Haringey Borough (FAT) home 19 Dec

[mickw]

Wynter went about his work well today, breaking play up and rarely misplacing a pass - I'm afraid I can't say the same for anyone else.
Please don't say we can concentrate on the league now - I love a cup run and we haven't had much to shout about in that department for quite a while.
What a miserable Christmas in prospect now.

Very disappointed,
Cannot understand why we struggle with the quality we have at this club.
Totally bemused !!. I KNOW that
We have NO divine right .....today we had
NO divine clue.

Poor all round generally today. Don’t give me,”they cause a real threat having beaten Eastbourne on Tuesday night”. Credit to them, and yes they were organised as the back, but we switched off defensively and gifted them the tie. We should be beating teams like that!

We have to sort out our striking frailties. Never looked like scoring again today. Gave the ball away too often in midfield and defensively held firm until switching off for their goal...chaps, it’s a 90 minute game!!

On a positive note, L’Ghoul looked very useful and a fantastic acquisition.

Summary...we need strikers that score us goals, simple!!

Got what we deserved and agree all these changes can't be good

Agreed Don. The problem with all the changes in personnel and formation virtually every match, is that we look like we are starting from scratch every week! I know Kingy loves tinkering but surely we need a bit of stability so the players have a chance to settle ?

I'm still confident that Kingy is the right man for the job but the players needs to step up for him.... and soon!

You're acting like we're struggling and not getting anywhere. We're 2nd in the league and taking into account last season too how can anyone not be confident King is the right man?

We didn't deserve anything from this game, and sadly, that is exactly what we got - nothing. So many stray balls, loose passes and again, really not making their keeper work at all. I suppose one advantage is that there will be no further cup games in a shortened season to interfere with our league fixtures. Nevertheless. bitterly disappointed to be out of the Trophy.

Steve King commented prior to the game that Haringey would be a difficult game, but that thinking didn't seem to reach the players at all and perhaps thought it was just a matter of turning up! However, I have seen too many teams from a lower pull off 'surprises' when playing higher level opposition and I include Marine, beating Havant and Waterlooville and Brackley Town taking Tranmere all the way until a late Tranmere winner.

All credit to Haringey, and good luck to them in the next round.

Have to say I enjoyed the commentary of Groomy and Gary in todays game. Thanks guys. Also thought the referee had a fair game too.

Happy Christmas to all our posters and supporters. Hope to be tuning into the Boxing Day game against Ebbsfleet, who went down 5-2 at Dagenham today.

Well said Pete, a very disappointing day all round, but I agree that the commentary guys were excellent today.

And a Happy Christmas to you too. Let's hope that 2021 sees an improvement for us all on so many levels... outside football mainly!

Erm.....I believe we have a Kent Senior Cup game Tuesday v Hamlet!!

[Home And Away]

Not Kent. London senior cup

[Gin and vomit]

Goes without saying that goalscoring is the problem. Such a lack of chances being created I'm not sure Calvert-Lewin would have scored today!
