Written by It has been a pretty relax schedule for my Thurrock team this month. We just have to play 3 matches for the whole February. Here is the results..
Even though the opposition is not very strong, but we only managed 1 win, 1 draw and 1loss. That is very disappointing consider if we get maximum points, we will only be few points off the last play-off place.
vs Woking 0-0
Both team create almost same number of shots, but both team strikers keep their scoring boots at home. Look at the shots on target only 1 from both team. The game ended as a boring draw.
vs St Albans 2-0
They are now occupying the last place, so lack of confidence was certainly shown. But they managed to keep us at bay so it was stalemate for the 1st half. There was luck on the first goal scored as one of their player deflected a own goal in to give us the lead. This shattered their confidence even lower and my young striker David Knight scored 5 minutes later to put the match beyond them.
vs Eastleigh 1-2
They were occupying the last relegation spot, i thought it will be fairly easy game for us. We suffered from over confidence and they taught us a lesson. We were 2 goals down in the 1st half. Things got worse in the second half, my midfielder Wayne Graves got sent off for two bookable offence. Though we managed to pull a goal back through David Knight, it was just consolation. We really deserved to lose. I got nothing to complain.
After the 3 matches played, we are in 10th place 7 points off the last play-off place. Here is how the table looks like..
In March there is 5 matches for us to play some catch up. My team need to be at their best, else another performance like against Eastleigh we will be staying in Blue square south for another season. I hope they don’t disappoint me and the fans…
The loss the bottom side hurts. I hope your players can pick themselves back up from that disappointment and start to produce the results you need.
You could do with just a few bits of luck going your way, and some of the teams above losing points to each other, to help bring you back in touch with the playoffs.
Thank you very much for your encouragement. As what you said, i think my main problem is consistency for the team. I certainly hope that they will bring me some good results for the coming month.
Never tried a llm game,I think I'm a bit lazy to start from the bottom!
You still have some chances to gain a playoff spot this year, but no more mistakes will be allowed mate!
By the way, the white background is better.
Good luck!
Thank you very much for your advice Paine. I think i need to instil some winning mentality to my team. Hope they dot not disappoint me and the fans.
