With everything going on at the club at the moment, I really don’t care how well we play today a scrappy boring game that we come away with three points would be just what we need at the end of a mystifying week.

Also hoping Dion along with Phipps are coming back from injury and may be in the squad.

Think I'd rather just see a ton of effort all round. Dunno how he's gonna pick the team today, play the new players give them a chance to shine.

Seen the team and cannot understand Rutherford only on the bench as he gives so much to the team and Rendell selected at right back now we have a left footed player in Clayton at left back.

It’s easy to understand, we have an inept manager. 4 losses out of 4 later. Race to the bottom of the form table.

Much better I thought but how Rendall gets in the starting lineup I don't know. Apart from a big throw he's pants. All the newbies put in a decent shift and injected a bit of life and urgency into our game. Goalkeeper Harvey I thought had a good game, shame about the rebound but at least he got to it.

Yes much better.

I couldn't make the game today but listened to the commentary, it certainly sounded a lot more promising and should have won the game. How Rutherford doesn't get into the team instead of Rendall I do not understand.

Better, but we didn't win. Who are we going to beat?

Harvey very solid, pen save was excellent. Easty and PK totally untroubled. As mentioned Rendall once again very erratic. Clayton I thought looked quite shaky defensively but delivered a few decent crosses.

Probably about the best game I can recall Rees having as a deeper midfielder, often the game seems to bypass him but today he was centre of everything. Remy very unlucky off the post but I'm a little disappointed that he didn't do more considering he seemed to have total freedom to get crosses in. He looked most likely to create something for us - just keep demanding the ball and keep going at them. But definitely a step in the right direction.

Subs absolutely baffling for me. At least Khaleel looked promising.

Got to beat Woking or Fylde now, as I don't see us getting anything from the two after that.

Two things today that left me very optimistic: Never seen it before but at around 1.30 up in the top bar Our Gaffer giving us a fairly well informed talk on the 'sudden crisis' and to his and his players determination to move it up a gear and come what 5 oclock walking away from Victoria Road felt they certainly did that and fairly unlucky not to bag a deserved win. I also thought that new No.15 I believe the Fulham loanee looked really useful.

As said earlier I just can’t see where the next win is coming from but it really needs to be Tuesday. Thought we played well yesterday but just couldn’t get that second goal when on top at 1-0, without Dion this side lacks any real quality just lots of huff and puff.

4 without a win since his appointment and 1 win in 6 in total and that was against Ebbslfeet, needs to turnaround quickly or he might get sacked in front of his family.

Three new players given a run out yesterday has anyone any opinions as to how they did?

Clayton I thought was defensively suspect. His man got several crosses into our box without much pressure. However his natural left foot gave us balance and he put in some decent deliveries. Would persevere with him.

Loupalo-Bi did quite well, linked with Umerah and Rees, got a couple of shots off and forced a good save. Seems to have a good attitude and work rate.

Khaleel looked much better in a more natural advanced CM position, showed great first touch, crisp passing, and lovely footwork to engineer himself a chance. Would be looking for a way to start him.

Sounds promising.
