I'm not sure we can claim misfortune. Make no mistake we've done this to ourselves and invited all the problems we're currently facing.

Didn't think they even paid that. Apperently the guy who layed the turf was offered .007p in the £ by the administrators

Didn't expect anything from today's game so not too disappointed, especially since we have minimised the effect on our goal difference.

The disappointment came from Argyle and Dagenham winning and Aldershot now having two games in hand.

I said before the York game that that was the biggest game in the Club's history since our Wembley triumph but that has been superseded by next week's game against Barnet. If we don't win it I think it will be almost all over because I can only see a maximum of two points from the last two games.

So lets all get down to Plainmoor next week and create a massive 12th man effect! COYY!!

In reality though that's 3 defeats in a row .. I know it's against promotion chasing teams but teams around us manage a victory against these teams, argyle today against Cheltenham and against city last week, Dagenham beating city today, rochdale hammering Fleetwood, it's clear we don't have the quality or mental ability to deal with this situation. I think we should play dirty for the last 3 games, hard tackles, shoot on sight .. We don't need attractive football now .. We need points and goals!

When was the last time the crowd created an atmosphere the players excelled in??????

Anyone thinking we can get something from the Rovers game are deluded. They have already sold their allocation of tickets and I know several supporters who have plans to come into the home sections. Plainmoor will be swamped by blue and white and believe me, they're coming to party.

This is a dark time and nothing other than a win against Barnet will give us any chance. As Gazza says, we don't have the mental attitude to deal with this. Too many players seem uninterested in our plight and the leadership at the top has failed dismally.
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.

Re Rovers...yes they already have purchased tickets in the home sections. Yes, they know about that at Plainmoor. Ticket Office girls told me last week that if they display colours or shout, they will be escorted out.

I can only imagine the stewards will be well up for escorting scores of Rovers fans out of the ground. In reality, if they turn up in big numbers, they'll be free to do whatever they please, and the club will be left to stand by and hope for the best. Much like in every other aspect of our season in fact.

Yes, right. We'll simply roll over and let them scratch our belly - can't wait to see them enforce that!

Optimism on our chances for survival is one thing. Blind optimism is another!. I wonder how demoralising it is standing on the pitch watching the Gillingham players celebrate promotion. Personally, I can't see that we have it in us to survive. Psychologically this is a damaged team. Our only hope is other results in my opinion.

So it all comes down to next week's game. Expected to get beat today, only 1-0 so we actually got a result and + GD is just enough to be an advantage through to the end....Win next week and may squeeze enough points by the end, draw won't be enough even though many will not 'stop believing' (sad that), lose and we will go down.....I'm sure that's the general feeling am I right ????

Why is it "sad" if some don't stop believing?
