Quoted from mariner91
I was going to go to Barnet away in a few weeks as its near me. But at £23 a ticket and the fact we're garbage, I'd rather watch Netflix all afternoon.


I've got Netflix, it's rubbish.
Drab and boring, same old thing week in week out......

This was only the 4th game I have managed to see this year but.....


We are just not very good at football really. We try to play balls into the channels but all our players are still behind the halfway line wondering what the hell the ball is doing in their half. Our defence is great as long as the opposition attack plan on using the ball in front of us and don't plan on any of that sneeky 'move the ball quickly' kind of stuff.

We will stay up because of the fecklessness of teams worse than us. That is it for us in my view and as a spectacle it is bloody awful.

I actually went to the game. Having been pretty dismissive of the naysayers I actually felt disgusted today. No passion, and a complete disregard for the fans.

That said, Jones and Dembele can play. DJ should start.

Berett was less than average, Dixon was much worse. I grew up with Croft and Galli and we need a new left back urgently.

I could rattle on about how bad we were but let's focus on staying up and challenging next season.

Just seen both Exeter goals..

Goal One

Dixon ball watching but how the hell was our defensive line as deep as the six yard box?

Goal Two

Collins could have done a lot better than he did. Didn't close down the forward down enough, scared of a one v one foot race, then backed off too far to give him time to pick his shot.

Been through it myself as an ageing centre half who was slowing up. I felt more comfortable defending deeper so I didn't get done for pace. Either Slade has set us up to defend deep because he signed two slow centre halves or Clarke and Collins are naturally dropping deeper due to a lack of confidence in their own pace. Either way it compromises the team performance as a whole and changes need to be made..

Still too angry with today's performance/ this week's events to post my thoughts and observations, maybe in the morning...

Hi Penrith spent many a happy hour at Station Hotel and Midland Hotel in Lazonby.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

Meh. Our budget is probably mid table, and we’re currently a mid table team. I don’t see why so many people are enraged about our current plight, it’s not surprising. ...so many were moaning that we had a ‘bargain basement’ pre season. Well, there you go.

If Slade deserves to go, then so does Evans for spending all that money and only being two more points above us.

I dunno.....guess all there is to say is that I hope we manage to get a few more better players in Jan. And I hope the players we’ve missed through injury come back good for us.

I'll give it till Boxing day. Will see all games up to then. Already booked train tickets and hotel for Barnet. (Birthday weekend!)
Hopefully, the players and staff will have realised that this is already a relegation dogfight and that the fans will not accept 'no shows'. I urge everyone to go as often as their pockets allow, cheer the team but protest firmly to the media, the club and the trust if RS persists with current tactics and selections.
