You can add Sousa to that pay off roll too ... he is not even an enigma just a waste of a shirt ... one goal against sporting bromsgrove shows his level.
If you're gonna slate a player, get the right facts, it was Maidenhead he scored against!.. It was Bromsgrove where he nearly got snapped in half!..

Sousa is better on the right hand side especially when Efete is behind him.
What next? Mid table finish, manager goes nowhere for a good while yet.

We will beat Wealdstone on Saturday and kick the can a bit further down the road. It will be a similar performance to the Southend and Altrincham wins no doubt. Some will see it as a turning point before a pointless visit to Notts Co.

He's obviously well into sacking territory and probably would have been given the boot already at most clubs. And for the record, I like Paul but I think he may be coming to the end of his managerial career, at least in the EFL.
I'm not sure what the thinking will be as the owners have trusted him completely to run the playing side. The next 6 games include 5 extremely winnable games against sides in the bottom half:
Wealdstone (H) Notts County (A) Kings Lynn (H) Aldershot (H) Southend (A) Dover (A)
12-15 points from those games would see us in the mix for the play-offs again. This side is surely capable of that. Just depends on whether the owners feel they can still trust PH to build a long-term 'project', or that a new manager bounce would be more beneficial with the run of fixtures to come.

Wealdstone are no mugs as we saw when we went to their place and got turned over with relative ease.

Apologies mistaking one part time team for another. Regardless of who he scored his only goal in half a season against he is far too weak a player to warrant the game time he has been given. We have too many passengers in this squad / first team.. we are yet again getting inundated with u23s or players released from league 2. Now if this is all we can attract in this window then we all need a reality check as to where this season will peter out into. And one we have finally accepted our fate for this season, we order a mini bus driven by hurst and doig then fill it with :- Sousa John Lewis Coke Crookes Scannell Grant Get them gone and once again start again

I said the same about Sousa a few weeks ago.
I don’t think I’ve seen anyone in the division this season as good at carrying the ball as him and he terrorises defences but he has 1 league goal this season and I can think of 1 assist off the top of my head but this is likely wrong.
Compare that to JMD who has 3 goals in his last 3 games at home and a delivery that is bound to create more.
Hurst needs to go nuclear on Saturday and change things up.
Wright on the left and Scannell on the right if JMD is out. If Scannell isn’t up to it then time to cut him loose.
Abrahams up front. Taylor is great but I feel like he drops in whereas Abrahams will stretch.
McAtee in the hole with Raikhy behind. Then Hurst needs to try and find a dominant midfielder from somewhere to partner him. Good luck with that last bit though.

Yeah, win those games and we'll be flying! Every thing crossed but I doubt it'll happen......
