Saw Leo Young today play for Hastings United at Leatherhead in the FA Trophy. One of our 18 year old centre backs, soon to be 19. Not ready yet for men's football, and probably needs to bulk up a bit? Did nought wrong today as Hastings won 2-1. Sensible distribution.

Paris Lock is on loan at Braintree but seems permanently on the bench. Only gets on for the odd minute here and there. Might have been better to have a NLS loan where he'd get more minutes.

Proxy 4 Foxy?

Jackson may be forced to revert to a back 4. Potentially no JJOT, Johnson and Lewis for Tuesday. Back four of Biler - Ogundere - Harbottle - Furlong.

Can’t believe Everton failed to score against Toon today - they should sack the manager and the board 🤪

We’ve seen this before under Jackson. Good form goes to shotless shit as oppo teams watch and work out his tactics/formation that tend not to change (until too late).

Just give Angus your proxies sheeple 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Not entirely unexpected todays result, a bit of an after lord mayor's show game. Not surprising if a few players are still feeling it after Newcastle, the relentless bombardment they were under is above and beyond " normal service "

I know keefy - didn’t realise how sketchy our away form is, something like 7 wins out of the last 27 away games.

Lewis was my man of the match on tuesday but today he looked knackered before he got injured

50+1 should never be voted on whilst members lack information and debate on the subject. But we all know how DTB voting goes these days.

Fair point Trig, not even a point though!

No my point is just that we seem to have a superstitious tendency to lose whenever everyone feels good and expects a win.

RK - looks like they were published on dons trust website in late November last year, and on companies house in early January. It would seem a shame for them to not be published in time for the 50.01%.

Is unrealistic to hope for a win/draw again'st a lowly div 2 side? We don't aspire to much if that's the case. Get down to see the ladies tomorrow. More fun than an away day with the 1st team

Keefy, Reeves looked a bit over weight and not fully fit to me

Yeah you just have to read the rest of my post.

Our fault?

I’m afraid today was our fault. If we’re honest with ourselves, far too many of us expected a win today. And we all know how that usually turns out.

Are last year's accounts out yet - must be nearly time. And I would anticipate operating losses (before fee income) of £1m to £2m. No reason why that would change shape significantly this year 24/25

Far too early to be making such judgements. Teams can get promoted via the play-offs despite losing 25% of their league games. As Dave Bassett pointed out long ago.

Still we might have enough in kitty to strengthen in January.

We are a mid-table team. probably upper mid-table.

How did Reeves play? Not really an attacking midfielder unfortunately.

I think this might be a little wake up call and a back to reality check. If you look at the teams we have played, none are near the top bar Fleetwood (and when we played them, they were not in form). Losing away to Bromley and Salford is not a promotion outfit …
