Yes, when it's only 1-0and we are fighting for our lives. Would have liked to see Yeoman instead of Benyon on.

Did anyone honestly think we were going to get anything from this game? I thought we'd be pumped, but we lost 1-0 against a side who's top of the league and had the opportunity to be promoted today.

Forget today and turn your attention to our game against Barnet! That is such a huge game and we just need to support the lads.

Today ended fine. Howe didn't get booked, seemingly nobody injured, we didn't get hammered, Morris got some game time, stayed out of the bottom 2.

Toughest game of the run in out of the way. Three massive games to come, but all winnable

Agreed.
An appropriate balance of realism and optimism. Well done!

The blind optimism shown by some is highly admirable but our club has been poor for much of the season and yet again, the lack of goals will be our undoing.

All supporters identified this back in October and expected something to be done in January............nothing. We got Benyon and the yellow tinted spectacles came back out but did anyone really think he was the answer to our problems? The grim reality is that tonight we sit third from bottom of the league and in desperate danger of losing our league status AGAIN.

The Barnet match is now THE game and only a win will suffice. Even then, we're still going to need something from one of the other two games.
TUFC never fails to let its fanbase down.

27/08/18 - Time to step back from this shambles and focus on things in life that make me happy. TUFC doesn't.

Today was obviously always going to be a tough game. But without basing anything on this game alone, our team evidently lacks the spirit and backbone (without even considering ability) for the position we find ourselves in. We have now left ourselves with 2 must-win home games. Does anyone really think that extra pressure will make those games easier?

Happy with that - 1-0 to a team going up, with RICE in goal remember!!!!

HUGE HUGE game v Barnet to come. Win that and we could be safe, lose and we are almost definitely down.

Many said we would be bottom two today, we are not (albeit that the Shots have two games in hand, but it's points that count).

COYY - BELIEVE!!!!

Gargs second was an o.g when do we ever get a break like that. More stomach churning crap from that clown Sparkes on Radio Argyle. By the way they only paid £750 for their pitch. What a shame we cant get away with cheating like that.
