    Burchnall Ball wont ever get us promoted

    Playing tippy tappy football, thinking you are Man City in the National League just doesn't work. Torquay looked much better than us both defensively and offensively playing proper National League football.

    We spend far too much time with the ball in our own half and don't have that ability to unlock defences that Man City do playing with that style. We need to be more direct and play in the oppositions half far more.

    Arter and Palmer doesn't work. It should be one or the other. Most of the time Wootton was left stranded on his own with little or no support, so not surprising Torquay put us under pressure.

    My conclusion is that Burchnall has to go, his style won't work at this level and will leave us languishing in the National League.

    Don’t hear much from you JT.
    So when we do there is something boiling away on the back burner.
    Yes I agree to quiet a lot there of what you said,and think he needs to mix it up much more than playing what’s called playing the ball on the floor too much.
    I love to see when it goes wonderfully right and we play teams off the park with panache,but have always wondered whether that will get us out this league????????

    We are becoming the team that everyone wants to play. If we dont get promoted, then Burchnall has to go.. Its not much good playing nice tippy tappy football with no end product...
