Never thought I'd say it but I'm glad the bairn has covid so we couldn't go. Bunch of useless knackers.
 
I'm your average happy clapper on this board, but this is a genuine embarrassment. Can't string 3 passes together and currently now have 2 defenders on the pitch, after starting with 3. LJ keeps setting us up with little to no defensive cover and every time we give the ball away, there is always about 10 yards of space between the CBs and the CMs for anyone and their dog to turn around and take on our back 4. Then on top of that our back 4 back off, get turned too easily and we get overawed.

It's basic coaching 101 that when you don't have the ball, you compact the defence and midfield but these players seem to not be able to do that, or are told not to every fecking week.

We still could go up but I highly doubt it unless we get lucky in the playoffs.
 
We're just flat track bullies. Happy to rout the absolute dross in this league, as soon as it gets tough we just don't want to know.
