Has the confidence been knocked out of the players since the Mansfield game?

What I saw today.

No midfield,no idea, Defenders looking for players to pass to in the end lumping it up to Hanson.

Not sure that anyone wants the ball at times players hiding instead of making themselves availiable or even having a run or two.

This is a million miles away to what we were seeing at the start of the season.

WTF has happened to all that promise????????????

Didn't go, but think because our two most creative players in Robson and Wright were missing, that would have an impact.
Not sure what other reason can be put forward.

From the games I have seen this season we have looked competent if lacking penetration
Hanson has lost his shooting boots which doesn't help

Hope we turn the corner soon, as someone has pointed out we are only 3 points off playoffs.

That's three crap teams we have made look like top oof the table sides sorry but this is diabolical. Second half we looked a bit better but bad finishing cost us . We were the comeback kids but now we are just fodder how many games have we given goals away early on now?? This time we never looked like a threat very disappointing.

Jolley will get some grief and rightly so some of those players needed a bottom kicking today as well they looked so disjointed and bereft  of any game plan by one.

I still think we lose possesion far to easy and have done for most of the season the stats back me up on  this.

My five penneth, no width , no wide players, and no wingers see what I did with that. Thought our mid field is non existent , all three of them sit in front of the back four allowing the opposition so much room ( there is always 5 of them) so what do you expect . A forward line...   Well,  bring back Tony's Rees please . Michael grow some and drop Hanson and make us play foot ball instead of the Beckham 40 yard wonder passes.
All in all very disallusioned with the football being played.

Every ball is a hoof towards Hanson and immediately we are having to fight for a second ball. So frustrating to watch.

If that's the extent of Jolley's team and tactics after three transfer windows, he isn't cut out for management. Long diagonal to the big man is quite frankly nowhere near good enough.

Waterfall/Ohman is not our best CB pairing..
What's happened to Hendrie?
Our midfield three is just not good enough whoever plays..

We can't play through other sides to get the ball to Rose, Vernam, Ogbu with the ball at their feet or on the half turn to run at defenders. CV has come in for a lot of criticism today but he was the only one moving, showing or making runs first half, never got picked out and when he was the pass was poor.

We are formulaic, static, ponderous and non-creative with the ball..
We are slow, absent-minded ball watchers without it at crucial moments..

Gibson and Macca were the only two who did their jobs today..

Until we pass and move and be mentally switched on for 90 minutes, we're never going to be anything other than inconsistent mid-table or lower table fodder..

Jolley has got to pull his finger out and look at himself today. Drags Vernam off because our midfield can't get the ball to him or Rose. How about sorting out our midfield and style of play to get the ball to our danger men in dangerous positions rather than giving up and reverting to crudely lumping it to the big man? A tactic that any Sunday League manager could employ..

Got a feeling that our squad of players has got more to give if they were managed better..

I felt sorry for Hanson last week because he never got a decent ball all game and by the sound of things it was the same today.

Come on Jolley come up with a plan and stick to it stop messing about  with selections and tactics.
