Moore should have stayed on his line instead of rushing forward and making contact with their player, so definite penalty and Tollitt gave the ball away too easily in a dangerous position allowing them to score their third. Saying that we kept going and every player gave 100% but we do lack quality, hardly surprising for a team/squad of players thrown together at no cost (we all know where the blame lies for that). Win, lose or draw I will keep supporting the team because at the end of the day there are 23 clubs in league two who are financially more secure than we are because of our ownership situation. I just wish all our supporters could take on board the dire situation our club is in and until we get an owner prepared to really support the club, we, the supporters, might not have a club to support next season.

I'm with you on this BW 100 percent. We just were never at the foot of the table. Signing players who the majority barring 2 or 3 wouldn't get into any other League 2 side and the ownership issue been this bad.

And Jim used to get a lot of support based on his budget yet Derek gets loads of stick. See where we are on the last game of the season.

Yes Keith, some people are even saying bring Ged back! They must be sniffing glue. If you were at the game yesterday you would have heard the booing and some of the comments. I believe some of the nut jobs that post on FB are also calling for Dereks head.

Yup, I know, it is a Pavlovian response. Derek is really up against it. Jim was always, really up against it. In his last season, he even had our dickhead owners putting on Facebook, whether Jim should have his contract renewed. That's really up against it. Now of course, everyone recognises that they were dickhead owners, sadly, we're still lumbered with them (one?).
When people like me said that finishing third from bottom in League Two was a success under Jim, you said it was loser mentality. Now, this season, even you recognise the reality. Third from bottom or higher is a success.
If there are some people calling for Derek to go, they are a small minority. Criticising him for making changes too late in the game is different.
I still think we will stay up, and that is because Derek is a superb manager. Saturday was frustrating, because I really thought after getting our first win, we'd go on a bit of a run. A stupid penalty in the first minute put paid to that. These things happen. Plus, Milton Keynes have a squad that is worth twenty times what ours is, if not more. What would their wage budget be compared to ours? Anyone seriously thinking Ged would return, yeah, I'll agree with you, they must be sniffing glue!
We pick up, and go again on Tuesday.

I'm afraid I don't and the reason is not that we'll not get enough points on the pitch but that we'll probably get a points deduction for something. We'll be very lucky to get through the season without a deduction and 'very lucky' is something we aren't.
