And he's right of course. We're not losing games and that is very important. It's very rare for teams to get promoted from any of the semi pro leagues at our level without having major wobbles at some point during the season. At this level, squads tend to be small and don't naturally cover well for injuries, suspensions and dips in form by individuals as well as sides higher up the pyramid.
I do believe we have a far stronger core of players than anyone else in our league. With a bit of fine tuning, a new signing or two as appropriate and some returning players I think we'll get a run going again that will take us home as league winners.

Of greater concern imo are the number of yellow cards certain of our players are picking up, some of them unneccesarily. What is the point of arguing/mouthing off at the ref once he's already made his decision? He's not going to change his mind!

Alex Akrofi, all one booking away from a 2 match ban

I hope our two centre backs are reading this after Tuesday!

Could you pick my lottery numbers for me?

There's nothing wrong with a bit of optimism. If the players feel as negative as you lot, then we really are in trouble.

Alex Akrofi, all one booking away from a 2 match ban JR is like MP (now Ashford ) in that he plays like a terrier and you would expect the bookings - it's part of the DNA of the player that he is. JP's booking are mostly rubbish and he should let the captain talk to the ref more as these type of bookings are stupid. Where did AA get all these bookings? (Brentwood?)

Not disputing that JR plays like a terrier - I think he's a terrific (pun intended) addition to the squad. But what I disagree with is unnecessary bookings picked up by gobbing off
