so as expected no loans bought in to cover our injury struck side, shows a real lack of ambition or urgency and expect a loss today unfortunately against a team who have all the confidence

Ultra thin judging by the team this afternoon, only four outfield players all defensive minded and one is a first year pro,no forwards at alI. I do not believe in conspiracy theories and theorists are just baco foil covered weirdos but there has got to be a very good reason why even short term loans have not been brought in. There is absolutely no reason to wait for another month or so until the players you have chosen becomes available , if they become available, You are betting all your eggs into not being forced into getting emergency loans of dubious quality if any more players get injured today, and knowing our luck on that score I would not bet against it. If we get a draw today it will be a bonus.

I think Johnson has blown the budget on injured prone players who are past their best (Hall and Moxey) and players who are not good enough for this level (too many to mention). This is the level we have sunk to, hoping for a draw against part-time St Albans!culmstockgull wrote: ↑19 Aug 2023, 14:22 Ultra thin judging by the team this afternoon, only four outfield players all defensive minded and one is a first year pro,no forwards at alI.

Yes pathetic isnt it. St Albans made 3 substitutions in the first half in their mid week game. The first one was their centre forward after 20 minutes with a dead leg. They brought on another striker Shaun Jeffers.
Jarvis played the whole game despite being injured after 20 minutes - this team is being criminally mismanaged.

It will be interesting to see how we line up today with no Jarvis in the squad.
I’m going with my heart and predict a hard fought win - St Albans 1:2 Torquay
