Subs: Brough, Newby, Gordon for Warren......er, er......missed the rest

Team selection bizarre.
First 2 subs bizarre.
Last 3 subs way way too late.
What am I missing?

missing our playoff chances going from slim to none.....

If Gordon doesn’t score it’s hard to see were the goals are coming from.

Seventy six loyal bluebirds supporting right to the end and it’s been a cracking season the roller coaster ride is nearly over for another season and the fat lady has started warbling. Time to look forward not backwards on the field.

FT: 1 - 0

We put plenty of decent balls into the box.

Plenty of endeavour but we’ve got to be putting one of them away.

Nothing in it performance wise between both sides

Pete Wild got told to lose games so we don’t make the play offs don’t forget, done his job perfectly

We created enough chances to win tbh, their keepers had a good game. Long as we turn up on Saturday (for the first time against them!) when the full first team is restored can understand him rotating tonight

Brough and Gordon not risked after picking up knocks on Saturday.

Their keeper was mom for me. Created some decent chances need someone other than Gordon can score upfront next season

Brilliant performance by the Bluebirds tonight.Pete Wild has turned this club around.We were very unlucky tonight.Disallowed goal and Tyrel Warren shot hits the bar.This match could have gone either way.This match could have gone either way.Looking forward to next season.

Pete wild said after the game we have played all season with one goal scoring striker but that won’t be the case next season. He hinted that they were already well down the line regarding recruitment for next season. Very interesting interview

Thing is can we keep Gordon next season?

We've won 18 games, and lost 17. We've not been consistent enough all season to make the playoffs and it wasn't simply down to tonight in which we created enough to win the game anyway. There's been more moaning at this result than I saw at some points last season!

Some players clearly didn’t get the message then, nearly scoring and trying too hard….As the rest of your message said, we could have got something out of that, just missing a clinical finish. We certainly look at home in this league (i.e. not out of our depth, rather than being stuck here) and with the same progress next season, and more consistency, we should be in the mix for the playoffs. It would have been great this year, but we can’t be too disappointed with what is likely to be a very solid 9th place. Let’s see if we can get to 20 wins.
Our last 3 matches are all against teams with something to play for, so we can have a big influence on who is in our league next year. Beat Carlisle and Stevenage, with a 5-4 loss to Hartlepool, who stay up while Crawley go down…
