Not good is it? Seems pretty much the same as last year so far. Hurst is just not astute enough to build a good side with one of the best budgets in the league. We are solid is about the best i can muster. Can't see me rushing back to BP any time soon, which is a pity because i've been a loyal supporter for over 40 years.

Let the powers at the top decide . I know what I'm going to do after 53 years of supporting Town .
Dropping into this league was bad enough .

Now come on all you moaners, be fair. We knew it was going to be a tough game because PH told us it would be. No doubt he pressed home this message to the players in no uncertain terms, emphasising to LJL that the main job of a striker is to be the first line of defence.

After all Dover had only conceded 4 goals in their first 2 games. This was always going to be a tight match where one goal would prove indecisive. Fortunately for us our manager has tactical nous and selected a 5 man defence all of whom are capable of running 100m in 3 weeks. It was just unfortunate that we scored and this gave Dover new heart to come at us.

Oh I am sorry I wasn't there to see our gallant lads battle their way to a point against the Mighty Dover.

This place is going to be interesting tonight. Despite injuries etc I have to say the current situation is pretty poor and I've said for a long time, Hurst isn't the man for me. Don't think for a minute he'll go but things have to drastically change. He needs to stop being so bloody stubborn and take his finger out of his bottom, sharpish.

To be fair, we had a pretty bad pre-season too....

Your right , we were told that Hurst was trying out different systems . That didn't work either . Really don't know where we go from here , however with Gateshead on the near horizon thing will get clearer I hope , one way or another .

So if it wasn't for Macca we would have lost at home to Dover,

Ha ha ha! Like this one! :>)
My God, PH is the most boring manager we've had in my lifetime if not quite the worst!
