Season over
by andyHTAFC (U2802) 2 April 2012

Let's face it, we have blown automatic

The squad doesn't have the bottle to win via the play offs.

Deano's gamble hasn't paid off.

We are now condemned to lower league football forever

**************************************************************************

Thankfully Andy On ALL 4 Assertions .. I (and hopefully many others) Couldn't disagree more~ What on earths brought that bout of Xtreme Pessimism on .. One Result .. ?

Get a Grip of yourself fella .. .. Squeeze hard till it hurts and then say after me ~ Loudly .. We Can Do This .. ..

Sadly I agree Andy, happy Easter have an Easter for cheering up my dull Monday morning

Am I doing Orient thread then?

I have to agree 100%. with all the comments posted by the OP

Wethers .. Most of us Welcome New Faces Fresh Slants on Match Threads .. Yours are excellent but you just did Saturdays Carlisle 1

Surely L V and MBWB who both punted for this one should produce it .. However if neither of em are UP for it and time is tight then hopefully someone else will stadge one up for us .. ? ? ?

Its a Crucial Game thats for sure ..

In the event that no one steps forward and you have one readymade then may I suggest as your pretty close to HYDY ~ That you exercise altruism and give him the thread you've done with a request for him to Input & Colour his own feelings into it ..

I know bootsie, but with the game on tomorrow, i'm on to it.

Hey Ups Wakey .. Who is O P .. and whilst your at it would you like to Pop Us your Match Thread on here too .. Special Guest an'll ..

Aye up JK, I'm down for the Sheff Weds match thread. All prepared, just needs a few tweaks and it's ready.

I got edged out of the Orient one, can't remember who said they would do it, but they should!

Wetherbyterrier, who was doing the Orient thread?

Was it MBWB?

Ah fine then L V .. It was MBWB but he did also say he was gonna be Real Busy for Three Weeks setting up a new Luv Nest or something

Will Wakey be persuaded to Guest One for us .. ?

Iv'e nearly done it now, give me 15 mins.

andy. town will lose to wednesday in playoff final thars my prediction.

I Am SOOOOO With you there Tez .. My feelings entirely on that Post Match Report .. The Guys a Grown Up .. He Also knows how to WIN Promotions .. Times Tight & The Jobs BIG .. But hell he so deserves our Full & Positive Backing ..

I've had my rant over this (maybe a bit OTT)..but Grayson's comments..."we passed poorly, sat too deep and the workrate was poor"..could be true of a lot of games thus far.

The only thing that bugs me is the workrate..because all that involves is running, you don't have to think or even control the ball.

There must be something that stops players from wanting to run, because not putting the effort in is really unforgiveable. There was only 7 games left of the season and they should be pumped up to the eye balls..

any ideas ?

WE NEED TO DROP SMITHIES - CLOWN

It was NOT Over The Top Jacko .. It was all of it brilliant .. Lots of Emotion .. Tons a Passion and never ever doubt the fact that your a Poster who Oozes and Epitomises ALL that it takes to be a Town Fan and Supporter ..

Today I Luv You .. Tomorrow when you sneak a swervy ball post at me it'll be less so .. But my reasonably thick skin & deft ball control will as ever allow me to spin and flick such nougats Onwards .. and Upwards which is where The Town are going .. ..

the team are quite happy to accept the sneaky win or the lucky dtaw.. they are also quite happy to draw games from seemingly comfortable winning positions..
they got very excited about beating an, on the day, very ordinary charlton side.. lee clark and some of the players were very pleased with themselves after the 4-4 draw at wendies, forgetting almost immediately that at 2-0 up we conceeded 4 of the easiest goals we are ever likely to let in..
Its all been "just enough, no more" and "we are not losing, you should all be very happy and love us for our greatness has come amongst you" for the last 3 years.. we have won f-ck all and will continue to be potless unless the staff get a grip on the "egos"....

38. There is definately something unhealthy with this squad of players, but I'm blowed if I know where it comes from. You are right about how quickly we stop playing from a winning position, it's like the players can't wait to stop running around and just sit deep. This has punished us this season but we still do it. It's unbelievable really.

Graysons comments about 'poor workrate' at Carlisle is stunning, considering how important these last few games are.

Whatever you do as a player, you can always chase and harry the opposition, but if our players are not prepared to do that then we don't deserve jack sheet do we ?

marcus stewart had some bad days, so did boothy..they never stopped running, chasing and giving it 100% effort, even if the day was going from bad to worse..
we have had some bad teams at town in my time, we never had one that looked so disinterested as this lot do at times..
if its the pressure of being 4th in the 3rd division then most of them had better not be looking at moving up the leagues, because they will sh-t themselves weekly when the "pressure" gets worse.. it appears they simply cant handle being the "rolls royce" of the 3rd division, they can take the money but they are not "big enough" to actually earn it and they cant take a little stick....
like i said, wedndies manager and players apologised for their run of defeats, wilson has apologised for his team not being "good enough for the blades supporters", we get a middle finger from gary roberts(its a wonder he had the strength left to do it after his excertions on saturday..)

Of course Grayson can say what they did wrong, it isn't his team, trust me, the excuses fly out like cr@p after a meal of my mothers once it's his players making the mistakes.
