It is happening pretty much every game regardless of result. 

We look awful at the moment 

Aye, confidence is fragile for sure- can play good stuff but unless they're streets ahead, then there is this doubt.

The formulaic nature of the subs must give indication to the opposition too.

Keep in the game and have a go late on.

Thank fuck for that. Quality first half with some brilliant football,  second half we looked like a conference side. Santos dominant 1st, then one sloppy pass and he completely lost his head. 

Charles and Victor both defending from the front, Dan and Bod almost invisible.  

Still three points in the bag, just need more of that first half performance

A win is a win but game should of been done by 60 mins. Once we get a lead we lose urgency and are just happy to slowly pass the ball about. It invites the opposition to press and have a go. There's no killer instinct whatsoever. So fragile once we concede. We turn into a different team and even the happiest of clappers should see that it's a concerning pattern that keeps happening.

As Sven seemed to say a lot when managing England - 1st half good,  2nd half not so good. 

Take the win all day, but not really sure what to make of the last half hour.

Went from  cruising against a poor team to hanging on.

Obvious the team is low on confidence once it becomes tight.

Understandable I suppose but they can be way better than they are showing.

On to Wycombe, 3 points would be great 😀

Crack’s papered for me

comfortable for long periods against a poor side

however it’s a win let’s see against better opponents next week 

Daft isn't it- we're fourth with the chance to move up further with a game in hand.

Yet it's not convincing. 

As you say, some tough aways coming up. 

One thing of note, is that the team is largely made up of players from last season. No problem with that per se- those same lads may be improving- but does it perhaps suggest Evatt doesn't yet trust the new players as regular starters?

The same formation and substitutions each week, and little to show later in games.

Predictable, and I wonder if there are frustrations amongst some players.

We'll see over the next few games where exactly we're at.

They ran around him second half like he wasn't there. He just gets pissed off, that's not leadership.  Couldn't lead an under 11s team. Nobody including Lego head has any ounce of leadership in that team. Wilt under any sort of pressure. 

What about the other, more senior players?

Folk seem ready to pick up on Thomason far more readily than any of the others.

Should he necessarily be the one having to ball and shout and pull others through,

Of course he should do his bit, but so should others.
