They probably have about as much idea of Slowe as they do of Bebe!

There was brief moment of shock around the crowd today as he came on to make his debut!!!!

Until the Aldershot announcer realised his mistake and it was actually Harris.

The announcer was hilarious - worse for young Alistair was probably to be announced as Alexandria Slowe as the teams were read out before the game.

He did make a few errs - in comparison even our sixfields announcer would have  sounded perfect.

Talking of the Sixfields announcer, he needs to learn how to talk into a microphone because I can never understand a f***ing word he says because its all muffled!

Is anyone else slightly concerned about our terrible start to the season, we are only 4 games in and are already 9 points off top spot and showing no signs of winning in the league. Ok we have a good Carling Cup draw to look forward to which will create a bit of income to the club but were still lying 19th and haven’t won a league game this season.

Our chances of being promoted are fading week by week and with the likes of Thornton leaving this summer, where will we be left? Despite having one of the larger budgets in league 2 Sampson has done nothing but disappoint in the summer transfer window, he gave Bayo a deadline to agree his deal to allow him a chance to land a striker that he feels good enough to score goals in this league which he hasn’t been able to do. He has repeatedly made mistakes in selecting the starting line up and has even admitted this himself.

Cardoza has confirmed that there is no money to be made in this league and he wants out of it as soon as possible, we are not going to be able to achieve this with the current squad and management strategies. I am starting to fear for the future of this club, with no money to spend and key players leaving next summer we are on a downward spiral. I know we are never going to be Championship level but we are slowly sliding closer and closer to non league football…

Is anyone else worried yet? A lot of you seemed to think there wasn't an issue 3 weeks ago, what about now?

When there are still 117 points to play for, and we aren't even out of September yet...no I am not worried.

A lot can change in a short space of time in football. I maintain that we've got a squad largely consisting of talented, but inexperienced and naive players, and as such, inconsistency is to be expected. Once they have a bit more experience under their belts and a few more pieces of the jigsaw have been added (which often happens mid-season, as it did last season with the additions of Thornton, Johnson and Gilbert), we have a squad that can pull up a few trees in this division and produce a few more Reading performances. Not overly concerned yet.

i personally am worried about where we will finish up this season. Had we not gone on this mini cup run and drawn liverpool then i think alot more people would started getting fed up with how things are going.

i can only see the slide continuing im afraid, with a relegation battle to look forward to come the spring.

i hope im wrong.

I'm surprised you are worried after all you would rather have your day out on wednesday than getting three points today.

Question: Is Sammo getting more slack from us because he was a Cobblers legend?  Imagine if Fenwick or Gray had made some of these decisions....

Yes. Another manager would be getting absolutely slated by now.

Does Cardoza ever, ever learn.  Putting managers on long contracts in lower league football is a stupid idea.  I would now start to seriously question Crosby's part in this debacle.  Either he is giving Sammo daft advice or Sammo is not listening to some sensible advice.

it's the big dollar question. and why aren't we getting loan players from spurs or boro? Jansen, jonno and steele have proved popular choices for all concerned. why haven't we got a CB from one of these clubs? is it not a bit strange that we are suddenly f***ed on the loan front? where are our loan players? it's like one extreme to another...what a terrible day. s***.

Is it down to the fact the we are able to pay 0% of the wages and we expect the parent club to pick up the whole tab??

Sammo def gets more slack because he is a club legend, personally i'm willing to give him more slack than i would other managers because of his status with the club. We are all willing him to lead us to success because its the perfect scenario, club legend turns around clubs fortunes etc

IMO mid table at best this season.

Im trying to retain some optimism after todays pre-Liverpool jolly. But Im struggling. The only comfort that I can find is that after the Hereford shocker last season (today was the worst we have played since then that I've seen and I've seen most) we only lost 2 from the next 22 matches.

Footballs a funny ole game I keep telling myself. I wont be there next Saturday though, Im doing the 3 peak challenge. I will stick the link on another section of this website for anybody interested in sponsoring me. I will be in a minibus between Ben Nevis and Scaffold whats it called come 3pm. Thank God.  Grin
