Darlington
« on: April 13, 2019, 05:12:25 PM »
Second half was probably the worst I have seen this season. Darlington manager changed the system and they outplayed us. We couldn't even get out of our half! I actually thought we were a disgrace....no effort, no fight no pride and to think some of those wasters have signed for next season!

Absolutely gutted.

For goodness sake Craig do something!!!

Totally agree sadly. Thankfully Jacko is back as sadly the full back was just totally out his depth. Never looked like scoring.  Jay and Max gave hundred percent to be fair.  At one down the ball went out for a goal  kick and the full back left it for George to fetch does he think we are in the Premiership. We are one down at home I could have cried. Not normally negative but not happy to be honest   Fair play to Darlington team and fans.  Fair result.

Even worse than shambles against Peterborough Sports.  At least there was some entertainment provided by a few of the fans around me in the Spayne Road terrace having the occasional argument between themselves.

Bitter sweet for me today, Bitter was the pathetic second half display by the majority of those on the pitch. I won't go through them as only three put a shift in. It convinced me I shoudn't bother wasting another 50 quid going to Brackley for a likely thrashing and humiliation.
 Sweet was all you wonderful supporters who dropped off your Jam Jars and bags of coin. I can reveal that the collection has now passed the 3000 pound mark in fact it is 3000 and 35 pounds 16 pence. Thank you all again this is nothing short of terrific.

Oh blooming dear, what an awful performance in the second half.
Willis again beaten by a long range effort, l got a clear view of the shot, the view he got also,unlike the first goal.
He was having a cracking game before that.
Much work to be done in closed season, but that's probably the view of  everyone.
We did though have many players missing today for one reason or another.

Amazed that anybody is expecting anything different from this guy anything soon!!

Totally out his depth. Dreadful season.

They will give him another year. But get it he hasn't a clue at this level!!

First half pretty even.  Three Darlo subs at half time changed the game and they really went for it.

Dreadful second half from a Boston perspective. Virtually nothing up front. No Walker, Allott, Clare. We had no answers. Darlo probably had more to play for  as they needed two points to guarantee safety. Sort of summed up our season really. Hope Wafula hasn't been given a four year deal  :)

I’m sure Wafulah is a nice guy but if he is signed on I won’t be renewing my season ticket because if CE thinks his ability is good enough for this level of football then I don’t think he has learned much about what is required and gives me no confidence in his ability to sign the right standard of player. Very poor season, poor team selections and poor tactics. Having said all that I like CE and would like to see him show us what he has learned.

I stand near them, I really thought it was going to get to blows!
There's one guy there that shouts abuse nearly all the game, either at the ref, linesman, any player and CE.  ;D ;D

Is the guy in question Mr Wake Up Ref/Linesmen/Goalkeeper etc?

The two lads who stand near the pitch do bite a bit easy though.

That 2nd half was comfortably the most horrendous half I've seen in years
Freezing cold, no shots, no defending, no tackles, no songs, no chants, the team 18th in the league toying with us

3rd game in 4 I've not bothered clapping them off. That nobody could even be arsed to boo or shout abuse at them said more than any boos would've done

Roll on August

Spent so much of the season trying to get the defence right someone forgot we needed someone up front who knew where the goal was. The only time we were likely to score goals was when the ball wasn’t moving, usually on the penalty spot. Saturdays performance made Brexit exciting.

the effort for a settled defense hasn't worked either has it? it's 20 games since we had a clean sheet i believe (home versus York, Dec 8th 2-0)
