Title: Brackley Town : match thread
Post by: taxi Phil on April 06, 2017, 10:02:08 AM
So....with nothing at stake, do we give the fringe players their chance to shine ? Or is it same old, same old ?

I think players like Taylor will be given more match experience.

Are there any other forwards we can try? Scoring goals has been one of the major issues this season thus far.

We could maybe give Darius Palma a few more games. He looks quite tricky from what I've seen of him and could do with more experience

I reckon we'll go down to a narrow defeat against let's be fair to them a village outfit with a few quid literally in the middle of nowhere.

We've been relegated with one full month to spare to the HFS Loans League it's an utter embarrassment and disgrace and no doubt Matt Doughty will have some kind of excuse at 5pm tomorrow night but the lack of pride they have in the shirt is disgusting.

This will be the first game I have been able to attend since the Home game v Salford.

As for the score etc? I haven't a clue really

First half we killed them. The keeper made a great save from Reeves and clee should have scored.

Second half they were miles better. We never got going until the game was over.

Negatives were Lawrie, who was dreadful and Patterson,Heathhcote and McWilliams who were parcel.

Positives were Taylor, who was great for 60 then ran out of steam and Palma who showed more than glimpses.

I thought we played well in the first half, but in the second half we were poor. What I do not understand is how at half time you get the team talk with the manager, and then come out and play a lot worse like we did yesterday.

This is unlike me to comment negatively, but the shambles in the second half was the last thing we needed. From that I can judge that maybe Matt/Robbie are losing support from the players or are losing the dressing room. I don't expect or would be surprised to see Damien still here next season. I now just want this wretched season to be over, but I will still go the remaining home games because I am a fan (long suffering now). I am bemused by what has happened to our club, whatever and whoever is at fault, things have got to change very soon. Whatever happens during the close season, has got to be only for the benefit of the club. I am worried now that we are going to lose long term supporters, many I have known for many years now who I enjoy chatting to at the games; and many more who were not present yesterday. I cannot blame them for staying away, but yesterday I felt that from the second half everybody had had enough; and we were just wasting our leisure time supporting the team yesterday.

So sad to see, and even more witness the fight had gone from a once great club for a fabulous non league history. Come on Matt, Robbie and the team, we deserved better than that 2nd half yesterday. I walked out a few minutes from the end yesterday straight after their third goal, and of course missed our goal typically. It is a long long time since I have done anything like that but that 2nd half was too painful.

From the board downwards, please get it right for next season or I fear I will be joining others away from the ground if this continues. I do accept that football teams have their ups and downs, but not that my team I have supported for 42 seasons are going to further their slide into next season as well.

Whoever runs the club and manages it next season, and more importantly plays for the club, do it with heart and for the love of the club; and match how we all support it. And if you cant play like that, go.

I keep thinking back to 1992 when Gerry Quinn came in and we essentially started afresh, with the team and backroom staff unrecognisable, the sleeves rolled up and some new energy around the place. We ultimately had a decent season all things considered. There was a lot of graft and the spirit was there to see.

Its different in many ways of course; league, budget etc. But I think to get the focus and energy back, I would be quite happy to see a mass clearout and back to square one as we did then. Not settling for 10th next season btw!

There's going to be competiitve next season ,Stafford should have some money as they have just seen a player move on to Leicester also Hednesford had a player move to Arsenal not long ago add to that Stourbridge if they don't go up should be strong with cup run money. It will be far from easy.
