[Holy Joe]

Walker goes close from tight angle - corner

 

[Holy Joe]

Crowther kicked in the head - high foot or head low?

 

[Holy Joe]

One of ours booked trying to persuade ref it was a pen

Crowther kicked in the head - high foot or head low?

I'd take it if given but he was diving low and I'd kick off if it was given against us

 

[SHRIMPERPETER]

And we thought last weeks ref was crap!!!!

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

Good grief, we are now below Tamworth in the live table!

 

[Linda Loan Shark]

Good grief, we are now below Tamworth in the live table!

And two points above the relegation places. If we keep pushing we should hopefully salvage a point

 

[Barling Magna]

Corner to us..... too long.

 

[mark387]

There is little I hate more in the modern game than playing back to goalkeeper/defence killing off an attack and having to start from scratch

 

[Harry Bullocks]

16th , hopefully the only way is up

Don't say that. It's one of the things we're good at.

Still too many negative passes across the back line. Maidenhead will let us do this all afternoon.

It's the way the games going, agree, awful

 

[Tony Allen]

on paper we have some good players but we don't seem to have a good team at the moment

 

[gatecrasher]

The first 25 seconds was the only real attacking intent I've seen, absolue crab ball AGAIN

 

[duncan bulgaria]

Maidenhead are doing a number in us , they look fitter , more organised and up for the fight , we are so predictable

 

[seves]

I so wanna be optimistic and desperately wanna see Maher succeed, but around the oppo box we're devoid of ideas, Moncur who we expected more from included, don't look like scoring

 

[davewebbsbrain]

Has to be the worst ref I've seen in a very long time

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

And we thought last weeks ref was crap!!!!

Refs fault national leagues fault but never our fault

 

[palexander]

If we continue to struggle this season, no way will crowd stand for this possession football from Maher. It will draw boos as its awful and that will be that for Maher IMO.

Absolutely awful to watch. The amount of times we've been around the box and ends up back at CB or keeper. You can just tell the players body language they dont want to be the one to go back, but obviously way Maher drills it into them.

All the time we were doing ok, think fans put up with it, but our squad is too good to be so negative.
