Getting really fed up of this ,

I don't mind losing but least go down fighting , how will afc attendences ever grow if we continue to lose week in week out ,

Sorry but a few players who played today out not good enough , really praying we get a new manger in fast , fresh ideas hopefully better players and more importantly better results ,

Totally agree. Even when went scored first, it was like we were losing. Some Players seem to forget that the fans have paid to see them play for 90 mins not walk around hoping the ball comes to them

Very poor all round today. Did anyone emerge with any credit? Ben perhaps, Sonny for his 1st half play........and this waas against the team in 20th!

I'm afraid it's relegation for us Danny, if we dont get something sorted very quickly

Yeah agree jools, major changes needed , the players look really low in confidence ,
If I'm honest not sure why we re signed Jamie Rudd , I personally don't think he offers much to the team , Alex at right back was out classed today , be nice when max is back , still look toothless up front ,
Pray we get new manager in and sorts this mess out,

Totally agree jools

Were we really that bad ? While I'll agree it's starting to look like we are in for another poor/mediocre season, I really don't think we need talk of relegation for several months yet, we have to give this management team a chance. Aston & Sonny were my pick of the players today. Steve Bateman in the crowd again today, does he live local

Condidering the oppo, yes

Chalfont were at best " average"

Let's face it we made chalfont look a lot better than they really are ,

I didn't think Chalfont were that bad. On a positive note, nice to see a near post flick on from a corner, I could count the amount of times we've done that in four seasons on possibly one hand.

Well it looks like we will have a new manager in the next week or two my sources tell me. I won't say who it is yet but he is very experienced but will need a decent budget to do well!! But I feel this is exciting news! I will expect lots if new faces by Xmas!!!!

Poor performance by all i am afraid..sonny looked lively in.1st half but went quiet like the rest of them.in 2nd half.How do we change so much in one season..up and down in performances..

Sounds like the gentleman mentioned before who was at the match today.  

You are right, he will demand financial support. Which is ironic considering some of the comments on here tonight.

Yep, a name was mentioned before I said but I won't confirm or not if it is Mr Bateman. But what I have been told is that a certain person has been appointed but hasn't been confirmed by the club yet. But Im sure it will be pretty quickly now it's been mentioned on here.

I would be amazed if anything is announced before the Marlow game on Tuesday even if, like you say, the decision has been made, which, unless you are DM yourself, you would never know!! Love the speculation though! And to suggest merely because something is mentioned on here it will force the powers that be to release information is hilarious!! lol, needed that!

TG this is where you are very wrong! I do know I also know they wanted to keep it very quiet even more so after DM put all the stuff in the paper about happy at the moment and not actively seeking a new manager! But you are right I can't see them naming him before Tuesday !! My sources are people very close to the club and DM

Very cloak and dagger! There are no safe places! Is it definitely one person or a couple in the frame, or has the decision been made as I believe there is a committee to consider, not just DM's decision!!

As a bit of a footnote, MF and I were a bit upset not to see Mark Eaton today. What with Smiffy in the stands, Craig on the pitch we could have had a hat trick of Ex FC managers. Add Bateman in the crowd and i think there were more managers than supporters at today's game.

Let's just hope who ever comes in can change things because at present it's only going one way

The last time that things went from bad to good this season was when Craig did the tea cup scenario after the game.....perhaps we need someone who is prepared to tell it like it is at half time and after the game, instead of tippy toeing around.
After all, there are far more players at this level than clubs....!
Thoughts...!

Out of the current squad if you was the new manager which players would you say good bye to,
Got to be honest Aswell mine would be ,
Jamie Rudd ,Alex k, Kwasi , jack Thompson , like price but his attitude lately and commitment been poor and can't have that in team sport ,

I think if you have to rip into players regularly at h/t something is seriously wrong.
"After all, there are far more players at this level than clubs....!" , good job Chatty, must mean there's still  one or two we havn't tried yet

Things started to go really wrong at the Dunstable & Shortwood games. Could the club have moved quicker then? I know there was an Indian summer of results after that but it was only papering over the very large cracks.

I would put it down to self belief from the players. As soon as a result didn't go our way, they thought we are back to the start of season run and wasn't going to win for a while. A step back is needed to have an outside look who is playing and where, plus we need competition for positions
