    Back to being mediocre

    The gaping flaws in this squad now laid bare...promotion?

    That sucked. Our worst performance of the season, after going 1-0 up as well. We looked lightweight in midfield. Clayden was massively exposed. Lavelle with a couple of 1-v-1 blocks but not a lot else--i worry about his positioning and lack of mobility. Kirk not taking the game to them enough. Clare had an off day. And Stockley. 

    Egbo must be getting close, right? Hopefully CBT will be available from the start next week. It's probably worth giving Leaburn a start at center forward at some point, but I don't think that he's the answer at this stage. His touch is so unpredictable and he's still learning his position. 

    Always worth noting, we've played some very good teams to this point. Sheff Wed, Bolton, Accy, and Wycombe away are all out of the way now. We've beaten the 3rd and 9th place sides, drawn with 5th, lost to 4th and 8th, both away. It's not a terrible start. Not where we want to be, but there is still a lot of time and easier matches to make up ground.

    There’s gonna be a lot of overreactions after today’s performance, especially because of deadline day disappointment. But that’s only our second loss in 10 under Garner (all comps), and on the most part we’ve played good opposition. The season isn’t over by any stretch.
    Browny and Curbs are laying in!
    They were this critical of us under Adkins. 
    Yes, they have been right both times.
    Sorry I meant they were not this critical.

    My optimistic take on the transfer window has been torn to shreds today.
    Sorry folks  :-(

    It’s gonna be a long hard winter methinks. The last week has been a deflation to say the least. Onwards and…..well fuck knows.

    Plymouth looking like a one off 
    Not really, we would probably beat 10 men most of the time.
    History tells us that isn’t true, unfortunately

    Outplayed and outwitted by a well drilled Bolton team. We aren’t playing badly and should have scored a couple ourselves. Need maximum points from the two home games otherwise we ain’t going anywhere.

    What did they say @Weegie Addick as not watched it today?

    Until ‘No Dough Strummer’ puts his hand in his pocket nothing will improve, he had the chance and did nothing during the window.

    I’m still holding back judging them until 10 games in and I take on board we’ve played the ‘better’ teams in the division, and that that’s only our second defeat, but I can’t help but thinking there had been a general misjudgment of optimism based on the first few games of the season, plus forgetting how big the gulf was in terms of where we finished last year and building a squad successful to get promoted this season, and that includes what people may categorize as our decent players.  

    We were woeful last season overall, I don’t see how you can say anything else, even though we had a couple of decent results here and there.  We pretty poor for most of the season before, masked by the 7th place finish.  Taking all that into consideration, a couple of free transfers from Leagues One and Two and a couple of loans is monumental and misplaced optimism.


    Last good season was 18/19.

    Promotion...nothing doing on this form with this current squad..

    First time I've watched us properly.

    I keep hearing about a new playing philosophy, pedalled by Sandgaard and co. Imagine how disappointed I was ten minutes in when I saw it was pretty much the same as the last philosophy.
    Quite where Sandgaard goes with this when it inevitably goes tits up is anyone's guess??
    ...makes two of us..

    That's it though ain"t it?   Can anyone who has any knowledge of supporting this football club over many seasons expect us not to bollocks that up?

    Tiring and oh so predictable and that's just me!  Tired of Charlton.

    I like your optimism SDAddick, however I feel we are going to have to play a lot better to get a result against any team.
    Starting Kirk and Stockley is like playing with nine men.  Stockley should be fined a weeks wages every time he falls over without anyone touching him.  Why the first sub on 73 minutes, were we playing that well no changes were needed.
