⚽Match thread vs. Coalville Town FC 15.10.22 [FAC-QR4]

The players take full responsibility for this.

Luke Williams has protected some of the key players and offered the fringe members of the squad an opportunity on a silver platter to impress today against very modest opposition, and they've thrown it away, along with our chances of a lucrative cup run.

If I was Kairo Mitchell or Ed Francis (for instance) I wouldn't be knocking on the manager's door asking for a first-team opportunity anymore. In fact, I'd be making preparations for other employment when my contract expires at the end of the season.

This is absolutely shocking.

Some managers seem to think they can just change the team like flicking a switch. This result could have big repercussions. One can't turn form on and off.

Williams has to take full responsibility for this. Putting a side like this out is a disgrace. Most of them are not good enough.
No urgency whatsoever. Endless corners totally wasted. What do they do on the training ground?
I get sick to the back teeth of watching visiting supporters celebrating at ML.

Sheepish, like you know what goes on that level inside the Club haha

I guess they'd have a professional discussion about but i don't know because I'm not involved.

This 100%

As I said at the top this starts with LW's approach and team selection. Picking second stringers and hardly any attacking players helped Coalville get into the game and build their confidence. There wasn't much in the starting XI to scare them.

That's on LW. Nobody's saying he hasn't been great for us so far, he has. But there's no denying he screwed up today. Big time.

[Eastcoastultra1977]

Hope LW gets stuck into them this week and fired up for Friday

...but it's LW's fault 100%

Totally agree on todays game but we're also top of the League so keep in context.

Visiting supporters celebrating at ML...we hardly lose at ML?

Easy to say in hindsight but those players should be good enough to win this game of football

You're an embarrassment. Total madness.

Hey, you're back!

Terrible without a doubt but I do think your final sentence is a bit of an over-reaction though given our home record.
