***Fleetwood Official Matchday Thread***

I am somebody who loves the Fa Cup as a relief from the tedium of our league performances and was hoping out players would be fired up to really take the game to Fleetwood, and what did we get 44 minutes no shots and nothing much resembling a stirring cup display. We did get back in with a decent goal after a bad mistake by them but come on that was really tame. We did have a bit of a go the last few minutes but it was a million miles away from the sort of displays against higher opposition we had when a non league team under SE. Time after time this season opposition keepers might as well bring a deckchair out with them for the little they have had to do and that is part of the huge disconnect between Cioffi's "good performances" and our increasingly bored and disillusioned fan base.
It wasn't the worst performance by any means but that isn't really saying much and it was reflected in almost total silence from the crowd for large parts of the game apart from when the ref tried to liven things up.
Also can we please ditch the tie up with Brighton and save our pitch for our team (& maybe Crawley Wasps a few times).

Brighton Ladies will leave when their Training pitches are completed at Lancing - It's only a few games and we did get pitch redone by them so a good deal -

Hopefully Wasps may well come in then,

Are Brighton U-21s playing at our p!ace tonight, I see they are in the mickey mouse cup v Newport, or do they have another alternative While we play a home game away?

On ok that's one good thing, our pitch needs a rest!

?? Pedantic but true I suppose sorry -while we are playing a home game at a neutral ground - better?

I think you will find it was actually our home game - anyway why would Lancing want to save their pitch its the same as Horsham a 4g synthetic surface
