Amoo looks like he’s running in quicksand at the moment. If he hasn’t got the kind of speed he’s known for there’s really no point playing him as he offers little else.

Every time we play FGR they try and do this sweeper keeper thing and just looks a recipe for disaster.

 

[Shrimper92]

Green lucky not to be on a yellow, so many fouls

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Nothing has happened at all in 45 mins.

 

[Bottega Don]

That was tragic.

Two shocking sides, wouldn't be shocked if we were the two that went down.

Saddest part is we're generally a lot worse in the 2nd half.

 

[Shrimper92]

Pathetic dive by the Grimsby player. Should be thrown into the sea for that

 

[valefan16]

Frustrating from our point of view, really bad goal, stupid free kick to give away and no one dealt with the ball in, think it was an OG possibly.

We’ve got into ok positions but lack any real confidence to do much with it. Still in the game but need to up the levels a bit.

 

[kieran_vale]

Would say 1-0 to them is an accurate summing up of that half. We are trying but not got the quality.

Hurst is having his worst game for us, push Rodney wide and throw on Guthrie I would get some physical presence in there.

 

[BlackHaddock]

Bloody awful first half in Cleethorpes, Southend almost as bad as us; but not quite! Pitch in a terrible state, team also in a terrible state.

 

[Gladders]

Poor pitch, poor game, two poor sides, can see why both at the bottom.

Southend probably doing slightly better but that's not saying much.

 

[Bottega Don]

McGahey off at half time, oh great yet another injury. Just can't catch a break this season

 

[GTFCfish]

Christ this thread is depressing.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Christ this thread is depressing.

Are Bolton winning yet?

 

[Bottega Don]

And that's game over

We are fucking doomed

 

[kieran_vale]

I don’t get taking off Hurst for Guthrie. Would have removed Amoo who has contributed nothing or Joyce off and go two up top.

Brown got very lucky after completing misjudging the trajectory of that free kick.

 

[Shrimper92]

Ref is hopeless

 

[Bottega Don]

Gonna be about 10 minutes added on here due to a very bad looking injury for Luke James, hope it's nothing serious but it doesn't look great

 

[Son of Cod]

Ref is hopeless

Yeah he's been poor. Green probably should have been booked earlier, but the one he got booked for was bought and paid for by the Southend lot there.

 

[Shrimper92]

Green could have been off today. State of this ref

 

[valefan16]

What a strike Dave!

 

[Shrimpurh]

Green must’ve given away a record amount of fouls today

 

[kieran_vale]

Talk about a goal out of nothing.

 

[Chris FGR]

Well taken by Rodney, but we stood and watched there. Close him down ffs.

 

[PaulHaddock]

We’re terrible for fouls but Southend are also acting like a bunch of bastards.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

Those chances just previous we spurned had equaliser due written all over them

 

[Son of Cod]

We’re terrible for fouls but Southend are also acting like a bunch of bastards.

Yeah the Nathaniel-George one just then when Hendrie caught him was ridiculous. McCormack deserved his booking.

 

[Bottega Don]

Scott Quigley with dive of the year contender, somehow he wasn't booked

 

[CTFCfan99]

Yet another late goal conceded, we might not have played that well today but fuck me this is getting ridiculous. Every other game it happens

 

[Bottega Don]

Well Junior Brown has just got a second booking for Scott Quigley holding him on the floor

Unbelievable

 

[shoddycollins]

Not a bad day for us so far... youse all are shite
