No not happy now - you're still making the assumption that part time teams are a joke, akin to playing Sunday league. They are decent sides with some quality players many of which will be as good if not better than the ones we have at our disposal. Over a season you would expect a full time team to have the advantage and come out on top most of the time. Losing some along the way. We've lost 5 all season. We're second. If we had started this season in League 2 where do you think we would be now? In a better or worse position than previous seasons? With better performances and a more cohesive motivated side or not? Regardless of whether we are playing part time or full time clubs most aspects of the team have improved. You don't have to love Clarke, and you can unpack poor decision making/ performances all you like - but give the guy SOME credit. Thinking we should beat all part time teams (and then always by more than one goal) is just fanciful. Did you read anything Luton fans posted on here early in the season? If we started the season in L2 with Clarke in charge, we would be in a 4 way dog-fight with Hartlepool, Tranmere and Cheltenham. Tranmere beat us without breaking sweat earleir in the season, so draw your own conclusions. Give him credit for what? Failing all season to organise a team so that the whole was greater than the sum of the individuals? I never said we would win every game, look what happened to Chelsea in the FA cup, that's football, odd results happen, but 16 draws and you want to defend that record, your on a wind up, surely? I don't know whether to laugh or cry, you are making excuses for not being able to beat Dover. Dover for goodness sake...... You use conditionals a lot. If we ... we would. If you could know for certain what you can't possibly know, you would be right about everything you say. You state facts as if the conclusions you draw from them are facts as well. We lost to Tranmere therefore we would be in a relegation battle. It's like saying Bradford beat Chelsea so they would be top of the premier league. Rather than 'facts' look at the bigger picture - the team spirit, the players playing for the manager, the much more frequent evidence of good football and cohesion. Dover is just a name. Get over it. |

I thought Tranmere only beat with a pen after MM needlessly handled in the box? Whilst you are clearly anti DC who do you think can do a better job next season if we are still in the Conference and Mad Dog sticks with Barnet? We were never in danger of winning that game. Tranmere were dire, but we still found a way not to win. Sound familiar? Isn't the 'precluding factor' that would have prevented Holloway from returning now removed? |

Once again a few on here absolutely delighted we conceded a crucial goal.
Just couldn't get to the keyboard quick enough. Same old.

RE: The Postmen and electricians cliche. Can we stop this now? These are decent jobs that can pay well. At the lower end of the league system going professional may not be the best choice financially or in terms of career trajectory. Many part timers are quality players who value their own careers outside football, and the money they can make there. The disadvantage may only be in terms of fitness. Many full time players at this level are gambling on reaching a higher level. They may be wrong. An electrician is just a job someone has - it doesn't hinder their skills. P.S If you have to keep churning this out mix it up a bit - nurses, sales reps, security consultants. Use your imagination. Well, I tell you this. If I employed an electrician who did a job as poorly as Blissett does his, I`d be very very wary of touching the light switch. |
