Compared to income from players sold over the last five years, it definitely is not good enough.

Manning is doing better than I expected. Perhaps the Lansdowns are thinking the same.

Even with a front seat, Steve is taking us nowhere

Fair point ?

There have been better players sold at half time. Cornick is showing he is as bad as Diony. The whole team are dreadful tonight though.

I have been his biggest critic but today he did very well and proved he can be a decent player.

Agree, I thought Tanner did well.

If only we had a Gerry Gow now, fabulous midfielder but he would probably not fit the soft rules that the game have now.

A corrupt country hosting a corrupt organised competition, anything can happen

Your last sentence is spot on.

I would say he needs more than a rest. Bentley is vastly overrated IMO. I also believe he has poor defenders in front of him but a lot of goals conceded are preventable if we had a keeper that is better than Bentley. Doing star jumps and punching the ball with both fists don’t do it for me, commanding the area and catching the ball is a better attribute in my book.

IMO Bentley is an average goalkeeper.

A decent goalkeeper would have saved that header.

Agree, 3 clean sheets is definitely a positive and great to see an attacking attitude, but we must reduce the amount of goals we concede as it is putting extra pressure on our strikers.

1 in 3 games we have conceded 3 goals, that is a poor ratio. We must improve the defending if we have ambitions of a top 6 finish.

Naismith is not the only liability at the back. I agree, going forward we look good.

I think you may be right. I see Jason Ewell very active in the technical area. It could be Jason having a big impact on Conway and Wells performance of late.

Tommy looks class, he is quick, strong and a menace for any defence. I think he has a bright future.

It is not just his distribution letting him down. He does star jumps on crosses rather than commanding his area and most cross shots from both left and right tends to go past him. Overrated IMO.

Then why not employ defenders and midfielders who can deliver corners

Bentley is definitely overrated.

For me, he is not the scapegoat but has been one of our poorest performers in recent times.

I was not there today, so I can’t be too critical. What stands out for me is that we have lost 2 games from being in front in both games.

It’s quite concerning that we played well and lost against a side who people perceive to be average. How are we going to fare against more fancied sides?

Exactly, need to take the chances.
