So I ask again, is there anyone at the club with the skill, knowledge , wit, and desire to reverse what is now looking more and more like a one way descent into the anonymity of the Conference !.

It was obvious yesterday that the team were under half time instructions to keep the ball in an attempt to stretch Northampton's 10 men. However, all that happened was that we passed the ball from side to side from one wing to the other and back again. No one was making runs for the player in possession to attack the opposition and their remaining forward players were so good at pressuring our defenders that the ball ended up too many times back at the keeper for a rushed clearance. Pass and move seems to be a completely alien concept to this lot, which must be down to lack of proper coaching and confidence on the ball. One player in particular drove me crazy time after time by failing to draw a man to create some space, merely shovelling the ball out to the winger who would be immediately closed down. Groundhog day!
