Beginning to doubt

I'm beginning to have my doubts about this team, from Morrell and Fowler right through the whole of the first team squad. It is Ok occasionally to come away from a game having been soundly beaten as long as you have given everything, that's football, it happens, and when it does it leaves you feeling down, fed up, and sometimes angry, but you should never come away from a game feeling embarrassed at your team. So far this season,

Boston (H) 0-3
Halifax (A) 0-4
Kidderminster (A) 0-6
Kidderminster (A) 0-4
Gainsborough (A) 2-3 (from 2-0 up)
Halesowen (A) 0-1
Farsley Celtic (H) 0-4
Nuneaton (H) 1-2
Nuneaton (A) 0-1
Halifax (H) 2-6

Every one of these performances embarrassing.

It seems to me that when the opposition sit back and allow us to play we are fine, when we need to win a physical battle, show some fight, aggression, spirit and heart we have nothing. We have a squad full of prissy little princesses that cower in the corner when there's a fight to be had, as I said, embarrassing. Yesterday's game against Halifax wasn't even men against boys, it was men against little girls, and I'm getting fed up of it. So, to all the players that we have that can't or won't battle and scrap for this club, I say sod off to somewhere I don't care about and let us bring in some players that will.

   Rant over, going for a lie down now.

Thanks for the balanced response Pilgrim, I was expecting to get dogs abuse for this one. As you rightly say, we are at the right end of the table and still in contention for the play-offs, however, the doom and gloom is justified in my opinion, when we have been embarassed as many times as we have this season, coupled with wondering where we might have been in this league if our players had a spine or actually gave a stuff.

We have one main issue, we Do Not have a Goalscorer,
Boston away should have been 1 up with a very easy miss & many other followed after we conceded. Lane went to Hospital with a head wound, Thomassen sent off.
Halifax away - very poor all round.
Kidderminster away - they were excellent, and on that night would have beaten anyone in our league or national.
           ".             ".    - once we conceded ever head dropped and I was great full it was only 4
Gainsborough away - many chance to score more, but you should never lose being 2 nil up against a poor side.
Halesowen away - embarrassing and even though it was a strong side, you have to wonder who they were playing for because it was not the club that nigh.
Farsley home replay - shocking once again who were they playing for, it was not the club that night
Nuneaton home - played very poorly yet had easy chances to have got something from it
Nuneaton away - far better performance and again missed chances could easily have got something from the game
Curzon home - poor performance but got 3 goals and the win still conceded 2 but got away from it
Halifax home - not sure what happened other than goals should have been 2 up before they scored, a certain amount of bad luck to say the least two deflected goals, a free kick which should, which we should of had one given earlier on half way line to us, Jack Lane was fouled as our last man, with his standing leg kick from under him, and there final goal is tipical of our throw in's, we give them away to easy, and in there half.
Halifax, Kidderminster and Nuneaton are full time, and therefore have longer to prepare for games.
Positives - may be hard to judge but
We kept going until the end, which is partly why they scored six
Arron Opoku and Kai Davis, did themselves proud, and ones for the future
2 week break so hopefully the injured players will be back except Ezwele, ( speedy recover & good luck to him)
We should start singing to Greeney "when will we see you again"
I.O.M. Lamb understand what you are saying, but I don't think it is the manager all the time, and yes it is time to bring a new face or two in, and not kids. Jed Davis not good enough, and Ellis Deeney is playing like he does not care and has all season, totally different to when he arrived, or he has been tapped up and wants away, and if that's the case get rid it not be great loss on his previous displays.
My rant over !

I O M Lamb.Dont know why you should expect abuse when what you say is spot on mate.Whilst we are capable of beating half decent sides, we are far too inconsistent to be a promotion threat in my opinion. Now i can handle getting beaten, but not in the manner in which we did on saturday and numerous other times this season. We dont just seem to get beat, we get thumped, and that must say something about our character. To concede 6 once might happen, and on saturday i realise 2 of the goals were flukes, in addition to a free kick that never was, but twice, no, and 3 other occasions thus far by 4 nil. Lets not forget we conceded 2 goals playing against 10 men. Not acceptable.I only hope it hurts the players as much as us loyal fans, but if it does it aint showing. Talking the talk in the press is one thing, but walking the walk out on the park is another.Midfield is full of prima donnas who need far too much time on the ball,and have no speed of thought or pace. Little protection is offered to the defence,and bugger all creativity going forward. I dont care if other teams are full time or not, that has nothing to do with us not being organised. Not having a goalscorer when Newts isnt playing doesnt help of course, but ultimately makes little difference if you have an inability to keep them out at the other end!The only shred of comfort from Saturday was the two kids who came on at half time. The lad Opoku showed strength and pace and desire. and the other lad Davis did well too in what was a difficult environment for them. No doubt with our Jekyll & Hyde nature we will manage to win games but it pains me to say it, that unless we can get in a few quality additions, i expect saturday will not be the last of our heavy defeats. Dont expect all to agree, and a lot of emotion in this post. Hurts even more when i see those t**sers down the A5 giving it large. Come on Tamworth, we deserve better, if not in results, at least in desire and effort 

Totally agree, just weren't any fight from the team in both halfs, we want players who will fight for the ball and give it 110 percent each game, still too slow on the ball and the creativity really needs working on in training. Like most have said very impressed with the 2 that came on, especially with epoku, dealing with the high ball for Davis. But yet again another very poor performance and I really can't see us landing in the playoff.
