Odonker should not be in the team sadly ,as soon as he comes with 10 minutes to go I always think that's that then .And it's just not happening we really have got to win 3 games together soon our form whichever way you look at it is really poor.Mid table finish nailed on at the minute.
 
I think it's time the permanently positive folk acknowledge this is very poor.

Tuesday was probably the only performance under Des I can truly say I thought we played well. Even in our wins I've thought we've been average at best.

We've had the window to strengthen, which is what we were told we have to wait for before we judge Des, and I don't really think we have.

We look completely lost 99% of the time.

O'Donkor did well. Youre an embarrassment. No wonder he's lost confidence if he gets mobbed by keyboard warriors after a perfectly respectable performance

4 touches of the ball according to the stats… He was brought on to do a hold up and chase job for us for 15 minutes and that’s all he managed. Hopefully for the last time.

Capitulated in the last 20 mins and got the result we deserved again. Hard to argue with 2 points in 4 games.
 
Letting leads slip is s bit rubbish atm for sure and the subs didn't work today from that choice on the bench
 
Weird to single out O’Donker in a poor overall 2nd half performance from the entire team. But it’s easier to have a fall guy to lay into. Doesn’t require the effort of thinking or knowing much about football.

I didn’t think he did anything of note. Didn’t win any headers.

MJBs point was on transfers. Not sure specifically on GOD.

Precisely.

O’Donkor has been put in the farcical position of being one of our two main strikers for something like a year. That’s not his fault, it’s the club’s.

He needs to go and learn how to be a professional footballer in the men’s game a couple of tiers below this one. He’s learning nothing getting ten minutes not really getting involved.

It’s not helping him and it’s certainly not helping the club.
 
Well that was truly dire, both sides way off being good enough for the Championship.

Good job Manning got us enough points for avoidance of relegation. Otherwise this would be a DESaster.

Whilst calling him " the work experience lad." does wonders for him and his confidence.
 
It seems that sides have learnt that if they press us relentlessly, and generally don't give us time on the ball, we can't really deal with it. And I'm not sure what the solution is there.

Oh look who the cat brought in.
 
Still calming down from that. Pathetic overall, especially last 20. I've said before, Des honestly makes Kemp look like Arrigo Sacchi when it comes to tactics and game plans. A good coach does not a football league manager make.
