The Kent Senior Cup Final had a good atmosphere but there was a decent crowd there.

Warm balmy weather gives everything the feel of a pre-season friendly too.

Bring on the three layers of clothing conditions!!!

The reason that it was not a good atmosphere yesterday was that it was another poor performance by Welling against a supposedly inferior team.   Our passing was well below the standard expected of a BSS side and East Thurrock's passing was, without doubt, of a superior standard.        

When we are playing short players up front, it is imperative that we play the ball to their feet but we keep lumping high balls to them.   This does not make any sense to me or to the many supporters sitting near me in the New Stand.   

During training, the Coaching Staff should be concentrating on  passing to feet because it would appear that this is not being carried out at present.    

We could not have complained if East Thurrock had gained a draw from the game.
Well done to Tommy Whitnell who saved our bacon with two good goals.

It would also make sense to play Tony Finn wide on the right and put Jake Hobbs, who runs himself into the ground in every match, up front with Tommy Whitnell.

I note that Lee Clarke played for Cambridge City in the Cup yesterday so that he is now Cup-tied.   Does this mean that he will be allowed to join them if he impresses during his loan for one month?   In view of his considerable BSS experience and our total of only 13 goals in 11 games in the League so far this season, was this a wise decision?     

I still can't see us not winning the league this season.

im sorry but none of those games had "atmospheres" - depends on your defintion of what one is

and let me clarify my postings on this thread(when im not drunk ) if by atmos you are refering to singing we are awful - hardly any singing ever happens altho a roof over both ends would solve that problem (and i know that wont be happening any time soon due to costs etc)

but if by atmos you are refering to "getting behind the team" then i dont think we have a massive problem in that regard - fair enough it can be very flat at pvr but i can think of numerous examples when weve got right behind the team

it's a football home disease of no atmos that isnt just reserved for us although on this occasion Ford is right and we should have got behind them more
