Pathetic

Have no idea how to sort this shower of poo poo but I wish RW all the best with it.

Absolute rubbish .1 shot on target . First half we had 0 shots . Final whistle. 4 shots 1 on target that went straight to the keeper.

Over a year now of being toothless. It’s dire stuff

[Proposition Joe]

Not looking to start any rumblings about Wellens but you make it sound like he's a new manager coming in to sort us out (like he did in March 2022) rather than the manager who's been in charge while we end up looking like the toothless underwhelmers we currently are. Has he had nothing to do with any of this?

He was given a load of players and told ‘these are good enough to finish mid table’ deal with it. There’s no strength in depth.

He’s very much unproven at league one level and it shows in some regards. But I think he’s earnt enough trust that he can turn it around. I am slightly concerned at the lack of effort and intensity in the last few games. If the players stop playing for him it’s only downhill. Don’t think we are there yet

Worrying times. No creativity. Listened to the game . Hardly heard Archibald mentioned. He was played out of the game. Hence no crosses into the box. 4 or 5 players minimum required in January. Moncur , Hunt ! Cooper Prately to be released.

[Reflecto]

I watched the game on Bet365. We started by playing Wellens slow build-up and possession but with little cutting edge. Chesterfield started to press and we conceded an unfortunate goal. Expected us to put them under pressure and attack - but this didn't happen and we just played a long balls through. Overall level of intensity was poor and we showed little L1 guile. Easy win for CFC.

My concern is that Wellens has lost interest / and is hacked off now that we are only in a survival season. He likes it when things go well but doesn't seem to cope well with tough times. Given our cautious style of play and lack of fire power - we will be bottom 6 shortly. The board need to have an objective deep think about where we are - and I wouldn't take any options off the table. As it stands we may well be playing Chesterfield next season...

Moncur is contracted until June 2025.

Ling thought back in 2006 that League 1 was not much different to League 2, maybe he still does

This is a direct quote from my 16 year old son who got the train up there this morning..and is now sat in pub in Chesterfield as the return isn't until 7pm...

"Was worse than the Lincoln game and that was f*cking sh*t"

[Chicken Dhansak]

Seems like we couldn't beat an egg at the moment.

[Mistadobalina]

We were looking reasonably decent up until the Oxford game. Graham's injury seems to have knocked something out of us.

I am starting to get that dread before games that you get when you realise you are going to fully be in a relegation scrap for the season.

Yes, agree with this second paragraph. And this is why we get so many yellow cards. It's a reflection transferred onto the players from the manager because things are not going his way. As we know he's had quite a few himself. Wellens needs to change things from time to time instead of so much concentration on his tippy tappy approach play, especially when we get just outside the box. But I doubt that he will because he very much has a stubborn personality.

[Proposition Joe]

We were doing alright until the first Lincoln game and since then, aside from the emotionally charged game against Reading a few days later, we've really fallen away.

[faith1234]

Like Ricky said we need experience in January we need someone who can put the ball in the net

[whittle76]

I can't see anyone good wanting to come here in January, to a team that will likely be in the bottom half of the table.

[Beradogs]

If we couldn’t find a goal scoring centre forward when we had all summer and more time than all our rivals, how we going to find someone in January.

Many young players can develop it is important to identify potential who will and fit in or a someone near their sell by date with experience who can pop them in.

I dunno at what point the board will wake up and force the "transfer committee" to change his recruitment tactics of waiting until the end of the window to make signings. To save 1 month of wages we end up behind other clubs in quality and fitness. It's a false economy.

RW has said how we were weeks behind at the start of the season due to late recruitment and made an awful start as a result. It's pretty clear Pigott was a panic signing having waited too long. As above how we're going to fix it in January is concerning.

Just hope there's some journeyman out of favour Championship players who will come to put themselves in the window for a permanent contract.

[Top of the JES]

Difficult time of the season. Bang out of form struggling to find a goal, fixtures are looking tough in the next few weeks and the squad needs a refresh, but we have already been told there is no money available.

So it's a test of RW's mettle now to wheel and deal Two out and Two in would be my guess but goal scorer's cost money so we are going to have to be either lucky or inspired.
