STFC v Colchester Matchday Musings

[Jimmy Quinn]

I would not mind letting goals in 2 nd half it it was on the counter, but we just sit back further and further each game

52 conceded already we only conceded 100 in the premier league🤣

Flynn:
- Poor. Two set plays. Left people unmarked.
- Make individual mistakes and that what happens
- That's 13 point we have dropped through mistakes
- Second goal starts with goal kick and two players getting in eachothers way
- Worked hard and we know we are light
- Had a deal agreed with a player who got injured
- Clubs changed their mind at the last minute with others
- Next week we will have 3-4 through the door and hopefully we will have different conversations after the game
- We are lacking quality. Not just on the ball. But when to press and when not to press
- Half time talk was 'Dont drop deep'. But then we did
- Let Akinde win the ball (because that is his strength) and then stick with the runners off of that.
- A lot of things have changed since the beginning of the year.
- We should have gone in 2-0 up. They were dead. But then we've given them a point
- Team struggling to execute instructions: Should you change the instructions? Swindon fans wouldn't want us to play with 10 players behind the ball and camped in our box
- But it turned into that! Flynn agreed, but that's not what he told them to do
- Brewitt is struggling. He is anxious going forward as he is worried he cannot get back
- Khan is struggling
- Cain isn't match fit
- Aguilar needs time to get up to pace of L2 as there is a big gap
- We are not at 100% fitness or health
- Hopefully the new bodies will help give everyone a lift
- Hawes commenting about behind the scenes. Have you been let down by those above you? No, Flynn wasn't going to throw mud. Flynn is working as hard as he can with the tools he has. The club have been trying behind the scenes. We had a player who would have been playing in the middle of defence in a back 3. But he rolled his ankle in training. That isn't the chairman's fault or DoF's fault
- We have not stopped. Flynn was going to call a striker today, but he's started and scored today
- Clubs have been changing their minds as they aren't able to get replacements in
- Flynn can't blame the back room team. He has the go ahead to sign players
- Franchise player should have been done on time for today. The hold up was at the other end. He wont be the new Dan Kemp, but he has a chance to come here to show what he can do. Franchise have seen what we have done with Kemp and were impressed!
- Hawes told Flynn not to run over any black cats. Flynn said he thinks he's done enough of that already!

If you wanted to break me in Guantanamo, you’d make me listen to Michael Flynn post match interviews. I’d tell you anything.

He said if we'd gone in 2 up at the break it would have been done and dusted.  

[Processed Beats]

Flynn is delusional. Enough is enough.

I'm going to get pelters, but I thoroughly enjoyed the first half. We played ok with total commitment and togetherness right up until they got a fucking goal in injury time.

Second half at really struggled, and I'm not going to pretend I enjoyed it. But the commitment and togetherness remained right up until they got a fucking equaliser in injury time.

Shame we are shit really

Yeah, I’m not putting this one on the players. Saw plenty of effort from all bar Khan. Some bodies put on the line too.

[JoeMezz]

In my opinion, Flynn has to go and Caddis in. Caddis one of the few out there who could really galvanise everyone. Come in and “save” the season and look to turn momentum for next year. He knows what it means to play for Swindon and how a successful lower league football should look. Get him in now and give him a go before he goes to a different league club and we regret not getting him.

[Nomoreheroes]

I thought we were shite

I expected that team to be shite.

I thought we would lose - We didn't

I have some sympathy for Flynn.

[Freeloader]

I thought there were positives, more grit than usual.  Needed Chas to last until the end of the game, he was organising well at set pieces.  At kick off, I would have settled for a draw, keeps them at bay and given the new manager bounce decent without Kemp or Young.  Unlike Colchester, nothing on the bench to change the game.

Definitely seemed a shift in mentality which unfortunately still bought the same outcome.

The switch in mentality from ‘it’ll sorts itself out’ to ‘we need to fight for this’ is exactly why Danny Wilson took us down. The manager/players never made that switch. Everyone thought because we’d been in the play offs the season before things would work out again.

I think we are at a point now where we need to be scrappy rather than playing total football.

[McGurk's Missus]

He said if we'd gone in 2 up at the break it would have been done and dusted.  

Flynn clearly hasn't seen STFC play. Fuck me, he knows how to keep digging a hole even without spades and his hands tied behind his back. He's still staying in bed with the board {understandable but he can still constructively criticise} but most of us possibly prefer that than waking up to a horse's head in the bed.

Was again impressed with Hawes to press him on certain areas. Always tries to retain respect for the circumstances but my god Hawes definitely got swerved on it with Flynn saying he works hard - sorry Flynn, that isn't even a far answer to the question. Hawes can only keep on asking the right kind of questions to him; regardless of the political style swerving. Loads of spin added to transfer questions - unfortunately I'm not buying the rolled ankle excuse and maybe the eleventh hour is more teams/players/agents realising ''oh shit, that place is a mess/they're only offering what?/so they only want to loan them?/ well no chance you're/I'm not going there, tell them the deal is off''

I think this all gets worse before it gets better

We need to save the Caddis appointment until these scumbags are gone from the boardroom.

Prepared to accept Flynn until the Augean Stable is washed out on that basis. No point changing management.

[Freeloader]

Yeah, I’m not putting this one on the players. Saw plenty of effort from all bar Khan. Some bodies put on the line too.

Khan is unfit according to Flynn, so is Brewitt, so that might partly explain the outcome, but Khan seems to have a crap attitude.

Aguiar is going to take a while to see if he can adjust. I agree with Flynn there
