Half-time and it's 0-0. We've had 3 shots, none of which was accurate, and 3 corners. We've also allegedly had more of the possession, but much good it's done us..... time for Plan "B" in the second half Dean?

Not really surprised, this should be his best attacking formation, obviously aint working, lets hope for a slightly better performance in the second half....like a couple of shots on target would be good for a start! :(

Good point - I was surprised to see that he wasn't even on the bench. Perhaps his fitness isn't quite up to the mark?

We've just had our first shot on target........from Andy Taylor !!!!! :?

Second half has picked up. Their enormous German goalie just saved a lovely right footer from Taylor.

Things are looking up.
A set piece generated a chance.

He must have had a quiet game. When the substitution was put on the BBC website that was the first time his name had been mentioned in the whole match. Usually he's much more involved. Sawyers hasn't been mentioned once either. :?

Sheffield United 0 Bury 1 (That man Pope again)

Port Vale 2 Wigan Athletic 0 Edit... 2 minutes later and it's 2-1

But even in this struggle, as things stand, it'll just take one chance, one goal and we'll be top.

Right it's time for the power of suggestion.
What would Sir Ray Graydon do?

Play poorly, take the one chance, win 1-0, go top.
Do it!

Wasn't the centenary game against Doncaster in 1988?
Struggling exactly like this, won 2-0 with two very late goals.

We now have the third delay in the match because of a Doncaster injury......is this part of their game plan??

Gillingham 2 Blackpool 1 (but Gills have scored all 3.....)

3 matches without a win, 3 matches without a goal....after such a bright start this is looking like a capitulation

Why are they not having the ambition and drive to remain dominant and threatening? Isn't top of the table enough motivation?

We should all have gone to Oldham.....35 shots on goal between them, 17 of which were from Oldham, and they are losing 1-5!

This 'tight' little pitch of ours is a killer for entertainment.
