General consensus was that the substitutions at Alfreton cost us the game and yet  JH says he still doesn't understand how we lost.

Am I alone in being worried by this apparently total lack of insight ?

I think Jim knows perfectly well why we lost at Alfreton. Obeng won't be there at least and I don't think we'll be seeing Goodall coming on for McWilliams any time soon. I am worried that we haven't delved into the loan market for another striker though. I just don't see Marsh doing it for us.

My initial reaction was, oh Christ. But then I thought, wouldn't it be just like us to raise our game for that particular match.

I'm going to stick my neck out here. I actually think we'll beat Blyth reasonably comfortably, so long as Jim doesn't muck around with the team who was very comfortable for 86 minutes at Alfreton.

Good luck to the lad obviously, but from the two occasions I saw him play, he contributed precisely nothing.

Deasy, Patterson, McWilliams, Hannigan, Cyrus, Moult, Richman, Lawrie, Miller, Wilkinson and Reeves - basically, Saturdays team minus the keeper. If you didn't go, we really DID play well, so MarpleAlty is correct to say avoid wholesale changes. If somehow, we could get the majority of that lot signing on for next season, we'd have half a chance irrespective of which league we are in. I just can't see Densmore ever returning.

The starting 11 on Saturday were very good. Look, I'd take relegation if we could get that starting 11 to sign up now. I just don't think many of them will opt to stay.

Whilst I appreciate that everyone is entitled to their opinion, my view is that the substitutions did directly impact on yesterday's game. By taking the energy levels of McWilliams and Lawrie from the team, we effectively invited a very poor Alfreton team onto us. In which planet would Goodall and Obeng have tightened our defence up? I'm still very upset after yesterday and even more upset that the question of substitutions wasn't put to Jim Harvey in the interview.

As one of the travelling fans today I can tell those who missed it that there was real anger at the end. It was undoubtedly the best performance of an abysmal season ...yet we walk away with feck all. Undone by schoolboy defending on 2 x long throws into the box, even Stevie Wonder could see the goals coming from the normal scramble in the box when they simply wanted it more.

The support are losing it big time with JH ....quite why he meddled with the formation and personnel towards the end when we had genuinely outplayed a poor side beggars belief. McWilliams had a sound game, no need for him to be subbed for No Legs Goodall. Reevesy had just missed an absolute sitter, so his reward was the hook in favour of Marsh...but at least this was a straight swap.

Lots of angry people and scenes at the end, a groundswell of ill feeling towards Mr Harvey. There had been some really good performances by Moult ( best game of the season by miles), Hannigan, Miller, McWilliams, Richman, Patterson. An absolute travesty of a result, we had more than enough chances to win this game. Willko through on keeper first half, sitter missed by Reevesy, Miller smacked the post, loads of shots blocked etc etc.

This was a much better formation until he changed it and messed about over complicating it...really gutting loss.

If you didn't go to today's game, this post sums it up 100% perfectly.

That's not entirely fair. We were by far the better team today. Defeat was purely down to our manager's tactical naivety. Goodall for McWilliams ffs. I'm traditionally not a fan of Lawrie, but he did ok today and he's 10x the player of Obeng. I've not seen Marsh have a shot yet. Really angry tonight, because that was daylight robbery.

McWilliams didn't look injured to me. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm sick to my back teeth of Goodall.

We lost that game to a team much much worse than us. The manager should definitely walk for some of the most abysmal substitutions I have ever seen.

I remember that Spain had a player called Ufarte at the 1982 World Cup. Just googled him and apparently, he was nicknamed 'the little devil'. I bet he was.

                  Dawber
Obeng Morrison Hannigan McWilliams
   
     Richman Thomas Lenighan

   Lawrie       Reeves      Wilkinson

Thomas in midfield? Well, why not? Not a bad call, might as well try something different. Still nothing up front though. No Miller? He's our only forward player who looks even remotely dangerous or indeed arsed at the moment.

It's fairly obvious that we need another striker on loan for Reeves looks horribly isolated whatever the formation.

I'm going. I've not seen us lose away this season!
