Anyone know why Hearn isn't playing?

And can we get a burger van update

Is Liam injured? it seems very strange he does not even make the bench.

Agree chris. Very strange.

Fall out?

maybe it's because we have a bench already packed with strikers

I'm flipping sick of this nonsense about Hearn. If he's fit he needs to play, if he's not, we need to know. Anything else smacks of typical marginalisation from the manager(s).

Agree rob, but leaving out Hearn?

If he goes, do the trust/Mike Parker get their money back

How about this?......we had probably the best attacking 45 mins of football of the season on Saturday...at half time Hearn distanced himself from the other bench warmers and "warmed up" by himself watching the kids mini match. Why did he do that? Does that show team spirit, willingness to fit in? Or did it look like a player having a sulk? Because it did to me.

He probably feels he should be playing moosey, don't forget from hearns point of view he's been out for a while so not playing must be effecting him obviously.  Who would be a manager lol

If I was the best player in the side and LJL was keeping me out f the team i'd be flipping sulking! It's a joke.

flipping joke

Somethings not quite right at the moment once you lose the dressing room it's game over.

I wonder what the players think not having your best striker in the squad.

Wakey wakey town

Is he? Says who? He has not played for a season.
To build a good team spirit and work ethic you have to earn your place, LJL was top scorer in pre season, has taken to the preferred system probably better than any other player and Hearn has not exactly shone in his outings so far.
Would love him to be the player he was but i dont think he is. As much as we all like to think we know better than evryone else we dont see them on a daily basis, dont know Hearns condition and most of all dont know why he isnt in the squad. Maybe he pulled up in training this morning, late fitness test failure etc.

And the same applies to Cook and Hannah. it's idiocy to have such players at your disposal and not use them out of pig-headedness.

Hearn has scored twice the goals LJL has scored this season in a quarter of the game time. Do we want to get promoted, or do we want to massage the ego of our manager(s)?

Have we touched the ball yet?

Neither you or i are the managers which is the point. They (he currently) are so he will have his reasons and no doubt Matt Dean will be frothing at the mouth to ask after the game so we can have some answer.

What happens if the Scott issue is actually a Hearn issue? Will the whole GTFC fanbase turn on Hearn?

**Purely hypothetical**

The usual picture then - being outplayed by a decent side.

Ffs

To easy!

This system is excrement.

flipping rubbish town!!!

True, but I refer you to my earlier post about coming clean about what i going on. LJL is a grafter no doubt, but there is form about having favourites with this management team and I'm sick of it.

And what are we gonna do now we are chasing the game? The formation or personnel is not right at the moment and everyone can see this but the Manager(s)

Quoted from Marinerz93

This system is excrement.

The system they are also playing do you mean?  

The problem with playing on up top makes it easy for them defenders to mark 1 striker besides its a counter attack formation.   They know that a 433 offers little width.

Cant see us winning this.

Agree that i dont think the personnel are right, the system with the right personnel can work but it is early days yet. Neilson would always be a pivotal player in this system but unfortunately it was his fatter twin brother who arrived for the first day of training.
Do think it should be an outright attacking 3 leaving 7 behind the ball to do the defending.

Sort this nonsense out you idiot.

2-0

Paul Bolland points out how Halifax simply put some extra width into their formation and our system is undone. What was the point of this formation again?  
I'd settle for being outplayed and thumped tonight if it means the management see it's not the way out of this division.


4-4-f*****g 2 !!

2-0 It's time for 442

Where's FFS when you need him?  

This is absolutely flipping disgraceful, excrement in every sense

Where is ffs?  2-0

Touché Les  

Get rid of this numpty and all this circus that's going on at the moment!

I'm at Lincoln tonight -through work - and it pains me to say it but they look good this season!

I can see us getting a hammering!  

I will do the honours.

FFS

Jesus H flipping Christ.

I give up!

Hopefully aa cars have been called for the morning!

Why isnt Hearn on the bench FFS !!  

3-0

Unbelievable, Adam Smith was an awful player for Lincoln last season, laughably bad. He's running riot tonight

Pack yer bags Paul, join Rob on the way.

What on gods earth are we doing, we sound like a team of amateurs, truly embarrasing for our once great club

We came from behind 23 years ago  

Hannah on !! What next, 4-4-2 ?

Yay 442

What an utter disgrace. Players and Manager.

Halifax are illustrating the point everyone is making - playing 4-4-2 with pace, width and confidence and making home advantage count. We're d1cking about with a feeble system, second to every ball and absolutely no threat at all.

GOOD! A damn good hiding is exactly what we want and then we can stop playing excrement formations that we don't know how to play and get back to good old 4-4-2 when we can have 2 good strikers on.

This hammering may be a blessing in disguise imo.

Playing 4-4-2

Hearn bust be pi55ing himself

If Hurst couldn't see this coming from the 2nd half performance against Braintree then he needs to consider his future job prospects. We haven't played well in any game this season except possibly Alfreton.

Quoted from RoboCod

Playing 4-4-2

We're 4-4-2 now. What's the betting we play really well from now on, and it will be 4-4-2 again on Sat.

Yet again an admission the 433 doesn't work. Just hold your hands up and admit you were wrong Hurst. If you won't, urine off now.

Has to be a change of management, prformances do not lie and this result has been coming, why oh why did we release Miller worst managerial decision for years. Why have six strikers and play one, bloody unbelievable

Quoted from Theimperialcoroner

No, just do the latter anyway!

Half time report from a friend at the game..... Its Dog Sh1t mate !!

It will finish either 5-0 or 3-2

Its too easy, we have no threat up front and our defence is crap, if they get another three I see trouble ahead

Quoted from RoboCod

Playing 4-4-2

Nope still 4-3-3 with hannah in nielsons role and jones in thanoj role  
FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS FFS

Given the circumstances, keeping the score down to just 3 given our system and the players we had out, maybe this has been quite an accomplished first half - they could have been out of sight

Dismal, Poor, Stretched.... just some of the words mentioned by the commentary on Humberside.

FFS "I wasn't there but spoke to someone who is".  How could anyone judge a game on that ?  

Whatever system we play doesn't matter if those players are not doing their jobs. Second to everything and on the rare occasions we do get the ball, we give it away again.

Time to go Mr Hurst. We are getting outplayed regularly now. Outplayed for 90 mins by Nuneaton, 45 mins by Braintree and same again this half and that's only the last three games.

Is 442 or still that 433?

Certainly going to give Fenty food for thought tonight. As he seems likely to be considering giving Scott his cards I wonder if he's toying with the option of moving both of them on. There's no evidence one can continue their previous success without the other, maybe a clean sweep could bring some more positives, namely a change back to 4-4-2 and *possibly* a more settled dressing room (if there's anything to Hearns recent body language and Hannah/Cooks frustration)

Good! Hurst and Scott will not survive this. We've been excrement for almost a year now. Enough is enough

Quoted from bobbyturtle

Is 442 or still that 433?

433

4-0

Just gets worse.

4-0

Hurst and Scott have to go, we are just not good enough for the money spent on wages, shredded, utter joke.

I bet the half time rocket the players must have had fell on deaf ears....4-0 to them now

Summarised aptly by Bolland....sloppy!  

This will eclipse braintree

Quoted from Sigone

433

Thanks

Change needed for sure. The games we have won we haven't played well. Last season was the pinnacle of their time with us!

You cannot afford to leave Hearn/Hannah out of the team

Are Halifax part time??

Scott and Hurst out.

Quoted from Hagrid

This will eclipse braintree

That was the day that I had my last op and I thought I was still under the anesthetic when I heard the result, this though is frighteningly real.  

Quoted from cmackenzie4

Are Halifax part time??

ya so lee nogan says.  Maybe they will tire in the last 10 mins  

Quoted from Sigone

Just a bad day at the office which sometimes happens lol

Sign up the post. Having a good game for town

Could Buckley be any worse?

To be fair Halifax started really well and that has pretty much set the tone.  Why cant we start games like that., I honestly think they have lost the dressing room and its not just because its one defeat its the body language and whats going on at the club plus no hearn etc.

Quoted from Garth

Disasterous time to have one, if this is all it is. Confidence will nose dive; turmoil off the pitch; fans calling for a change in management.  Crying shame.
