Re: Zakuani
Give the bloke a chance. Been leaking goals all season, our defence is shite. There’s only about 3 players in our team I care if I ever see again. Taylor’s players are relegation players. 8th best defence in the league, defending has not really been the main issue this season. Yes one too many from...

Re: Ebbsfleet Away
I think we have the players to play 3 at the back, and I hear Deering is back tomorrow, so I’d go: Justham Wright Manny Croll Eletheriou McQueen Robinson Deering Stephenson Kandi House Go back to the system we had when we were successful last season, with two runners in a midfield three. Ideally Gor...

Re: GARRY HILL
After starting with 5 defenders yesterday, it’s easy to criticise Taylor as negative. Of course, for yesterday this is a valid criticism. But actually, the team selection of late has been positive. Yet we’re still failing miserably in front of goal and conceding silly goals. This shows a massive fai...

Re: Harrogate Home
Gordon should be ahead of Wood in the pecking order for sure, but I thought Wood played okay today, had a few shaky moments but wasn’t woeful. Once we addressed the overload on our left hand side in the second half by taking Luque off and putting McQueen there, we seemed relatively comfortable. He’s...

Re: Are the owners aware ?
We were getting overrun in the midfield tonight so I see why the changes were made, but I do worry what being brought off after half hour will do for both Luque and Dobson’s confidence long-term (both of who have shown glimpses of quality). Could have changed the system for the remaining 15 minutes ...

Re: Woking Home
Largely agree with Lee. Despite having a supposedly superior squad to last season Taylor is still setting us up to nullify the opposition rather than play to our strengths. I’m hoping yesterday’s performance was just a case of new players not gelling rather than a sign of things to come. Criticising...

Re: Barrow
Yesterday was dreadful. We sat off Barrow, who although are a decent footballing side, are only 8 points above us. That comes from the management ultimately. Like Gillingham fans warned us, watching a team under Taylor has proven to be tedious and boring on so many occasions this season. The worryin...

Re: Chesterfield
The trouble with Taylor is, it seems as if he tries to cater for the strengths of other teams with his team selection every game. Sometimes, we just need to be positive. I don’t think there’s ever a need for Wright, Loft and Robinson in the same team. I get that we aren’t blessed with a plethora of ...

Re: Maidenhead
Clearly, McQueen was poor last night. But in fairness, Maidenhead doubled up on him most times he received the ball and he didn’t have enough options to offload it. He’s inconsistent, but in my opinion, he’s had a decent season for us. Some posts on here about him are way too reactive after one poor...

Re: Your line-up v Sutton?
Barring the first 20 minutes or so, one of the best performances of the season. Limited Sutton to minimal chances, and played some lovely football at times. Regarding Adeloye, yes he is not the best finisher, but now we have Wilkinson, the onus is not on him as much to be our main goalscorer. He’s c...

Re: Taylor in Taylor Out
All this is pointless as they signed two year contracts when they came on board as far as I am aware. We are where we are despite starting with pretty close to nothing last summer. Taylor has attracted a number of players because of his name and contacts, and the new owners appear to like him. Yes ...

Re: Taylor in Taylor Out
I’d say it would be a mistake if we have offered Taylor and Harris new deals before securing safety. That’s not because I necessarily want them to leave, but I just don’t think it makes sense to keep a management team on that could oversee us getting relegated. In terms of the job done by Taylor and...

Re: John Still
i think my message to everyone re john still- is " dont look back in anger. " We need to look at it like this. - without JS and the league 1 days - the cup runs and the league two and a higher profile- when the USA guys came in we had a heritage to show them . to say we took 30,000 to wem...

Re: Who`s eating their words now ?
At the time, I don’t think it was outrageous to suggest that Taylor was failing at his job and we looked doomed. Despite the budget, his recruitment still failed in many areas at the start of the season (Davey, Wright, Reynolds, Mullings, Donovan etc.) However, ever since that Harrogate game and the...
