Macca was mom because the rest were so poor.

Macca was mom because the rest were so poor.

He’s not league standard, may as well gone for an opposition player. We genuinely laughed when they announced that.

Playing with macca is like playing with 10 men as it is.

[bellwhiff]

Any comments from the manager yet ?

[WVStag]

Not one Mansfield player played well today and Coughlan tactically got it wrong.

When down to 10 men, generally always become more organised and resolute because they have to be. In these times, you have to have the ability to break teams down with some creativity and we did not have it. Bringing Bishop off and switching to a narrow CF trio was an error. Instead, we played with an asymmetrical 433 with only one 'wide' player, CJ, who was poor today. Widening the pitch is critical (and obvious) to opening up space between the opposition. We didn't do that.

Coughlan claimed he 'couldn't have done anymore' and I do not agree at all. He got the shape wrong, as well as the personnel in my view. Khan should've been introduced when we needed more creativity and the reshuffle of shape was ineffectual.

Both manager and players let us down today.

Just listened to the post match interview and he look well p off and sounds like the players that don’t wanna work will be gone shortly

As did the scoreboard!

GC will be getting rid of most of this lot on June 1st.

He could let some of them go now. We would be no worse off.

But we had our most creative player according to many on here still on the pitch, Mellis?
He went missing again as at Shrewsbury against 10 men, woeful!!

Mellis is our most creative player and yes he was poor today. He is not Kevin De Bruyne.

And if he doesn’t it’s his job that will be on the line , fans will only put up with the flannel he comes out with for so long before they start doubting him .

[Amberheart]

Mass clearout long overdue

Some of these overpaid jokers have failed for 3 consecutive seasons

They are simply not good enough

Totally agree

[Spiritater]

Bishop and MacDonald have been painful to watch.

The whole lot of them were

[oldweststander]

Mellis has not got the legs or the ability everyone thinks he has.

Can't remember him making a telling forward pass today.

Not even Kevin de Gerbil!

[Spiritater]

Why do we keep blaming successive Managers? Some/most/all of these Players have been stealing a wage for the best part of a year.

I've said this for a while .
CG said in his post match, these players have cost managers there jobs and he doesn't want to be next.
He's a massive job on.

I said when folk were slating JD it's not all his fault.

[Spiritater]

Absolutely dreadful.

Honeymoon period over.

Not convinced things have improved since JD.

Well it's the exact same players so not much will change.

Yes, but some on here were squealing 'it's not the players, IT'S THE MANAGER' when JD had the reins

As did the scoreboard!

Would love it to light up with EDDERS on it with a fire work display around it going off at the same time

If Carlsberg did score boards

Drifting, more like sinking.

[yellowstagsfan]

Think Holloway got it spot on after the red card. Immediate substitution sacrificing a forward player for a defender. We never really troubled them after that

[MTFCMusings]

Well, I haven’t seen anyone mention that we’re in a relegation battle as of yet. The meltdown hasn’t been quite as bad I expected.

[arsene wengers coat]

We're not out of the woods though are we?

We probably need 20 more points this season to stay up.

Show me where they're coming from.

Whether you actually meant it or not we’re quite clearly not going to go down.

It was always both, but (whereas I can’t prove they wouldn’t have) we’d have never came from 2 down against port vale to draw or from 2-1 down against Cambridge to win when they went down to 10 after the epic clusterraspberry at Shrewsbury under JD
