    The biggest problem is the depth of the squad not just the quality. In an ideal world we wouldnt be asking Clayden to play out of position as a left back, we know all about Innis and his level of fitness and the same can be said with Chuks. I think that Garner has got the team playing the football that the owner and the majority of fans want but we won't be in the mix if those problems are not addressed.

    I'm still pissed at our transfer window. I don't much care about this result. 
  • Garner did say in his post window interview that it would take another one or two windows to get to where he sees us being a unit capable of achieving a top two position, and that will take care of this season if he is right.
    He comes over as a nice guy, but he does sound like he has almost given up as far as this season is concerned, could see some potential friction between him and Thomas before too long, oh to be a fly on the wall at their next meet.. ;)

    Only listened to the game and Terry's commentary, but after a flying start  we then sounded absolutely fucking awful!
    Morgan, Stockley, Kirk and Lavelle sounded crap, Claydon is not ready for this level of football. JRS and Fraser sounded OK  but overall we got what we deserved....fuck all!
    Next 3 games we have to step up and play and win....then we might, just might get this season  going. 
    I watched and this is correct.
    Rak Saki was our only constant threat.
    Fraser played well, had arguably his best game for us and looked at his fittest so far.
    O' Connell is proving to be our best defender today and most games.
    Kirk did virtually nothing (as expected against a tough side).
    Morgan has reverted to the usual poor Morgan after a few good games (as he always does).
    Stockley worked quite hard, but looks heavy legged, achieved little of note and doesn't look like scoring.
    Clare looks exposed by how open we are.
    Clayden too was exposed, his touch was poor at times and he's not looking good enough defensive wise.
    Lavelle was ok at best.
    Wollacott wasn't at his best.
    Dobson did well enough, but him & Fraser were having to do Kirk & Morgan's work as well.

    Least impressive of our league games so far, but we often struggle at Bolton and their rough house tactics.

    7 games now played against top half teams.
    We need to win the upcoming games against the lesser teams.

    I wonder how long TS will tolerate paying Curbs and Brownie to  lay in to the team and the way the club is managed. And put up with Garner saying the squad is too weak.
    I was wondering that too...
    Expecting Curbs and Brownie to be amongst the next sackings.
    To be replaced by some kids doing a media studies course at Greenwich Uni on a (free) internment arrangement, with punditry from Academy players.
    A no brainer!

    Well done Ben Garner for basically telling the owner he has fucked things up yet again. Extra like points for Garner
     I know people think I'm a happy clapper, but I smiled reading his comments.

    Sandgaard has truly fucked me off with the progressively shit handling of everything. Chance after chance...

    I so wanted him to be successful, how many chances can you give though? If the murmurings around the club are true, it won't be a problem too much longer.

    And I think I know which one my money is on. It's us after all.

    ‘murmurings’ 

    Pray tell ???
  • At the match. First game this season.
     Poor.
    Beaten to first and second balls too often.

    I think they pressed us well which didn't allow us to play our passing game. Forced us into too many too hurried bad passes.

    Feel kinda sorry for stockley he is a fish out of water. He did look frustrated. But he don't half spend a lot of time complaining for a captain. Must feel crap fans shouting for Leyburn but well......

    I know it's a fad but I think a false nine would almost be better to try to start the way garner plays
    No easy answer though, as garner said we don't have the squad in depth. 
    Another day in the life of following me team.

    This. That sums me up as well. I defended Sangaard countless times on here and especially on twitter but i can't any more.
    He's trying to run the club on the cheap and it won't work.

    All I've heard is that Sandgaard is now open to selling and there is interest.

    This season is slipping away rapidly now.
    I would like to kid myself it can be made up, and I suppose there is still a chance, but blind faith is so last season, and the season before, and the season before that.
    It could be made up but I don't think it will. I said before the start of the season I could only see a mid table finish. I also said if you sign 4th Division players don't be surprised if you eventually end up there. BUT we started off looking ok & I thought that maybe with a few more signings we actually could push for top 6. As we all know those signings didn't come. Stockley can fall back & link up but won't score (many) playing in this system, Kirk looks like a frightened schoolboy most of the time, we have two fit centre backs who must be blind folded the amount of times they lose the men they're supposed to be marking & a young inexperienced winger playing at LB. Leaburn has done better than I thought he would but it's just absurd that we are relying on him coming off the bench every game to try & win us points. He should be being introduced slowly when we are in a winning position but with no other senior striker at the club we have to resort to a promising 18 year old. ( I can't include Aneke, will we ever see him again ?)
    Two years ago most of us were grateful for sandgaard "saving" the club, now we just seem to be an established Third Division club with no ambition. Premier ready my fucking arse.

  • Exeter will be a tough match, especially as we're now under a bit of pressure to get 3 points. 
    They are 7th
    And will stay there without further investment...not least a striker who scores goals..

    Baffling why any one would back a total stranger. We knew nothing about this bloke before he turns up.

    Yes applaud him into the door, that is respect. But from that point respect has to be earned. Achieve something like promotion or a ground breaking price strategy that gets people flooding back.

    TS should not be abused, but to point out his many errors is acceptable. For too long too many supporters have decided to just go with blind faith in someone who knows nothing about our football club. 

    If you want to idolise someone and get selfies with them go to an old players reunion.

    Bit of a weird take on it all. 

    Don't think I or Beds have ever wanted selfies with Sandgaard. Short memories forget all TS went through to ensure the safety of the club from Farnell. 

    He earned respect for a lot of the early stuff. He lost a lot of it for the recent stuff. The inbetween is a fantastic and dreadful mix.

    So you did at some stage. Get the thumb screws out lads B)  
  • If the murmurings are true then I won't be unhappy as the football is turgid and depressing and as other lifers have said you cannot do this footy lark on the cheap and clearly he's realising this. All the hype and promises... I feel like I've been mugged off. This truly is the worse era since I stated watching in the 70's and that was dark but this is something else! 
  • About tenth is my prediction this season, but to stand any chance whatsoever ever of achieving much higher we must win the majority of home games.
