Ht losing 0-3,switched off slow and four behind ball marking no player as we attack means long range sky bound efforts. Connolly dreadful. Defence all over place. Gambin mom so far by miles.
Worst performance since we got relegated from league one. No urgency, no shape, kept giving the ball away, no pressure on the ball. Second half we were just going through the motions, painful to watch.
They were probably the best side we have seen here this season but no excuses. First goal down to bad pass by Lewis Young, second goal probably 2 yards off side....but we did no deserve a point. Ollie Palmer clearly frustrated nobody getting up to support him very quickly.....defence caught out by direct running of MK....poor performance bu us.
First goal terrible error by Lewis, 4th goal an howler from Conns, 2nd appeared to be being claimed for offside (I was too far away) Take all those away and we lost 1-0 against a side I expect to get promoted comfortably.
We played some neat tidy passes and had a few decent attempts on goal but we lacked that killer instinct and all too often we were looking for the perfect goal.
I worry about our height - we created chances that led to corners and free kicks. But aside from Conns and Palmer who is going to head the ball aggresively - today was a day when we relly could have done with a plan B of playing it a bit route one or putting things in the box - but we simply don't have those players - ANG, Gamblin, Morais and Vincelot all good on the ball and can run but we need something different
Ho hum - onto the next game. And fair play to MK- the best and most clinical side I've seen this season or last at the Broadfield. And I drank all my half time tea this time around

Insult to pur fans paid good money to watch our players WALK slower than MK players WALKED past us. Why was Gambin taken off the MOM? Wjy from.start to endvwas MK GK allowed take so long with goalkicks. This was so bad at times they 'ran' past us in slow motion. Connolly is a joke. Plays them onside gets a nose bleed if ten yard from their half. So often we attack with half team behind the ball. A shower of sh1t. Credit to few West standers kept songs going occasionally and East Stand for getting behind team especially 4-0 down. Really MK should won by far more as they messed up in front goal several times second half. Embarressing efforts. Pathetic would be a compliment.
Season over.
SSC v Haywards Heath. I CANT WAIT. NOT! Be amazed if we need more than a park bench to accomodate fans. Todays performance wont get fans rushing back. Thankfully a while before another league home match.
I know he is loved by our fan base and I am sure he is a good guy but Connolly is awful, he makes mistakes every game, gives away stupid fouls and pens most games. Today he was shocking. It is time the myth around him went. As for the rest of the team its a disgrace today. It has been the case all season that no one comes up to support Palmer, when he fact he could well be the best player at holding the ball we have ever had. There is no urgency when we attack except when ANG runs, most of time we go sideways for Young and Francomb to put it a embarrassing cross. The last two games which I have been to both have been awful.
Is it too much to ask to do the simple things right? I really feel sorry for Morris in all of this.
