After watching such a half hearted cup exit I don't know where to begin. Tonight's defeat has almost certainly shattered our hopes of breaking even this season. £11 K in prize money for beating Kidsgrove and Long Buckby, is that too much to expect? With this team? , Yes.
Kidsgrove fully deserved to win tonight because they were better than us. They wanted it more, and I do think Alan White promising a certain victory helped their manager with his team talk. Two down at half time (could have been four but for two great saves from Bazza). Second half we had plenty of possession but in 3 hours of football weren't able to score past a side that is two league's below us. Just not good enough!
So Kidsgrove is added to the list of shameful cup defeats. I really don't know where this squad goes from here because I dread to think what would occur if we play a decent team.
We left to chants of Kidsgrove singing, "Blue Square North, you're having a laugh" and "Are you watching Alan White ?". Pretty Accurate.
There was an incident at the end when a disgruntled fan called Jason over to discuss the game, though it turned out he wanted his diesel money back
A bad night for the club, supporters, chairman, management and hopefully, the players .
Serious improvement is needed if this season is going to pick up.
