Well that about wraps it up for this season. Sack Jones? - we're lumbered with his useless players for the rest of this season. Keep Jones? - (see above). Billionaire "investors" aka money-lenders - you've been had by SE7, and so have we.
In his post match interviews, Jones is talking about how we didn’t “over run” the opposition today and get in their faces. How about we play some football ??
The thing that concerns me is the poor standard of the players we have brought in . Managers / tactics / formations can change, but all of us on 606 pointed out in the Summer the lack of goal threat & creativity & pace in this assembled squad, and that’s precisely how it has turned out. Craven WUM’s like Hawtrey (Seriously Red) will no doubt pipe up with “Miles is back soon” zzzzzz but you still have to have players who can pass and cross the ball to him. Jones is clearly here for the season as a minimum, but we could be cut adrift of the play offs by January when we have the chance to sign the creative players we should have signed this Summer.
We can't point the finger at Andy Scott, this is NJ's team. I, and I think the rest of us, were pleased when it became clear that NJ had the final say on recruitment, so it's disappointing that if anything it's even worse now, apart from Edwards.
I had a feeling we would lose the game and we didn’t disappoint. No chance of going up. Over at Orient l have to say that they looked like the team near the top end. Wrexham were absolute pony first half with Dobbo leading the way in an error strewn performance. They came into the game last half hour but Leyton Orient should have won this with the chances they had although Wrexham hit the post late first half. Both looked like mid table teams which is likely where they’ll end up. All in all a good day out, nice food and beer.
Football fans and social media, ffs. We need to stick with Jones and see how things pan out. What happens, we bring in another manager and his first six games are s*** so do we get rid of him?
Says the fan who threatened Karel Fraeye with a straightener at Colchester away, only to then realise he couldn’t reach his waist.
