I don’t think he is a WUM. Just one them naturally miserable negative people. All the other things in his life will be the same.

Redalert NEVER celebrates a Morecambe win. And there are Lancaster City fans who take less delight in our defeats. I'll take two points per game for the rest of the season thank you very much!

Not good to watch that 2nd half, and could drone on about where things went wrong, but that is footy.....6-1 and 7-2 spring to mind. Still confident that we will get back on track Tue. COYS.

6th in the league still dizzying heights for us! Second half they got a goal then it all went against us! Their keeper could've been sent off and then suddenly it's 3 nil! A bit worrying how easily it does seem to be able to score against us at times, but overall we are in a good place. Onwards and upwards on Tuesday
Don't worry be happy!

I couldn't tune in today but reading between the lines, the game wasn't helped with Kenyon going off, he's been playing out of his skin for Derek.
Rough with the smooth and still doing better than most would have given credit for.

Not helped, but not the problem really. Songo'o played well.

Crawley made a change that worked really well for them. Poor second half. Hopefully bounce back on Tuesday.

Kenyon going off was a factor. The starting 11 unchanged winning unit, suddenly wasn’t.

Quite amazing how we can be 0.0 at the break, thinking can we nick the winning goal in the 2nd half, Derek must be scraping the wall having kept the same team which doesnt happen to us very often.
Back to the drawing board for Tuesday.

Still in a good place even if we win a few by one goal, then lose by 4 or 5.

We are desperate for a goalscorer, although we have the same goal difference as Bolton and 8 more points
Enjoy yourself.... It is later than you think

Yep we are definitely missing a goalscorer and its looking like AJ is going to be plagued with injuries again which is a real shame . Its great having a couple of midfielders who can score now and again but you cannot rely on them all the time , the only real test for their keeper today came from a full back. ;)

Wonder if Derek knows any strikers that are without a club.

Surely Pringle will come in on Tuesday against winless Mansfield.

We either win or get battered.... no middle ground. But as said above 3 wins 1 battering I would take that all season

I think we miss a player who can create chances more than one who can finish them. We could do with a player who can score certainly, but when we've created chances I think we've done a pretty good job at putting them away this season.

The problem is we create chances pretty rarely. I'm not sure we had a 1-on-1 or a free header today, all of the "chances" we had were carved out with defenders surrounding our players.

Part of me wonders if it's a tactical thing though, because we've had the exact same problem for years. It seems like the way we set up with 1 big man up front, 1 defensive mid and 4 "attacking" midfielders very rarely creates chances.

Tight game that we may have just edged in the first half. Same after the break but their striker they brought on gave them a lot more punch going forward with his pace.

Hit on the break for the first, then I thought we stayed in the game pretty well. Big turning point was the CMG incident, then after that we got a bit stretched and conceded three in 10 mins, just like against Cambridge basically.

A bit of a concern that our heads keep going like this. We seem to bounce back game to game but managing those 10 mins after conceding seems to be an issue.

Bit of a change probably needed for Tuesday. Would be good to see Pringle get a start to add a bit more guile going forward. We're playing a pretty miserable Mansfield side so hopefully we can take the game to them properly and grab a win!

Being able to change things after a defeat is probably the biggest difference with this squad compared to previous years. Derek rightly kept a winning team together but now he will be able to make changes with hungry players coming in to the starting line up against Mansfield. Lets hope for a positive response.

Spot on, think there will probably be a few changes for Tuesday - especially to keep everyone fresh too. Can see Pringle getting in ahead of Phillips maybe as he made a number of sloppy passes today. Diagouraga/Songo'o at CDM probably with Kenyon's injury, and maybe even Knight Percival coming back in.

I hope DA sticks with today’s starting 11, or Toums in if Kenyon is injured, and treats today as a “write off.”

I can see the arguement for sticking with today's 11 but I am leaning towards wanting some fresh legs. There is some real depth in the squad and it would be good to see Pringle get a start. We could put out a team of giants with the likes of Toums, Songo'o and Slew coming in.

Fair comments. Whatever team crosses that line Tue, we know that it will be reasoned, and very carefully thought through by DA.

Also got to factor in, we play Saturday-Tuesday every week for six out of the next seven weeks, so need to give rest to players to avoid 'little niggles' becoming bigger issues.
