Well shez after that performance if you can't see you need at least 3 or 4 new players in, we are in the shyyte, and conference North beckons, that was abysmal, only difference to recent games was the managers name, no pace, no width, no idea....

[trickytrevsfanclub]

On the plus side that’s 4 points from his first 2 games in charge and 2 clean sheets. But other than that yep you’re correct.

[Spire-Power]

No midfield, no pass and move

JBW was awful. I thought they had more in their locker and looked the more positive of the two teams. Need two CF and a winger. The 16 for them looked like a Kiwomya+ type of player.

We lost a lot of drive and purpose from midfield when Barry went off and Smith went to right back. I'll take a point against a well organised side.

Don't agree 're a lot of drive in midfield being lost by Smith going to RB. There wasn't much before. Thought Barry played ok, hope he's not out for long

Yep agree, I'll rephrase..we lost whatever drive we had through midfield..

[jack bauer]

individually and collectively just not quite good enough to turn another tight game into a victory, Sheridan knows where the problem lies but being able to do something about it is not going to be easy.

[Benno Spire]

We as fans didn't want to be in non league so I would imagine the same can be said for players. I would expect its not easy trying to attract players currently playing for a league team to potentially join a team out of the league at risk of going a further league below and many may see it as a backward step to join us unfortunately.

At least Dave was there today to see what’s needed, hopefully he’ll get his cheque book out again and Shez can get the right players in

[Exharboroughspireite]

Poor players. It's as simple as that

If he knew anything about football he'd have built on the squad and invested in Paul Cook rather than appoint that tool Saunders and dismantle arguably the best squad in our history.

[DerbySpireite59]

Interesting view. Personally I thought it was a stone wall penalty we should have been awarded. Also, the atmosphere at home turns negative too quickly too often imo. If you can't say something positive say nowt is an old saying I hold dear. There's far more context to all of this of course. Imo this squad is more than capable of being competitive in this division.

Did he do a walkabout prematch like a visiting pope?

The way he was beating the ground in frustration when being treated it does not look good in the long term imo

Competitive is one thing but we just don’t have enough fire power to win games regularly, our central midfields first thought is never ever to turn towards goal, the only one on our books who plays like that is Beestin, we need to ditch someone to get him in the side, unless we have a change of personnel

Weston had a great run in the second half got to 19 yards out, their defence back off, doesn't back himself, goes sideways, momentum gone.

He's had coaching in taking throw ins this week. That worked well then.

Doesn’t the pope have bullet proof pope-mobile, all DA needs is a pie proof one
