Special mention to DKD, Fage and Baha today who were an absolute mess. Fans still chanting Bahamboula’s name, which I find bizarre. I’ve heaped praise on him in the past, but apart from a hundred step overs (which lead to nothing) he’s either been way off the paste for 2 months now or isn’t arsed anymore. I’m all for protests and i’m not even too bothered about the flares on the pitch today because it’ll likely lead to a fine, hitting them hard etc, but there is a new element of our fan base which are a disgrace. Today i’ve heard multiple racist outbursts, homophobic outbursts and multiple instances of drug use. People don’t even hide it anymore. Watched a 16 year kid rolling a joint today and lit it up during the 2nd half, before sharing it with his mates. Majority of them are 14-20 year olds, i’m only in my early thirties myself, so i’m not being an old miserable bastard but we’re fucked if these lot are our future. I think it’s becoming more and more brazen, but those sort of things were going on at Oldham games for a number of years. There was a lot more drinking in plain sight in the stands today than there was normally but actually if the set-up behind the scenes is non-league then fans are going to adopt non-league behaviour. The law that prevents drinking in sight of the pitch is more than a bit antiquated and is rumoured to be reformed. Eventually there is going to be trouble amongst our fans (not with the opposition) if some of the behaviour you rightly highlighted continues. The stewarding was a joke though. I was asked to remove my bottle tops before going into the ground, I did so but put them straight in my pocket right in front of the steward who asked me to remove them, so once through the turnstiles they went back on my bottles. Never had the ability to do that before. As I was heading to the bar before HT I heard stewards talking to each other about people drinking, but didn’t seem to want to do anything about it. No point identifying that sort of behaviour if you aren’t going to stop it (although it’s a stupid law anyway). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The very worst case scenario is we end up like Bury where we start at the very bottom the aim now should be to try and avoid that at whatever way possible, but if that's the situation then we will just have to face it abd deal with it and toil around the North West counties for a couple of years. Despite my horrific negativity towards the club I'm actually deep down very optimistic that we will get the club back at some point I just hope it's sooner and in as higher position in the football pyramid as possible.

I agree, but it is going to be a very very long way back from here. As yet, we haven't hit rock bottom, which won't be long.

rvlatic Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Like it or not - our players are in that catch 22 situation where they are scared of making a mistake so choose the safe option of a square/backwards pass. Watching that today- nobody wanted it enough. Normally we get a couple of new faces in to give the rest a boost or kick up the arse- but that won't be happening anytime soon so this lot just HAVE to find a way of getting their shit together.

He's probably just going to try to get a bit of confidence back into the team (just in time for Martin to take us back to the promised land).

The answer is we can play with a flat back 4 with Clarke at right back. The other positions are virtually impossible to fill with the players we have.

If we ended up here 15 years ago I’d almost relish the opportunity to start again in the manner you suggest. But in that time there are many clubs have have come on leaps and bounds, leaner, more in touch with the community and with a town wanting to back its club. maybe I need to stop looking at this through a narrow lens.

If you take the morals out of it, they’re of equal concern. Both want circa 6 million. If the current trend continues and we go down, how many non league clubs get sold for 12 million?
