WTF if they want to throw bottles and flares, chuck them out and ban them for life. Have them report to a police station on Saturday afternoons at 3 pm as well

The club should advise for Brighton which blocks (preferably to the side) should be picked for fans that want to avoid the bottles and flares. The rest can then be a free for all the morons.
It's pretty nails giving it the biggun at Milton Keynes or some village in the Cotswolds. Then it's best running shoes on anywhere else
That Oggy's a bit of a card isn't he.Was anybody stood by the guy who was calling the players by name and trying to coach them?
"Oi Willis, tell them all to up their game"
"Oi Stokes, tell them to sort their fucking heads out"
Most of the way through.
That makes me cringe "xxxx's a shit hole, I wanna go home". Well go then you divI was walking up the hill on Saturday and I could hear some of the less fortunate saying what a shit hole the local area was.....
Enough said.
I don't know how managers analyse the game from that close to the pitch, I'm used to being much further up and didn't have a clue what was happening half the time.
You do adjust to the dugout perspective but I'm amazed there haven't been more managers who prefer to watch from the stand with a motivator and a receiver of instructions in the dug out. It always makes me laugh when managers get sent to the stand, like it's some kind of great punishment.I don't know how managers analyse the game from that close to the pitch, I'm used to being much further up and didn't have a clue what was happening half the time.

FGR are decent team, they won’t get relegated, Dioge still looked a handful up front.
Their defence looked well organised today.
Hopefully they take a lot of points of our play off rivals.
In this league anyone can literally beat anyone.

Luton aside, whose results are fairly average, our playoff/autos rivals have fantastic records against the bottom 6. Anyone literally beating anyone is a pretty rare occurrence:FGR are decent team, they won’t get relegated, Dioge still looked a handful up front.

Well the context was our rivals losing against lowly teams - they have lost 8 games in 67 picking up 2.4 point per game on average with a 76.12% win rate. I would consider that ratio a pretty low occurrence! 12% losses is 6 (5.52) defeats in a 46 game season. Hardly the lottery it was being made out to be!Hows it a rare occurance?

Luton and Coventry have lost a third and more than a third of their games vs bottom 6 that they have played.
Luton lost 33% vs botom 6
Coventry lose 44% vs bottom 6
Exeter lose 20% vs bottom 6
The other teams granted have lost and drawn the odd game.
Interesting, do you have the stats vs bottom 8, as generally teams like Port vale, morecambe, Yeovil, Crawley, Cheltenham etc Have all been in and out of bottom 6 and or bottom 8,
So it depends when you play Yeovil, morecambe, port vale etc.
Only Chesterfield and FGR who been in bottom 6 all season.
For example when we lost to Morecambe they were in bottom 6 but wernt in bottom 6 after the defeat.

I've only got the stats vs the current positions in the table where Crawley have recovered to 12th, sorry! Otherwise 1st game of the season is irrelevant amd the next few have limited value as the table settles down and the top 8 have also changed over time e.g. Colchester. Has to be a static point in time top 8 vs bottom 8.Ok statto.
Your figures stats are incorrect!? Mansfield they lost to a bottom 8 team Crawley 2-0 in December 9th????
How do your stats show they are unbeaten?
Yes I understand first few not being considered. But a game on December 9th (Mansfields) only defeat in their last 15/16 games happened to come against a team in the bottom 6!I've only got the stats vs the current positions in the table where Crawley have recovered to 12th, sorry!

Oh it must be because Mansfield were 9th then ! when they lost to 6th from bottom Crawley on /December 9th.
Your stats are for only when teams in top 8 play those in bottom 8 I imagine.
So sorry just because Crawley recovered from 6th bottom to 12th now that means those stats don't count????
In that case if FGR recover out of bottom 6/8 (theres a very good chance of that) the two defeats from us will be scrubbed off?
I hate it when they sing that, at Accrington, the locals were so friendly, nice little ground, they played far better than us, their support was excellent, and we have to sing that. Same at Grimsby. It’s not as if Cov is the most aesthetically pleasing place - which doesn’t stop us being proud of the place, of course.That makes me cringe "xxxx's a shit hole, I wanna go home". Well go then you div
completely agree.This top bottom analysis is bollocks....it is points that matter. It doesn't matter whether you are fourth or eight at this stage of the season (or who you have got your points against) if you are 4 or 6 points off second...you are still in with a shout. Oh we haven't put a run together...good I want our run in the last 12 to 10 games!
Got to disagree with you there. Its like saying the home form vs away form is bollocks as only the last 10-12 games matter.This top bottom analysis is bollocks....it is points that matter.

What it shows is 2 trends, that identify that tactically and performance wise that we're struggling to find a formula to break struggling teams down and that that we're struggling to find a way of winning away from home. That will be tactical, selection, etc issues that need to be addressed and potentially the difference between finishing 8th or finishing 2nd. How can you go on a great run at the end of the season if you don't identify and rectify your deficiencies? Even robins has said that both our performances and results against bottom sides and away from home is a concern.

If we don't rectify them, or stumble on the winning formula, we will struggle to put a storming 10-12 game run in.
