This is a key point I feel and completely fair and balanced.

Quoted from Poojah
However the biggest question for me is why oh why wasn’t it someone’s job, and preferably not a striker, to be all over Tshimanga at a set piece?


Who was Taylor marking at set pieces when he was on?

Footballers make mistakes. It happens at every level, every weekend and players like Tshimanga live for that one opportunity. If everything was defended correctly every time, there would be very few goals scored in matches.

They made some mistakes too, but we didn't punish them.

Thanks Rob. It does help. I never express an opinion if I haven’t been at the game myself or watched it in full on TV. Brief highlights or radio commentary are no basis for judging the team’s performance.


I agree, highlights (particularly earlier in the season) have been quite biased this year. However, I must say these particular highlights do accurately reflect the game I saw.

Good to see there are still a lot of sensible fans around. We were down to bare bones on Saturday and we were as good as top of the league Chesterfield.

Clifton misses a header though and Crookes misses the goal from under the bar and then the idiots call for Hurst’s head.

It is a game of fine margins but wake up people. The man in the dugout wasn’t responsible for those misses. The thing he was responsible for was the team and the tactics. He had his hands tied with regards both and still could have got a win there on another day.

I didn’t see the point to the Taylor sub because a 50% Taylor is as good as a 100% Lenny in my book but there you go. Hurst made that choice and a series of events led him to (not) be on Thsimanga for the goal. Probably the only blemish against Hurst on Saturday for me but again he can’t make players not switch off lose their man.

And it’s fine to be disgruntled - it’s a horrendous run and nobody likes losing. What is annoying and unfair is how the disgruntlement is expressed. Not one player or the manager deserved booing on Saturday. If Hurst didn’t deserve sacking before the game then he shouldn’t deserve the sack after because other than the result there was nothing bad about it. The new owners don’t deserve any grief either.

A far too reasoned and sensible comment. Are you posting on the right board?

Well said Quebec, I was at the match and other than the result I enjoyed the game as we were toe to toe with them and really should have at least got the draw but that’s football. I once again have been taken aback by the out pouring of discontent. I mean yes the run is terrible but it’s not as black and white as it looks. It’s pointless arguing though I feel, everyone is entitled to their opinions but I hope we stick with what we have as in Hurst. I’ve a feeling the new year will be much better for us. UTM!
