A rudderless ship

I’m not going to post a match report. PDWs report (which I will post after this) sums it up perfectly anyway. I’ve done enough ranting and whinging and actually, outside of football, I’m a really positive bloke and I get tired of the all of the negative stuff which is just too easy to write at the moment. Far from gently bobbing in the ocean, we’re sinking like a stone.

All I’m going to say is:

1. McNulty was at fault for two of the goals, so ironic bearing in mind Buckles reason for recruiting him. As utterly laughable as the man himself. If he was any good he’d still be at Fleetwood. He’s not, so he’s now playing for us. A footballing klutz.

2. LRT had the second worst game at left back I can remember, second only to his own performance against Newport***. He connected with one pass in the first half and one in the second. The rest of the time he passed, headed and threw it to the opposition. Passing to your own team is a fundamental part of playing football. Anyone, even my old mum, can not pass it, we can all stand there and not pass it – it’s the passing bit which is the skilful bit. He is not a left back. Picking him there was about as rubbish as LRTs performance itself.

3. This must be “yet another low”.

4. We’re only 11 points above the relegation zone.

5. Oh no – Braintree again next. Joy.

6. Best of luck to the new man coming in, bring your magic wand with you. How on earth does this club manage to turn good players so bad? How can players who were good or reasonable elsewhere become so shit at Luton and then be good again when they leave? I know what I think. Still…we’ll see…

I remember ‘Teacher’ on the Outlaws site saying portentously in the wake of the last administration, the -30 points and the chaos at the time that ‘things were going to get much worse before they got better.’ How right he was.

They shoot horses, don’t they?

***actually, I remember Alan Kimble having a stinker against Blackpool about 10 years ago, and I don’t recall Alan Goodall ever having a good game, he was a consistently poor performer. But anyway – I think you get my drift.
