I was there and to say that we were battered is way off the mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 3 minutes ago, wiseowl said: He said flattered to be fair. That is simply not true. Game over at half time, probably after 34 mins. All on them to get a goal, we just simply picked them off. We could have had more goals 2nd half. Pathetic that we can win an away game in such fashion and still get criticism. I watched the game, no chance we were ever in danger of not winning it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a great win, but we were more than a little bit fortunate... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaddyexile84 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 At the risk of doing a BP1960 Im leaving here now. Far to toxic and full of BS. Shame as it used to be a good place. I go into hospital on Friday so have bigger issues to deal with. Good luck all, we all want the same thing (most of us).

In any ordered system [if this place ever was] entropy will raise its ugly head. It's human nature.

Jeffers not knowing what was happening and Unsy’s final words being- Franny! Let’s bounce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maidstone and Nottingham County were pretty much wins too, then we've got two draws (Chester and Peterbrough) that we ended up winning on pens and that's before we even talk about the 1-1 at Maidenhead that we were told we would definitely have lost earlier in the season. So that makes it 7 and a half wins in 20 and all of a sudden doesn't look too bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the pod lads have said similar but It is about changing the culture of negativity around the club, fans have to play their part in that, just saying oh win some football matches then isn't enough.

I said to Andy, and I’ll say the same to you. No football clubs fans, in the history of football stay positive and encouraging when it’s absolute dross and you lose most weeks. When we win- the noise stops. When we lose - people moan. But as always- you know all this. . . . . . . if we did start winning, and the same fans started talking about promotion- you’d be on here like greyhound to tell us all how deluded we are.

I’ve actually forgotten what supporting a successful club feels like….I’ve been watching absolute dross for so long I don’t even get excited on the rare occasions that we score a goal!! Almost 30 years of absolute shite and still no signs of any improvement on the pitch. It’s been that long now, If we ever get up around the top of the league it will be positively orgasmic!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
