Thats amazing insider knowledge considering you stated you were NOT friends with Nico

NO NO NO. This can never happen.

You misunderstand me. I agree the club cant use the young players as an excuse for our position.
What I meant is that it is not the fault of the young players and they shouldnt be blamed.

You actually said "we were awful looked like a parks team" so you were not just saying the atmosphere etc.

Frankly though its a waste of tine us arguing on a forum. We all need to be United against the creeping destruction of our club by malevolent developers who care absolutely nothing about TUFC and only about the mighty dollar.
The FA should do something about such toxic ownership of clubs but of course they dont care about fans either sadly.

As you like facts I didnt say I was satisfied, read the post.
I just pointed out we were the better team which was true.
Nobody can be satisfied by the state this club is in. It is utterly soul destroying. Just remember most of our team are young lads just starting out so we cant expect them to be winning games like a well oiled machine. The senior players need to step up.

I am sorry but to say we were awful today is not true. We were the better team but defensive mistakes and lack of finishing as usual cost us. Eastleigh were awful, a very poor team. 2 chances 2 goals. But thats what gets points.
We have ZERO leadership, the only time I heard our captain today was after the match! We have no knowledge of how to win football games or do the dirty stuff to dig out a result sadly.

Fair play to Efete who was a class above anyone else on the pitch. How Gosling gets MOM is beyond me. He is a show pony.

It all depends on League position. If we were top I dont see 1800+ being unlikely.

Prefer Bruise Pristine myself. Quality.

Frankly I dont care if Reidy claps the fans as long as he puts in a shift like he did today. I havent been a fan of his but he was excellent today.
MOM for me was Efete, cultured and imposing performance.
All round the team played well. Still chasing hard after 90 minutes and first to everything. Looks like a well coached set up and hopefully we will climb the table.
Orient look certain relegation fodder I am afraid.

Professional people in the football business do not post things like this on fans forums.
I have no problem with him offering his assistance but this was not the way to do it. Also its not compulsory for the manager to accept the offer.
Its unfair to say they are underperforming after so few games as well. Give them a chance.

Thank you for your considered and reasonable response.

If you were manager would you appreciate this being put on social media? I think not.

Thanks for the offer but I feel by posting this on social media you are undermining the manager.
It would be better to speak directly to Gary Owers than air the offer in public. Cant see him being interested now.

At least if we had the walruses we wouldnt be toothless in attack......
