The former Bristol City player has endured a miserable 12 months in charge of the Gulls, as he led them to relegation from the National League last season, and now find themselves in mid-table in the National League South, 10 points off leaders Woking already.”

We are now at the same point, as today’s scores are going, 10 points behind Yeovil, been relegated from NL and have endured a miserable 29 (Owers got 12) month period. PLUS Owers left behind a decent team, this team of no hopers are no way comparable to Ower’s team. It’s not only gone full circle but we are in a far worse state on the pitch stuck in NLS.

the opposition more than us ! They are the ones who play the slick quick passing on the ground.
We play a mix of ground passing and long ball, the ground passing often resulting in the ball going backwards and ending up with a long ball anyway. Other teams seem to know exactly what they are doing whereas in our passing build up play, there is often that slight hesitation of 'who's in a good position to pass it to. We are ponderous and there doesn't seem to be that understanding that other teams have.
