From memory, weren't the latrines at York at ground level? I may be wrong as I generally try to avoid the bogs at football stadiums because they are minging. The old Plough Lane was an experience, relying on the crack of light between the top of the wall and the roof for any light. Basically, you were pissing in the dark.

Bought one if their £4 programmes and it had 40 odd pages with nothing particularly interesting to read. Very overpriced but at least they still bother. I don't know why clubs don't produce something for a couple of quid, the costs of which are covered by advertising. Only collectors (who are diminishing as they, sadly, are from a bygone age) are interested.

To my untrained eye, Browne does unsettle the team. He appears selfish, trying to score himself rather than pass to someone else with a better chance of scoring. He'd be better as an impact sub.

That's almost like having a piss In the open air York City toilets at Bootham Crescent while it's raining. 😂

You do get the feeling that JJ plays Browne just because he is a good player, but it should all be about the team.

Since letting a late equaliser in away to Colchester last month, we have repeated the trick twice against Barrow and Walsall, as well as losing to Bromley, Cheltenham and Morecambe. We struggled to hold on against a very poor Carlisle side. Only against Notts County have we played half decent in all those games. We dropped 2 points today but aside from our goal we never really threatened and on the balance of play Walsall deserved at least a draw, even if they are not that good. The one thing they have in their favour is points in the bag. We don’t have enough forward threat. Browne has been a big disappointment and seems to be getting worse. Stevens is anonymous. It is either automatic promotion or nothing as we will not succeed in the play offs.

That Browne/Marsh scenario sounds very similar. Let's hope we do better than City did back then. It just shows how one player can upset the balance of a team.

Bad egg: I won't even bother coming over for the play offs. We have no bottle.

We have been poor since we got Marcus Browne.

Can I ask why we don't put a defender on the post a free kicks like that?

If we get in the play offs there is no way will we get promoted, I just think we’ve got to get in the automatic places 😩

We have been poor for weeks now, and are only still in with a shout because everyone else up the top end of the table have hit simikar poor form in recent weeks. So it would seem that the top 9 must all be feeling thankful that everyone else is in shit form. It certainly makes for an interesting finish and whoever hits form now will likely win the league. On Tuesday, Doncaster at home to Walsall and Port Vale v Bradford. Two draws and a win for us will put us in a strong position. Also, if Gillingham beat Colchester and Grimsby beat Crewe, that will almost certainly get us a play off place with 6 games left (we would be 10 points clear of 8th). And an extra point counting our goal difference.

The reason why we lose leads is that we have a squad full of honest L2 players playing honest L2 football. That means we will lose leads like we have done the last couple of weeks. There is also nothing the management or the players can do to prevent it. It comes from ability rather than mentality or anything fixable on the training ground. What we have done better this season is to set up in a way where it is less likely to happen but that still will not prevent it from happening at all. There is nothing than can be done to prevent it and is part of supporting a L2 club with L2 players.

Wish we wouldn't panic so much towards the end. Very frustrating again

What we don’t want is to have to go to Doncaster or Grimsby on a Thursday night

Latest final predicted table based on form has Donny in 5th and us 6th

Anyway, we want Notts Co in the final - a) because we can beat them and b) they'll take 30,000 to Wombley

So was your 17:51 post a desperate search for some like-minded friends OI?

Here we go again, 'running out of steam, running on fumes'. Ffs, two games in 2 weeks and they're clapped out? They are professional footballers, who are paid to be, apart from their skills, fit. Either they are, or they ain't. Please don't make excuses for them.

Well I'm a heretic, I want Notts County to lose on Wednesday.

Ric - we do look like we are running on fumes at times, but fortunately, so are some of the others around us it seems… 😬

A lot of positive thinking on here f how everyone has to play each other and we still have 7 games to go etc. but the reality is we have completely run out of steam and throwing 4 points a way in a week will lead us to struggle to even get in the play offs. The midfield now offers nothing at all and Brown just flatters to deceive. Thank God for the defence.

We met some lovely Walsall fans before the game but sadly met some dreadful ones after it, I can’t imagine what they would’ve been like if they lost 🤷

Those teams can't all win their remaining games. There will be dropped points aplenty.

Sav - oddly, I was really gloomy after the Barrow game, but seeing all of the others around us playing each other leaves room for some optimism I think 🤞😬
