Stayed up to watch FL show last night, turned it over.
Sky+ it and still don't want to watch it yet. Doors got slammed enough yesterday when it was on the radio so I don't want to go back to that dark place again. Not just yet.
Is anybody else in a similar situation?

[Chewy]

I watched em this morn. Their 4th tbf was a great header ... The other 3 aren't great. But saying that their defending for ours was equally as dire. Just watch it mate n get on with your day.

[Spire-Heights]

I was, but just watched them several times.

CFC goals.

1. Great assist from O'Shea, although their defender messed up and a good finish by Doyle from about the spot.

2. Good cut back by Darikwa and a cool finish from mcsheffery from 15 yards.

3. Great individual solo goal from Doyle, did very well and a cracking cool finish.

Morecombe goals

1. Bad defensive header from Evatt

2. God knows what went off with this goal, a town player goes flying.

3. Free kick in to box and a player slides in unmarked to slot home from 5 yards.

4. A cracking cross from the left and a good unmarked header left tommy with no chance.

Shocking defending, and how is their player especially on the winning goal aloud that much space. He had time to trap it and have a cuppa before slotting home. It looks like Sunday league defending, which is what were not used too. We've been solid at the back all season and the amount of clean sheets etc prior to yesterday prove this, I just hope this was a really bad day at the office. Well, a bad second half.

The winner was a tremendous header.

[BlueRover52]

That second half performance was bad enough live let alone watching "highlights".More like lowlights as far as Spireites were concerned.

Indeed. However, what would you say if you are the defending teams manager ?

I feel more positive from watching it. It shows that we have a good finisher in Doyle, mcsheffery etc and all the goals conceded were poor defending, and that won't be allowed to happen again.

Watch it guys, onwards and upwards. This time in May and all that.

[Mr Mercury]

I'm afraid I'm also one of the saddos who won't watch it if we've lost, both last Saturdays and this weeks FL shows were banished from the Sky + without ever seeing the light of day

Yep just watched it and funnily enough I feel a lot better . It was just one of those games you get occasionally IMO .their first goal was very fortunate . Just hit ellisons leg , didn't seem to know too much about it, and seemed to foul our defender for second . Sure we, ll bounce back , too much quality not to.

I'm someone who, when we've won, likes to watch the entire football league show anticipating our appearance near the end! However, when we've lost I don't want to watch any of it
I was in a quandry about yesterday's 'highlights' as, after listening to the Peak commentator wax lyrical about Doyle's second, I really wanted to see it.....a colleague at work saved me the decision though by having the goals on whilst he was watching Sky. Doyle's goal was good (though not quite the Messi-esque effort described by Peak) and their goals (bar the third) were terrible ones to concede!! No-one seemed to try and stop the balls coming into the box, and when they did we were at sixes and sevens. Although, like some others on here, I though there was a massive push for their second goal!

[metallilad]

Watched it now. Angry, confused as to how we capitulated like we did.
I wonder if it was because it's the first time we have seriously been under the cosh & because it happened so quickly after halftime aswell everybody (players & staff) were caught like rabbits in the headlights, that's when the panic button was hit..................
We don't react well to the panic button.
We put extra defenders on trying to cling onto what we had which isn't our way of playing, it only added to our downfall.
If (and it is a big IF) it happens again we'll be more prepared for the situation & we'll see the game out.
Times like these make you realise that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger & we'll be stronger.
God help the rest of league 2 now!

I said to the old man at half time, that I couldn't wait to see Doyle's solo effort later on that night...

I didn't .

It looks to me plain and simply a mistake by Evatt, who looked in 2 minds about whether to head back to Tommy or head out for a corner, and in the event did neither.

The last bit's funny, with Ellison running down the line to try to smack Lynchy.

What was that all about? Must be some history between those two

You wouldn't want that ugly get running at you but Cook got in the way

[trickytrevsfanclub]

Surely people want to see Towns goals? Watch them then don't watch the rest.

[Spireite-Karl]

After the initial frustration of a defeat I always like to see the highlights, no matter the result as you learn so much more about your players and their togetherness, individual character etc, when you lose. I'm pretty sure Paul Cook will feel the same once he gets over the obvious pain of what happened as it's hard to learn anything if you can't back up or change your initial thoughts.
When you watch them back you can take so much from them, something you can't do when your winning, you just have to try and replicate what you've been doing and try to fine tune more than anything.
