We don't normally play that way,did we get dragged into their way of playing?,wasn't surprised with a draw,but must of shown a bit of character to get a point

We did it from the off, no good blaming York, To be honest when we got the freekick,i said to wynonie hope Joss takes it. Why 2 subs wi 3 mins to go and 2-1 down? Thats not good management by any stretch.

Sorry, Football19, but we didn't show much at all, today, especially quality. Windass got us out of gaol and York must be feeling sore that they didn't go home with all 3 points, bad as they were. We were so wasteful of numerous attacking positions and just seemed to pick the wrong options with the final balls into the box. Over hit, under hit, too hurried and no composure. Our two late subs were ridiculous. Ok, I undertand where Coley is coming from when he says the selected 11 should be able to last the full 90 minutes when we are looking good, but not to change things when our play is so dire is beyond belief.We have now conceded more goals than any other team in this division, but Coley said not long ago that our defence is the best he has ever worked with!!! Funny old game.

One point saved is better than nowt but, according to the Beeb website Stanley had 9 shots to York's 19, and only 3/6 on target!
Are those figures an accurate reflection?

Don't know, but I can't remember their goalie making any saves.

Wasn't counting mate, but sounds about right, we were dire.

A bit unfair really, He was on a loser from the minute he stepped on the pitch.

Chris,bad example Grey,was brought on with Northampton winning (presumably to hold the ball up)and got beat,whilst windass got us a point !!

A bit unfair really he never had a chance from the minute he stepped on the pitch. I think he simply fell foul of the Coleman way.

Your always fair in your assessment redraine and I must admit I've never been a fan of three at the back and wing backs.
For me it creates problems when you come up against three forwards (4-3-3) as your wing backs get pinned back.
It's also an easy outlet for the opposition to play into the corners.
Young windlass is not an out and out forward so it ends up 3-6-1 !!,or 5-4-1 .
Give me 4-3-3 any day,but we would struggle getting all our best players on the pitch so it's a tricky one

Good point, however the attendance figure suggests the crowd have been priced out.

Disagree, to me the attendance figure suggests we aint winning. A winning side anywhere n crowds come.

Pretty much yeah - very disappointed with our performance but at the end of the day relieved to take a point from the game, it's never pretty against York & good result seeing as though they're fighting for their lives, how much difference 12 months can make, who's have thought they were in play offs last season

I think it is more accurate to say they have taken the club as far as it can be taken, without another even more loaded fairy godmother - remembering we've had two of those already, one to get us where we are today in the first place, and one to fend the taxman off when the first overreached himself.

Mid-table in League 2 feels pretty good given my lifetime (64 year) timescale.
