Clamour for Hayes to be MOTM surely says something about the team selection? I remember Borrow’em Wood getting through 50-odd players in the Ryman Prem days which we all found equal parts funny and shocking...
Surely we can’t have managed to amass 64 this season, that would be six players in each position!?

Very disappointing result especially after last weeks win over Bill & Ricky when we played some decent football. I got the feeling it was going to be one of those days when Elliot seemed to change his mind in his penalty run up and instead of hammering the ball tried to be clever and place it in the bottom corner. Surprised Billy Crook didn't get on and would have had Haysie in the starting line up but what do I know!

After the awful display i can't see any neutrals wanting to watch us again this season unless we play there team.
That was a truly diabolical performance from us.

I hope our accountants are keeping an eye on our wage bill because all the players King is signing would be on bigger wages than the players he has unloaded and obviously the players signed would be getting higher wages with us than their previous club.
I would suggest that the minimum requirement for this league season now is to make the play offs.

It wasn’t good at all. Josh Hill played pass after pass straight to their team constantly. His distribution was awful. Vint and Hill had no organisation between them at all. Big gaps in the middle they were just strolling through at ease. Tom B would have this organised from the start.
Team as a whole didn’t perform well, too many off days from too many. Imo I wanted Brown to start and get him running at them. Midfield was 2nd best most the game.
Mom for me was Ryan Hayes. If he can perform like that week in and out and king can get that out of him he should start, consistently though.
Poor all round but who am I to question King, it’s just my opinions.

Sounds like I missed a corker. What's with Hill's poor passing, He's been doing that all season. Two more new players, much expected. A bit disappointed when I heard we had gone a goal down and eventually lost. But there you go.

I suspect he doesn't and is purely guessing based on no facts whatsoever.
What i do know is Steve King has very good contacts and can attract players and our board will only pay what they can afford so for me it's not a concern.

Exactly what everybody said prior to his joining. With his ability and as you say contacts we will be going places.

A very poor performance, very little to be pleased about. About the only comfort was that McQueen is looking better with each game
Kingy is trying lots of players, he has to, and performances like this are bound to happen. However hill and vint made it very easy for the team not to function as they gave the ball away almost every time the had it
