110 years. A tragic night for this club I ove.

Thanks and depressing.

 

[dcblue]

That was embarrassing. Glad no one was there to experience it. I will be happy if I never see any of those players play for us again.

 

[Strykr]

I don't agree with the abuse he was getting.

He hasnt had any abuse. Theres nowone in the grounds!

Hes crap. They all are. They would have got some serious abuse had fans been in and rightly so.

 

[Chalky]

We were losing 3 and 4 nil at the start of the season but this is undoubtedly the worst we've played. MM and RM are complicit with building this squad, and Brown is complicit in making us worse as a team on the pitch. We've gone down with a whimper. No discipline, no desire, minimal effort.

That's true, I didn't think it could get worse. But boy it did.

My post was more aimed at people now being revisionists about MM.

I just don't know anymore, feel sick.

Total disgrace !!! team wasnt up for it at all , Im not gonna blame MM or PB , i mean christ what did they have to work with, washed up couldnt care less players that werent wanted elsewhere!!.
The blame lies firmly at RON MARTIN'S door no excuses now tell us the real plan at the next meeting Ronald, after this crap season i think we THE FANS of this club deserve some honest truth for a change.

2 shots the whole game, 2 ****ing shots.

110 years. A tragic night for this club I love.

Only since 1920, so that's 100 years.

 

[Barling Magna]

Well, blow me down. Where was the fire and the passion that we are entitled to expect? I watched every minute of that game and honestly the only players showing even glimpses of fire and passion were Hart and in the brief time he was on Egbri. It says something that only Hart fell to the ground in dismay when the final whistle blew. Jeez.............

 

[Brett Angle]

How people on here can have a pop at PB on here and blame him for that shower of sh*t we call 'a squad' amazes me. They are the worst group of players I've ever seen in the 40+ years I've been watching Blues and its RM and MM that are to blame for that. Nobody else.

 

[Tony Allen]

Beating Sunderland wasn't a good idea. If we had been in this division last year we might have turned a corner by now

Sorry to be pedantic but it’s 100 exactly. We were non league until 1921, not that it makes much difference but loads of people seem to get this wrong

 

[gatecrasher]

No fans has saved Ron and these cowards from months of rightful accountability for a disgusting effort

 

[Billy Bests boot laces]

Hello 5th tier.

'But don't worry, as you've nothing to fear from us. We need to completely rebuild a new team, not replace just 3 or 4 players. So the odds of nigh on 11 new players gelling together sooner rather than later, is highly improbable for us to be one of the frontrunners in your league next season'?.

 

[Jacob Sladder]

Holmes busy but lost up front trying to win the ball in the air. No-one else warranted a mention. Crap passing, played like strangers, no guts or desire on show and a dull damp squib of a match. Blues have hardly one player who has genuine skill on the ball. We run forward and then STOP - no fight, too frightened to DO something.That is 96mins I'll never get back. Three matches from now, we need a massive clear out.

Thanks, that makes it easier to swallow

I think everyone on here is hurting. It's been death by 1,000 papercuts over the last 2-3 seasons really, but it hurts even more when you watch that performance in a local derby. I think more than ever the fans need to stick together and not start sniping at each other.

Worse? Its as if the rest of the season never happened- yes today was as poor as last week (already erased from your memory I guess) was indeed better. PB has not made the team worse. Could PB suddenly make them better? A big ask for anyone. Frankly it will take a full summer transfer window to do that. The positive is that so many are out of contract.

 

[united we stand]

And there was me thinking he would come in and he would make this shower of complete **** play like Barcelona

We didn’t want or need Barcelona. A goal or maybe two is all we wanted
