The Lower League Thread

On the way back from Nottingham forest wasn't good forest defo deserved to win but the ref was appalling the first pen for them was a joke Hanley hardly touched him and lansbury went down soo easily he then scored a pen which Eastwood so nearly saved they then got another pen when henley bought down patterson that looked more like a pen but still not sure and he whacked that in too celebrating and kissing the notts forest badge in front of the blackburn fans pissed me off and after that he got nearly every decision wrong but ultimately forest deserved it and looked alot better than us very quick too we did hit the post at 2-1 which was gutting. Marshall goal was us for quality! Big game home to derby next week

Desperately unlucky not to take something from QPR yesterday. If Ward or Hogg could have taken golden chances in the first half we could have been out of sight by the break, but they didn't and we faced a quality striker in Austin. We had a warning in an extraordinary bit of play when they hit the bar twice and Smithies made a save in about five seconds. But we took plenty of positives, playing much the better football and reducing QPR to threatening from set-pieces alone.

Pleased to see Simon Eastwood doing well. When he left us he looked destined for a career in non-league anonymity as he had a problem with letting lots of stoppable goals in, but he's doing well. I assume that he's not had cramp after an hour at any point, though? Made one appearance for Town and that's what happened

Ince sacked, not a surprise. Even when they were doing well earlier in the season, it was still obvious what was going to happen when the season really got going.

Very poor manager and comes across as thick as two short planks, too.

Hasn't he not been sacked from almost every club he's managed, bar Macclesfield?

Resigned because he wasn't being given what he felt was a competitive budget after finishing 13th. Karl Robinson guided them to the play-offs 2 years running after that.

Three new signings for us today.

Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro (tranmere) joins on loan until the end of the season
Andrew Tutte (Rochdale) signed on a permanent deal
Oh and.....yeah.....Clive Platt *shudders*

Marco Navas left the club leaving Jesus all alone in his City wonderland

What do you make of Brandy resigning from us on loan? Really hot headed character, two sendings off for us this season, psychically he's brilliant, technically he's poor.

Seems to take players on with ease but to no end product, not rated by us lot anyway.

Was there no FLS last night?

Correct.

Bullshit, anyone know why? There were a lot of games on. It's like when there were no Championship games but a full roster of leagues one and two yet the Beeb still didn't have a FLS.

There were only 4 Championship games, not really fair on Leagues 1 and 2 I agree but I'm guessing that's the reason!

If anything it was a good chance to give more coverage to L1 and 2.

Couldn't go to Barnsley away today which I was gutted about but we drew 2-2 by the sounds of it we hammered them 1st half and Cairney scored a wonder goal but 2nd half again we sat back we always do that and it never works 14 shots in the 1st half 0 from 45-70 mins we had late chances too but didn't score 2 points dropped I feel there was even 9 minutes added on after a bad injury to Williamson our 2nd in 2 weeks. Rhodes had late chances too. Need to beat Blackpool at home on Saturday!
