I just really cannot understand how we play like prime Barcelona in one match against harder opposition with good possession, passes and shots on target and then do that against a team who arguably are a lot worse than us. Really baffling. Lineup was practically the same too.
I think it's to do with the opposition set up.
Fulham made 11 changes and played basically an academy team. That suited Crawley, giving a bit more space and time to play.
On to Rochdale and it's back to the rough and tumble of L2, against teams that compete hard, get stuck in and scrap for every point.

Fulham did not play an academy team, just one lad up front had the academy numbers. The rest were Premier League squad players
Last season, our start was 4 points out of 15 and two cup defeats. Including conceding 6 goals in two separate games. Yems out!
There were calls for him to be sacked then (iirc).
He needs to get some of the injuries back and then make some tough choices.

Absolutely, a few did do the toys pram thing with Yems exactly this time a year ago. But happily it was just a vocal minority and most fans gave him time to lift things
I was surprised to see us playing today. I saw the celebrations Tuesday in and out the dressing rooms and thought we’d been promoted to league 1. Struggled to find our result for ages.

Makes Fulham even more amazing but seriously we will get relegated out of football league at this rate. If I write 100 lines "Im Sorry John Yems" can we have him back please?

2 draws and 2 points from 6 games is relegation stuff. If we drop ouuta league 2 we will NEVER return. Im serious the club is far too small. These crypto guys need to act now put their hands up and admit it was a mistake. We need a LEAGUE TWO manager. Betsy aint that. The guy has to go. Please sack him now before its too late.
Usual suspects are back ‘yawn’, yes today is very disappointing but some people really need to wind their neck in. We got a point away from home, when did that stop becoming an acceptable result. We are all hesitant at the approach from Betsy but the constant bashing saying he should be sacked is getting really tedious. We have injuries, the team need to settle. Give them a break ffs.

Totally agree when relegated end of football league at Crawley.
Well I can't say a point is either a good result or a bad result, just an okay result really.
Looking at the stats it looks like Rochdale dominated the game and we got away with a point.
Winning against Fulham reserves in the cup hasn't proven anything and Betsy and the team have a long way to go yet.
We're out of the relegation zone on goal difference now, so that's a small positive.
No Telford again.
We've got 4 strikers that should score at least 15-20 goals between them, but none of them have scored yet. So much for this attacking football Betsy said he going to bring.
Early days blah blah blah, but if we can't beat the team at the bottom of the league who can we beat.
