LOST 3-1. Att 275
Good first half again. Definitely the best team. Then 3 unnecessary set pieces give them the win
Great to hear Ash on the radio not trying to shift the blame on to the ref or the fact we have young players. Simply lack of concentration and poor decisions.
The attendance is worrying. Nothing else happening nearby. Saturday games few and far between and up until today we weren't doing too bad overall.

Game of 2 halves. First half we played well, and looked in no trouble. Should have scored more but Harrison and Brown up front just aren't finishers. Lockett scored a nice goal, but sadly remains on his own with his speed of thought going forward. Second half we fell apart, ran out of steam, and simply gave away 3 set piece goals. No leaders on the pitch. In a league with minimal away support, the crowd of 275 was as expected. Our results and performances don't really justify any more to be honest. Ashley Vincent continues to talk a nice game, but has got to start delivering results.

At least we had a better week than Spurs.

Three consecutive league defeats does not give me much optimism. I had hoped that with Vincent in charge there would be an improvement on last season, but there seems to be little progression.
We deserved to be ahead at half time today but were guilty of missing chances.
Sadly whilst Harrison and Brown are both hard working they both appear to be incapable of doing what they're supposed to, i.e. score goals.
I presume they are only starting because Jeys and Brain are not available.
Home crowds of 250 or less are going to become the norm I fear.

Difficult to argue with any of Allwaysnextyears post other than apart from giving away the three stupid set-pieces which lost the game I thought the defence looked solid. Lots of industry and very little quality elsewhere. Where are those who used to shout “Heeley Out?” I bet they are not amongst the 275. If any of them are they might want to reflect on where we are now. |

Whilst I wasn't one of those, what makes you think things would have been different if Carl had stayed?We might have gone bankrupt quicker??

Not sure why Pershore Town's assistant manager needs to put his 2p worth forward? Are we really a laughing stock? I think we're are at a level we deserve. No money, no ground and a mid table side. Nothing new there. Some people still think we are entitled to be in a better position. Agree that it's unnecessary for him to comment.I don't think the club is a laughing stock. I think some of the fans who can't seem to grasp what we are now ( team that struggles in hopeless league in front of next to no one in someone else's place)are the laughing stocks.I have no axe to grind with those who still go, I go myself sometimes, but you have to be realistic. Why on earth would Reynolds want to come back to us unless someone wanted to pay him a fortune out of their own pocket www.worcesternews.co.uk/sport/17949748.brad-birch-calls-worcester-city-laughing-stock/ |

Was at a wedding yesterday so can't comment on the game, but next week's FA Vase match is shaping up to be pivotal. Lose this one and some very big questions need to be asked. That's five penalties given away in the last three games for a start, and eight for the season already, or something daft like that?
Brad Birch is way off beam. It's not a laughing stock by any means. No laughter involved, it's just sad.

Agree with most of the above. It's a fatal combination of the forwards failing to score when the going is good and the defenders making terrible decisions at the back. We sat back at the start of the second half and invited pressure which eventually cost us the game. Harrison and Brown are identical players which makes us very one-dimensional. They run around a lot but haven't got a footballing brain between them and can't finish.
It's no surprise crowds are at the level they are. It's a journey to get to Bromsgrove to watch pub level football and to make matters worse we're not very good at it. I question my own sanity sometimes.
Who gives a monkey what Brad Birch thinks.
As for Spurs - well they've gone a bit well …. Spursy - Shame.

It's as simple as we dont take our chances when on top in games, people calling for us to sign Hughes or Reynolds....get a grip....we dont have the financial resources to do so at the moment.
This Club cannot move forward until we get back to Worcester in all reality but I have total faith in the lads that they will go on a run sooner rather than later and the season will turn.
I have total faith in Ash, Marlon and other staff, if they could be out there scoring and finishing games before HT they would be

I agree....who cares what an ex-player, who showed nil loyalty to the club, and the assistant manager of a team at a lower level think!
As for Saturday's match what disappointed me most was how the heads dropped after they scored the equaliser. The Vase match next Saturday does now take on an added significance.
