With respect I take your point, however you have to factor in the fact that we have played twice a week for the last 11 weeks, far more than anyone else.Jsaffs wrote:Hi all
I’m new on the forum. Been a Barnet fan for nearly 40 years starting to watch them just before the fry/Flashman era...I was there for a 0-7 home defeat by Enfield in the fa cup back in the eighties!!! You know it is really bad when that happens
Don’t go much now as I live abroad but was over this weekend so took both my kids to watch and at least they had a nice day out (tickets for 1£, sunshine, shirts for £7.
I thought how nice
Then had to watch the game. And honestly I dont mind seeing my team beaten by a better side as long as they put in a shift but yesterday there was nothing. No leadership, no one on the pitch taking the lead, no animation from the bench apart from some pointless screaming and the players just looked bored and were too busy complaining to the ref, bench, each other or just trying to look pretty to actually compete
I was shocked by how flat it was and feel sorry for all of you having to watch that all year
Quite frankly I saw nothing that made me feel like any of them should stay. Shaq will always score goals, boucard was great going sideways, Sweeney when he could be bothered looked decent and Tarpey looked busy when he came on but that apart it was ugly slow pedestrian holiday football
Maybe the players pay should reflect results and attendances and then when no one turns up for pointless end of season games for the season they created they will get paid nothing rather than taking our money and turning out that dross
They may care but show it. Where was the hendo crunching tackle to wind up the opposition? Where was a crunching centre half smashing through their centre forward ? Where was our aggression in centre midfield and where was the battling up top?
Sad day for me as a lifelong Barnet fan to see such apathy from a team wearing the black and amber
Now that were safe there was always that chance that they would take their foot off the pedal, you just chose the wrong game unfortunately. On a more positive note Santos could be immense for us next season, At his best he is way above national league level.
