The squad lacks depth and apart from 4 or 5 players are not good enough for the Conference South.
Marcus placed too much emphasise on youth and did not replace Lewis Ferrell and Jordaan Brown in the close season with players of similar calibre.
A number of the young players that Marcus chose to introduce are not good enough for this level at this point in their footballing career.
The problem is that when you are doing well you can slot in a youngster without it really having an effect on the team performance.
When you are up against it as we have been most of the season you cannot rely on inexperienced youngsters to get you out of a hole. Putting the likes of Luke Neville,Danny Bassett,Joe Aribo,Erivaldo Felix into this situation could have a detremental effect on their futures as footballers.
We seem to be playing out the season and he performance last night was that of a team that knows they are down.
I hope that we pull off 3 great away wins in the next 2 weeks against fellow relegation threatened teams, but if we play like we did last night, and against Harrow Boro last week , i can't see it happening. I hope i am wrong.
