    Murphy

    He did yesterday. He was very ponderous. Maybe they looked at the tapes in training and saw that their full backs were very pacy and that had some bearing in Murphy not talking them on?

    Murphy

    He is pacy. It's not a myth. He was sluggish yesterday though. He clearly has pace.

    We are far from the finished article

    TM's words after yesterday's defeat. Though I am sure most of us would tend to agree with him, it is also very worrying for the end of the season isn't it? Yesterday's team: RCC Ricketts Cargill Stephens Stokes Fleck Vincelot Murphy Madison Cole Armstrong Now look at that team post...

    Who is to blame?

    That's happened before. Players who have known they aren't being retained having a drop in form and desire. Coleman did it didn't he? The numpty! Thought it was wise to tell players before the end of the season that they wouldn't be needed at the end of the season.

    Don't deserve promotion now

    But that's obviously what he meant. Where in there has he said we 'will' make the play-offs? You're reading into something that isn't there I think. Torch is obviously saying if we got to Wembley this guy will be moaning about not having a ticket. He didn't have to put 'if,' as it was plainly...

    Who is to blame?

    Yeah, but you are talking about spanking teams for fun. To my mind we have done that 4 times. Millwall 4-0, Gillingham 4-1 and then Crewe and Bury. That's 2 spankings without Anderson and 2 with. Let's not paint a false picture here.

    Don't deserve promotion now

    I think he's talking about 'if' we make it, not when.

    Who is to blame?

    Our two best 'spankings' though are Crewe 5-0 and Bury 6-0 and Anderson was here for both of those.

    Who is to blame?

    TM has also said in his post match that Fleetwood might be in a false position. Well they've been in a false position for many months then. I've looked back month on month and they pretty much always been in or around the bottom 4. Maybe it's us who's in the false position.

    Who is to blame?

    Because it's a coincidence and we need a scapegoat?

    Sheffield United

    Giving him abuse is hardly going to make him play any better is it. He is very much a confidence player I would say. His head drops quite quickly, so fans baying for his blood is hardly going to help him regain form. We have a dilemma now though. Cole struggles to play 2 games in a row and...

    Don't deserve promotion now

    As someone has already stated, we could actually be out of the play-off positions come Tuesday night. To suddenly fall out of the top 6 places after being in there for so, so long would be a massive body blow and cause a real dent to our confidence. If that happens I have to say, a part of me...

    Who is to blame?

    I just looked. At Christmas we were 2 points behind Walsall in 1st place and also 2 points Burton in 2 place. As it stand now we are 12 points behind Burton in 1st place and 10 points behind Wigan in 2nd place. That is one hell of a fall from grace. Burton have been stuttering too, so it could...

    Murphy

    That's the big concern. If Lameiras came in and grabbed that role by the scruff of the neck he'd be playing every week. Too often he flatters to deceive. Murphy seemed to lack pace yesterday.

    Who is to blame?

    Big factor I think. If you recall, in the transfer window TM said we just missed out on a wide player and then the budget dictated we could no longer bring one in. We have been desperate for someone who can go down the wing and get the ball into the box. Something seriously has to change now...

    Sheffield United

    Disagree there. People jumped up out of their seats and started cheering. Didn't come across as relief to me. More, yes! About time!

    Team for Tuesday. What would you change?

    I just wish he would give Ricketts a rest. He's gone from a reliable steady Eddie to an error prone, slow as a tortoise weak Iink.

    The whole starting 11 today (bar RCC)

    I didn't understand all the stick for Murphy. He was very frustrating for sure, but I think that was more down to the wrong choices he made as much as anything else. I was crying out for him to take players on rather than keep crossing it from deep or shooting from the same angle. Seemed like...

    Fleetwood. Player ratings

    He was. Can't see that he did anything wrong at all. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk

    Would like to see Henderson get a start too. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk
