COSU saved the club and now we need to see what they’re made of. We look a thoroughly mediocre non-league side at best..
.if they have any ambition then it’s going to take some investment. This team isn’t going anywhere.
@Smudger830 That was an awful performance, dreadful defending and goalkeeping for both goals and we couldn’t have complained if we lost by more. Lacklustre and toothless only Bim and Keenan can look on that with any pride. Frankly nowhere near good enough absolutely nowhere near.
@KristofShrimper We were never in the game. Alty just soaked everything we put in box, yet we kept doing the same thing. Too much build up play with no threat on goal.
Could've been more than two. Sadly we offered nothing & waited too long to make a change. Sorry to say but poor today.
We go again. @robertaskew7 Comes to a point where COSU need to open the chequebook for Cards and Kensdale replacements and few upgrades. Collin unfairly treated.
Central midfield selection was totally wrong and another game where we haven’t tested the keeper. Players must step up. @ConorSammon100 We're a team lacking any pace or guile.
Every opposition goalkeeper knows they'll have an easy afternoon against us as we don't shoot and don't have the players to get in behind teams. @lincolnshrimp Another poor display. Crowther looks shaky on the ball, Morton—our most consistent midfielder—is dropped, and we run out of ideas in the final third.
The talent is there to challenge for the league, but the management's panicked decisions are costing us. @stuartbailey276 Dreadful first half and still powderpuff after half time - I think the natives are getting restless and all the murmurings after the match were about discontent with the management and tactics - whilst that might be premature something needs to change very soon. @Ianjholmes Unless they were carrying knocks, Morton and Coker must consider themselves unlucky.
Miley and Husin were poor. Tactics easy to defend against. Slow, slow build up, eventually to Gus, and an overhit cross, or easily headed away.
We could play for days and not score. A long day. @philjd52 Crazy decision to leave both Coker & Morton on the bench.
Miley not up to speed yet & Moncur not as good as the other two on the bench. We lack a goal threat & Coker does have a threat with his shooting. COSU will have to invest in new players if we want to get out of this league @tommyharris57.
