How would you suggest implementing taking it away?
Whilst any behavioural issues need addressing, the U Block safe standing has nothing to do with people acting stupidly and chucking things. If they’re identified, deal with it. Branding the whole area a problem would lead to unnecessary bad feeling with a vital part of the club’s support.
Getting the message out from the club/Dale1907 about how important it is to represent the club properly is different. |

Really nice bit of honesty from Watson in his interview where he talks about not having Henderson on the bench previously.
Good chance he could equal the record in the next couple of weeks. |

McNulty from then may have pointed at the opposition which would sit in, preventing a team playing so expansively. McNulty of this season would point at his team scoring freely at the top of League One. |

That’s a fair point about the opposition. Teams are more open, then you see games where neither team has control. It’s that the passing and choices are so average at times.
Can we find a way to gain control or do we continue to play in an open way? Think getting the right combination in midfield may be the answer.
Watson confirms Dieseruvwe out with a hamstring injury. He says they’re looking at why the injuries are occurring. |

Agree with your first paragraph, it is panning out like that. The only worry is ensuring we increase the gap from the bottom two in case there’s a bad run.
Which is why I disagree with the second paragraph! The quality of teams is all much of a muchness with few truly controlling games. There is more physicality and it’s quicker, but the basic standard of play is very average so far - possibly because of how frantic it is. That said, Grimsby were the best team I’ve seen albeit easy to get at when you go wide.
It’s interesting to see reactions to games though (not specifically yours BtB!). Something that was discussed on the podcast last week was performance v result, is winning above everything or does a good display trump that? Maybe entrenched opinions to suit an argument sometimes ensure it reflects on how sone view a game/result?
As long as fans continue to support, that’s the main thing! |

Cracking game of football. Very open, but that’s the way we play and it’s a trade off that’s still collecting points.
Grimsby will be disappointed after dominating after half time but the change after Henderson came on meant they may be happy with a point after that Brown miss.
Petit’s return may give us a bit more control in midfield but for now it’ll be a bit of a basketball game at times. |

The associated nonsense that will inevitably occur should we draw Bury makes a trip to Gillingham seem positively attractive. |

Out for 10 weeks as per Watson’s post match interview. Never known a season like it for long term injuries.
The general quality across the division is reflected in the table at present. Two points off 4th, four points ahead of 23rd.
Any side who can put a run together has a chance. |

Thought he did well when he came on. Gilmour and Tasker were probably our best players although everyone on the pitch seemed averse to passing the ball well at times. |

He should have had a hat-trick but still a fantastic player to watch.
Will take a point there, they probably should have scored more but we looked a threat too. Need to move the ball quickly to look a good side. The quality at this level remains unimpressive. |

It was still a cracking goal. More concerning was nobody seemed to move to stop the shot.
We look too pedestrian at times, not moving the ball quickly enough and wrong choices made. |

Back four warming up with TAR at right back and Tasker left.
No Smith, Hayes starts. Henderson missing from the squad again. |

It’s also a shame the midweek fixture isn’t a week later when it’s half-term. That would have probably seen an increased attendance.
As it is, would be happy with 2500 home fans that night (may change if we win the next two) |

What would you do differently with the ‘wanding’?

Did you mean Sherring is better at full back than centrally?
It was his best performance on Saturday as a right back and last night saw some poor choices again back as a centre half. Not more so than standing there asking for offside (which it was) when they scored their fourth.
Beckwith would be the cover at CH until EEL is back with both Tasker and TAR able to cover either full back position. |
