Are we 3 at the back now or has Asa Hall gone to centre-back?

This sounds piss poor. Shouldn't be losing to this garbage.

Lose this game and its going to be the biggest disaster this side of Nagasaki.

Sendles-White gets subbed because he can't deal with the high ball - he's a centre half ffs.

We have sounded like a team at the bottom and low on confidence so far...…..shouldn't that be E Thurrock??

Biggest team talk for Johnson since he's been here - Lets hope he gets stuck right into this bunch of shrinking violets.

We are better than this.

ET seemed to have worked hard this half but surely will run out of steam in the second period. No doubt we will come out and put 10 past Weston on Saturday in front of a big crowd. That's not good enough - need to put on a performance in front of one man and his dog tonight.

Think that first half really highlights the lack of strength in depth we have got. Clearly JSW was having a nightmare at centre half and was rightly hauled off but having to switch Asa Hall back there means we have now lost our most combative midfielder and when you look at the “options” on the bench - there really isn’t much physicality is there?

I can understand what GJ is trying to do - keeping a tight knit squad - but when you look at Woking’s approach, they are quite literally pulling in players from all over the place (another one signed today!) - time will tell as to who has got the right approach, but on nights like this I do wish we had some better options to call on from the bench - don’t think ours is strong (in EVERY sense of the word!) enough tonight. Which means we have no real option to be able to change things or match them up with their physical approach on what is clearly a pretty lousy surface. Perhaps it is time to look to bring one or two in?
