@GMB The biggest problems are caused by our GP's who many now by pass and attend A &E.Too many GP's lack commitment and are driven purely by financial reward. Can anyone really say that the service now offered by our GP's is better than it was 50 years ago?

@_manishbhasin If you continue to play kamikaze football,gifting the opposition 5 or 6 clear cut chances every game we will struggle for 50 points in a league where there are no outstanding teams.There remain players in the side lacking in the skills to suit the Martin style of football.

@JasonBourne1986 The board appoint a manager they knew that the fans did not want. No basis for his appointment on past record. The same can be said of about the last 3 or 4 managers. They seek trouble rather than answers. We shall see the end of them shortly- possibly after Administration.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@JasonBourne1986 @joncrabbe @PELCFCRRO According to Russell Martin the performance today was " brilliant". We were playing a workmanlike but talentless team who had few players with any pace. If a brilliant performance can only produce a point against such a poor team it is going to be a long,long season.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@joshhollandLCFC Couldn't score against a workmanlike but totally talentless side. Two points from nine. Flying start.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@cuzcuzverde Let's hope the team plays better than it looks on paper!

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@joshhollandLCFC Unless Martin faces some reality he will be out of a job before Christmas. We deserved to lose against Ipswich Reserves. The team has no attacking force and at time the defence is shambolic as is the goalkeeping. More to football than celebrating 40 passes to get to halfway line.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@joshhollandLCFC Tippy tappy football was sufficient against their reserves. When they upped the game it was exposed. No attacking threat,no bite in midfield and further dire defending. With defending like this we will lose more than we win - even in the first division.

@henrywinter The best player on the pitch yesterday was Webster- by some distance. Energy,enthusiasm and endeavour and only 22 years of age. Decent young players are around in the EFL but those running out club seem unable to find them and go for easy options at the other end of their career

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@henrywinter The majority of fans did not want Martin. Those running the club knew that . Any honeymoon was always going to be short. It lasted less than 30 minutes into the first home match. Not only has the honeymoon finished, the marriage is already under stress!

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@JasonBourne1986 Perhaps someone could explain to me why the manager when 2- 0 down with 10 players elected to replace an attacking midfielder by a defensive midfielder with the touch of an elephant whose first instinct is to pass the ball backwards. Utter crass.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@JasonBourne1986 We undeservedly secured a point against a team that I expect will finish closer to the bottom of the league than the top. Sadly some degree of arrogance remains within the club and the manager lauds the performance of the two centre backs who were as bad as the keeper. Dreadful.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@_manishbhasin It looks as if it might be a long and rather boring season on the basis of this performance. Let's hope matters improve!

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@montie @BenWallace70 How long does it take for the penny to drop? The Party that you now support rely entirely on the politics of division. It is the last thing that this country needs and eventually you will have a rump of support forever looking at yesteryear and looking for scapegoats to hate.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@DPJHodges Poll numbers rising? 13% of public consider she would be the most capable PM. On that basis about a third of those who would vote Tory say she would not make the most capable PM. Some surge.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@PeterABedford The use of the phrase "land grab " suggests a change of ownership. The phrase is a nonsense and you and your fellow protestors should stop using it. Pure hyperbole.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@DPJHodges What you fail to mention in your commentary is the dreadful result for the Tories - 5th place behind Restore. The Tories have become an irrelevance in our major cities and much of the rest of the country despite all this talk of the " Kemi bounce".

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@PippaCrerar Farage wants to frame the by election as him against the Establishment. The rest of us should frame it as sleaze v decency with all political parties standing behind an anti sleaze candidate. Carol Vorderman ?

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@Haggis_UK He lives with amnesia in a world of fantasy.

[Jeff Smith @jeffsmith78162]

@fdkin1 @henrywinter We hit the bar late in the second half. The commentator referred to us hitting the bar in the first half despite the ball being nowhere near the goal.
