Bottled it. Barnet were not that good but we didn't want it
I'm normally very positive, there is nothing positive..

More fight in a dead convention at a morgue

when we got to 2-2 that is when we needed Whitfield and Newby to come on.. Show a bit of intent and put them on the back foot... Risk losing 1 point in order to seek out another two

Bringing Whitfield on at 87 mins at 3-2 down, like-for-like was just pointless.

Down We Go!
I will be there Tuesday Night to see my last game in the football league on Holker Street because I can't make the Newport game. At my age the chances are probably won't see it again-though you never really do know.

Getting rid of Farman was one of the biggest
Mistakes of the season, cost us league football. Showed against Salford (former ac Milan player scores against former holker old boys) , the level is to much of a step up,

6 points needed from next 2 home games, 4 points at the very minimum or we are down

Down and out.. why not go for the jugular at 2.2? Should have thrown everyone we had at it. We didn't..

It’s all but over.

We are rubbish and have been all season. We got recruitment and management all wrong.

I don't even feel sad anymore I'm beyond that now just absolute disappointment because in January the board had a golden chance to fix this ,they didn't and since then it's been one disaster after another!
If we don't learn ( the board) we'll struggle in the National league!

Farman would have still played with the bag of shite in front of him.

This seasons failure is down to poor recruitment and poor managerial appointments.

Correct. We always one poor summer of recruitment from the drop and this was it.

I’m singing now, think that’s the nail firmly in the coffin for our survival hopes. Cannot understand Whitfield not playing, has he still got a slight niggle? Why has Stanway been selected game after game when it’s clear he’s shite, if true what did daddy say when he marched down to the training ground? If we went down fighting it wouldn’t seem as bad but they gave up a while ago, what if the fans gave up and didn’t attend our last couple of home games
everyone is entitled to their opinion, deal with it
