MATCHDAY THREAD - Gateshead vs ATFC - Sat 16th 3pm KO

[shots1965]

A very good point today well done shots, but wish people would get off of TW and his sons back if you have some thing to say then meet up with them after the game and air your views you might get answers to do why he does things team wise last season he was the best thing since sliced bread.

Well said

Can't believe the doom and gloom on here
Most on here saying we'd get stuffed today

Unf$$king believable

Well played shots

I enjoyed the game.

[Aldershot]

A good point gained but with Woking winning 1-0 against Boston United the Shots actually drop a position. Now just one point above the bottom four.

[TracoShot]

A much better second half and a very valuable point in our relegation fight.

Appreciate a few may live in the north but to travel that distance with the current form is a credit to each and every one.
Mind you that was me 35/40 years back!

[Shots2000]

Definitely a Good point. But we are getting closer to the bottom 4 and will need to get wins soon! Big game next week.

Absolutely no connection but it seems extremely ironic that you take exception to people having a go at TW when you constantly used to slag Southgate off

[Harlow Massive]

A very unexpected point

A very unexpected point

Not a terribly sensible post.

To many of us, the logistics of meeting up individually with the manager and players do not add up. Quite apart from anything else, emotions can run high after a game and neither side may be as rational as one might hope. Also, this line of advice (often advocated by Jim Royal) presupposes that manager and players are inclined to be open and honest in response to views expressed. What are your reasons for presupposing this? Ultimately, it's up to the manager to communicate with the supporters by the usual means, always understanding that some things need to remain private.

As for your last point, surely everyone understands that a manager gets praise when the team is playing well and getting results and criticism when not. WTF else do you expect?

[Ian Rust]

After the York City game (8 matches ago) we were 6pts above the first relegation spot (21st).
After todays game we have dropped to only 1pt (was 2pts last week) above the first relegation spot.
Points from safety wise its been a steady and continuing decline I'm afraid.
Stats not looking good.
