With Theo Widdrington, Ben Stephens and Jordan Ponticelli all out, probably more likely a lack of options for Tommy to work with.

Tommy knows what he wants and needs. Seems he’s not being given the chance to get it sorted which he must feel very disappointed with considering the amount of money he’s recently brought to the Club with his Cup run.

First little mini crisis of the season.  Darlo and Scarborough both win while Brackley grab a point, sees us slip to 4th.   Things could get worse tomorrow night as a Chester win will see us slip to 5th just ahead of inform Fylde who are in 6th place.

Looks like being without Widdrington, Ponticelli and Stephens has finally caught up with us.

Saturday is now a very important game let’s hope the Fans turn out in numbers to give the team a lift.
What if the Hokey Cokey really is what it’s all about ?

He had enough available to pick a team that could pin back and beat a team at the bottom.  He chose a line-up that had no chance of dominating the game.  We always do worse than usual with a line-up like that. I’m afraid a disappointing night was very predictable.

I wouldn't put my money on that one, would you?

We will come good again but tbh I just can’t see where the goals will come from ,let’s be honest we got lucky Saturday and now tonight ,I think our FA cup momentum bubble has burst and now we’re back to the nitty gritty of the league 4big games coming up and personally would want 7-9 points from those brackley /spennymoor going to be tough after nights like tonight , can’t see us get a 1000 in the walks until Boston weather like it is can only see the hardcore turning up

Unfortunately predictable before a game too!  Our poorest results this season always occurred when we, or any other team, pick a team with 5 defenders and a goalkeeper.  We could have omitted a defender and added a forward alongside Gold tonight against virtually the BOTTOM team in the league.

FIVE defenders and still leaked two goals ?  Slightly concerned on the defensive side at the moment, as we are looking edgy and whereas we were rock solid in that dept...
On the attacking front, let’s face it Other than the hardworking ponticelli we have have never really addressed the centre-forward goalscoring scenario....But, let’s not panic and hope we turn around our fortunes around quickly before we get lost in the hunt.
Good luck to everyone at the club 👏🏻👏🏻 💙💛🙏UTL

It had a similar 'feel'  to Kettering away earlier in the season.

Sticking Gold up front as a Lone Striker is madness - he needs at least one but preferably two feeding off his Flick-Ons. Gold is not the niblest guy with his feet to run at defences.

It might have been better to have started Ken Charles alongside Gold whilst Ponticelli, Stephens and Widdrington are unavailable.

He's not the nimblest, but even if he was, he'd find it difficult to get on to his own knock downs.
Needs someone up with him, seen it many times this season.
