The pre-match threatening behaviour of the foul mouthed individual who claimed to be Bracknell's chairman, egged on by his mates whilst stewards looked in with hands in pockets, set the tone for a most unenjoyable evening.
Bit of a rough one that, both on & off the pitch 😂 less said about off the pitch affairs the better but jeepers on it we were awful, first choice centre back pairing & no Bradley Wilson was always going to set a challenge but even I thought we might scrape through with a draw or 1 0 loss minimum...Back 3 of Scott, smart and our new guy were lost, absolutely all over the show, But I'll put it down to just a bad night & we go again in Plymouth, looking forward to it! UTS!
Sounds like a really disappointing night all round. Interested to see the team, but presumably our new CB played, or came on as sub. Poor old Smarty is looking his age, and a bit lost this season, hence the collection of errors that he is holding his hand up over. Defence definitely needed strengthening, as I`ve said previously, we are conceding goals for "fun". If Dan can`t fix this, the slide into mid table will continue.
Some of us are old enough to remember that nightmare FA Cup defeat to Bracknell, when they were a lower league side, now they have money, ambition and a mouthy chairman by the sound of it.
Big response needed (again) at Plymouth, otherwise my `Ayes mate and I will have to stand at different ends of the ground next Tuesday!

I hope it wasn't Scott, as he was walking round the ground with a pint in his hand. Apparently he's out for another week or so, whilst Billy said he was pushing to play at Plymouth. Losing Le Paih did not help our already weakened line-up and it showed.
As for the stewarding which numbered around 20. I thought stewards had to have passed some course to be stewards. These 20 people who were mostly volunteers, were drinking alcohol, then playing "I put my high-viz on I take my high-viz off, on-off, on-off and have another pint"

Thought it would be hard to get anything - they really should have been promoted last season and will be in the mix this time too. Great FA Cup result for them on Saturday as well.
Having said that it's a shame to be well beaten. One to forget and onto Plymouth - doesn't sound like we'll have Brad for that one either.
