Bath City didn’t need to play well to beat us today, poor performance on the back of a couple of good results. Total lack of ideas how to break down a side that were happy to play on the counter attack, not good enough today and a real let down for the decent crowd. Greenslade injured i take it, he normally is. 

We were very very poor today. As said Bath City didn’t look great they packed the midfield and stifled the game and hit us on the break. We looked out of shape and balance. We gave the ball away it was frustrating to watch even after they were reduced to Ten men we still didn’t change tactics just kept throwing it forward instead of changing shape and getting in behind them. Very disappointed after some better performance. Today was one of the worst I’ve seen us play. Against a very average side but that wanted it a lot more. I look forward to the Hungerford game now knowing we can’t play this bad again. Progress.   I don’t think so. But who knows  No two games are the same  😩😎

Bath were poor and we were worse.

4-1 flattered them.

Pretty sure that wasn't a penalty either.

Russe playing at left-back set the standard for the game, he played well in fairness but it was square pegs in round holes.
 

Always someone else's fault.

Rightly so a lot of emphasis on the result in this situation. Football is at its core a results business but I just want to throw some thanks out to our volunteers and staff at CTFC today. Been a long time since a crowd of that size descended on the Park and thought they handled themselves absolutely fantastically today, dealing with huge numbers ignoring pleas to arrive earlier to avoid large queues and delays and getting everyone into the ground safe and sound, from the top to the bottom today everyone played their part in welcoming a crowd of 1600+ and I am very proud of you all, bar was heaving, club shop had a record day and rolled the kit launch out superbly well, carol singers out the front were a nice touch and raised a good figure for our charity partner Shelter!

4-1 flattered them, Cooks interview suggested we weren’t good enough first half, better second but the ref was absolutely diabolical, almost laughable. Two blatant pens, definitely a controversial penalty for them given despite two much clearer penalties laughed off at the other end, could have had a third one when Don was shoved from the 18 yard box to the advertising boards and apparently nothing again. Bad day at the office, but if someone said 7 points from a possible 12 on December with two to play, I’d have snapped their hand off. We move to Hungerford and a chance to put things right.

Come on you Blues..
