Ok I was a little worried before........ Now im massively worried.

Unfortunately I simply do not believe some of our lads are League 2 standard at the moment, its a simple as that. Yes we have suspensions & injuries, but make no mistake we are in the fight of our lives to stay in this league come May.

Fair play for Leam, trying to change it a little today, but for the life of me I cannot understand how Joyce is keeping his place, yet again he was almost non-existent. Barnett, Beattie, Eckersley & Clarke all looked massively slow and labored throughout the match. Young Eckersley & Barnett have hardly played and unfortunately it showed today.

The only player really to come away with any credit for me was Belford in goal, who kept the score respectable with some cracking stops, so well done to him.

Lindfield, for the 50th time, NOT a Right Back.
Liddle....... Had a shocker.
Murphy........ Clearly not fit.
Eckersley...... Rusty as box of nails.
Joyce.......... A passenger.... AGAIN.
Clarke.......... No impact
Beattie........ See Clarke
Carver......... Looked out of his depth to me.
Boco........... No impact
Barnett........ No impact.

I have no idea why Molyneux was on the bench, maybe he wasnt 100% fit??? But the introduction of him and Hatfield in the last 10 minutes at least provided some movement and quality on the ball.

What we need in my humble opinion............ Is an experienced midfielder or two, A sort of Bryan Hughes who can use his experience and take a game by the scruff of the neck. Miller, Clarke, Barnett & Joyce are simply not the answer..... Are Hatfield or Dixon the men to do it?? Who knows, until they get a start we simply wont know. 10 minutes here and there just wont do.

My team for Chesterfield.........

Belford
Winnard......Murphy......Eckersley......Molyneux
Hatfield......Dixon
Lindfield........Boco.........Chippendale
Beattie

Subs
Dawber
Joyce
Miller
Podge
Carver
Liddle
Gray

We cant do any worse!!!
