At last you've mentioned the real problem..... Don't care who you have in midfield if you have no width you have no options. Get some pace out wide and 2 decent overlapping full backs and Sheron will do just fine winning the ball and/or moving it on to a Conlon or Lundy or passing a simple ball out wide himself. Our only decent option out wide is Green. Fact is we've won 2 out of our last 12......Green started in both these games. We've not won in 8 which corresponds with Green getting injured against Southend and not playing since.. It's not rocket science where the bigger problem lies and why we have fucked up was a good position after winning at Eastleigh....no width or pace and we are too narrow and predictable.

That's any tiny chink of light extinguished

Wesldstone last home game will be lucky to get 6k.....should have been a full house

Nope not forgotten at all. Fact is he took over when we were 3 points off a play off place, he was given a budget to improve us and he simply hasn't. Just look at today's line up! It's fucking all Unsworths side bar Dallas who hasn't scored yet!! No improvement whatsoever! You couldn't make it up.....

You can try and dress it up as much as you want but the facts remain. As you say he came in and we were 3 points off the playoffs. We've won 1 in 10 and are now 9th 4 points adrift as it stands and likely to be further behind come 5pm. Sorry he's failed this season in my eyes big time.

Fact is we are pretty much where we were when he took over. So 30 games in, it's clear to me he has not improved us as a team, his signings have been questionable at best based on their performance, and I can't think of any individuals who I can say have got better since his appointment. In fact it could be argued that we have gone backwards. Needs to change quickly next season and he has lots to prove in my eyes...

And we have taken 4 from our last 21 which makes it all the more disappointing...

Certainly better than anything we have

Cue piss boil in 3 minutes.....

Why the fuck is Mellon not changing anything.....something...

Where the fuck is Sachdev? No forwards on the bench? And is Hallam Hope the best we can do? Mellon has picked only Conlan and the Dallas from who he has signed, in his matchday 16. Is it me or is anyone else really struggling with him, his selections and his tactics at the moment. Hope he/they prove me wrong

I made the call after Fridays shit show to bin my ticket and the 450+ mile round trip, and will watch the game today from the comfort of my front room with a beer or 2. Fair play to the blue army who will get pissed wet through on that open terrace. Just hope the players appreciate the support and put in a 90 minute shift. Hopefully a few changes with Sanchdev, Raglan, Lundy and Sutton getting a chance to show they can be better than some of the wasters over the past few games. They will know it's shit or bust today with only 3 points an acceptable result if we want to give ourselves any hope of making the playoffs, so come on you blues and show some pride in the shirt

Depends on how poor I think. If it goes the same way as Aldershot, Fylde then there has to be some sort of reaction, as this season will be done if it's not done already.....

Try saying it without sounding like an arrogant dick and and you will get less vilified? Some of your points are valid, some of your self adulation probably isn't

Could get very messy this if we don't turn up

We used 6 players who were 30 yrs plus today, and another 3 who were 28. We need some youth and energy and what we have he rarely plays. Where is Sachdev? Why not give Sutton a go at centre back? Our strikers combined age was 68.....says it all.....

He's just underperformed unfortunately with both the players he has inherited, some of who should be easily good enough to get us into the top 7 in this league, and his signings have failed to impress or make us better. His win ratio with us is worse than any club he has managed bar Dundee so something isn't right.

Agreed but he's decided on Rhino and Mellon being the best managers to get us out of this league, which have failed..... and sanctioned the signings and money spent. It seems the whole message board have seen we have needed a more creative midfield, and some energetic youth, speed and width for 2 years, yet we have done fuck all to address this. It's either DR or MMs fault so which is it??

Whilst I agree MM will be here next season, and DR needs explain why after considerable squad and management investment we are still shit, the accounts make no difference in this league and the pot can indeed be endless! If the owners/investors wants to invest more money and piss it away in the NL... they can without penalty. If they haven't got any more that's different and more worrying......

On 17th October Mike Williamson moved from Gateshead to MKD who were 17th in L2 I think and struggling.. They are now 4 points off Wrexham at the top and stand an excellent chance of automatic promotion to L1. Maybe we backed the wrong horse.....

That shite donkey Garity has just scored his 12th goal of the season for a poor Port Vale side in L1. Absolutely the right decision not to sign him as we are fine in midfield

What I don't get is that we were playing well and looked a decent side at Maidenhead on 17th Feb....since then we have won once which was shite at Ebsfleet and have been dreadful bar Chesterfield.. I agree with what some have said that something can't be right internally between the players and Mellon.

Question has to be asked....has Mellon made us worse??

Such a poor returns from set pieces = what the fuck are we doing all week in training!!

Exactly!
