My return last night to the 'field of dreams' has left me both shocked and baffled !!.
Shocked to witness a team whose joint commitment, effort, and desire to win should have been so vital to the very survival of the Stanley as a Football League Club nevertheless contained seven players who appeared to be either disinterested in the task to hand, or worse still seemed to give the whole thing up as a bad job when Fleetwood's first goal went in !!...that last bit being a sad indictment on any player at any level !!.
The element that baffled me altogether arose from the memories of that night at The Highbury Stadium where not that long ago The Reds played Fleetwood Town off the pitch.... and my thoughts are How, Where, and Why has the transformation into the shapeless outfit of individuals presented to us last night come about ??.....Why even Football19's keen analytical observations at half-time were highlighted by this very point...if 'no shape and running around getting nowhere !' were to be believed.

My last thoughts as I sank into a fitful sleep last night were once again...and I don't want to bore you folks...Who in the current squad is going to score enough goals to ensure a desperately needed victory and the 10 or more points required for survival ??...Sir Bobby Robson's simple equation was, and still rings true.. " Score some goals and you'll win more games than you lose....Fail to score and you'll be relegated " .
Like Cashy I reckon that I'll be a Stanley supporter for many more reasons than the current situation holds for us !!.....BUT I want the team to be one that I can have some pride in supporting and who share in my desire for it's success !......
See you on Saturday !!.
