Default Re: That's 3 defeats in a row (Bromley A)

[QUOTE=Prodigal Dragon;2218467]Yes, it is a simple truth - but not simplistic - that we need better players. However, I am realistic enough to realise we cannot afford 20 top notch players, simply because we do not have the funds to do so. Consequently, we need a strong core of players, supplemented by players who we can develop, and some loanees that add immediate value.

The manager needs to manage and coach to get the best starting XI to play effective football by scoring goals and winning games. We have struggled to do this well for far too long.

Our current core strength is limited to Lainton, Lawlor, Pearson and Beavon. Our other players are not pulling their weight. It’s too early to state Grant, Oswell and Stockton won’t add value but, clearly, they haven’t had an immediate effect.

The fact Pearson was bollocking them on the pitch toward half time on Tuesday shows he still has heart. Thing is we are close to the top of the league, players should be thinking put a shift into tonight and its another step closer to a promotion on my CV. That's not happening and tbh it looks like a few players have given up.
