Not sure which was more frustrating, the Hadley goal after 35 seconds or their third just after we’d got it back to 2-1.
Oh well, onto the next one, let’s give Bedford another game next week.

Frustrating game. Maybe conceding the goal so early completely killed the game plan but I felt tactically it just didn't work. So many of our usually consistent players were off today as well.
On a positive note, I thought Beadle played well. So confident on the ball and Pearce important as always.
We also desperately need Ty fighting fit for these games against similar quality sides. He was the difference last season. Once he was pushed central today he caused them problems.
Let’s bounce back against Bedford next weekend!

Was the first game I've been to in a long while but that first half was up there with the worst I've ever seen. It wasn't just individual errors, it was just piss poor all round. 2nd half was better, Rocco our best player and Ty made a difference. Think we look really lightweight, Hadley so much more streetwise and better at the dark arts. Officials fell for their play acting every time. Highlight was the Hadley fans songbook, some great chants from them.

can understand why the manager went with the same formation that has served us well over the last few games, but it was obvious after 20-30 mins we needed a different game plan against a 'lesser' team.every time they broke first half it looked like a goal was possible; in contrast we had nobody to hold the ball up n it constantly came back at us Brings on Ty but plays him left midfield? ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) ? didn't deserve anything n got nothing. poor performances from Jake n Derek(particularly), which I hate to say but that's the truth. First time we've played a team from the bottom half n we blew it big time. sorry to be negative but that wasn't v. good

Derek had very good games against Dunstable and Waltham Abbey so I can forgive him a below average game yesterday.
FWIW I don’t think Hadley are a bottom half side. It was only a matter of time before they started picking up points and I would expect them to be pushing for the play offs come the end of the season.
Everything just seemed a bit flat yesterday, maybe it was the weather or just a bit of a comedown after the efforts of the previous two Saturdays? Not to worry though, we’ll try move on as always.

I know negativity is frowned upon by some on here but yesterday was dire . Apart from Beadle , Pearce , the new lad Max , of course Callan and maybe one or two more the rest were well below average , at best . Roccco for example imo he's either excellent or not very good but as Andy Martin pointed out to me he's young and learning his trade , okay I get that but I lost count of the number of times he pulls his opponent by his shirt or arm giving unnecessary free kicks away...surely that can be cut out of his game....immediately . Ty coming on was positive but only when he played centrally ! Jack and the players have done great recently but Jack stating all we have to do is cut out silly mistakes would make us the only team in world football who've succeeded in doing that . What was even more disappointing for me was that Hadley weren't that great either but they bossed us certainly in the 'how to con the ref' stage....given most teams do this why can't we too be smarter , or is this not the Aylesbury way . Next week everyone needs to be on their A game physically , mentally attitude and concentration levels ...surely giving the opposition that's a given .

I don't think negativity is frowned up on as such it's just that it tends not to achieve as much as positivity does. Given we all support a club that's been without its own ground for 17 years it's only natural that negativity tends to creep in every now and then.
I would expect Rocco to grow out of that habit pretty quickly the more minutes he plays at Step 4. I suspect we shouldn't get too fond of either him or Hayden as it would be naïve to think that word isn't going around that there's two talented young players more than holding their own with Aylesbury United at Step 4. I would expect both players to progress in a similar manner to how Jamie J and Ty D have over the next few years.
I too would prefer to see Ty playing centrally but I'm not sure he fits the false 9 role as well as Dave does. Ty's physical presence makes him a very obvious number 9 rather than a false one!
We've given Bedford a good game once already this season, I see no reason why we can't do the same again on Saturday.

It was a bad day at the office but these things happen. I thought Rocco looked much more effective in the second half when he was on the right wing, vs. the first half when he was playing on the left. In the second half he sat a couple of their defenders on their bums and got me off my seat! he almost scored a corker near the end too. Beadle was tidy on the ball but seemed to lack a bit of confidence to take the opponent on, hopefully that will come. Ty makes things happen when he's on the pitch but I agree he's more of a 'real number 9' and not a 'false 9'- I hope we can get him into the system somehow cos I just feel we look like more of a threat when he's on. It took us so long to register a shot on target. Anyway, onwards and upwards!

Now that is a good signing , welcome back to the club . Don't know where the money came from to entice him back but he's certainly a class act .

Depends on your view of what negativity can mean , in my book Lee if individuals listen it's constructive not everything has to be glossed under a positive banner . Agree totally about the futures of Rocco and Hayden two players with outstanding potential . If the new player plays Saturday that massively enhances our chances against Bedford .

It would appear not all the Gold Club members were aware of Ken's signing before the news broke ....immediate process review required tut tut tut .

No one ever said GC members would have signings announced to them before they became public knowledge; the club will never announce a signing until the ink is dry on the contract.
