    Seriously - do you think any of that performance deserved 'star' status?
    How does Jackson keep his place in the team ?
    I don't know why I bother.
    There was nothing worth any praise -
    Oh, sorry - actually, Wimbledon's new ground - looks alright.
    Four, Five, Fork,... and other Four letter words.
    The season now focusses on a relegation 'fight.'
    How can we get any more points - if we can't beat Wimbledon ?
    Evans - won't worry if we get relegated -
    He'll be the problem of a different set of fans next season.
    I despair of the lack of ideas in our play.
    Goal attempts - a lob from the half way line !
    Hoofball at it's worst !
    Entertainment value = £Zero
    Season, after season - same old rubbish.
    The blind leading the blind ( on and off the pitch )
    Quality - it really isn't a word that exists in our dictionary.
    Up in a hot-air balloon, you'd be in danger of Gillingham style football.
    Am I going to watch on Saturday.
    Look - I am an idiot - so the answer is 'Yes.'
    I simply can't STOP - I wish .......
    There was a vaccine to prevent me.
    You worked it out yet ?

    If I were in Scally's shoes I'd be on to Celtic saying that if they want him then we won't push for any compensation for our loss.

    Anyway let's give this star player ago...

    1. Oliver - he just applies what the boss instructs him to do. Never been a natural striker in my eyes, but his mere presence unsettles teams.
    2. Dempsey needs no explanation I think.
    3. Graham came close to scoring. I feel his crosses into the box are often wasted by the lack of a natural goal poacher. Sometimes, I'm just waiting for that leg to come in and direct it into the net, but it never comes. The only other option is if Graham goes for goal himself, but he's already doing what he's required. This is why I question, was Lee really the right player to bring off, I feel we need to allow these guys the room up front to get on the end of Graham's crosses, the big guys aren't cutting it from that perspective.

    I guess what I'm stressing from the above is the set up is wrong, there is the constant method that Evans has applied, but half the teams natural ability is not to play that way....but what do I know.

    Give me Vardy, Barnes, Son style of players any day of the week, the tactics we apply are meant for L2, Lincoln quite clearly demostrated to us in a few games gone by, what I deem as clinical finishing, we matched them on the park, but couldn't match them in front of goal.

    The gaffer says we are 'finished' in regards to play-offs, well if that's the case, then we have nothing to lose, try something different!
