If we had a team with Jarvis, Dawson in, then yes this would show where we are. But with them injured, and maybe no Lapslie either, hopefully whatever the score, we put up a fight.

I a way, it's good we have to now play football and not hoof it long

Can't see us not conceding at least 1 goal (despite the green shoots of a defensive recovery at the weekend), but I also want to be optimistic.

so I'll go ahead and say Torquay 4-2 Yeovil

(why not? my wild stab in the dark came up the other week)

This is men v boys

Yeovil well organised and playing with a structure and purpose

We are hoofing to no-one

It's why GJ needs to go, we have no tactics, no identity and no idea

To be honest it looked like game over when Dolan came off immediately after the first goal.

Shocking doesn’t come close to describe this performance tonight.

The atmosphere is starting to get toxic again and the ‘Johnson out’ chants have started tonight.

Things will not improve until GJ is removed.

First game I’ve managed to make this season, due to my own playing commitments.

The first… 6 minutes maybe were great.. I thought some of comments being banded around were over the top but they’re really not at all. I feel sorry for a lot of our players, they’re better than this, but this is the first match I’ve seen in about 6 years where I haven’t been able to make out what formation we are actually playing. Individually I think we do have some very good players especially for this level, but oh my why are we making so hard for ourselves.

It’s hard to criticise any individual other than Johnson at this point. There isn’t really much else you need to say, we could have at least tried to have a game plan. Minus a great streak from mcgavin and some poor finishing were very lucky it wasn’t 6 or 7. We have to be better at than this

We’re going to struggle to avoid relegation the way we are going. Johnson must go.

Who knows what formation we played

CM at RB then CB
CM at RB
Winger playing CM
Striker playing LM

Brings in a new player - doesn't bring him on

No direction / tactics / effort

But we can't get anyone else as there is no-one else according to SG

How anyone - who actually watches the games - can defend tonight and this season is beyond deluded

Well beaten by a better team.
Might have been different if Ash and Marshall hadn't missed good chances, of if Halstead had been fit but I think Yeovil will win this league by a mile.
I'd settle for second and two home play off games for promotion. We really ought to achieve that when you look at the teams above us. We will if we play as we did against Bath but we have to stop losing to the likes of Weston & Hampton.
Obviously a change of manager is needed but that's not going to happen.
