If we did win at Odiham, it wouldn’t be that great. They play in the Basingstoke and District League Division 3.
Ha! I think you know a typo when you see one.

We certainly did match them.Neither keeper had much to do-it was a game with very little threat on either goal and we were unlucky to lose to a dubious penalty.We had no capable and fully fit forwards available—he wouldn’t play Acquah if there was an alternative.The only way we might have avoided relegation comfortably was if Ranger had been able to play regularly.Having listened to MM after the game, he said we matched them, rubbish they looked like they wanted to score and win the game we on the other hand play defensive as we have now for a few games, I dont think MM knows how to win games the best form of defending is to attack,
one point a game from now on will see us relegated, sorry MM you are out of your depth, before anybody starts with stupid comments thats my opinion, having supported this team for over 60 years.
The penalty there should never had been a decision to make. Once SH was behind the player he should have just let him go. JW had come across to cover so all he was going to be able to do is pull the ball back- and I would have bet we would have dealt with it.We certainly did match them.Neither keeper had much to do-it was a game with very little threat on either goal and we were unlucky to lose to a dubious penalty.We had no capable and fully fit forwards available—he wouldn’t play Acquah if there was an alternative.The only way we might have avoided relegation comfortably was if Ranger had been able to play regularly.
MM is definitely one of our better managers and I’ve been supporting the Blues longer than you.

Acquah frustrates the hell out of me, he's a forward who can't jump and merely tries to rely on his height to win headers. He's not that quick either - another reason those long balls didn't work. Also didn't seem to try to get on Halford's long throws.
Acquah - 6, jump man, jump!
I'm not slagging him off, but he really frustrates me - he never jumps for the ball, it's like he's got lead weights in his boots!
I'm looking forward to seeing him play as we need him ! I'd have olyinka,mellis,fergusson and holmes in the midfieldNo shrimpet no, I'm not being lured into debating your next obsession with your next unseen messiah, I'm just not going there!
Olayinka can also play right back and I believe one of the reasons he was brought in originally was his ability to cover there.could step in to play that role (albeit less effectively).
With Elvis, now that JD has been converted into a central midfielder and Halford is viewed as a utility man, there's the inexperienced option of Rob Howard or Reiss Chandler (which we've seen with Seaden not being entrusted long-term with the gloves is unlikely to be MM's favoured choice), or the option of playing a centre-back in Hobson out of position, where he doesn't look anywhere near as comfortable.
What about the dozen or so other times every match where he doesn't jump? One instance proves nothing. If he wants to help, then Nile can do some mentoring there.Can we put this one to bed now, 50 secs in, I believe that is Acquah leaping like a salmon to get on the end of a cross,...

I used to be based there, very posh area, maybe they can't get players to sign due to the high cost of livingIf we did win at Odiham, it wouldn’t be that great. They play in the Basingstoke and District League Division 3.

It seems today is yet another day to slag off Aquah.Yes i agree he is inexperienced and in normal circumstances would be loaned out to gain better experience.However we need a target man to hold up the ball and bring other players into play we haven't got anyone else who can do that job so we have to accept it.As I have already said elsewhere on this thread cant see Ranger being available anytime soon.Its not Aquah fault he is doing his best.No I am not his agent!!!
Or classic 4-4 draw.Our next opponents are Oldham. Their record this season makes interesting reading. They have scored more goals than any other side in the division bar Exeter. However they have conceded more goals than any other side bar none. Hmmmm........so our match has nil-nil written all over it.....
Even if he’d dived that way,he wouldn’t have got his fingertips near it.Looking at the pen again it appears that young Montgomery made up the takers mind for him;
