Not good to hear the commentators saying that Kiddie "haven't had to work hard " for the lead they have.

Quote by Hargreaves on the main site under "Lets Us see The Reaction" -I can give them the confidence and the belief, and then it’s up to them.”


Not much evidence of confidence or belief - did you forget to give it to them Hargreaves or do they not believe what you say ?

Instead of making ridiculous assertions are you actually happy with this? you are listening to the game? its sounds like we are a shambles. We have two keepers neither of whom can do their job. A clown as a right back. Our best player is still sat on the bench. I have nothing against Thompson or Yeoman but really Thompson has been as near to the first team as I have this season. Its asking a fair bit for him to come into a losing team and do something.
As I type Seabright has nearly let another one in. Never mind signing Berry - the first thing that needs adressing in this team is the goalkeeping situation. Hargreaves is a tool.
His team selection today smacks of desperation.

Lets not forget that Hargreaves had half a season to keep us up but failed. A handful of wins against weak teams at the start of this season and Hargreaves gained some support but in recent weeks, the team has crashed and burned with a lack of discipline, lack of defensive stability and a sudden inability to score goals.

Worrying times.
TUFC never fails to let its fanbase down.

27/08/18 - Time to step back from this shambles and focus on things in life that make me happy. TUFC doesn't.

what do you want?

you posted earlier hes brought thompson in to use his pace against nicho
Yeoman has put in more effort than bowman recently so im more surprised the latter started
Yes tonge is crap - hence why we signed a RB this week - but as he hasnt played at all this year no surprise hes on the bench
GK - rice replaced by seabright who had a decent game last week, no surprise hes started today
Downes and Mcdonald - part of the long unbeaten run, again no surprise theyre together again, Pearce looked no better v alfreton

Last week Hargreaves said that our performance against Aldershot was nowhere near good enough. Him and Hodges have had seven days to sort it out. The result is we come out and are actually worse. Oh dear the goalkeeepers flapping at it again. The Kidderminster keeper has had nothing to do. We are a **** sick joke.

Are you Hargreaves dad or something you numpty. Our unbeaten run was light years ago. Pearce was playing next to a midfield midget against Alfreton having not played any football all season - You can play either keeper they are clearly not up to it. Pearce needs some game time. For christ sake Hargreaves didn't actually want to keep Downes.

I don't have to suggest anything. We have more resources than most of the teams that have been beating us. Its up to the manager to sort it out and he is failing miserably

Pearce looked out of sorts against Alfreton because Hargreaves felt it best to keep him out of 1st team football, little or no reserves type games AND - his master stroke, chose to pair him with Richards (a midfielder!) despite having a contracted player (Hutchings) on the bench AND after the first half still had the "confidence and belief" to keep that pairing for the second half.

I said when all were calling for Hargreaves to be appointed that he DID NOT have the experience to be a manager ......................... have I been proved wrong?

This sounds absolutely dreadful. Seabright must still be wearing his Martin Rice costume from last night - decent shot-stopper but scared to death of crosses. Tonge once again is a weak link. At least Hargreaves has addressed this by signing Berry but he hasn't played any football since the end of last season. I'd take Tonge off for Pearce and stick MacDonald at right-back for the second half.

I don't understand how Thompson is starting ahead of Ajala when he has been out of the picture all season. The only explanation is that he rinsed Nicholson during every training session when they were team-mates, but even if that was the case, surely Ajala should be playing ahead of Cameron based on recent form. No surprise we haven't had a shot on target with Bowman and Yeoman up front. Bowman has been awful over the last month and Yeoman has only really been useful as an impact sub. I assume Briscoe is injured unless Hargreaves has had a complete meltdown.

Ok lets see what Jesus can do. Its bollocking time surely. O'Archie and Ajala must start the second half surely.
