Someone said ' Poor Stanley ' to me as I left the ground..
And ' poor ' was the operative word I'm afraid !.
For such an important game the team selection was poor,
the Manager's chosen tactics were poor, the quality of play from almost all the team was poor. And all this against a Cambridge team who were also poor !.
Weaknesses were apparent in key areas in particular in defence who got little cover from a struggling midfield.
Our ' Strikers' didn't and thus were totally ineffective, and overall there was a lack of the steel and purpose required for this occasion.
In his Radio interview the Manager did have the grace to admit that throughout the season the Stanley have 'not been good enough '.. and this fact was underlined for us all this afternoon at the Wham/Crown !.
Disappointing but somehow inevitable ?..
( But nevertheless my Season Ticket is safely stored away until the Autumn ! ).
