I think the vast majority of players who have left us over the last 10 years have gone out of league footbal altogether. There are at least 6 that will go the same way from this mob.

Turley & Ward are delivering as are the inconsistent but occasionally dangerous Enzio & Alessandra. Milsom is decent on the ball, the keeper is doing well and Hemmings always gives you a chance with his mobility & grit. Chuck ?The experience of Duffy & Stead in and you've basically got the only players worthy of a place in decent league 2 team tbh.

Thus, I have sympathy for Kewell but his strategy and tactical approach are causing him, and us, some serious problems.
Last season's history surely counts before a ball has been kicked in the new season.

I certainly didn't expect the terrible defensive record over the first few games.

Have to say I was really hopeful before the season started. The more and more it has gone on, the more I see how we have suffered because of the refereeing errors in the play-offs. If we had gone up then I reckon it would have been a different story.
