We play like we've got nothing in us away from home. 20 goals in 8 home games, 7 in 9 away games says it all. I don't understand why we always look so slow and laboured away. It's like all the life has been sucked out of them. What I do know is that it isn't good enough. We can talk about injuries b...

Injured.

Injuries or not, we can't keep having these games where we don't lay a glove on the opponent. Yeovil was the same. We have good players in most positions and are capable of scoring a lot of goals. But we have far too many off days and it was the same under Daryl beforehand. The injury situation has ...

Thought the decision to start Phipps and Hill instead of PK and Dion was frankly ridiculous. Having said that I would definitely have put Phipps in midfield instead of Hessenthaler. We got bullied by a big, strong, hard working but very cynical side for most of the game. They fully deserved their po...

They're a bad side with a couple of good players. Absolutely must win. Dion has had a very hard week so I'd be shocked if he can start today and Tuesday. Sounds like Phipps and Hess are both back. Some big calls for Strevs to make in midfield. We've tried several combinations but for me we cannot af...

They've got a handful of old pros who might be capable of raising their game for one last hurrah.

In reality though there's no excuse for anything other than a resounding win, injuries or not. The gulf in quality between these two levels is huge.

CM will continue to be a problem area I think. Remember we needed to recruit Akinola because we had no legs or ball carrying in there and he's out for a while. Based solely on what I've seen this season so far, Phipps has probably been our second best CM behind Akinola. If Easty returns soon I'd be ...

Thought we should've been out of sight before they scored. On another day it's 4-0 before they've even woken up. An incredibly frustrating side to play against especially after they equalised. Very similar to Gateshead in that respect except today we didn't take our chances to give them what they de...

Solihull seem like a relatively poor outfit this year. They've been hammered by some of the better sides and failed to beat or squeaked past some of the lesser ones. Having said that, you'd think inconsistent Wilko will be absolutely bang up for this today, and with Eastman out he could very easily ...

I can only assume the PL have agreed to throw some money in for this thing because I have no idea what else NL clubs have to gain from it. I would be shocked if we sell more than 500 tickets per game. It certainly isn't a money spinning glamour competition. Obviously on the PL side, they get competi...

Tough side to play against. They make the game quite tedious by keeping it amongst their back 4 for minutes on end, daring you to come and get it. It's a mental battle as much as anything else.

National League aren't famed for sense. In a couple of weeks, a number of clubs have to do 2 long haul Saturday/Tuesday away trips. We never get more than 1300 on a Tuesday night. Sutton tend to bring about 300. So maybe we'll scrape 1200. Sutton are no great shakes but without Akinola and presumabl...

It is worrying that a) we've played largely well without winning again and b) despite playing well we could have lost as the opponent had two decent chances. When we're on top we need to be more clinical. We constantly mess up the final pass or miss the target with our finishes. Rendall and Dion sho...

If Dion and Hill are out then I think we have to change shape. I'd also drop RGC and Morias.

I thought Umerah was meant to be our focal point but despite getting minutes at the back of pre season he's still yet to start. We're trying to shoehorn Morias into the side presumably in the hope that minutes will get him fit. To my mind he needs a weight cut and a couple of weeks in the gym before...
