Cowards. This is a relegation fight and we're playing with all the determination of a dead squirrel.
We're going to have to win all our remaining home games at this rate, which isn't out of the question, but we don't have a hope in hell of getting anything from either away game. We turn into custard away from home.
Dreadful we have seen some utter dross this season and today was way up there. From start to finish we were beaten. I feel sorry for the fans that made the journey at least I only paid a tenner on ifollow. We couldn't fight our way outta a paper bag today. Pathetic.

Absolutely ridiculously bad performance. I can’t even think of an appropriate way to describe how bad we were I am so annoyed by that performance, the total lack of shape, tactics or desire out there. AWFUL. AWFUL. AWFUL!!!!!
I AM DISGUSTED WITH THE PLAYERS- NO SHOTS ON TARGET, PASSING IT SIDEWAYS AND BACKWARDS- HOPELESS, GUTLESS AND CLUELESS!!!!
As I have said previously on the forum there isnt enough Crawley red blood in the veins of the players in our squad. What does SL do? He has to pick these players up now and get 3 points on Saturday. I want him to explain is team selection though for today as it was all wrong rom the start. It was so frustrating to watch all we had to do is deliver balls in the box, pump them in win the 2nd balls and SHOOT!

59% possession and three shots, none on target from us. 13 shots and 7 on target from them. The only explanation I can find is Lindsey was replaced by Betsy this morning and no-one said anything.
Let's start with the positives. Addai had an OK game. No chance with the goals and his distribution was OK.
If you had named that back line in a paint pot game earlier in the season I'd have worried. They are just not league standard. One of them in a back line is fine but not all of them... Maybe two if they were in their correct positions.
The forward line did not work. It was better with Telford on but no shots on target and only one or two all game tells its own story.
That starting midfield!
I think we're down, I think we're in trouble next season.

It was back to the Betsy days that performance. Sideway, backwards, dilly dally on the ball, cool a three course meal then pass the ball. The closest we came to scoring in the second half was 2 blocked shots from Tilley that didn’t even reach the 6 yard box!

Possession is everything. If you shoot you give possession back to the opposition. Either by a goal kick or by the restart from the goal.
