Got to take that in the end but that is the kind of team we should be beating.

I've edited it for you. That doesn't look good. Any fans who bought a replica shirt, are asked to come in for training this week, as we may be needed to make up the bench at Swansea! :cry:

Poor result and a poor performance. Slew, Yann and a criminally dropped Bloxham performed well. Brown also looked lively in the 2nd half.

We were a mess, no organisation at all which led to conceding the goals we did. Can't get away with a firsf half as bad as that and then just chuck the sink at in the second half hoping to get something.

A scraped 2-2 draw at home to Harrogate Town (who looked desperately mediocre) is arguably a more disappointing result than the result that immediately preceded it. Didn’t see anything at all in that performance today that makes me think we are going to win anything other than the odd game where the opposition has completely forgotten to turn up (as they sometimes do in league two a la doncaster the other week) any time soon. Don’t think there was a shortage of effort from the players today, but as a unit we just look totally disorganised and directionless both with and without the ball. 17th position now but 18th if you take into account the points deduction that we will surely receive. It’s going to be a hard slog until the end of the season to get us up above 50points me thinks.

Bloxham has been unwell, so that’s why he was on the bench.

What was the handbags at dawn all about after we scored the equaliser...and at the end of the game...the Harrogate goalkeeper seemed to hand something to the referee...who then handed it to the chief steward...

Good to see Slew get MOTM as well...

Are you having a laugh? They Draw with Wrexham, beat Notts County, beat Grimsby, Beat Accrington then draw against us. A very good point for us imo

Ged clearly doesn't fancy Bloxham one bit. Has he played a full 90 yet? Hooked first against Notts County and he looked fine in the 60odd mins he played today.

Somebody chucked a metal object at the keeper, he picked it up and handed it to Ref. Not good when we are walking a fine line with the FA

The 'handbags' were due to our players trying to get the ball back from their keeper who was determined to hang onto it in the back of the net, presumably to slow things down. It was actually quite amusing because in his determination to not let go he got battered, bounced and buffeted all over the back of the net.

Unfortunately after the game finished some brain dead moron decided to launch an object towards their keeper. This was possibly the second object thrown as I saw a flash of something else on the lights heading in his direction shortly before this. It bounced past him but he made a beeline for it and picked it up. It looked similar to a cigarette lighter or a vape. If it goes in the referees report we could face a hefty fine which we could really do without.

For their second Yann had joined in with our forward players and was way upfield. When they launched a swift counter attack he really struggled to get back into defence. Injury, fatigue and maybe ageing legs all played a part in this I feel. When I saw this I immediately feared the worst and shortly after this we were exposed and conceded the second.

Yann is such a trooper that he plays game in game out despite any issues he may be facing. In a larger squad than ours he may be due a well deserved break but it doesn't appear that it will happen any time soon.

He got a really well deserved ovation after he limped off late on.

What do you know that Stuart Moore doesn't?

Yes.
He played 90 minutes in two of Ged's nine games in charge (Wrexham & Newport).
He played 90 minutes in three out of the previous fifteen games under Derek.

100% agree. He's another who Stuart Moore said needed a rest, but the squad is so thin, that he needs to play. Gave his all, but we got caught out.

I don't get this 'we should be beating teams like Harrogate' that some people are suggesting (more on Facebook than here). Why? They appear to be a well run club, who have a bigger budget than us. A wealthy backer who is actually putting money in to the club, rather than a leach, sucking the life out of it. They have a squad of 32 (+ 1 out on loan). We're doing well just going toe to toe with them at the moment, and certainly have no divine right to be "beating teams like Harrogate".

This is the same Harrogate who drew with Wrexham and beat Notts County

We have no right to beat anyone

Bloxham was usually the one to get hooked first by Derek, his legs generally go around 60 mins. Deserved to be dropped IMO, his abysmal tracking back has been fairly catastrophic. MK took the lead in the second half due to him failing to follow his runner, and Harrogate's first today came from him failing to follow his man back.

BLOXHAM WAS NOT DROPPED !!!!!!!!!!!!

He had been unwell ALL week which was mentioned on the iPlayer by both Co-Commentator Stuart Moore and the Beyond Radio commentator.

No conspiracy theories to be had here.

Move on.

Yeah they might have got some decent results this season but we were all watching the same game right? On the pitch they didn't look like a particularly good team at all and at home against a team playing as averagely as that, we should be looking to take all 3 points.
