Weren't we really good against Peterborough though? i didn't see that game, but the stuff on here was positive.
But they didn’t.Quote:

Well said, the number of times we had a pass ahead of us, took three seconds over it then made the same pass or went sideways or backwards... absolutely mind numbing. That and the fact that both wingers can't get a cross within 5 yards of the closest City player. Really worrying, how many years did we extend Tanner to do his customary three great things a season and barely look like he can kick a ball straight the rest of it? Willock might as well not be on the pitch.Quote:

Very poor tonight, but it’s our second game. Away against a side that were right up for it. Final ball was just massively lacking. I don’t think Chambers should have come straight in, nor should he be CB. I think Fish should start, maybe alongside Daaland. Needs physicality in this league, look at how they treated Salech.
We were good on Saturday and I think we will be again. Take a point and move on.
I don’t think anyone deserved more than a 6 today and I’d give the others 4/5.
A lacklustre performance coupled with some serious poor quality.
Easy to pick Tanner out because he had a lot of the ball, but yet again had one of his games that wasn’t even conference standard.
Willock could have been off the pitch and had more of an impact.
Bagan was lucky not to get sent off.
Chambers doesn’t even stand out in league one.
A point and hopefully a wake up call. Would like to see J Colwill have a seat on the bench next game
We didn't look like scoring throughout the whole 90 minutes against a side that was league 2 last season. They were better than us in every department. Are Port Vale on of the better teams in league 1 ? Because if they're just bang average we're in for a 46 game struggle.Quote:

(Just an honest opinion! Hopefully I am wrong and he smashes it)
I've no idea which moron at ccfc thought we needed a GK when the whole side is a joke even at L1 standard. We aint going up after that performance that's for sureQuote:

I think Peterborough were an ideal 1st opponent. Young side not very physical. Their only real physical player gave us issues.Quote:

The 2 outfield changes made us worse as well.
Tanner had a complete and utter mare today which didn't help.
Unless this idiotic board back the manager we will struggle.

No, he must be good, we surely haven't got another dud.Quote:

ahhh come on now and behave....we are top of the league after 2 matches. Tan is grinning like a Cheshire cat spending almost no money at allQuote:

They were playing a few Tom Jones songs at full time, and I know stokes song is Delilah. What is it with our Tom in that part of the world ?
Not sure about that. I like him as a player but he was subbed off.Quote:

I think there are some pretty definitive answers we can take from thatQuote:

Some of the overreactions to a 0-0 draw on this thread are almost as extreme as the overreactions to Saturday’s victory. But not quite.
Horvath wants to go, Alnwick isn't very good. Trott was fine, no? I don't see what he did wrong tonightQuote:

There are obvious weak links in the team that BBM needs to address but hey we're undefeated and move on to the next game.
Bit of a wasted 9 hours!
The star of the show was our support.
Trott was my MoM by some way, especially the point blank save in the first half.
We were very predictable and easy to figure out / defend against.
Tanner & Willock very frustrating!
Goodnight!
We got away with an undeserved point tonight so that’s a positive! We need to start learning how to defend corners because Port Vale got “first contact”, as they say in modern football speak , from nearly every delivery into our box.
Thankfully they are not a very good team so couldn’t finish .
Willock and Chambers as senior pros were very poor. I’m pretty sure Willock’s heart isn’t in it and Chambers just isn’t a dominant centre half
Felt sorry for Salech as he was so isolated - at times no team mates were within 20 yards of him .
We got a point because of Port Vale’s limitations in that they lacked quality up front but they worked hard and were very physical.
Trott looked confident in goals, Salech battled but was very isolated and had no service , Kpakio was okay and Wintle kept showing for the ball even though he was below the standard set on Saturday and he improved when Turnbull joined him in midfield. The rest were not very good this evening
Just got back, 2.00am, read through all the posts, I won’t say anything about Tanner,I’ll leave it up to others .
We need our players to frigging shoot and not try and score the perfect goal
It’s an over simplification of course because there was much more wrong with us than just this, but you increase the number of experienced players from last season by two and our performance goes down the tubes. Thought Chambers improved in the second half, but I’ve no idea what he was doing in the first forty five minutes. Willock, I just don’t get, but I thought Tanner was even worse than him.Quote:
