The Poolie Bunker

We were total shite.

About 50 mins before kick off they were playing Madness' Embarrassment and I jokingly said I hope they won't be.

Well, well, well...I am now fooking furious. I usually keep my cool but that was appalling.

We deserved to lose by more (and Hereford weren't out special).

Our midfield couldn't string a pass together, we had no movement, nothing up front and our defence was all over the team. We were a complete and utter shambles.

Why do we bother travelling all that way to watch THAT?

We must be the biggest idiots ever, paying our well earned cash and dragging our arses down there to see THAT.

We are quickly becoming the joke of League 1.

I'm not one to criticise the players but that was appalling.

Serious question Daniel....players or managers fault?
Who would you lay the blame with?

Hard one that...

Their was a lack of spirit and fight so that was the players fault.

Or was it Wilson's for not motivating them?

Definitley a lack of tactics, things were going wrong and Wilson defintley failed to make the right subs.

Have the players lost form or is something more sinister happening?
I haven't seen 10 out of 11 players (Brown being the only one) whose form has hit rock bottom before...has Wilson lost the dressing room.

We're seriously messed up, I'm not overly happy that Wilson didn't do a post match interview. He defintley needed to explain things.

I can only assume it's both the players and the manager. We'll never know to be honest.

One final point, when they came to clap us and they got our reaction the players did look genuinley upset (although they didn't get too close as it was very hostile) so there is some feeling from them. It's not all gone, it's just not showing on the pitch.

Trouble is that this team is used to being shielded from the blame. It's always the manager/chairman/[insert excuse here]. The players we have let their heads drop far too easily. Brown is the only one blameless in my opinion, the rest should be ashamed to pick up their wages.

I'm going to shoot the first player who goes in the paper/Poolsworld saying how 'up for it' he is.

I am seriously pissed off with this shower!

the goals we conceded were really poor again mind, poor defending both times.

Particularly the second when Humphreys politely stood aside to let their player through. I'm sick of saying it but as a left back he can get away with it in Div 4 but in this league he is found out. Frankly I think he'd do a better job in midfield that some of the others, at least he tries to be creative, just keep him away from the free kicks.

As our bairn said just now, 'what is all this stuff about motivation? I get up and go to school every day, give it my best performance and get the same exam grades in subjects where the teachers are bad as in the ones where the teaching is good.'
The team had better watch it. Normally she's second only to Elvis in optimism

She is spot on.

If I went to work and sat stratching my arse I'd get the sack.
