Tough watch last night, two very poor sides in which Wakey threatened to blow us away yet again. It shouldn’t have to be applauded that our players played for 80 minutes, but thats how low it feels like the standards have fallen with this team.
Injuries obviously haven’t help our situation by any means, but as I’ve mentioned previously, we seem to seriously suffer more then most in recent years, is it coincidence? Or is there more to it. I don’t know, but it has to be something to be looked at going forward.
Sadly another season is going to fizzle out just like most have since 2018. It’s horrible seeing our club like this, not making the play offs is unforgivable for a squad of this cap size.
The one positive for next season is the injection of pace we should hopefully see from the likes of Hoy/Trueman. It was painful watching how slow and to be honest awful our players are at passing a ball. McNamara got a bit of stick last night but there’s not much he can do at second receiver when it’s taken as long as it did for the ball to reach him. That’s where our problems lie in attack for me.
On a final note, this is a club absolutely desperate for some leadership on the pitch. I don’t look at any of those players and see them as someone the players look to for inspiration. Naturally it should be the likes of Taylor/Houghton/Gale, but I just don’t see it. A minichiello esc signing would be the perfect use of our final quota spot
