Another last minute loss. We are going down.

Keep on conceding in injury time. That's happened against Barnet, York, Forest Green, Eastleigh and Southend. The points dropped in injury time get us into mid table safety.
Are this mob fit enough to play 90 minutes? Doesn't seem like it to me.

Don’t think it’s fitness they’re just not good enough footballers, this is down to abysmal mismanagement from top to bottom at the club. Going down is the least of our problems, if this lot remain in charge we could end up bust or playing in the Essex senior league. Shambles. Underdog Out.

Why sign another defender need a prolific striker to put the ball in the net - 10 cup final games left to stay up!

No striker will save us when the clueless dickhead that we have as a manager wants to play for a 0-0. He’s the problem. I was no fan of Strevs as a manager but if he was still here we would not be staring relegation in the eye like this. Club is run by morons and it’s up to us fans to get them out.

Game management is just another area where we are poorly coached.

If we do somehow have a miracle and manage to stay up, it will be purely because there's 4 teams who are even more sh1t than us

To be fair we were desparately unlucky to walk out of the Hive with that loss early doors feel a minimum a draw well warranted, but it still seems we are so light up front and that surely was our achilles heel again, the work rate at the back today was very good and in Keeper Jones at least four brilliant stunning saves that kept us well in it but it don't take away now that the way its looking with so many tough games in line have we gotta rely on other teams beating the s**t out of whats below us sadly coz doubt were get out of it on our own making!

What’s also infuriating is we like to say we have one of the best attackers in the league yet he has been anonymous for ages. How are we so toothless in attack with the players that we have? Dion will go to league one next year, but he is lucky that his reputation from earlier in the season has secured him that move. His current form would have him off to Halifax next season

Dion has been carrying injuries for months. If we weren't so desperate I doubt he'd have played so much. Rushed him back once again to try to drag us back into the Woking game, then had to go off at half time in the next game against Oldham. Fair play to the guy that he's willing to risk himself considering he's a loan player and I believe a free agent in summer.

Very disappointing to concede such a late goal against a team with such an impressive home record. Most other results of teams around us in the league went in our favour and looking at a lot of remaining fixtures a lot of struggling teams playing each other including some of our fixtures so anything can happen.

Your clutching at straws Lewis, we’re going down!
If we couldn’t beat sh1te like Boston and Braintree what makes you think we can get a result against anyone else?

Too right mate, I think Rees was playing quite way back yesterday for most of the game and I just don't see Umerah being fully effective this term especially on his own most of the time, as soon as the Fulham loanee came on we could see the difference in shape. Quicker we see Harry Phipps and even LIngy back possibly a slight saving grace. I think quick signing Michael Hector seemed to be in a good command of our defenders yesterday as a good positive with Oscar playing off key their wingers well and disbanding a few threats. Simply we don't sort up front out, scoring more than the odd goal and holding it out in extra time We've had it and will be welcoming Chippenham Town and Bath City rather soon!

Boston won 3-0 tonight...

I thought they were dead and buried a few weeks ago so apart from Ebbsfleet there appears to be eight teams including us scrapping to avoid relegation.
A very nervous end to the season.
