Mark Little has not played much football at all for best part of 18 months ??
Was he really the player to bring on when we are trying to shepherd a point into the pen ?
Just seems JBs presser and he’s bang on really
Turn around and look at the bench and he will go, nope we cannae with anything wi THESE kids
so he’s sent on an old head with rusty legs
dilemma doesn’t even cover it

Lots of dusting down required before Saturday according to Joey.

That was a painful second half to watch. Despite Upson scoring I don't see what he contributes to the midfield. A player of his experience should be bossing it, but he goes missing for long periods of the game. Unfortunately we have little alternatives

So very frustrating and I'll be honest when their 3rd goal went in and in the manner it went in I turned it off. So didn't see the sending off.
What was Alfie thinking has he not learnt from Leahy's mistake of in doubt kick it into the stands. Its a shame because he does so well but let's himself down with stupid decisions and mistakes. Maybe its time he sits out again for a while and bring Ehmer back and see how he gets on. I thought we played well up top and the midfield played okay too.
A draw away at Charlton would have been a great result just had hold on. Now we're getting really low on goal keepers

Can’t tackle, can’t short range pass, can’t long range pass and can’t put in a consistent shift.

Just when I thought it could,nt get any worse a previous poster has suggested Day will be suspended for the next 3 games,JVS in goal is not going to help our already very fragile defence. I really have given up any hope of staying up this season its just one step forward followed by two back at the moment,we just can,t push on after we do get a positive result. Can’t agree with that at all. When JVS came in we saw 3-0 win, 2-0 loss and a 2-1 win. Since Day it’s been LLLLDLLDLWLLWLLWDL That’s even more shocking than I remembered it to be.

I was proud of the boys tonight especially in the first half, maybe I’m stupid for it I don’t know but we don’t look like relegation certainty for my money. It’s a loss and we’re hurt but we’re the f*cking gas and I believe we’re league 1 next season It’s 50/50 I reckon but yes we played ok overall. Thing is we’ve said that loads this season after a loss. You’re a good gashead Socrates, whatever you think and feel right now you’ll be right there supporting with me till the end, that’s all that matters really and I believe me and you will both be happy enough at the end!

That’s pretty much how I saw it. I do think that if we’d had a bit more experience and a bit more fight we’d have come away with at least a point though ? We’re a soft team that is nervous without the ball and the only fighter we’ve got is a young kid on loan from Chelsea who’s been brilliant in his application and determination whether he’s having a good game or not. That just goes to show how Badly we’re lacking leadership in the core of our team. Oh to have tony Craig back !!! Utg The same Tony Craig that can’t get in a side at L2 Crawley...??

Tisdale had a whole window to add to the squad. Wasted it chasing his mate from Exeter though Don't know the ins and outs but he only signed 2 players. I'm sure he would have signed more if given the choice. Especially when you consider that Burton who were bottom signed 8-9 players. Tisdale fell on his sword for making an utter cats arse of the window then blaming everyone else around him. The players he did sign was the goalie who we nearly signed a year ago and his mate from MK Dons.

One consistent in all of that and we know his name. Time for a change of Head of Recruitment/Director of Football?

Whilst I’m not in the camp of we need him back, he’s been pretty much ever present in the starting line up for Crawley since joining. Just tonight I think he was sub and it might be a niggle or rested ? He came on as sub though

One consistent in all of that and we know his name. Time for a change of Head of Recruitment/Director of Football? Hard to say, without knowing every aspect of the transfers. It was PT who didn’t want to sign any player’s on loan, like most other clubs. So it’s the summer window, where Widdrington could be to blame. But if Garner said give me a list of player’s that I can develop, that are early 20s and that’s what he did, who is to blame. Your good with your knowledge, but at the end of the day, if you did the role, you would do what the manager said. He could have given him a list of ten player’s for each position and Garner picked them. Only the board will know, who did what.

Don’t rate either Day or JVS god do we ever miss Anssi I thought Charltons goalkeeper looked worst than Day, but they don't rely on the goalkeeper to do the defenders job.

What is the actual point of a linesman if they can't spot this as offside?

Listening to JB’s interview I think the team are starting to knock the stuffing out of him already. He’s also commenting on the squad we have now so I guess he’s just confirming what we know that the team squad in its entirety isn’t good enough. If the management team lose the enthusiasm and confidence then I think that’s it, we’re toast.

Joseph makes the worst substitutions I've seen for a modern day manager. No tactical guile behind it, just bringing on fresh legs. We nearly always concede when he makes his late subs.

I also got the impression that he thinks it's going to be hard to keep us up as we keep making stupid mistakes and the squad is not good enough. Really impressed with JB tho,the way he talks,acts and trys to get us playing and attacking.Our performances have improved a lot since he has come in, but we have an unbalanced squad and players making stupid errors each game which he can't changed right now. If we had somehow had appointment JB when we appointed PT then I'm sure we would have 20 more points right now and be comfortable in mid table as JB would have brought in some new players in.

The unfortunate second half and this lucky goal of Washington should not make us forget we made a good match yesterday and were very close to get some more points. Again. Obviously the squad is getting confident, even if we make still the little error to make it not performing. The perfs will come i am confident; now we just must not let this keeper expulsion make doubting come. Get prepared for saturday.
