Funny things, toes ! I note that the club statement did not mention whether the offending toe is affixed to Tom's left foot or right foot. Neither does it describe the position, we don't actually know whether its a big toe, little toe, or somewhere in between. Then we get told nobody seems to actually know whats wrong with it. Mmm ! The mystery deepens.ššš¤£ Maybe he's been dropped cos he won't toe the line. |

Highlights. Keeper unsighted for the first, defence went to sleep for the second, and an own goal deflection for their third. Why do people come on here and lie to discredit one of our own players? youtu.be/HCV9Mj661II |

Sandford clearly the best keeper we have but I still find it bizarre there are people who think Mersin is better than Hadler š¤£ Mersin had an off day. Tom's had them as well. Sandford is clearly better than both and him going off clearly knocked the confidence out of the defense, especially the centre backs. But yesterday's problems stemmed more from midfield in my opinion. Booty had an off day and gave the ball away for their second. Both the wide men were also poor, only Dom really had a good day in the middle, even Corne, apart from the goal, wasn't at his best. Too many 5and 6 out of 10 performances on the day. Sandford 8, Fowler 7, Ellul 6, Greenitch 7, Galvin 8, Patterson 5, Booty 5, Corne 6, Deacon 5, Odusanya 7, Barham 7, Mersin 4, Fawole 6, Al Hussani 5, Although to be fair to the last two they didn't have long to make an impact. Sandford would have been 9, but I wondered if his injury might have come from going for a ball he wasn't likely to get. |

That is the question. "Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And, by opposing, end them?ā The idea of whether is it better to live or to die.2 To die: to sleep; No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep; To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub; For in that sleep of death what dreams may come When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause: there's the respect That makes calamity of so long life; For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The pangs of despised love, the law's delay, The insolence of office and the spurns That patient merit of the unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death, The undiscover'd country from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all; And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought, And enterprises of great pith and moment With this regard their currents turn awry, And lose the name of action.--Soft you now! The fair Ophelia! Nymph, in thy orisons Be all my sins remember'd!ā So in conclusion I can say that the Hadler toe injury debate is has now developed the same level as importance to some Maidstone fans as the existence of life itself. |

The club have stated Tom is injured. Are you accusing our owners of lying? Why would they do that when it could easily be disproved by the player himself? Yes 100% , from info inside the club. |

Sandford would have been 9, but I wondered if his injury might have come from going for a ball he wasn't likely to get. Feel your being very very generous to Ellul there Dave he was diving in and missing things in the first half (Best of which was around the half way line shoved the Woking player out the way and the ball bounced more or less through his legs and Woking were on the counter attack), their first goal he had the chance to take the player out but only did half the job and they still went on and scored (the ref did come back and book him but it was a pointless card to pick up as the Woking attacker still went past him). Also it was Adarkwa and not Al Hussani who came on  Completely agree that Sandford is the better of the three by a distance, the thing that I would question is if Hadler isn't injured then why is he not being sent out on loan somewhere, we have 4 keepers on the books surely we could help free some budget up loaning Hadler out. |

Why do people come on here and lie to discredit one of our own players? youtu.be/HCV9Mj661II Can only concur. Quite what all the negativity on Mersin is about is hard to fathom. Their second is actually a rather clever header and not sure what else Mersin could do with any of them. Only highlights I can find on YouTube are from Woking and they seem to show we had very much the better chances and more of them too. Had we been sharper in front of goal that would have been at least a draw - Sandford or not. |

Can't believe daveu had no insider knowledge after all this time.
Probably convenient enough that Hadler has a poorly toe at the mo.
No question there has been a bust-up that has put Tom 'out of favour'.

The Mersin fan club is very exclusive and limited to less than a dozen members of this forum.

There have always been some supporters who follow Hak's lead in bigging Mersin up.
There's nothing wrong with calling a player out over a poor performance.
Take Joe Ellul yesterday, he had a really poor match and needs to get over it quickly.
Other players were below par as well.
But Mersin has never convinced me that he is a good keeper.
Can't agree that he is better than Tom Hadler either.
We can all agree that Ryan Sandford is a different class, sadly he is only on loan.

The Hadler fan club rely on innuendo and unsubstantiated leaks to tarnish the reputation of Mersin who is harmed by very woeful defending ( Goals 1 and 3 ) are evidence for his Defense. What was he expected to do about these two goals in particular ?

They also rely on inventing a Mersin fan club claiming heās better than Hadler (there isnāt), and claiming every defeat is down to Mersin (it isnāt) and saying the club are deliberately lying about Hadlersā injuries (theyāre not). Itās very bizarre behaviour due to the fact they canāt dictate who the manager picks (they canāt). Iāve never seen fans of any club get so obsessed over goalkeeper selections.
