How did we lose?

Another game against a Play Off Rival in which we shouldnt have lost and somehow did.

First half Solihull impressed, We got the goal against the run of play.
2nd half, we started well, hit the post, missed chances.
Game changed on Efete. Smith isnt a right back. Solihull exploited it, we left a big lump on his own in the box twice and he finished twice.
Should we have changed it? Not sure, JMD was shattered, sousa on was a standard change. PH already getting pelters on twitter- as im Sure PontoonLew is gonna be on here blaming him.

We didnt deserve to lose, bad luck and rank bad defending cost us that. Pure and Simple. End result- we just cant find ways to put games to bed, and its cost us

We deserved to lose because we didn't take our chances and they did. If I was Dieseruvwe or Scannell I'd be seething with Hurst. There's no way Taylor or Sousa should have been on the pitch ahead of either of them on current form. He's got his favourites and they've cost us tonight (along with some utterly abject keeping from Crocombe to present them with an equaliser on a plate).

I suppose it could be argued that bad defending and an inability to put the game to bed is exactly why we did deserve to lose. If Efete injury's bad we need a new right back in asap.

How long before people accept that our terrible form against decent sides isn’t bad luck, but poor management?

I’ve supported Town for over 20 years and remain convinced there’s not been a manager more frustrating than Hurst. There’s been excrement ones, there’s been 1-2 good ones but there’s definitely not been one as frustrating. He can spot a decent player, build a good cohesive squad etc but why is he so intent on making the same errors every single week? I’ve seen it for years, it’s a constant cycle. Negative approaches to games, good players left out and consistently shite substitutions. The issue now is the fact the teams aren’t as poor as our last visit here and they’re finding him out every week.

Rapidly falling out of love with it all, purely because of its infuriating predictability.

And therein lies the problem. We don't take chances when they present themselves.

Should have won Saturday and we got a draw. Should have got a draw tonight and we lost.

Getting fed up now. Two decades of being either in the league and being mid table at best or relegation fodder at worst, interspersed with visits to non league where we are always on the verge, but never quite good enough.

Another nothing season in a very long and boring stretch of nothing seasons.

The one thing that got me was our crossing. Every cross, or corner was easily taken out by the keeper. They put one good cross in and scored the winner.

Scannell scores at Yeovil, gets benched for Borehamwood then completely dropped for tonight. Something not right.

Yeah very harsh on him.

I still state the game changed on Efete going off- which on reflection losing your right back shouldnt really do that- but JMD was knackered, Smith is not a RB and solihull ran riot on it.
