floating away or something.

Tried to sign Elding on football manager

His skill level was 0 on everything other than shouting at other players which he got 20 / 20

At least it's a start
