Very drab performance. Lacked the noise to break them down

Was a real chance to build up momentum and put a few past a low quality team and give ourselves a confidence boost. Sadly we reverted back to our usual selves.

Most supporters would have settled for 4 points from the 2 games before 3pm on Saturday


Dead Eye Dobbin stood motionless waiting, waiting, waiting for the ball to arrive. Back came the right foot, Down came the right foot, Bang ! Headlines around the world as the ball flew into the very top right hand corner of the goal.( Jim Dobbin scoring in the 89th minute for Town against Newcastle United away 24/10/1992 )

To be fair we've been extremely effective at breaking down and beating weaker teams this season, especially at home. Our problem has been a dire record against the stronger teams particularly away. So typical town to follow up Saturday with tonight. Don't think we need to go too overboard tonight but less than 3 points on Saturday would make for a really disappointing week.

It's the same story going back years. The start to the season was a mirage. The truth is we have not been able to put a winning run together for years. Win one, lose several, win two, then draw against a team we should hammer at home. Until we get consistency we will remain in this league.

My God that was awful! I can't think of any positives other than we didn't lose. A complete and utter non event.

Started the second half brightly enough, had a couple of chances saved or blocked (looked like we should have had a penalty for handball as well) but the last 20 minutes or so we're just pathetically bad. Little movement and we lost the ability to string more than a couple of passes together. I think they probably had the better chances near the end simply by the ball deflecting to them in dangerous areas a couple of times when we misplaced passes time and again. The crossing tonight was just so, so bad.

To sum it up, the MotM was announced as Harry Clifton. He was OK but I wouldn't say he was any better than the rest of them. I'd say Waterfall probably did best for me but you don't really want a central defender to be your best player when you're up against a 9 man defence.

Really? Maidenhead, Wealdstone, Kidderminster, Aldershot? The fact is that Kings  Lynn have won 4 and lost 18 league games this season. And they’re still second from bottom. It looks as though we’re simply not up to it this year.

4 away games you've listed there though and even chucked in a cup game to top up the list. Kings Lynn are the first team currently below us in the table that we haven't beaten at home this season.
