Can't help but feel a loss against the leagues bottom team on Tuesday would be a defining moment, not for Ollie but some of the players.

We’re getting a snap shot of how IH wants to play the lads have plenty of heart and desire all being  well they’ll adapt like all managers though he’ll try and improve us in the Summer

I think it would also be a snapshot of ‘ollie’ too...

Simple answer is we have to win on Tuesday. Nothing else will do. Once again there will be changes to the side but it has to work...

We’re not a good side and results today didn’t help. Praising losses is one thing but praising them when we can be easily dragged in to a relegation fight is dangerous. We should’ve seen the game out against a bang average side and we didn’t. Individual mistakes are costing us and whilst ya can’t legislate against that, it’s certainly not going to help.

Tuesday is must win. Simple as that.

I best go check the league table, I had give up being concerned 🤔

A rocky patch as we change styles doesn't come as a surprise, I'm sure it'll come good in time, the performances have largely been good. But obviously we don't want to be dancing with danger during our period of transition.

Certainly don't think it is a must win. Although we haven't got any points in the last two games, it is clear performances could have delivered some. 18 games to go and if we are 'in' every game like the last two, enough points will be racked up. Talking of must win games in January is premature.

Think we need a good performance on Tuesday, my biggest fear is losing the feel good factor rather than losing games.
Ollie can keep beating the drum and doing all the great stuff he is but we all know what we are like, we'll soon lose the focus and interest if results don't turn..it's just the reality of the situation.
Love Ollie and still somewhat in shock he's come to us, but we need 90 minutes of good football not 45 and I'm pretty sure that will happen sooner rather than later..and when we do I can see someone taking a real spanking. When do we play Scunny??...what a game for the stars to align!!!⚽🤞👍

I really want us to win because i hate Stevanage and not too keen on Crawley either, so it would be a double blow if we lose this one. It would also be criminal to lose twice to the current worse team in the league. They've only won three all season and one of those was against us.

Town need to be up for Tuesday........
Stevenage apparently have been very unlucky recently ( apart from winning 4-0 at Cambridge!)
They have some very quick front players and if you look at recent matches they certainly have some skill up front.
Town need to get the first goal and build on that.......keep tight at the back and stop giving the ball away too easily.
I’m sure Ollie is fully aware.......who am I to say !

Stevenage are a club that has wronged our lady fans, they need to be put to the sword, Ollie should instruct the players to get into these illegitimates from the off, give that shitty club that hates women a thumping they won't forget.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.
