I'd imagine that he replies to your negative, whingeing, posts because that's what they are, where it seems like you're just waiting to have a dig about Speakman, who has recruited some brilliant players, deliberately ignoring anything good I'm exaggerating, but I've wondered about which is your team 'cos you don't seem to want to support S.A.F.C. Try to understand why Chunks, and others, get upset about your negativity . . . . try seeing things from the other side, and maybe try looking for positives
Maybe time for Bailey Wright to come back in. We can't seen to win a header from a set piece unless its Danny Baath and he can't win them all. We miss Stewart as much for this as we do up the pitch in my opinion. With hindsight we are all experts maybe we should have changed to stiffen up in the 2nd half but I was thinking get a third and kill it. Burnley were decent no more they got momentum from the early goal second half and ran with it while our young lads had no answer. Still think we will finish mid table but would like a bit of experience brought in in January but not expecting it with our recruitment model.
The second half well we Sent out the message straight away with that really sloppy short corner which ultimately led to them coming down the field. That's not the only reason but it set a tone

Always think with the majority if you don't want to be an outcast on this board. They'll all start chipping away at you now.
Well I have to say I was stunned at that poor 2nd half. I agree with some on here that Mowbray was given a lesson today but in his defence they have a better quality of squad with a lot more experience to choose from. That is a worry for me our lack of genuine experience in the team and lack of physicality in the middle of the park. I don’t quite understand his substitutions it seems quite a scattergun approach at times which seems to make us a lot more disjointed than before the subs. I didnt understand the taking off of Evans he’s not brilliant but he breaks things up and gives the others the ball to pass, keeps us ticking over. To many times we gave the ball away with poor cross field passes which they won and immediately we were back under pressure. I thought Hume did ok but tired 2nd half and maybe Bailey Wright into the back with Onien going to full back. Anyway a tough day a good 1st half but ultimately we were beaten by a better more experienced side who will be close to going up this season. On we go to Luton which will be interesting to see how we react. Time for a large malt or two. Keep the faith lads and lasses .
Dunno how you lose a game 2-4 when your 2-0 up at half time. Got to question the manager here. Bottom 3 waits. Bart
We were sitting right next to the home dugout today and I saw a different side to the game that I've never really saw before in regard to the manager's view. Mowbray was going off with Hume in the first half about not pushing forward enough and Cirkin in the second. Company saw what he was doing and then with his second half sub and the other wide player just told them to stay out wide and behind the full backs and that was the out ball every time with runners from midfield supporting the main striker. Thought Pritchard didn't have that good a game today and was at fault got not closing down for the cross for the second goal. I would've left Evans on and probably took Dan Neil off instead. Decent 1st half but seriously poor second but it didn't really spoil the grandson's day and he wants to go back!
My mam, dad, aunty and my boy I managed to take the photo. It was mam's first ever time at the SOL and she admitted it was emotional as she walked up and saw the pitch for the first time. Mind you she also asked why we sing songs so fast
