We need some of the players to actually give a sh*t that they're representing Canvey Island football club. From the sidelines its blatant to see this whole season who really goes the extra mile. Some players look like they're playing local pub football. Lets not hide behind any rose tinted glasses and start facing facts.


I appreciate what your saying Benny - but at this moment I don't agree with you.

As Ribbit says I think all the lads are trying - but there is a big gulf in some of the talent at this level. I think all the lads try and want to play but some seem to be struggling with the levels and demands of this league - they just may not be up to it in the long run.

At the moment we are going to have to trust them to put in the hard work and turn it around as I can't see many experienced heads coming into the team at the moment.........


I also appreciate you point of view as well A Non E Mouse but for me, some just dont look like the effort is there. i've not seen 3 maybe 4 players this season get stuck in, get involved in the match as much as possible or look like they are even trying at some points. Granted, a majority try their best every second of a match but for some, that is not the case i'm afraid. All i want to see for £8 a week is people giving their all. you have to bear in mind they get paid as well and to get paid for a job, you have to try the hardest for your employer.

I will hold my hands up and admit I did'nt see any reserve team matches last season - however, I would imagine that although they made up the bulk of the squad they still had experienced first team players adding that touch of class and more importantly experience. Blimey we had so many injuries during our term in the Conference that most of our first team players must have had "on the mend" games with the reserves.

I'm not sure if I agree. Certainly there are some players who aren't as capable as others, or aren't trying as hard, but I don't necessarily think there are players who don't care.

i agree with benny here, you are right in sayin that some players aren't as capable as others but one thing that every player can give the same as another is 100%!!!

Well, I am not going to critisise individual players! Most of them are going through a steep learning curve at the moment.

My concerns are for the lack of sparkle from a good percentage of the squad.

 

It has to be looked at, when, with just one key striker available to the first team,that player is used in a mid week reserve game, a decision that must be questioned.

 

With Leon stranded up front without any support, it became blatantly obvious that we were not going to score from open play and yet every set piece was wasted.. Do we actually work on set pieces or do the players have to fathom the tactics out at the crucial time!

 

Smacks of first team tactics of last season!!

I think the piece in this evenings Echo says it all!!

 

Injuries lacking experience and one or two not working hard enough!!!

 

John Batch is the only manager I have come across who most times says or does what I would hope he says or does!!

 

Two years and we will be top half of Ryman Prem!!

The players certainly look like they are suffering from a severe lack of confidence. Injuries apart, I would have thought the players waiting in the wings would have grabbed their chances. I beleived this squad had what it took after those superb performances against sudbury and in the league match with maldon, i am just dismayed after saturdays performance, goodness knows what Batchy is going through. Saturday at a mediocre Wakering should answer a lot of questions and tell us if changes are needed fast.
