However, given what we've had to suffer for the last seven odd years, I suppose that we need to manage expectations and be grateful that we still have a club to support!
As Isaw says; if we achieve anything this season it will be a bonus; we have a lot of rebuilding to do on and off the pitch.0 -
Been at work so haven’t seen any of the game but I predicted a 2-0 defeat. It sucks that we lost but not going to get too despondent. The takeover has given us a glimmer of hope for this season but I’ll take consolidation and a mid table finish tbh as we’re not going to undo the damage that has been inflicted on us recently in a few short weeks and definitely not before the window closes regardless of how many extra bodies we bring in. My mindset is this season can be written off, the season after is where the work really begins. Having said that, if we sneak into the playoffs then brilliant but either way my faith in Bowyer is and will remain 100%.1

In 2018/19, we had (until the end of January) Taylor and Grant up front.
This year we have got Bonne and Washington up front.
And that's why we are going nowhere this year.
Maybe if we bring some new players Bowyer will change the formation and the way we play - but currently you could have David Silva in the centre of the park but he won't do anything if he's sitting that deep all the time.0 -
I wonder if it may have been any different if the red army of fans had been in the stadium. I think It did make a difference the last time we was in this shit league.2
-
I think Bonne is a good player. The way we played today, we didn't really get the bodies up supporting him or Washington, especially in the second half and maybe it would have suited Davison more. Of course the bench player not used is always the solution!
I think there were a number of occasions when passes went backwards and they didn't need too. That is something I would want to look at if I was Bowyer.5 -

I only watched the last 20 mins, it was dreadful. What was the corner about for their second, Oshilaja just kicking it out of play, I never even saw that in the Bromley & Orpington 5th division when I used to play Sunday league. Then a free header for their top scorer.
Our team is a million miles away from top half, let alone promotion. Those talking about how many midfielders we have... Maybe in numbers but not in quality. We need reinforcements all over the pitch.1 -
We fans need to be a bit more patient. We aint going to be Barcelona 48 hours after Tommy rides in . We have a thin squad with a couple of additions added at the last minute. We are not going to run like a well oiled machine given the upheaval we've had over the past few years.26

I agree, but when we get the players in, we do need to see things improve a fair bit.3

On the plus side two of the signings (Levitt and Famewo) look very good at this level, with Watson likely to be the same. A few more similar quality signings In the needed positions and we will have a good season. Bowyer knows where we need to strengthen and will do so5
-
Lincoln are a form side, winning every match over than Liverpool, it was always going to be tough.
Even allowing for the flaws and gaps in our squad, it’s been a disappointing start overall. It does seem that some players, e.g. Bonne, Williams and Morgan seem to have gone backwards . With the squad we have we should be creating and scoring more1 -
Watch Sunderland rub salt in the wound next week by playing McGeady.4
-
Williams needs a bit more of a chance. Morgan hasn't gone backwards. more hasn't yet pushed his game on to match his potential and Bonne probably is a victim of deficiencies around him as much as his own game.1
-
Its a long season. When we dropped from the PL, we started some season's off so brightly, that felt we would walk it, only for a collapse after 10 games in. Lets chill and go with the flow this year.
I hope Bows manages to keep motivation in the team and also not repeat the same press conference week after week.4 -

Need need to work some of these refs maybe devote 15 mins to practice the correct way to fall in the box try and sway some refs everybody else does it.0

Disappointing result, yes. But decisions went against us again which changed the game. Just have to remember that at least we can now improve the squad, whereas this time last week this wasn't the case.4

Let's stop making up crap about Bonne too. He's always been hit and miss!3

The first goal was a crap decision, but we ought to be good enough to overcome it. I disagree with Bowyer's assessment about missing chances. Maybe at the start of the game to a degree but we didn't create much to miss in the second half!0

And I don't get all this Jonny Williams can only play 15 mins bollox. Start your best players & if they tire after an hour then replace them (with Oztumer).
Aaargh.....4 -

ricky_otto said:Few things (forgetting the abysmal decision for the 1st goal). Doughty should be taking games like this by the scruff of the neck....but looked pretty average today. Oshilaja is pants. The way he gifted them the corner for the 2nd goal is inexcusable.Don’t get the Williams thing - fit enough to start for Wales but not in league 1? Don’t understand it.And Bonne - he doesn’t offer us very much at all.We are 6 players short.1
-
We need Chuks. Maybe him and Johnny can win us games in 15 mins. Either starting or finishing a game will do. Lets start Stage 4 of our protests about rolling subs actually!?2

Maybe now he can get some normality, we will see the Bowyer we know and love.0
