Just back ..from the kitchen

Quoted from nightrider

I said it a couple of weeks ago, where are the goals coming from.
Meaning in basic terms, you can't play lenny and Hanson. In fact, you can't play Hanson full stop.
Baring in mind the squad we have and how much I think of Hewitt, len is the first name on the team sheet.
It should have been len and Payne 3games ago, but baring in mind the manager is still learning, I'll let him off. Payne was crap, but then he would be playing with Hanson. Stick him with lenny is a different matter.
If there was a way of getting Hanson to drop deeper, len further up with somebody else running past Hanson, that might work. As it is, it won't. Ever. We might get the odd goal, but it's not going to be consistent. He must have known this months ago

As for lens miss, we knew full well he couldnt shoot 5year ago. So unless he's been attending the Chris doig school of shooting, nothing would have changed. And that's OK. It's upto the other striker and god forbid some of the others to weigh in with afew.

We need a new right back next season. 100%. We also need a replacement for hanson
Matete I'd imagine might want to venture back towards London? I don't buy the bit about wanting to win a place at Fleetwood. That ships sailed I think. Surely we could offer what he's getting at Fleetwood, or maybe not

LJL is never going to be a prolific scorer.

So why on earth did we pay a fee for him? Knowing that we needed goals.

All this garbage about ‘he’s not here to score goals’ doesn’t wash either, he put them in in NLN which unfortunately appears to be his level

Quoted from moosey_club

Back four looked solid again after a tricky start and extended pressure first half , midfield duo compliment each other well and are forming a good partnership/ understanding even tonight were they were outnumbered they didnt get slaughtered , Lamy is growing in confidence, him and Clifton actually playing well together,

our problem is the quality around their box , sure people will point at LJL's miss, rightly so as it was a poor effort in reality.... but that was the only through pass into a strikers feet in the game , probably the first through ball of that type since Payne got his debut goal.  There are very few strikers...in fact there are none, that take every chance they get in a game and if you are only getting one chance per game then the odds are stacked.

For our improved second half there wasnt any significant increase in final quality , Lamy had plenty of crossing opportunities and failed with every one, every free kick we took we failed to create danger, every corner was poor, every "long" throw poor.  Not a single cross into the box for Hanson to get at.

Jackson certainly had a lively cameo, he is the unfinished article but he wants to get forward and is alive, some nice touches and he doesnt stand and admire them either, plays it and spins off.

An improvement of sorts but without quality set pieces, without that ruthless finisher we will need to create 5-6 good chances a game to stand a chance of scoring even one.

And where exactly might we find a decent goal-scorer who wants to play for a team bottom of the 4th division? In a fantasy world I suppose we might attract the equivalent of Liam Hearn, Omar Bogle or Padraig Amond, but in this rather annoying real world we live in, that my friend just ain't gonna happen.
