Only just recovered enough to post. How we contrived to lose today is beyond me. 1st half there was only one team in it and it wasn,t Chester.
We were so on top it was only a matter of time before we scored. I counted 10 corners to us only 1 for Chester and had we been 2 or 3 ahead it
would have...
With 2 suspended and 3 loanees signed in the last 24hrs I have no idea what shape or team we will start with. Will either be a resounding win or loss, but following Braintree this season has always been a roller coaster ride.
We were awful tonight even before the sending off. Dagenham really weren,t that good IMO, much depends on Hawkins finding his scoring boots again if they are to make the play offs.
13 points out of 15 in our last 5 away games. As I said earlier if we can get similar results at home we can still be here next season. That would be 7 seasons at this level. Not bad for a "pub team from Essex"!
Had us written off earlier when Hakan became manager, but hopefully I was wrong as we are picking up good points away from home.
However our home record ATM is pants. If we can begin to improve at home then maybe we can still pull off a great escape.
5-2 not a fair reflection of our match at Millwalll. Stats show we had more goal attempts than them but unfortunately our makeshift defence let in 3 tap in goals for them from corners. Our 315 fans made more noise throughout the match than their 3000. Without us it would have been like a library.
Nah you're wrong DSL he scored a hat trick a couple of weeks ago in the Essex Senior Cup against Maldon & Tiptree. Thats about his current level although his goal today was well taken.
Poor estimate Sparrow, 40 on the coach plus several carloads. However many we were we made ourselves heard as you can hear/see on your highlights. Think the ref was your Guiseley moment re your disallowed goal, still cant see why it wasn,t given.
Out of the frying pan in to the fire. Not managed a team for 3 years and none at this level so I understand.
Goodbye all, its been great while it lasted.
Jamie must have known he had a mountain to climb when he took the job, but this is a results business and the table doesn,t lie.
Nonetheless can,t help but feel for him and his family as IMO we were showing signs of improvement particularly with our 2nd half performance against FGR yesterday...
