The players must very much take the brunt of the blame, but I can't see how anyone can argue that our management team wasn't outwitted by theirs. Wood's mistake let them back in the game, but then when they started to get on top that was the time for our bench to react to what was going on and...

Your manager got his tactics spot on in the 2nd half. Only reason people on here haven't praised Bury is because they are so angry with our own 2nd half effort that is all they feel they can concentrate on.

Bury looked dangerous 2nd half, but their shooting was abysmal.

Don't think any of us believed Eric Black would be a success after the disaster that was Gary McAllister and with Black himself being part of that very management team. Simply unreasonable to say that any of AT's team would be a disaster. Every man to himself is an individual and would do...

An awful lot of people have seemingly changed their minds on him after yesterday.

Can go one of two ways. We win next game and it's 1 win, 3 draws, undefeated. Won't look at all bad. 4 games undefeated and a win. If we lose though, 3 draws and 1 defeat and then it's all going to look quite awful with no wins in 4 games. Draw again of course and it's as we were and it's...

Very impressed with him. Future England international perhaps if he keeps developing as he is now?

If we could keep a lead we would still be in the Championship.

I am in the ATB. I must be because I am told I am, despite my never calling for Thorn to be sacked and also praising him when he does get it right.

None I would imagine. The game does last 90 mins though and not 45 and we threw away a 2-0 lead against a team we were all expecting to beat.

He might be identifying them, but seems to be doing fook all in terms of doing something about them. :D

Cos Thorn likes us to spray the ball about? :facepalm:

Read my post and you will see that nowhere have I said if a player makes a mistake it's not his fault. Poster after poster though keeps pointing out to you the fact that you are praising the manager for the first half and blaming the players for the 2nd. Why is Thorn praised for the 1st half...

Yes of course there are 43 games left, but last season we kept losing points from winning positions (something like 30 in the end i think). New season, 3 games in and we have lost points from winning positions in each of the 3 games. Why would you think that is going to change? No certainty...

6 points lost from winning positions. Sound familiar? And it's only 3 games in. And what happened to hitting the ground running and our being one of the favourites? Yep, early days, but we only played well for 20 mins against Sheff Utd and 45 against Bury and not at all at Yeovil. Doesn't...

The bottom line is that the buck stops with the manager. And if it was the players at fault just who brought those players to the club? :thinking about: I said earlier that at half-time I was already thinking up my opening post for when I came home and it was in praise of Thorn and the team...

He's not going to be sacked after just 3 games. This carries on though and we fail to win in the next few games then I think the fans will force him out rightly or wrongly as they really will turn on him big time.

Fair point. Seemed to me to be the wrong move to take McDonald and Baker off.

They nullified us by putting us on the back foot and they started overrunning us through the middle of the park at pace. We should have countered that.

Will's your 46 year old son then I take it?
