Torquay United V Weymouth 10th February 2009

I see it was asked if Ellis is injured, as I have said before he for reasons unknown, not in Bucks plans and I would be surprised if he plays any part in the rest of our season.

Dave - don't hold back by waiting until tomorrow - some of our player "slept on it" the whole way through the match and I think you're being too generous!!!!

I would slag-off the referee and his dreadful assistant, but it wouldn't have made much difference even if there was someone who let the game flow. I was level on the Pop-side when the keeper handled out of his area (and then one of their players got their hand on it from the cross), but the linesman was even closer - shame on him as well for such a spineless display.

I agree with the points you make Dave on the match, but I'd be surprised if Woods was dropped from the squad altogether, I'd also be very disappointed if Ellis didn't have a future at the club.

With regards to Williams, I couldn't elaborate during the game as my little palm PDA makes it difficult to type much, but he has torn us apart with Chesterfield, Hull, Bristol Rovers and now Weymouth. An excellent player - a proper winger and he must relish his trips to Plainmoor! I think he gave one of the most impressive individual performances turning that turned a game in the favour of the opposition when Bristol Rovers were 2-0 down and came back to beat us 3-2 back in the "great escape" (version 4) season in 2005/06.

ohtobeatplainmoor firstly a big thank you for putting up reports during the game, I'm sure many really enjoyed getting some live up dates from the match. After talking with young Mark some time ago I really felt that he will not feature in Buckles team and that is why I had started a thread called, what has Ellis got to do.

The ref and popside linesmen were once again very poor, but I think we have now come to just except that in this league the standards of the officials is going to be poor and that is just one more reason we need to get back into the league.

As I said in my report I can understand the changes Bucks made and his reasons, but I would not have played Christie with Sills, Green was the player who should have started with Christie and I would hope that is what we see happen in our next game.

I do wonder if the team is as good as we all thought it was, one thing that we do know is our lack of pace at the back and Nico gets caught out far to often by anyone who has any pace at all.I did feel when Bucks made the changes that he seemed desperate to try and get something to happen out on the pitch, but I'm not sure his choices were the right ones.

I really got fed up in the second half with the remarks being shouted out by some on the popside, no we were not at the races and got beat by a team who has players who know how to finish in front of goal. The boos were not required and do nothing to help anyone let alone the team. We need to forget tonights game and see what happens on Saturday.

One thing we can't do is not win on Saturday, I do fear we will slide and not be able to recover any form if we fail to win our next game.

Andy I think most know my views on Green and he was improving with every game and the goals were surely soon going to come from him. I fail to understand after the Coventry game why Bucks went back to having just Sills up front on his own and just having Green on the bench.

Maybe he knows something we don't? but if it is as you say that he has his favorites, he needs to stop that at once and get the best players out on the pitch.

I took a look at that thread and to be fair it was only one dick head who made the call...........................and believe me, "AlexGulls" is just that - one dick head!

Thanks for all the match reports. It sounds even worse than what we had to listen to on the radio. Highlight of the evening was getting my email mentioned live on the radio

Concentration is fully on the league and we start to screw up big time. Where has the time gone when we were scoring from all over the place?

If we win our games in hand then we'll be sitting comfortly in the play-off zone.

Histon, Cambridge, Stevenage, Wrexham, Kidderminster, Crawley and us. That's seven clubs, nine if you count in Oxford and Kettering, who will all battle for a place in the play-offs. Who of these clubs will make or break in the rest of this season. Difficult and only time will tell...

You can do no more than make an offer to a player and present him with a decent package... if, for whatever reason, a player chooses not to join us what can be done?
