Penalty to Kiddy, for felicitations sake.

I understand we want to focus on other things, but the financial rewards to us are too great to be sniffed at and we've decided to put a half arsed effort in. flipping wonderful.

THINK IM GOING TO COMMIT SUICIDE

Niven scores 1-3

YIPPEE 3-1

Hauling Southwell off after 20 minutes is a flipping atrocious decision

Niven, 4-3 We're gunna win 4-3 8)
UTMM

niven goal.  diz on for Southwell.  Shame.  Southwell and Scott arguing because Dayle tried to walk straight down the tunnel.

Southwell off for Disley - Ouch!

C,Mon Town only another 3 to score..  ;)

Who's off for a town win 4.3. :)

Yes i completely agree with putting Disley on. The midfield need him. Southwell needs a flipping slap, walking straight down the tunnel and mugging rob scott off, shocking behaviour in front of home fans.

Home fans arguing with scotty now.

To be fair to Scott and Hurst they had to change something!

How is it? We've been getting hammered in the middle of ther park.. Disley has been in fantastic form and we were 3-1 down and playing poor. Southwell isn't exactly a talisman and whatever the managers decision is for the benefit of the team. Completely imature shocking behaviour from Southwell and i imagine he's fluffed his chances of a start in the near future.

Should of brought gaydin off ffs the  bloke doesn't want to play for us and southwell does. shame.

What a truely shocking decision. Why 'rest' Disley in the first place, showing the fans you blatantly do not give two shits about winning or losing. We are in a poor financial position and going through to the next round is something you expect. Southwell is 18/19 years old for intercourse sake, if your going to give the guy a chance don't let him suffer for your own naivety 20 mins in.

Because it saddles him with the blame for Town's terrible start to this game when the responsibility lies with the defence and midfield. He's barely had a chance to touch the ball and has been substituted. The managers only have themselves to blame for this situation by picking a weakened team. They shouldn't have started Southwell if they don't have enough confidence in him.

Weakened team. Hannah couldn't play, everyone was clambering for Thanoj to start the rest were forced on us. Typical hysterical reaction - and it's all Scott's fault. Pathetic.

What? We've just shipped 3 goals in 15 minutes and the managers have likely just ruined a striker's confidence. Are we meant to pretend that everything is fine because we've been on a good run lately? A good cup run would make a massive difference to the club's finances, we shouldn't just accept this performance because we're doing ok in the league.

I completely see your point mate, he won't feel good at all. But for him to think he's getting the blame when he hasn't touched the ball would be silly. I do think Disley should of started in the first place, but the managers know the players better than us and we do appear to be playing better with Disley on. I was referring mainly to Southwells reaction, he's not Balotelli, surely you would just do as you were told and cheer the team on.

Oh yeah of course his reaction was unprofessional but I can't blame him for it really. I'd probably try and do the same if I was in his situation.

Exactly.

I understand that a lot of the choices were forced upon us. That is worrying that we're losing 3-1 the second we don't have our best side out. A big thing for me though is the fact that we had these forced changes, yet still shoot ourselves in the foot by dropping our captain who we then bring on after 20 mins and destroy a young lads confidence.

In the meantime we keep on the other option to take off in Elding, the same Elding who's not arsed about staying at the club. Southwell is clearly desperate to play and is clearly upset by the decision, that can only be damaging to him.

We shouldnt accept the performance no, but to do nothing about being 3 down is not on either, I think it's a sign that the managers aren't accepting the performance that they make a change at 30 mins.
I feel sorry for Southwell but I'm more bothered about sorting the performance than with someone's feelings.
No player is more important than the club.

Disley going off injured. What a disaster this half has been.

Hearn,
Thomas
Pearson
Disley

Now injured. Brilliant lol

And all other concerns aside...... how diabolical is Hatton?

Quoted from springstomind

Yes i completely agree with putting Disley on. The midfield need him. Southwell needs a flipping slap, walking straight down the tunnel and mugging rob scott off, shocking behaviour in front of home fans.

Fukin sort yeself out you mug. He's a young lad who's drunk, Toot or Ploot should have explained to him the reasons why they dragged him off. Slap anyone who isn't arsed about being subed after 20 mins.

Some people do baffle me.
Southwell needs to man up and take it on the chin instead of sulking and heres why..

Its a tactical change, we can all see that!
If it had being a straight swap for a striker then I can see why he'd be drunk off.

If he's not willing to take one for the team, no matter how old he is, he shouldn't be at the club.

Probably just reacting badly and will regret his actions later by trying to walk down the tunnel, I certainly hope so anyway.

3.2 YESSSSSSSSS

3-2  ;D

3-2  ;D

Hatton has been awful since he signed...he's not had much of a chance mind but I can't see what the duo have seen in him.

ok maybe disaster was a strong word

yes 8)
UTMM

WE ARE TOWN....  :)

2-3 Get in, come on Town this is for the taking UTM

Still disagree with making a change?

Quoted from Super Clive

Yeah I want to apologise for suggesting he was better than Wood at the start of the season!

flipping get in there town!!

Should make for an interesting 2nd half..

It's on!!

Who scored?

Quoted from Chrisblor

Yeah I want to apologise for suggesting he was better than Wood at the start of the season!

hahaha very honest mate, don't worry about it, i recall telling my mate Grimsby have signed some alleged hitman called Hearn who can;t hit a barn door........ i was proved wrong about 5 games later lol .. he was like a box of pringles ever since he scored one.

I've learnt to try be positive about players i've not see too much, but Sam Hatton really is excrement.

Half time - 3.2 to kiddy..

Neilson is claiming it, very scrappy but a goals a goal.

Neilson got Town's second.

With Disley injured, will Soares be recalled now?

Possible but would it not give Thanoj his chance to step in!  8)
UTMM

good god hatton

Every time i hear Thanoj i hear it followed by good pass, good ball, does well to retain possession. Good lad

Sounds a good start by Town, We sound on top, lets hope we can get another goal in the next 10 to 15 minutes.

Come on Town, keep plugging away and give the ball to Neilson to run at the defenders.

UTM

Neilson sounds absolutely amazing today!

Less than 2,000 town fans,!!!!!

Why have half the STH decided not to attend ?

Do they not realise that when the players come out onto the pitch,

They might assume , not many interested in this game, so that puts negative thoughts in their minds,

Hence, that could be the reason we were 3-0 down after 17 mins,

Well they are fighting back now , so come on town !!!!

I didn't go today, the league a far to important for me so I've saved my cash for next week.

lmao is Hatton even a proffessional footballer? England C?? how?

Quoted from springstomind

lmao is Hatton even a proffessional footballer? England C?? how?

I have not seen him play this season, Is he that bad ?

Cook sounds like he's done well since coming on

Only seen him once or twice. Yer he looks absolutely terrible unfortunately. Lacks ant fitness, quality, every now and then he put a half decent cross in, but no conviction in defense. He has a mean set piece, but does not deserve his place to take them.  Not a touch on wood

Quoted from we will return

Cook sounds like he's done well since coming on

Yes sounds good mate.

Quoted from cmackenzie4

I have not seen him play this season, Is he that bad ?

He's not playing well but I think he is suffering from a bit of Soaresitis and also the comparison to Wood who seems to have hit his best form to date.

Cmon 3 minutes added time

Quoted from cmackenzie4

I have not seen him play this season, Is he that bad ?

Nah Chris he's not that bad to be fair. Wood is better at the mo. Hatton just needs a long run in the team.

Ouch x 4. worth the risk. 8)

Ha we'll played ska face

2-4 but in fairness we had to go for it and almost made it 3-3!  Poor start and some blame must go on management regarding team selection, but, they saw the mistake they had made and changed it!

Move on, its the cup and as much as I'm disappointed ....... its just the cup!

The Football league is where we want to be so now lets be totally focussed and take the positives out of the game in that we battled and showed that we can keep the ball and hurt teams.

Onwards and upwards UTM

fair play for going for it at the end, forget it, move on, focus on the league, it would of been good for a cup run, but hey ho

One good thing anyway,

We can concentrate on the league now.   8)

Quoted from springstomind

lol macca nearly scored ... well 4-2.. its a blessing in disguise i reckon. We weren't exactly going to go on a steaming run. We ot enough money for bennett, connel, increasing gate receipts (for confrence) etc so i'm noty bothered .. if that was a league game i'd be fuming.

We've got enough money??? Bloody hell, I wanna live in your world because here, on planet earth, we are skint....  ??)

Management to blame for team selection? How?

Pretty much 1st team apart from Thanoj for Disley, who people have being crying out to get on the pitch.

Let's hope that's got the unlucky stuff out of the way, only Town could push their keeper up in added time, have it cleared agonisingly off the line and concede from it. As long as we bounce back on the League and beat finally feckin' Kiddy in the next league meeting I'll be happy.

I wanted a cup run but it wasn't to be, look at Lincoln, a tricky replay at Halifax which they'll probably lose and a red card and 3 match ban for one a Lincoln player.

We are skint but johns still wasting 0000's on the pipe dream that is the new stadium. That is never going to get built especially with the new set back. Hasn't he learned from great coats ?


Good on him though for keep plucking away but let's be honest who seriously believes we'll get one within ten years?

Quoted from voice of reason

Not as skint at you're making out, every highly saught after in form player last season who had great seasons "Cook and Thomas, Miller and Soares, Hearn etc..... we paid for, not to mention we've always got funds to bring in the likes of Hannah, Neilson, Pond, Townsend etc. Yes in "your world" we're skint.... but when in rome mate... we clearly have better funds than 90% in this league. All i was saying is that you're looking at round 23 or 4 to start getting decent funds which could make a difference .. and as we saw a Salisbury last season, it;s unlikely to happen for us in the FA cup... so let's concentrate on the league.

Anyway maybe you have inside account figures .. but le';s concentrate on the football, i reckon this is a blessing to be fair, we've been great in the league recently and maybe Hatton can use the future FA cup breaks to go for a run lol

Having read some of the posters on here earlier they would have had Scotty tar and feathered yet our once acclaimed Mr. Messiah on the radio applauded the managers for making a tactical change that almost paid off. We made a real fist of it in the second half but it wasn't to be after a terrible start.

We must stop this hysterical reaction to when we lose or play badly. It was the same against Dartford and yet we went and won two tough away games. It is there have to be a sacrificial lamb for every bad day at the office.

that was very poor imo, BUT at least we can now focus on the league but worrying about some of our back up players who looked quite poor

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.

Quoted from Hagrid

;D ;D ;D ;D I agree with you I also think S&H got thier selection right they went for the best that they had for the game.
One is allowed to be worried a bit about certain players when the 3 lone ranger go back think S&H will have to bring in new players for next season.
Myself I enjoyed the game at least they showed fighting spirit with out 3 top players anyway we can now get back to concentrating on the league anybody got any  prices for the bookie on towns chances.utmm.

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.

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.

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.

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

Couldn't get to the game yesterday but after reading some of the comments whilst the game was coming on, I have one thing to say...
