Where's it all gone wrong

Having unfortunately seen most of the games this season I simply think the system we are playing is all wrong. The 3 in midfield isn't working and we are getting outrun in the middle of the park, the amount of space that teams can exploit is a joke and we are therefore conceding a heap of often cheap goals. The players we have brought in all seem to full fill the same role and we haven't got that grit or determination in midfield. Yet if we insist on playing three up front then they can't be 3 centre forwards as no one does any tracking back. We played 3 upfront a couple of seasons ago but it worked as players like David Wheeler and Tyrone Marsh worked their socks off and helped the midfield. Louis Callum and Elliot just don't seem to do that. When not playing well you have to make yourself hard to beat and for me that has to be two banks of 4. On the subject of Louis T, he has to go, yes he scores goals but I think he stops us scoring more by not passing or putting in the effort when not in possession. Against Gloucester he looked uninterested and when not playing well you need everyone giving 100% and in my opinion he doesn't.

On the subject of swearing we now live in a world where (whether we like it or not) swearing is regularly used in conversation. If you think that it's bad at staines then you clearly haven been to many away games as some other grounds are much much worse! I am in fact glad that the fans have come and joined us under the terrace on the far side as it's created a much better atmosphere where the fans are harmless and simply passionate about their club!

Unfortunately I can't see us winning on Tuesday but I'll be there supporting ( with no swearing of course ;)

C'mon you swans!
