FA cup 4th qualifying round draw - AFC Sudbury v Dartford Sat 16 Oct 2021 KO 3pm

[The Futures White]

Who wants to play Colchester Utd at home anyway!!

[BAWArmy]

Would've been a good draw that, shame.

[The 5th Searcher]

Colchester are not in a good way at the moment and are struggling near the bottom of League 2.
Would’ve been a very good opportunity for us to advance, not now though .

[The Duke]

Time to draw a line under it , dont want to hear a load of excuses eg crap ref , Bonner unfair red card , Sudbury time wasting etc as no point in beating ourselves up as we LOST , the important thing is that the team are up for the Chelmsford game on Monday night 25th October , traditionally a tough fixture and would be great to go there and get 3pts

Hopefully Kingy keeps his post match comments very brief and gets his true feelings through to the team within the 4 walls !!!!!!!!!!!!

[BRASSNECK]

Sudbury are the lowest ranked team left in the cup.

[Sleightly Deceptive]

Sudbury are the lowest ranked team left in the cup.

One of three Tier 8 clubs left in it.

Although we had plenty of possession all game we didn't seem to move the ball as quickly as our previous games and unusually made a few wayward passes/crosses.
Really disappointed we never progressed but to get things into perspective we are in the middle of October and it's our first defeat of the season, probably more annoying though because it's a game 9 times out of 10 i feel we would win and not where i thought our unbeaten record would go.
I'm sure the players are hurting as much as us and looking to get back on track at Chelmsford where it will be good if we travel in large numbers again and continue to show our support. I thought we probably had around half the crowd yesterday which was very good.

Not as many candidates for MOTM this week but for me it was between Noor and Jernade, with Jernade just edging it.

Looking forward to Steve's post match interview as they are always informative and honest, will be very interested to hear his thoughts on the game.

I'll be at Brentwood Tuesday as it's an important game for some players to get much needed minutes.

[ozymandias]

Reading this and the NLP it sounds as if we were fairly beaten. Never mind the shernanighans after. What annoys me most is the ability Tom has of getting bookings.
I'm sure that King will give them a hard time.
We are not unbeatable and I'm sure we will have a response from the team in the next game.
Shame as I feel we would/could have beaten Colchester.

[Top Cat]

We lost because the team lost their discipline . First half we dominated the game and were in complete control . Second half there was a lack of concentration that cost us their equaliser ,and after Toms sending off ; and us not clearing our lines for their second , our fate was sealed .
I think SK would more or less say the same in his interview ?

Looks like the Manager of the Month curse struck again!

[The Duke]

No post Match interview with Kingy , maybe thinks it best he swerves this ????

Maybe it will be a joint post match interview combined with next pre game one (Chelmsford)????????
We have done that a few times.

I am certain though that Kingy wouldn't (or needs to) swerve anything as he's always honest in his interviews.

Not as bad as the NLN Manager of the month - the Curzon Ashton boss has been sacked!!

Geez Duke why would you even write that? Can't we just cut the man some slack?We've had a fantastic start and have an amazing squad but surely we have to accept that occasionally things will go awry. It must be so disheartening to see such comments.

Are you serious, this forum has well laid into previous managers they did not like like, there was no such love then. Hypocrisy.

Bottom line is the team failed dismally and against the easiest opponents they could have had, if the manager says the buck stops with him, let him have it, he failed big time because this team goes missing when it matters - it doesn't bode well for the play-offs again.

Sugar coat it all you want but you can't deny what has gone before.

[Sleightly Deceptive]

There won’t be need for play-offs.

[The Duke]

I wasnt having a pop at Kingy I just thought that maybe he couldnt add anything to the poor performance and best he kept his thoughts to himself , What did you want him to say ???????????????
