Win, lose or draw, it’s hoped the manager is asked about the specific choices he makes in personnel so we gain an understanding around selections like Armstrong coming in for the impressive so far Beckwith. |  |

I suppose with games Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday and Monday there will inevitably be changes for each game, alongside possibly what may appear at the time confusing substitution, with the aim of managing minutes and hopefully avoiding fatigue injuries.
It appears that East, Gilmour and Henry will rotate with whoever is on the bench coming on. Why Beckwith is interesting though as I do not really see Armstrong as a like for like replacement, but hopefully he has a good game. [Post edited 20 Aug 19:50]

Poor defending, but keeper should have done a lot better |  | | |

I understand the principle of rotation but if you pay good money shouldn’t you expect to see in most cases the strongest possible lineup?
If you went to see an orchestra you wouldn’t be pleased to see a handful of the best musicians sitting in the audience with you whilst their understudies performed.
I hope to be proved wrong but Armstrong for Beckwith is not like for like. | | | |

But who’s opinion of the best players would prevail.
Campaigning for smaller squad sizes might be the way forward for some, but that horse has bolted. The idea of Bill Shankley playing his best 11 in a game against lowly cup opposition, for good or bad, is over. | | | |

Poor first 15 minutes but we have stepped it up since then. They have made some good blocks and EEL has missed with a free header from 6 yards out |  | | |

We’re playing like the home side but they are happy to break in a direct fashion down our left channel in between EEL and Armstrong.
Rodney and Mitchell need to be much sharper. | |

McNicholas is causing a few heart flutters, but soooooooooo confident on the ball. Calm down. | | | |

Agree. We look very dodgy on the left hand side of our defence . also feel the keeper should be saving their tame effort from which they scored.
Although we have had plenty of chances to shoot, we do seem to be overplaying and not having enough efforts on goal. Mitchell especially needs better technique when trying to control the ball.
Hoping for an improvement in the second half. With a few tactical tweaks from Jim, we can win this game. Hope he sees it as we do. | | | |

Shocking miss by McBride from 2 yards out immediately after the restart. | | | |

Looked easier to score. But at least its a good chance. Rodney and Mitchell very quiet so far.
York should have scored...again we are wide open down the left side. Combination of keeper and post saving us. | | | |

Frustrating. We have to become more ruthless. We should’ve got 3 points on Saturday and 1 point today. McBride isn’t offering enough and we have to get competition for Mitchell. Both really poor today. |  | | |

Beckwith looks a talent, wish we had him on from the start. Strong, assured and plays with a bit of intelligence. | | | |

Lost but it was an entertaining game. Like you say started to overplay it a bit instead of having a go. Overall an entertaining game from both sides. We should have at least scored, but they could have got another in the second half too.
Million miles away from the poor displays of last year, but it is still only 4 points from 9 and only 1 goal in the last 2 games with lots of attacking play. If we can be a bit sharper up front it could be a good season for us | | | |

Not up for it tonight. York were a yard quicker and wanted it more than us. I want to be proved wrong but on that display we ain’t play off contenders. Rodney conspicuous by his absence and Mitchell always looks lost by himself. Two wingers couldn’t get into the game either. Trying to find positives but struggling after that performance. Onwards and hopefully upwards but things will have to improve and quick. | | | |

Anyone see what happened in the tunnel after the game? Looked like there was a bit of trouble on NLTV | | | |

That selection and the use of subs is something only McNulty can explain.
Rodney and Mitchell staying on for 90 minutes was hard to fathom and Allarakhia was justifiably disappointed as he walked round the pitch.
We’ve looked good so far but tonight, without being awful, we’ve created our own problems. | |

No complaints about the result. York were sharper and better organised as a team than we were.
Overall, I'm disappointed that McNulty doesn't seem to have learned from last seasons mistakes and is still scared of his team shooting when they have half a chance.
We can almost discount the opening day win against a Boston team who were nowhere near the standard of an average team at this level. Our last two games have been against more typical teams, and we've not shown much tactical flexibility. | | | |

Tactically we are flexible. The back three became a four at times tonight. The issue was selection as Beckwith could have played the LCB/LB role and he’s aready worked out where he can support attacks. He didn’t start and the subs didn’t replace the players who weren’t performing. Managerial decisions.
One thing York deserve credit for was ensuring our wide players didn’t get to the byeline as much as in previous games. Felix who played on both sides across the 90 minutes was excellent for them. | |

Got what we deserved which was nothing. York better in attack and defense, stronger and quicker than we were.
We came out fighting in the second half but it soon petered out when York had a decent chance.
From starting XI to substitutions it was a really poor game from McNulty.
Go again Saturday. | | | |
