Better second half, but the alarm clock didn't go off for most of us in the first.
Did Hayes back pedal in the second half? were we stronger? or are they just an attacking side that can't defend?
Time will tell, but good character to not just cave in as former sides would have done. Remember Truro, Taunton, Bath(twice)?
Not much help from the Officials either by the sounds of things.
OK, on to Saturday.
COME ON YOU YELLOWWSSAA!!

I note no video interview with our beloved leader? Does he only think we can do it when we win?

Had we attacked them in the first half as we did in the second we would have made a game of it. We sat back and seemed to give them the space to run at us and they are a very good team. Big, strong, fast and skilful. Given our first half performance they deserved their win, but it was frustrating to witness when you know we can play so much better. It really was a 6 pointer which we ended up on the wrong end of.

What a pathetic comment to make...................prior to last nights result the manager had overseen 10 wins on the bounce. There may have been reasons for no interview, he has given post matches interviews on past defeats.

There is an interview on the twitter page, as usual, posted about an hour ago, around the same time as the slagging off comment on here.
It was a long, hard night, a heavy defeat, and most Club Officials, including Dom!!, probably didn't get home till early hours, so the interview didn't get posted until this morning!! Disaster???
Lets be a bit patient eh?

Would be interesting to see an interview or any comments after the shambles of a first half last night.
However on a more positive note, decent of Jordan Rose to personally come and shake hands with the fans and thank them for coming! Let’s hope the racial slurs get dealt with by there club

It's all a one way-thing for him for "communicating" with fans. When was the last time he did a fans forum??

Let’s hope the racial slurs get dealt with by there club Re: "racial slurs". Be very careful before posting on such a subject. I've heard from two witnesses that the comment made from the sidelines was misheard and, although hardly a pleasantry, it was not racist. A reliable witness has told me the lino confirmed this. One of the brightest spots of the last few years has been the huge effort to restore the Club's reputation, which, sadly, had been trashed by previous events and attitudes. A big part of this has been the rebuilding of bridges with other member clubs, who I know have been impressed by the improvement. So let's not get into casting slurs about other clubs without knowing the full facts.

As I mentioned earlier there IS a, fairly honest, video report from Spencer on twitter, giving his forthright views as ever.
A heavy defeat after a long run of victories always hurts, but it has to be taken on the chin and move forward, it's along season.
How we react and respond to it, at player and Club level, is another matter!! I guess Saturday will tell.

As mentioned below think his post match interview/comments covers the first half performance. People who know me will tell you I have been a fierce critic of Spencer on many things in the past, but also like to be fair and give give credit when I believe it's due. I have attended many Boro fans forums in the past, but honestly am not sure they reveal very much. That being said why don't you request one ?
