Becoming a joke

[justin]

We have lost 17 points from winning positions this season it's a joke now surely we should start looking what's happening in training that's the season over now

[weareleeds]

The worse thing about these dropped points most in added time aswell I'm afraid it's not good enough from both manager and players can't see many bothering to turn up next week

During the past few years we have had some of the best central defenders in our league...but for various reasons we have lost them. We have an excellent goalkeeper who must be fed up with the constant dross in front of him. Drury must be so frustrated that this season eight of our better players have moved on to higher levels. That they have been so sought after means that Gresh still has the ability to find and sign good players...but what the Daniels offer them is not enough to keep predators at bay. With poor results and falling attendances I don't see how we can keep a settled, promotion challenging squad together other than through better coaching. We don't have the dosh to throw around that other clubs seem to have so learning to get the best from the average players already here is a must. Perhaps the board should take a critical look at our coaching sessions to see how they can be intensified. We desperately need to get up to Level Three, the slightly easer route being via the Southern League. Star players will still be poached by richer clubs but the general standard of the squad should be better as bigger attendances generate more funding.

Another disgusting result. No point clearing out now in my opinion. Let this current lot finish the season here. They've got 7 games to try and prove us all wrong, they're playing for their futures at this club; and with the most recent results, so is the manager.

That’s now 1 win in 9, that was the 2-1 home win against a team that hadn’t won since October, everyone was aware we were hanging on in the end.

We’ve draw 4 of the last 5 from winning positions, 3 of those we were 2 goals up and conceded in injury time.

Take away the 3 wins from the start of the season and we’ve amounted 34 points from 29 games, that’s relegation form.

I so badly wanted Drury to succeed, I was one of the ones on here that pleaded his case, the others have disappeared, we’ve had 3 seasons of failure now (sorry 3 3/4) yes there have been some high points, namely the fa cup first round appearance, the play off win at Frickley.

But I think, why pay these players that have failed, release the ones that realistically won’t be here next season and play the youth players, your going to save thousands for next seasons budget.

IF Drury was to go, I want to see Jimmy Dean here, just think what he could do with our budget

[sparkymark]

It's always the same in most leagues, a team that lost in the play offs final like us who had the best defence in the league never does as good the season after especially after losing our back four!!
I don't think greash can be blamed for the players leaving, yes money is a big part of it but so is the amount of traveling these players do.
When he brought in Greg smith it could have all been so different had he not got sent off for a stupid elbow and banded for 4 games.
Kern leaving has left a big hole in the defence.
We're not a million miles away from being up there, we do pass the ball around well, most of you moan about us playing a long ball game and then your still moaning about us playing the ball around the back four and pulling teams out of position.
Yes the last few games we've been in a wining position and lost in the dying seconds but that's football, "it's a funny old game"!!
We all have our opinions but we're not getting the rub of the green like we did last season.
As much as we all moan we will all still be there supporting the next game.
Jimmy Dean the next manager 😂😉😂😂 we should have beat them in the cup this year and they are in a much easier league than we are, this league is tough, most teams are as good as each other and we are just a few players away and some luck from being up there.

[anon]

Have slated him at every game we’ve played them. Even been offered out by one of their lot for saying so. But how much would I love Jimmy Dean at the Zeeci

[swjfc]

any truth drury resigned after the game on sat?

[StamfordShrew]

Elliot Sandy thinks so on his Twitter

[justin]

Some one did say he did if he did and now he has changed is mind what dose that say abount whatvis happening at the club the players wont respect him

[dwatch]

You all talk about the team as if all the players are rubbish don't tar them all with the same brush there are good players amongst them that I see are as frustrated as we are too many bad decisions by done players not all that are visiting us points
But let's not call all of them out there are three or four quality players in there that just are t getting the support they need from supporters and team mates alike

[dwatch]

Costing us points DAMN PREDICTIVE TEXTS

[weareleeds]

For me the best players are Burgess, Mike Armstrong, Danny haystead and if given enough time boachie and Gregg Smith the rest have been disappointing this season by last year's standards

[StamfordShrew]

Got to add Morgan to that, Delroy Gordon was the unsung hero from last season, think our season would have panned out a bit differently had we not lost him.

[dwatch]

Burgess, Morgan, Haystead I agree but Smith can't be a long term hope he will become a liability due to refs punishing him for his style of play
We need 2 good strikers and better defenders and just as important a new captain someone with a voice

[y]

i do not think smith is the player he was, the only reason he wares the number 6 shirt is because it is the only shirt that he can get into. apart from the goal keepers shirt. and i do not think i would like to see him in goal next season.

[weareleeds]

Did you see their keeper was probably same size and he wernt very good just shows how bad we where yesterday

[tonyf]

Or to look on the bright side. Looks like the Gingerbreads will be ok.👌
