Th'East Midlands Whites are just back and are drinking heavily

In tough uncertain times there's always one constant in your life... 

Another great away day following our team. 

Today's a reality check, we're going down so stop stressing about formations, how shit certain players are, the manager chewing spiggy,  etc, etc....

Just be thankful that we've got games to go to. That we can get pissed watching the Wanderers, have a crack with other supporters and each other.

Those who left at 3 or 4 down don't bother coming again. You obviously don't get it.

I didn't make it today because of family reasons. I alway's  liked going to the S Yorks matches in the mid 70s because it reminded me of what a shithole it was on the train passing all the industry what they had, and folk getting on the train at Sheffield and heading for Wigan Casino after the match.

They’ll get a free pass because they’ve not been together long but that was a disgraceful performance today. It’s been two weeks supposedly they’ve been on the training ground together but it didn’t look like that today. Verlinden and Politic look great in possession but are a complete liability when we don’t have the ball hence the number of times the full backs were overloaded two vs. one. They only player I saw put in a tackle all day was Lowe. Very, very poor. Regardless of the circumstances. Emmanuel looked like he is running through treacle all the time. Massive, massive mountain to climb.

Another great day spoiled by the result. For those few minutes after we scored though, it was wonderful. That fleeting period of euphoria was why I and many others go. Pretty sure there will be many more. Keep the faith.

It was definitely up there as an iconic moment when we scored. Everyone went crazy and i wouldn't have missed it for the world.

Teams generally finish a season then train together for a few weeks before going through several friendlies to get match fit and ready for the season - that's players who were mostly together the previous season. We don't have that and they have been pulled together for less than two weeks; they are also free signings of not high quality so what do you expect.

KH knows some of these and probably knows by working with them for a few weeks then he will start to get more out of them and we can then start to compete a little. It doesn't help when we had one player hurt in a car crash and three others out with injuries.

It will get better but its going to be slow improvement each week

To the bell ends who screamed at the team & highlighted every mistake today & then left early, please fuck off.

Wycombe away was a bloody brilliant moment in time without numpties.

The team need to gel, we need a unit upfront, we need Bridcutt to sign for 3 years & we need Alnwick back.

OINO

 

Yeh Wycombe was a special day and up there in my top ten BWFC away days. I didn’t hear any negative shouts near where i was today, but did see a few sneaking out after the 4th went in. Maybe some folk were expecting a Barca type performance from us.

If you went today expecting anything other than a defeat then you're in cuckoo land.

Enjoyed it but must admit wasn't expecting such a big defeat, but Rotherham will be one of the better teams we face.

Funny moment on the train station after, when a copper was warning our fans to step back from the platform and they ended up having a whipround of a tenner each to pay him so he could tazer the gobby one. 

Think they were Little Hulton lads.

Rotherham were 15th at the start today. Let’s not delude ourselves. Yes today was always highly unlikely to be much other than a defeat. But currently we are further away from competing at this stage of a season I can remember. That isn’t surprising or unexpected. Like you I thought we’d lose but maybe narrowly. Today was a wake up call. Roll on promotion push next season from league two.

15th means nowt at this stage of the season, they will be challenging for promotion.

I'm resigned to League 2 next season but I've never felt more like supporting BWFC than I do now.

 

League 2 all day 

anyone who thinks we will stay up needs sectioning 

Anybody who got giddy and thought we'd start winning from today was deluded. If we win one this month I'll be pleasantly surprised. Going to be another difficult season to watch but we need to stick together, be patient and keep getting behind the team. Even 9/10 signings still leaves us with a threadbare squad, and a lot of those signing were available for a reason

 

On a positive note......

 

 

 

 

 

...we exist! YAY!

We hit the back of the net, we must rejoice for that alone after the goal drought.

Have you been sniffing glue? 

As Hoppy said, we exist. Nothing else matters this season.

We all know that there will be a few highs against many lows so enjoy them when they do come along.

Thanks Yoda. 

Ladapo was the more eyecatching but thought Matt Crooks ran everything for them and we just couldn't get a grip on the middle at all.

Positives for me were Chicksen and maybe Bridcutt who looked very willing, lot of basic errors all around though.

Some near us seemed to be chosing their scapegoats already, just have to hope the recent unity lasts.

We're going down but we've got a whole season to build for next year and we exist. I didn't expect much more from yesterday but I was surprised to find a flat cap on the floor after the match, someone had given up already

Think we're all still at the stage where we're happy we've got a club to support.

Clearly though, shipping 4/5/6 every week will wear thin soon enough. 

Yesterday we looked what we were,  a team playing its first game.

It will get better.
