My god, is this our promotion challenging team that's had most of the summer to get to know each other? Where have they been...in the ****** pub?

How about we get a proper football manager in, one that likes to ATTACK teams and score goals because this current idiot is clearly incapable of that. How many defensive players do we want in the first 11? How many players who can't hit a ****** barn door when in front of goal. How many ****** corners are we going to put in? How often are we going to mis-control or play terrible passes? I'm done with this season already. Moushino out! He's proved we can draw games...not ****** good enough. Get rid.

If anyone had the misfortune to watch that dirge then you could see we are absolutely miles off. It was almost unbearable to watch.

For the record. I was not around during the previous record run. I don’t think…

We haven't added goals to the squad. We lost Piggott, Jacobs and Scarlett, Dale who contributed in double figures and now have Saydee, Robertson, White, Scully, Yengi and Kamara who may or may not replace those goals. We finished 40 goals behind Ipswich last season, 21 and 20 respectably behind Plymouth and Sheff Wed. Beating Orient 4-0 doesn't really mean anything because they defended like a pub team. Look at Cheltenham yesterday...couldn't break them down. Recruitment has been decent but the two wide players have been disappointing so far.
Maybe we should put a bid in for Johnson Clarke-Harris. Definitely need another left winger and possibly attacking midfielder imho.



I wrote this after the Cheltenham game....I stand by it, other than the opposition was different.

By my count 5. A goalkeeper and a back four.

I hope JM takes the few days left in the transfer window to bring in a quality proven goal scoring attacker who can make the difference from a having another also ran season into we will be up there one. We desperately need an experienced loan or permanent player that has the nouse to play in this division in other words not another youngster.
