Six points from a possible 24 under the current management, says all you need to know.

That'll certainly be the easiest 3 points stourbridge will pick up all season. They'll probably be disappointed that the didn't boost their goal difference further! Conditions were poor, but we're the same for both where no real passing game or link up play exsisted at all. Think it's really clear now that we're in danger of dropping down to step 4, being 6 points adrift with teams around us having games in hand and a very poor goal difference. Starting to wish that our league was put on a world cup break!

Indeed, and this against a team that at half time we were only 3 points behind, yet we made them look like title contenders today, we were that poor all over the pitch. 3-1 final score when it could have easily been 5 or 6-1, how many corners did we concede in the first half, it was ridiculous.

Two weeks ago I felt a genuine bit of hope that we might be able to get ourselves out of this, but just like the other two victories this season it has been a case of one step forward, two steps back and failing to put together a run of form we desperately need. Yes there has been improvement under Maxwell but given how poor we were under Burge it would have been difficult to be any worse!

Fact of the matter is, despite better performances, we are still 4th bottom in the form table over the last 10 games, results are still not good enough and relegation sadly feels more a probability than just possibility now. One of the first step for the board with new recruits after Wednesday must be to dismiss Maxwell or give him a short term points target over the next few games like we did with Burge.

Why are we getting so many injuries. Every week we have to make 2 or 3 changes. Is it bad lack? Is a change in training routine required? This has been going on since the very start of the season, not just recently.

Is it just me or did the interview with RM seem really awkward, at times it looked like he didn’t really want to answer the questions asked by Joseph, and while a nice gesture, handing over the signed ball was also awkward.

It’s surely time to act, can’t hit the points total and it’s all a bit flat again. We need that boost to get us going again. Get a new manager, let’s put together a war chest and give it a go.

Get everyone back on side with a new broom. Notice lots of familiar faces not about the place at the moment.

Exactly this. Only one way to get out of this and that’s everyone together.
