I really want T&S to be successful and can't knock them too much but Evans and Clarke are fucking wank and have had enough chances now. They have zero impact on games, they have to stop giving these 2 a role they don't deserve it. We must win these next 3 games to stay in the hunt and these 2 won't help us do that. Clarke wasn't the problem today. He only came on as sub. Today our approach was to go for a point and that was disappointing. At no time did we go full out to win and now the gap is 5 points. Feels deflating after watching that. It felt like a game that never got going. It was a turgid watch and it’s a bit worrying that we couldn’t raise our game. It didn’t help that it was made so disjointed by the ref giving a free kick every time anyone went down.

Yet there's still many many people who think he's got something to offer but he never ever shows it. He quite simply does fuck all and how anyone can stick up for that is beyond me.

You watch him and Don get another year. Evans is already here for next season isn't he?

He's still dining off past 'glories' to many. Not like he was even part of a promotion side, it was cup upsets and play off failures. We're great as a fanbase of giving ex players free passes on the basis of something they were part of years ago. It's 7 years since those cup runs, 7. What does he offer? Donaldson at least got a start and did enough to keep it, fuck knows why Clarke is pretty much first choice attacking sub. He'll be at Harrogate or Halifax next season.

Another cracking McCall signing.

He isn't the only one like that. Very few of our players offer much going forward and that's worrying. The amount of times we passed backwards when in good positions today had me swearing like tourettes champion.

You watch him and Don get another year. Evans is already here for next season isn't he? Yeah he is but I'd be looking to offload him, don't give Clarke a contract even if he is willing to accept a YTS wage. Donaldson has made good contributions this last 3 games but let's not forget how wank he has been for the rest of the season. This a terrible league, the worst bottom tier we've ever seen and we've seen a few and these players aren't good enough for it. Ship them out

RO'D is a good keeper at this level. Shot stopping above average for this level I'd say. His major flaw is coming for crosses. Probably too old for much improvement in this area now. Shot stopping average. Commanding his 6 yard box shite. Distribution poor. We can do better. this distribution thing is a myth. Its league 2, I'm yet to see a keeper with anything other than poor to average distribution.

They've all got more of a threat and more potential to create something in a match rather than the steward killer. Who exactly? Apart from Callum Cooke no one creates anything. Our two wingers and Evans combined for 1 goal and no assists in ten games. Watt has potential and Sutton has unpredictability but there's very little to get excited about.

This a terrible league, the worst bottom tier we've ever seen and we've seen a few and these players aren't good enough for it. Ship them out Who have we got who is genuinely good enough? Rowe and Cook are L2 players Vernam and Crankshaw are league 2 players Watt and Sutton are League 2 players. The back 4 are league 2 players Cooke is a league 1 player. Evans and Clarke are not at all they're conference players. Do we need a lot of new players next season? Yes we do it's quite clear we have big holes in the team. But no matter what our problems are Clarke or Evans will never be the answer to them. If Cooke was back for the rest of the season I'm sure we would all be confident of beating the terrible opposition we play week in week out. He makes that much difference in the 10 spot but I doubt we see him again this month if not the season but I'd rather play scales or Donaldson or Rowe in his place than have Clarke or Evans there. And the same for the wings, I'd rather play Vernam and Crankshaw and Stevens instead of them 2.

Canavan and PoC are good enough. Watt is good enough. Cook is good enough. Rowe and Vernham are good enough. A decent keeper, 2 good fullbacks, a decent CM next to Watt, a quality wide man. Sign up Cook. Thats the list for the summer

If you just replace the out of contract players you're still missing a proper bench

When I say distribution, I just mean being able to kick it over the half way line. My expectations are modest he'll shank a few, but so does every other keeper. In the main though, his distribution is no better or worse than any other keeper at this level. The claiming crosses thing is fair though, he is very hesitant. However why the fuck are the defenders not attacking the ball?

Clarke just can't get his legs where his mind wants to be. Time to give him a coaching job, if he wants it. I don't hate him the way others do, but it's clear he can't manage a season where we're playing twice a week. Same with Donaldo, though in a side playing to his strengths he's done better it's clear T&S are only picking him as there's nobody else. Same with Clarke tbh.
Evans left hating us, and it's clear nothing has changed. He's here to take the piss out of us. McCall's worst signing, which is saying something.
I still maintain we're 2-3 players off a league winning side, providing we use the loan market properly for cover.
I still also think Doyle is better than ROD and Hornby, but that we can do better than all three of them, even at this level.

Loans should be of the calibre of Davies, O’Brien, Cullen and Burke. Burrell is a bizarre signing, wasting our time and importantly his time.

Our loans this year, apart from Cook and possibly Hosannah, have been a waste of time. And yes, the likes of Pickford, Cullen, Davies are exactly the sorts of players we should get in if they're available on loan. I just don't see the point of signing players permanently who aren't good enough, just for cover.
