In fairness he did that after we got hammered at Chesterfield / Stockport and nobody said anything last 4 games when we picked up 10 points did they.

People were getting carried away with all this talk of 2nd/3rd place finishes.

We could still do that still but imo we won’t, do a I think we make the play offs yes I do.

Nothing positive to take from a 5-1 hammering no matter how you dress it up he attacked second half and look what happened battered again.

We badly need Cameron back not only for his defending but leadership.

Sorry folks, my fault for looking into flights for the playoff final - jinxed us.

Can’t see any hope of us making third now - and we don’t deserve it based on the season overall.

I'm worried by the scoreline. You can be beaten, well beaten even, but when teams with good players concede 4s and 5s for me it points to some kind of psychological/ morale/ togetherness issue.

Obviously the missing loads of sitters issue, the letting loads of poor goals in issue, and the generally being soft as **** issue are worrying too.

Well, that was utter garbage. Ì don't know what we do in training, but we couldn't even do those simple passes without giving it away.. Big improvement required for the run-in.

For Gawd's sake don't dare say anything negative about our esteemed perfect owners. You'll be ostrichsized.

Does make you wonder whether the owners influence the style of play they want. As you know I along with you were big Ardley critics, but his style of play @ Solihull of the games I have seen are so different to when at Notts.
Always said the Owners player policy isn't for this league or style of play, not even in Div2.

I think the owners probably do want a certain style of play and imo it is the right thing to do that way you don’t need to overhaul your squad.

You just need to decide what style you want and get the type of managers in to implement it.

I am loathe to criticise them as from where I am they haven’t done anything wrong we seem stable under them get rid of them and you could have the next Haslam or Hardy not exactly what we want is it.

Absolutely shocking day at the office, but fortunately we're still in sixth place going into the next set of fixtures and the biggest threat - Boreham Wood with their games in hand - seem to be out of form. Grimsby didn't make much progress at Weymouth either. We've got to learn big lessons from today, apply them in the coming games against teams we should beat, and consign this result to history. And yes, we need game-changing players like Roberts and Sam on the pitch.

I think they could do worse than get some experience to work with them & a bit of guidance as they are new to running a club
I do think we play too much football if you get my drift

[i961pie]

I actually think we could get a point in this game

😜😜😜😜

[i961pie]

Yes correct. This guy is crap.

Fancy you being on here? oh hold on we lost didn't we? Silly me.
