I get what you mean Moosey but a couple of weeks ago today would have been a 4 - 1, maybe bigger but the players had enough possession and a couple of decent opportunities to level the game.
For once everyone put a shift in which suggests MJ can get players engaged, personally for me it’s all coming 4 weeks too late.
from reports of those that went today it could easily have been 4 or bigger as well...Akinfenwa fluffing his lines on a couple of occassions and hitting the woodwork......i have seen us change slightly but we still cant take a chance and we still dont create anything like enough chances to give our 1 goal in every 8/9/10 chance players... are we saying 3 good chances today maybe ? 3 last week against Stevenage as well ....yet 1 goal to show...and thats following an improvement...but whatever Jolley is doing with the set piece defending isnt working ....if you play our recent goals against from Lincoln, Coventry, today there are some very similar goals.

I went today and yeah maybe we could have conceded more but we didn’t plus if you go away to 3rd in the league when you’re second from bottom there is always a chance that you’ll concede a few. We created more chances today than in recent away games and arguably more than a lot of the “better” sides have done who have come to BP this season. We lack the quality to convert them but that’s Slade’s fault for signing Donkeys. Yeah get what you mean about set pieces but that has been an issue with Town since Hurst was the manager and I think to expect MJ to change it in a few weeks might be too much to ask.

Marinerz93, as you say anyone who goes is free to do what they want. However, imho you’d be hard pressed to pass yourself off as a supporter if one of the times the club truly needs your support you go with the intention of abusing either the players or the board at the first opportunity.
Save it for another time.
But if you do go, don't get at the players let Fenty and his yes men in the boardroom know how you feel and what you think about them. Fenty and his yes men need to go, for all the mess he has caused you'd be hard pressed to pass yourself off as a fan being 3rd from bottom and accepting the state he has put the club in. I'm not talking about chanting or demonstrations, I'm talking about telling him he needs to go. Fenty out and the yes men out!

I will be there until seasons end but this has been the worst season on and off the field in my 50 odd years of supporting GTFC.
I really do not think we will come back up again in my lifetime if we go down again, I already gave up on seeing us in a new stadium years ago.

Realistically, Chesterfield and Barnet will both be feeling they absolutely have to beat us to stand a chance of staying up as well. Hoping that Chesterfield’s fixture pile up might just do for them. Having said that, we’ve not won for 20 games it looks a tall order to win to win 2 on the bounce and possibly one more at Forest Green. I’ve not given up hope but I’m not far off.

If we don’t win Saturday against our relegation rivals (at home) then we deserve to go down, this is a massive game for both teams.

Yes.....but if we get the first one the second will come a lot more easily imho. Think our season probably boils down to "Can we win next Saturday?"

There are signs of improvement, and a narrow defeat away to the third place team is no disgrace.
But its some of the other games that we failed to win that have put us where we are.
We have all known for ages that it will come down to the next two games. We have to win them both. If we don't it's really game over.

We're showing week on week improvement yet all anyone looks at is the results. It will come, have faith be patient and above all else support and don't give up. At this moment in time the thing the players need the most is us.
