The mother of Dennis Nielsen, a serial killer, said of her son "I may not like him nor what he has done, but I will always love him". I feel the same about my team. Tonight it looked as if the only suitable manager for us should be Bertram Mills. I played a bit - and was taught from schoolboy, when you have the ball you should expect at least 2 shouts from team mates around. This gave you a choice of simple passes. If you are calling for the ball (making the shout) you should be on the move, not static. Tonight, in a very sparse crowd, you could see and hear no one calling for the ball. The goalkeeper made two glaring errors. The first was for the goal. He had a clear vision and should have e called for the defender to clear the ball, or to head the ball back. There was no call, and he was in no mans land between the six yard box and penalty spot ..... He also gave a short goal kick to a player with an opponent all over his back and shouted at that player for losing the ball. I hate to single out players, but a goalkeeping mistake is always the one that cannot be rectified. The truth is that it was a very poor performance in a game that should have been there for the taking. I certainly do not like what I am currently watching, but I love this team and always will.
