Did not miss much we were [censored] , feel sorry for the likes of Shaun and Pinns who seem to be the only two that are bothered about playing in a blue shirt and maybe James Rogers as well as he don`t get alot of help in midfield . All credit to Croydon though they have nothing to lose so they go to every match with the right attitude , the lads that play for them have been given a chance to play 1st team footy as most of the 1st team walked away after the massive troubles they had but they all seemed commited , faster , fitter and better than us . Maybe our lads should be banned from going out , having late nights and start to commit themselves more just like bottom of the table Croydon are .

Shaun was a disgrace swearing at the other lads, giving up, not concentrating when he was having a hissy fit! and lets be honest, he cant play 90 mins, he is knackered after 75...but we dont have anyone good enough

Shauns quality as far as im concerned so he has every right to shout and swear at team mates , if i was him i would be telling them as well these guys are there to do a job for him but that aint helping him one bit . He has proved with the right people aroun him how outstanding he can be but we have a bunch of lads who just want a pay packet . Shaun , Pinns , Rogers run there arses off week in week out but with no help around them so to crucify your team mates in public should happen as it may make them realise he`s right .

I agree he is a good player Andy, he was fantastic before his injury...our best player by a mile...but the swearing shouldnt be happening, how does that encourage people...and he did give up easily today...to be honest he needs to be in the middle, but he is always the one crossing the ball which is such a shame

He was crossing the ball in because no one was running the wings so he was doing it for them hoping someone may just be in the box to take his crosses , but i agree with you he needs to be in the middle . This is why he swore at his team mates if they are not providing him with crosses or passes then tell in whatever way you want .

Don`t no if you were at Hartsdown last season when we played Kingstonian and Francis Duku kicked off big time with a couple of his players , at the time they were not playing so well themselves but after that game with us thay flew up the league and into the playoffs which they lost but i spoke to Francis and he told me its the best thing to do , publically let your teammates know how you feel . I now keep in touch with Dukes and he still says that was the catalist to start there season so it shows if your not happy let it be known . To have someone like Shaun is a massive asset to have , if he were to go or even put a transfer request in himself , well then we are fu..ed ,

Where wa Cloke? Has he gone with Jay? Its quite simple it seems. Low crowds = No Money. No money = Poor players. Poor players = Bad team, Bad team = Low crowds.

Uncomfortable ground = Low crowds = No Money. Lets hope that on once we get the new ground that Margate's fortunes change otherwise we'll be playing in the best ground in the Kent League!!!

Hmm, so we can't take our chances and can't defend against pace. And our heads go down after we concede. Not good, is it? Some of our lads didn't look fully fit to me (Lacy/Robinson), or perhaps I mean 'not up for it'.

 

Welford's tantrum was out of order: all the lad had said to him was what about 250 people were thinking.

 

To be fair I didn't think Croydon were that bad a side. A bit flaky at the back, but plenty up front (particularly nos. 9 and 11). And the lad who scored first (Elgar was it?) was man of the match by far IMO.

 

Also on the plus side, IOC will be back from suspension on Monday, so let's hope he can get the spirits up. In fact I hope he knocked some heads together after today's effort.

Was rather hoping the usual today Chris at half-time.Surely Keister cab knock them into shape as well.(Obviously not ! )

 

As for not defending pace. How many more times do I have to see our defenders backpeddling to oncoming forwards.Carry on players, keep giving them all the room they need to either cross a ball or go into the area & shoot for goal (as was with the 1st of theirs today).STAND YOUR GROUND!!
