Sorry I thought we were shite from start to finish, our match winners against Welling Eddie and ollie never seemed to get going. You can't blame our keeper for their two goals he was let down by our poor defending. It's looking good for Folkestone already with good finances and a clever manager.

Gotta feel sorry for him though, they always seem to be at the same time we have a winning or unbeaten run. What bad luck.

No interview again after a loss? Let’s hope it’s just delayed :shock:

Well, let's hope that NOT having an interview is few and far between the interviews.

He's probably more annoyed than the fans over the defeat. He is human.
A tad disappointed with the defeat myself.
Hopefully bounce back Tuesday, but it's not going to be easy.

I thought that W&F were the best side to visit PP this campaign.
Either we just didn't get going today or our oppo were well organised( probably both).
Not going to single out players but we do have 2/3 of our regulars not on their best form.

A Play off place is our best chance imo

We are probably one of the best 6 teams in this league ,but one of the best 1or 2 not imho.

On to lickabilly on Tuesday and hopefully 3 points.

First goal let down buy his defence, spreads himself and unfortunately the ball goes through his legs

2nd goal the guy has acres of space and time on the edge of the box and he curls one into the side netting.

Nothing he could've done for either of them.

First goal he came charging out off his line like he always does 100% his fault ....came off his line in the first half and nearly got chipped thankfully the striker hit his shot wide and high ....second goal not much he could do ...but he is a poor keeper a good one Dartford would have another 6-12 points on the board ...if we want to go up we need a new keeper soon

Thought that we was well Flat yesterday, not a lot of atmosphere probably because of the lackluster Performance, would have been more than pleased with a point at the end but wasn't to be. Thought they were a useful side and are probably well down the table only because they are only playing away games. There little chap in midfield a Ball Carrier totally dominated the midfield with constant runs down the middle.

Samir played half a dozen absolute world class balls in the first half to create 20 yards of attacking space, a couple of these led to some good passing spells where we pressed our opponents well and looked dangerous. Unfortunately, that’s as good as it got for us and we simply faded into desolation as the game went on. Credit must go to W&F who absorbed a bit of early pressure and knew exactly when to commit.
We will need a shake up to get anything at Billericay.

I don’t think we done too much wrong, we just played against a very well organised team who were better than us on the day. I agree that we played below our normal standards and team selection and substitutions could have been better. Both Callum & Samir have not reached the levels of last season for whatever reasons and it wouldn’t do them any harm to have a rest. We have more than enough depth in the squad to try out Carter and Smith from the off.

I hope Ady took note of their No.17 yesterday. What a pain in the backside he was, I can’t remember a game where one single player caused us many problems. We just need to regroup and go again on Tuesday. After the start of the season we have had to be in and the playoffs isn’t too bad going.

One last thing; please stop quoting the 🧌.
