Bradbury’s time to shine. A bit like Lewis a few years back when having to cover for injuries.

Statler and Waldorf will be pleased to see Dan gone. Good luck to Bradbury.

Well look at that, Nlundulu should have done better in front of goal and then we get hit on the break and passed around like we are statues. Shocker.

Another gift of a goal. Our defenders strolling back whilst Morecambe passed the ball around them.
Total lack of awareness.

Game's not been great but I'm stuck with the Morecambe commentary and I can tell you that's 100x worse. I'll never complain about Halliwell/Matthews/Young again, at least they try to be somewhat impartial.

Nothing clicking, sticking or running for us. Only hope is that a couple of players are looking ok and might spark something at some point.

One thing that bewilders me is how often opposition sides...

GET IN ALFIE! Ferry and Sercombe, 5he two players I meant, combining to send Alfie away.

...smash the ball clear and there's one of their players fighting for it and they gain possession. Every time we smash the ball clear it's only ever giving possession back.

They're now crying about not getting that ridiculously soft penalty shout 2 minutes before our goal, hilarious

Ferry's quality and composure stands out, rivalled only by Sercombe, in the first two thirds of the pitch, I think.

Ferry is very good. Great wing play and crossing when he came on at Rovers.

Defenders struggling to get back into position again. We’re throwing this game away.

Nlundulu is literally a waste of a shirt out there. He isn't interested, other than trying to do something selfish on the rare occasion he gets the ball.

So frustrating, this game is there for the taking but for these Sunday league mistakes

Quite a few of our players look a bit lost out there.

Why does nothing ever fall for one of our players in the opposition box

Thought that many times. I guess because our players don't gamble enough or, if they do, they have a c!#p sense of where the ball might go!

Very similar to Bristol Rovers this, we really shouldn't be losing at this point but only ourselves to blame

Caleb Taylor lightly grabs the Morecambe player's shirt. Morecambe commentator: 'he's been absolutely bear-hugged there!!'

How are these people employed

Can’t comment on the performance because not following the game at all, but a desperately poor result as it stands.

Lancashire gobshites. Same county that produces the likes of Ten Bobsworth, Paddy McGuiness and Peter Kay.

Performance hasn't been much better than that, considering the opposition. Better than FGR. Gifting Morecambe 3 points with their 2 goals, though.

Doesn’t sound great at all. I like to differentiate between overall performance and individual mistake moments, but doesn’t sound like the overall performance has been up to much.

I'd say it's going to be a long January but based on previous we are likely to get something off Derby, Plymouth and Sheff Weds...

I wouldn't blame any individuals for the goals. Bonds could have done better for the second but the whole team was all over the place.
