Woking 2 Welling 0

Full Time Woking 2  Welling 0

Mr Jefford yellow card 74th min.

Safe trip home

1st half was all Welling and with a decent striker we would have been 3 up by HT. It's painfully obvious that we don't have a striker who can bang the ball in the net and it was obvious to Woking who played higher up the pitch in the 2nd half. With all due respect to the 2 strikers we had on the bench today, they are not up to this level and if they could be moved on asap, we could use the money to bring in a striker.

Another strange substitution taking Wellard off and replacing with Awotwi....with us losing 1-0, bringing on a striker should have been the priority.

Special mentions to George Porter who again ran his knackers off and Ben Jefford for a superb shift, in the first half his crossing was causing all sorts of problems and he threw himself in front of at least 3 Woking shots.

This post may seem negative as we did play very well in places, but goals win you games, and unless this is addressed, we will struggle this year.

Four away games, four defeats. Negative approach to all games.

Brilliant defensive performance at Wrexham. It had to be as we basically played defence versus attack through choice and our game plan seemed to be sit back and cross your fingers.

Today, knowing they had injuries to defenders Saturday we should have gone at them from the off  when we did attack we put call after ball into the box, from the left only mind you, and there was no striker there to finish it. Their right back got done time and again their centre back and left back might was well have been on the beach.

I accept we won't have the strongest XI in the league on our budget but we're not making the most of what we do have, and in some respects are lucky to have been able to sign given our level, namely players from league clubs previously. 

I'm starting to feel awfully sorry for certain players. 

Jefford and Corne have run their nadgers off and Porter must think he's in marathon training the amount of running he's being asked to do with little or no support and/or goal opportunities. And he's the sort of player that will explode at some point and either quit or get sent off, that's when he isn't benched or subbed. 

Lokko, Chambers and Osborne are all great centre halves but the constant three then four then three at the back does nothing to help them on their confidence or their teammates. 

Wellard. Past it. 

Harris, a wing back? What a waste. And on the right as well sometimes. madness. 

Vidal, goes from holding midfielder early on to now playing off of one striker and seeing none of the ball. What a waste. 

Lee, different class. But you can kiss him goodbye as he'll get the raving hump and go back to his parent club. 

Kabba and Tash preferred front two opening game yet now don't get a look in. Signed so early in pre-season we were obviously really confident they were the men for the job  they now clearly aren't. Who's accountable? Kabba named on bench Saturday  not fit today. Pathetic.

Amd as for the naughty one. Sign the guy then don't even name him in your squad. Either a panic signing or a waste of money or both.

All on contract too. Who's idea was that. 

Serious changes needed. Now. 

From the comments above, and the comments last season, are we actually waiting for KSA to return, match fit!
