I hope Kingy doesn't read the forums, must be super demoralising knowing you're competing at the right end of the table yet people still want a change...

King is the right man for the job imo, he just got yesterday horribly wrong.

Porter was more interested in moaning at the ref and rolling around on the ground , dont think Luke Allen , Danny L ,Ade or Jake did much during the game and it should have been their chance to stake a claim for a starting place in the play-offs.

We missed Murtagh in midfield and it seems he will miss the paly offs as well Not sure why Wilks and Wynter are not playing maybe injuries

Admittedly Murtagh's absence was enforced but 6 changes in my opinion was a bit much. Leaving three of Saturday's goal scorers on the bench was somewhat baffling but even so the team selected should have been good enough to beat Braintree. However, with so many below par performances on the pitch we got what we deserved and SK has to take some of the blame for that as well as the players. Perhaps SK will think twice about making so many changes in the future but somehow I doubt it. In my opinion I think that we should have concentrated on getting 3 points yesterday rather than having one eye on the Eastbourne match and the play offs. If we had won yesterday and Ebbsfleet had lost we would have secured 3rd place. As things stand and results don't go our way next weekend we could end up in 5th place and having to play away in the play offs. Hopefully we can get a win at Eastbourne and pray the Chelmsford do us a favour at Ebbsfleet.

Not just yesterday has he come to our rescue. I guess we all have a player we ‘love to hate’ and Tom may be Ozy’s. But I don’t get it. It’s way off the mark in my humble opinion. We need more players like Tom who wear the badge with pride and know how to get in the referee’s face. He a true leader and I liken him to Tony Adams.

Wilksy is recovering from a slight niggle I understand.

5th still gives you a home playoff against 6th place.

Duke, I'm not questioning Tom's quality as a player, especially Saturday. other players were FAR worse. and it is just my opinion that Tom shouldn't be around next season.
DartfordHero, another season!1 I do hope not.
Sleightly 'love to hate' !! Tom has been enormous for this club. I'm saying he's 'old hat' and needs to go.
Kentc, I said half a yard, not a yard.
M1, I haven't a clue about Chess, nor it seems Tom Bonner. As said, this is MY opinion on the man. But then I loved Lee Noble also but even he knew he had to go in the end.
Spike, I'll let it go now.
Steve, Nice advert and I do wear glasses at the game, maybe I should stop going to Visionexpress.
Let's see if we can sort the crap performance out before the play-off's and hopefully I will be proved wrong.
What fun we have.
