We looked organised, committed and should have scored several in the first half. Their keeper pulled off a brilliant one hand stop to deny Abraham plus several other chances were hit straight at him. No complaints about the players effort today, it was 100% from every one of them so when DU says he was pleased then for once I will agree with him! The only thing that let us down today was our lack of end product but I guess if Timmy could finish then he would be Tammy 100% agree. Miles better than the tripe of late.

I ask because someone else who I know watched the game (post above yours) said they were enjoyable to watch today i did. They were better, no doubt but it’s hard to be worse than they have last 4 isn’t it. I think standards of what we like to watch have dropped to all time lows after recent performances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteG Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 People are saying progress? It's 1 win in 12 and we've gone from 14th when he took over to the bottom 4, i'm finding it hard to see the progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t go and it’s heartening to hear from the people who did and the positives. It’s just the lack a win yet again on the face of it etc. Plus no game for two weeks now?

Correct. I don’t comment on most games as being in Kent I don’t see too many and therefore don’t feel qualified-though my son tells me it has been dire and Wrexham on the telly was embarrassingly bad! However, although today was against very poor opposition we did look organised, at the back there was very little to bother about, Maynard had a solid game in the middle with Peck whose first half was particularly good, and Hope and the new guy from Cheltenham were busy. If Abraham’s shooting was as good as his approach play we’d have won that two or theee nil. Maidstone keeper won them a point! For me this was the better performance many have been saying we need - obviously wins are now the next essential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not Unsworths biggest fan but if anyones gonna slag him off when we are shit they have to equally give him some credit when we play well and are on the wrong end of the result. We were the better team today, dominated large parts of it, played with real intent and for the first time this season were unlucky, hopefully we can take it in to the Solihull game and build on it.

Which means no momentum from this I share your sentiment on this however I said the other week that these 2 weeks could be hugely important for us interms of work we can do on the training ground and bringing the squad together. Alot of them are still getting to know each other we are still in the squad moulding stage. So a week without a game might be a blessing for us.

That's fair comment and I didn't go today so i'm just looking at the result on face value. The opposition are garbage and it's hardly progress to get a draw. Progress means we are in a better position than when he took over and I can't get away from the 1 win in 12 which is an absolute shambles. We've some tough games coming up and I fear we could be adrift going into the New Year. I don't take any pleasure in this, I'm a Latics fan the same as everyone else on here.

The only thing that let us down today was our lack of end product but I guess if Timmy could finish then he would be Tammy The above posts capture most of it for me - overall a very encouraging performance, albeit against a poor one dimensional team on a tricky surface. We did leave Abraham isolated on occasions but the support from Peck & Chapman was good when we did push further forward. Tammy really should have scored but his overall work rate was excellent. There was not much closing down as a team with Unsworth’s game plan seeming to be hit them on the break - and to be fair it worked well with everyone competing and working hard. Hogan and Clarke were imperious at the back and Maynard looks a different player as a defensive midfielder. Their keeper saved them in the end. It’s still plain to see that many players still lack confidence but the signs of improvement are there. I left the game disappointed but encouraged.

A draw was the very least we should've expected today. Just because they played slightly better than they did in the last four doesn't make it acceptable.

Yeah we'd have definitely lost that game before Unsworth came in, despite having a much better record previously. Why are people talking this shite up?

I am not "talking this shite up" I am trying...really, really fucking hard...to look for some green shoots of recovery.
