All these people saying give George the job after 1 league game need to calm down. People wanting to give Elokobi an 18 month deal was absolutely ridiculous.

With the amount of games all the teams down the bottom have in hand, tomorrow's game is a must win, if we lose I think that's us pretty much gone. Now 7 points from safety and 5th from bottom, Oldham have 4 games in hand. We're down, we aren't getting out of this mess. They're finding form at the worst time too: 6th in the form charts and scored the 2nd most goals in the sane time period. Urgh.

How the hell does Deacon play 90 minutes every week. Absolute crap he was. First goal all down to Corne giving the ball away. Galvins worst game for us. Always hit the first man and his control was terrible. Now don’t get me started on Mersin. No control of his area at all. What a shambles of a season. I still think we should have gone back part time. We could sign the best part time players instead of the crap full time players that no one else wants. First season in NL when we were part time we finished mid table. Go full time and we are a mess.

I've been saying this for ages now, unless you have the money to do full time properly, you should be part time. Meanwhile, part time Wealdstone are in their 3rd season back in this league and are now challenging for the playoffs.

One brief moment of humour tonight, though.
As we left the ground there were two blokes by our Elmer, one was tapping him on the head.
"Why are you doing that?" asked his mate.
"I do it every game for luck", he replied.
"Does it do any good?"
"Hasn't bloody worked once!"
"We'll, stop doing it then!"
Some pretty deep philosophy there. Will we pay any attention to it? Probably not.

I think Oldham will survive, they are spending. We are banking on what Yeovil are doing and picking up points against the teams around us, and for them to stop doing so. Alternatively, for one of Maidenhead or Dorking (P27, Pts 29 and 30) collapsing.
As well as a serious change in approach, application and consistency.
We are bottom of the form table, the only club to pick up 0 points in 5 games, but these clubs are down there too.
I am grasping at an ever shrinking number of straws.
But suppose we survive, new manager. Then what? We would struggle to transform the team to National League standard without investment this summer.
The more I look, the worse it gets.

I wasn't at the game but does anybody think that this performance is a result of yesterday's deflating news that the takeover is off. We're the players looking disillusioned? Also let's not forget it was our 3rd game in 9 days and the previous two would have taken a lot of effort out of the players. Or were we just shit?

We need experience I was hoping for an experienced manager who knows the level and would have been happy to keep George as his assistant for a couple of years to learn the ropes. I'm sure George has it in him to be a great manager but I'm not sure he's ready for this level yet.

Looking at the Isthmian Premier table makes for depressing reading, we could be playing Aveley next season.

Hornchurch and Folkestone Folkestone are closer to mid table than they are the playoffs. They were 5th bottom 6 weeks ago and are the form team in the league. I think they'll get through via play offs.

I don't advise anyone to look at form tables, predicted end of season tables, points per game tables, etc tonight.
Certainly not if there are any sharp knives around.
How on earth have we managed to do this TWO NL seasons running...
