No Longer in Our Own Hands

As we were failing to hold on to our half time lead at home to Farnborough on Saturday many of the teams around and below us were busy picking up points and dragging us closer to relegation. Our fate is no longer in our hands if the teams below us win their games we’ll finish in the bottom three and the big budget gamble the club chose to make at the end of January will have lost.
Despite Joseph-Dubois, Welch, Fuseini & Malcolm all signing contracts for next season realistically if we go down the club will have to sell them cut price on to get them off the wage bill as we cut our cloth for a very austere future in the Ryman League.
If things weren’t bad enough Mark Goldberg has chosen this moment to criticise the fans and say the don’t back him. He may well be right to say that the team needs the full backing of the supporters from now on, but he is wrong to lump all fans in with a vocal minority who stand behind the dug outs and slag him off every game no matter what the result.
I doesn’t bode well that with 6 games to go cracks are appearing, the mood is dark and results are not improving.
Saturday’s result left me feeling so disappointed and with that sinking feeling in my stomach. I get a horrible feeling I’ll be returning to that place again over the next few weeks and it could be along journey back from Dorchester on 28 April.
