Well, his future is at stake but more importantly so is the club's. You score goals if you create chances but you have to take those chances. We need someone to do that and we need someone who can make a chance from nothing like Podge.

We have 2 difficult matches this week and unless we score we will lose them both and be sinking fast again. Optimism is great, long term team building is great, confidence in the manager is great too. But none of them will pay the bills unless we score some goals and win some games quick.


Bit in bold, really?

Would striker solve it ,we are hard to break down thought your lad should have scored when he turned in the area but the shot flashed wide.
It’s more having that player with the ability to unlock defenses.
Your no5 why did he stay on for so long he kept going down several times seemed dazed it took an age to replace him?

Kept going down - as a result of forearm smashes into his face you mean?

After the first 20 minutes when I thought we were going to get well beaten I thought we played some OK stuff without really threatening too much. However apart from the goal and Akinde's chance when he was through on goal I didn't think they troubled McKeown too much up to the sending off.

Not sure why many are having a go at Cardwell as I thought he won more hoofball headers than Thomas, but neither player looks to me like they will score that many goals and I feel we should be looking to bring in another striker.

I did think that Ohman looked outstanding and looks like he could well become a fans favourite like Futch did.

The most disappointing parts of today's game for me were that we were playing against a bunch of cheating twits and a shite ref.

Thought we were decent today...up to a point
Powder puff up top
No cutting edge
GK, defence were sound - and they had to be to face that style of play
Ohman and Ring will be cult heroes I feel
Hess was excellent
We missed Harry's energy
Cardwell is young and raw - lacks a physical presence, hardly ever scores..not good recipe
Thomas needs support and then he's decent

Not too down about result - they are top of the league blah blah

I think it's obvious were the problem lies but it's not easy to solve - money talks and those with the most get the best strikers

Need another win quick though to calm the nerves

Had a fantastic view of the first challenge on Ohman and I have to say it was one of the worst I’ve seen in a long time. The ball had gone and he’s done him on purpose. Nailed on red and awful officiating as the linesman had a crystal clear view of it.

That said we were pretty woeful. Turned up to try and cope with them rather than play. Majority of our creative players on the bench and hugely missed Clifton.

We just look a little burnt out at the minute after a fine Christmas. Need a physical option up front also.

Sorry but until we get a proper 'striker: through the door we are going to struggle...
I actually thought defensively we looked okay and reckon 3-5-2 would will work with the players we have with the exception of the front 2...
Ohman really impressed and Ring looks solid, has a bit of pace, tackles well and  put some good balls in and Hess works his socks off with a touch of quality too...
We are not a million miles off being a decent team and think next season will be more fruitful...
Today we got beat by one shot on target!!,cheats and a terrible ref!!!...
