We got so many crosses in this week. Really encouraging stuff but no one managed to get a boot on them.

Really unfortunate today. You'd hope that sub wasn't tactical as Ceesay was probably our best player up to that point. Colclough also played very well as usual. It's becoming apparent that we're not putting our chances away

2 bang average teams not testing the opposition keeper for 90mins.

The question that needs asking to PP 'Why bring Ceesay off, and why for Peers when Hardy is sat on the bench?'

Not very impressed to be honest

Dagenham & Redbridge seemed both to pass and retain the ball far better than us. You sensed that Wright would score from that free kick after his first-half 'sighter'.

We dearly miss Smith, who has been a huge upgrade on Williams.

Plenty of crosses into their box but our putative strikers simply seem to vanish. It's all so frustrating.

That's seven defeats in our last 10 league fixtures now.

Glad I wasn’t there to watch that, dreadful stuff, commentary more enjoyable.
Striker needed up top to quote John Helm.
Ritchman did ok as did Hancock, but the rest were poor.
Really missed Smith last 2 games.
Kings Lynn up next and improvement needed, Bell needs to start to see what he can do in the endless search for a striker.

Williams is not to blame here - we need to be putting our chances away

Williams and Moult play sideways - Smith plays forward.

Completely agree. PP and NS's game is all about retaining possession, which without Smith and Kysolo (who does so further up the pitch) we simply didn't do today. D&R were the better team, although on another day those half chances from crosses might've seen us get a win.

John Helm was a pleasure to listen to so much more enjoyable than the usual commentary.

Peers for Ceesay was a very strange sub.

Ogle is no better than Hampson.

Clearly wasn’t behind closed doors either with groups of people in front of the sports hall.

I thought the performance was a condensed version of our season. Plenty of crosses, no goals. Needless free kick costs us the game. Richman should start on Tuesday, our best player when he came on. There was really only one shot that needed saving in the whole match, and I'm not blaming TT for failing to stop it.

Gutted again with result... another defeat in game would normally hope to win... maybe i should wait 24hrs before posting as at mo it is all a little frustrating...

We had several chances via crosses into the box from Ceesay, Colclough, & Richman but no-one could get on end of these... there wasn't much between the teams and draw looked most likely as both teams missing a goalscorer... unfortunately great freekick into top corner won it...

Thought today we'd win... season appears to be fizzling out to midtable finish as hopes of playoffs drifting away... too many bad results lately...

Injuries, leading to multiple team changes & loanees (though some good) aint helped... need stable & settled team... would've taken midtable start of season... Tues should be winable against makeshift Kings Lynn side, but then again thought today would be a win so who knows...

Hoping Smithy will be back... also thought it strange neither Connor or White on bench (think White injured) - when Ogle went off at H/T thought Ringo did well... Roll on Tues...

Trying to think positively guess would have taken midtable at start of season against mostly full time teams... just bit frustrating as think we are a decent striker away from being playoff contenders - but need for a top striker has been said before... Parky & the Board keep trying... keep the faith!

Despite season maybe fizzling out we can still hopefully look forward to attending last game (or couple games) of season - as long as BoJo, Trafford Council, & Covid permit...

COYR!

Hannigan made that awful tackle to give them the goal and Ritchman more a threat from RB.
But hey, what do I know.

Getting back to the game, I really fancy us to win this one and that's a bad sign.
Hope I'm wrong 😅
I'm going for a 2-0 win! 😉

I just knew I should have kept my big mouth shut! 🤬
