Dartford away we played rubbish but got a draw with a late penalty,

Braintree away we played rubbish but won 1-0,

Yesterday played rubbish and lost 2-0,

3 games I have been to in the last couple of months,

Common denominator =  we played rubbish.

I do not blame the players just the system they are told to play.



Although I take your point certainly yesterday for the first half the players performance was well below what they are capable of. I know the system didn't help but too many of the side played like they hadn't even trained together. Too many were not at the races and this had nothing to do with the system ( I didn't agree with the set-up I will add).

Well hurst stated in the telewag on Friday I think it was, that they've had a good week in training this week.....then put a performance in like that yesterday.

Tbh I think a bit of complacency has crept in the last two games with the team

They should pick the best corner taker from the squad and stick with him, it seems that it something that is missing from our game this season

Having watched Town since 1962 at home and since 1967 away at almost every ground in the country I am obviously very unhinged and view things with Black and White tinted spectacles.However I do not feel this is the worst side we've ever had.A really difficult league to get out of but with an extra couple of players and hopefully few injuries I do feel this will still be our year to rejoin the league we should never have been allowed to leave.Won't always be pretty and there will be slips but keep the faith.

Slips are one thing, but habits, patterns, trends...are quite another. The non-performances at home happen too often to be thought of as inevitable blips in my opinion. Something's not right.
