Folkestone

[Hammerman]

Lost 1-0 last night. I thought they deserved to go though. They defended well and counter attacked windsor and could have won by more. There should have been 2 penalties. One for each side.

The 2 goals disallowed where correct. 1 for offside and the other for handball.

I thought Windsors tactics of 1 up front was very poor and it didn't change till the last 15 minutes.

 

Good luck to Folkestone in the next round.

unfortunatly we didnt really exploit there defence with our pace it was quite clear they didnt like it! and we didnt take advantage of there injured goalkeeper every shot on target was either straight at him or to close to him............

I thought we showed them a bit too much respect tonight, we employed the same tactics as Saturday flooding midfield and leaving Seedal up on his own for the most part. Fair play these tactics worked well away but I was hoping with home advantage we were going to have a real go at them. We never really seemed to get going and couldn’t get to grips with their offside trap.

 

Still at least we know we can compete with teams from the Premier league if/when we get back there.

Alot of postives to take out of the last two games however! If only we took our chances!

 

Only downside is Chenns on the bench. Roache is lacking confidence and off the ball his workrate isn't half as good as it should be. Put him on the bench and start with Chenns and then see if that gives him the rocket up his [****!!****] that he so clearly needs! All he needs is a couple of goals and i can see him going on a run.

 

Casey for England!!

As you know Woody I respect your opinion more than most peoples at Windsor but I have to take issue with you on your Roache comments, I can't believe the stick he seems to be getting at the moment from a certain section of the crowd. Along with Casey he is by far our most dangerous player and something looks like it will happen every time he gets the ball. You can't expect him to run 50/60 yards with the ball or chase a long ball over the top and then track back or close their keeper down, he would struggle to make it to Half Time if he was doing that every game.

 

Granted his finishing at the moment leaves a lot to be desired but he obviously has goal scoring pedigree from his time at Marlow. Even Chenns went through a spell last season where the goals dried up for him.

 

On another note I really think we need to find the town end equivalent of the Punto Stand.

on the roache debate i agree with clive that he does look dangerous when he gets the ball and his pace is second to none but his finishing seems to be getting worse and at times when he has the ball he tries to do to much at once and ends up getting tackled when a simple ball would be more benifical. at the beging of the season i said give him time but i think time is running out

[Woody SUFC]

Cpt- I must sit somewhere between your views and the people who think he's awful! On the ball he looks a threat, although as you said his shooting can and Will improve, but when we have a player of Chennels quality waiting in the wings why should we have to wait?

 

Against a higher level side we need players who can dig in for the fight and Roache isn't one of those players. I'm not saying he's a poor player, far from it! When he played against us for Marlow last season he blew me away with his pace and skill and we've only seen a tiny glimpse of what he can do.

 

As for respecting my opinion more than most at Windsor...That's not much of a compliment really is it!!!

There is another option for the punto stand. It by the floodlight.

On the Roach debate. It seems to me that its his turn to be the player most people want to slag off. He is lacking a bit in confidence but that doesn't help with the mindless idiots that stand behind the goal screaming abuse at him. He is a better player than Chennels and will prove so over time unless the idiots drive him out.

[MISM - WEFC]

not all of us are mindless idiots! im there most weeks and everytime roache misses or loses the ball most of us support him and try to encourage him to keep going. i dont agree with shouting abuse at you own players but as i have said we have given roache time and the goals are still not coming i am sure they will but why keep a player like chennels on the bench when roache is not preforming in front of goal??
