Never believe in rotation.

Momentum has gone.

If players can’t start two games then we might aswell be part time.

Parky is way overthinking sh*t.

Killing us and we certainly do not have the quality in depth.

Not playing our best CB is a joke.

How far away is Ross ?

What is up with Amulazor?

Osborne has been great this season, but now you can tell he has a newborn. In need of a Maxi.

Southend had a run in the season on 14 players. All the teams are playing Tues and Sat.

Might have to dip into the loan market. We certainly should be recalling Donawa, which was a bizarre loan out.

Thanks Amsterdam! I'm blaming you for that! 😂😂
Seriously though, shocked by the self inflicted problems we've generated with switching about.
All the good tension I'd been holding in has dissipated and I can just settle back and enjoy us being top half. 🙄😒

I honestly don't know where to start with that.

I am beginning to sound like a broken record on the whole "the defence looks completely s*** without Baines" thing. Has Parky been tapped up by one of our rivals or something?

Our squad players are not of the standard of our first 11. We all know our first 11! Why the f*** is the manager mucking about with it. Resting Marriott? Jesus wept.

I don't know where we go from here. It feels like we have shot ourselves in the foot - both feet actually. Are we afraid of going up?

What is the matter with Alex Newby? Has he fallen out with someone? I'm genuinely baffled.

Comfortably our worst performance of the season to date, and you now wouldn't be at all surprised if that by the time that we play our next fixture at the JDS, it will be on the back of five consecutive defeats. Our impetus appears to have evaporated.

Relentlessly ponderous, pedestrian and utterly predictable. Losing 3-1 at home and we are still stroking the ball around in our own half as if we were 3-1 up. No apparent ability or plan to change the pattern of the game.

I don't recall us mustering even a single shot on target during that second half.

As others have stated within this thread, why on earth do we persist in starting without our best defender, Lewis Baines?

Fair play to Maidenhead, who worked tirelessly and took their chances. Nonetheless, they must have been astonished by just how inept we were.

A painful experience. Like listening to a seven-inch single being played at 33+1⁄3 rpm.

It says it all when a couple of dozen on the open end outshout almost 2,200 home fans throughout the second half .Can't find a single positive from today and even some other results going our way barely seems to matter after that performance . It's obvious only our very best starting eleven can rescue our play off push and just as obvious our squad isn't strong enough in depth . New blood needed to reinvigorate us.

Other positives....
Did not get wet.
Pitch held up....especially goal area we kicking towards.
An amusing (sometimes annoying) bunch of young jocks....no idea what that was about.

Just watched Parkys interview.. in fairness he didn’t try to blag it he said we were poor today in all departments. Let’s just hope it turns back round to where it’s been for most of the season, like others, I do believe once Ethan returns things will pick up again.

There’s a few that are putting themselves on the release list for the summer

How Roscoe gets a start ahead of Baines honestly baffles me. Us fans on here established Cooper and Baines are the best CB pairing so why the f**k does PP tinker with it.

Wilson isn’t NL standard yet, he should go to Chorley and we have Donowa back.

We are in serious trouble of our season being over after the next couple of games, CCC will be off in the summer too.

‘Please bring a mate to the games’ said Parky. Play your best XI and we might do you arrogant man

When the players came over for a drink during a break in play there was noticeably no passion from the management or players. Poor body language all round.  As if they've given up or just so tired

The positive is the result barely dented our playoff chances.

The negative is that performance (& the last 2) have severely dented our playoff chances.

If we lose the next two (away), and we easily could, hope will surely start to fade. It already has for me 😕
You never should write off the Supers though!
Come on you Super Robins make us believe again! 🇦🇹🤞

Two weeks ago we were talking about a realistic chance of  finishing second or third. Top seven is still on the cards and in our own hands
