At the moment that is of more concern than our league position. The league season is over imo. However, we do need all the support and money that we can get.

Exactly, and whilst I have never criticised the current board, I feel blind faith and a certain naivety on their part could bite us on the backside......Crowds go down and next years budget will suffer big time.........

I'm not suggesting anything Percy, I'm just thinking aloud in a very concerned manner!

No Gorman or Waters midweek so unless we have players recovering Dolan had a big night ahead.

Gorman got taken off for Dolan so that levels out.
If Sheehan is still unfit get the youngster back, at least that is his position.
Don't think Waters is a big loss.
Is Khan cup tied also?
The bench will literally be in Flynnys words "kids"

But is Dolan match fit? If so surely he would have started ahead of Abrahams in midfield.
Khan is trophy tied.
Waters was our best forward today which isn't saying a lot.
Flynn didn't use the word kids to describe players

Sorry Amber but he did say exactly that.

Think its correct Dolan was not 100% fit as for sure he would of started.
Maybe Flynny can get a few in by Wednesday.
If anybody interested and not under contract.

Evening.
Can you work out how many actual minutes it is since we scored, including all the injury time as well.
If you cannot no worry.
I will try and work it out if you cannot.

Thanks

Frank

Sorry Frank, that's not the sort of info I keep - I would think someone like Papajohn or Reebok0165 would be more able to tell you that than me.

We were clueless today - Abrahams was dreadful but we had no plan or shape. When Collins came on we had two wide men but just kept punting it forward.
You can see why Orient and Northampton have let us have Gorman and Waters.
Need to freshen up tactics and team Hard at the moment but when able I would give both Labs and Demetriou a rest both poor again today in terms of distribution.
Green and Collins looked quick but both a little light weight unless played into space and we just don’t have the players to create any chance for them to shine.

It was in one of the Argus reports.
Sorry mate but I cannot be bothered to trawl through dozens to find it, maybe have a look later though.

Not a problem.
I can possibly work it out by going backwards through each game.
If TV is crap tonight may have a go.
All the best.

All the way to Mansfield to watch that crap......I must be F ECKING MAD

Anyone who tries to have a go at me for being negative about that display is going to get it as I am totally frustrated about yet another abject performance from Michael Flynn's team

got a three hour drive to look forward to now as well

Difficult for Collins to dribble the ball as pitch was a bog on his left side. Green disappointed me again sad to say. Can’t just blame forward line as again today no clear cut chances were created for them to put away. Willmott doing ok as a stop gap right back. Keep him there for rest of season. Hopefully Nurse and Haynes will be fit shortly as Dem better at CB. Labs and Gorman did ok today, midfield was a battle on a heavy pitch. On today’s and recent performances I would rather have Collins in the team over Green and Abrahams.

Games last 90 minutes. You can't really count stoppage time as it is impossible to score when the game is stopped.

6 hours 56 minutes.

1 - 0 or 10 - 0 its still a defeat

He never said it Frank.
What he said was that one of his substitutes was a first year professional and another was an academy player.
