Steph1 28 Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 An exciting game with a good result. However, Brightlingsea had barely 3 chances to score and scored from 2 of them. A fantastic save from McDonald in the closing minutes ensured that we got the 3 points but questions have to be asked about their 2 goals. For every chance that Brightlingsea had we must have had 2 and yet we only converted half of them. There were glaring misses on at least 2 occasions which would have wrapped the game up. We have to convert pressure into strong winning positions. It was good to see that Bricknell had more support in this game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Benjrider10 61 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Agree Steph, we should have won far more comfortably than we did. But I don’t want to take anything away from the performance - we looked strong once again. Let’s not forget Brightlingsea were higher than us in the league table before the game. Lockdown has come at the wrong time (not that there is a “right” time), I hope we can pick up from where we left off when we resume (hopefully) in early December. Just read the website update about Blackman and Della-Verde. Looks like a sensible move and shows the squad once again that ETFC players are firmly on the radar of various scouts. Fingers crossed neither player picks up a knock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wildlife rescue 52 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I dont think it's a good bit of buisness at all. Knowing how much Brad admires both players I dont think they will be back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Benjrider10 61 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Just looked at the league table again and must have got Brightlingsea confused with Cray 🤪 ... I blame Trump, he’s left me even more dazed and confused than normal 😲 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't think you are right in saying Brightlingsea Regent were higher than us in the League table before the match. We were at the top end of the table on 15 points (now 18 points) whilst BR were on 8 points (still 8 points) much lower down the table. A good result for Town all the same!

Neither player is on a “full” contract so could leave after a 7 day approach anyway. Best way of staying match fit is by playing. I hope both return ..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rebel without a clue 5 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Brads also taken one of our former players Ben ward-Cochrane from potters bar on loan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Crowing Cockerel 59 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 If Brad picks off the best players from our squad for a second time I may have to hunt him down! It will be interesting to see whether they go into the starting line-up against Chelmsford. I notice Ben Ward-Cochrane was talking on social media as if he had made a permanent move when, in theory, its only 4 weeks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raingod 43 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Agree with the comments above - good exciting game, good team performance - we could have scored loads more - but if it wasnt for Nathan in the last minute would have been an underserved draw (I didnt see it myself, looking forward to watching on the video!) .. I believe they will simply rearrange the fixtures at this stage - which helps us with the big 5 in a row we had to face - get Shaun and Scott back to fitness to improve the starting 11. This could be a good thing for us? I do think the league should be clear and transparent in terms of the guidelines for this year - null and void v pts per game etc. Hopeful that there is nothing in it with Ryan and Lyle - we have waived the 7 day approach in good faith - surely Brad would not rip apart our squad a second time ...? Though I did think on Tuesday night its ironic how the Brad team of 4-5 years ago is reunitng here under Andy - Nathan, Muleba, Percy, and now H!! And finally very sad to see Mo join Barnet on loan - how could he??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
djwilf 29 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) Ryan walks straight into their starting 11. Edited November 7, 2020 by djwilf Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now we've got a problem - Ryan plays well for 4 weeks and we won't be seeing him again. Doesn't look like Lyle made the bench. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
4wembleyfinals 34 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) Welling lost at home 0-4!!!!! Keeping Braintree ( now where have I heard than name before?) company at the bottom of the league. Possibility they could come down next year. No wonder Brad Q wants players. Suggest management try to add a few more players on short term contracts for the next couple of months. Edited November 7, 2020 by 4wembleyfinals Quote Link to post Share on other sites

old towner 28 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 if our management /directors let both go then any faith I had in them will go out the window we might as well not bother anymore pity we don't put a block on managers looking at our players Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Raingod 43 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I think we are right to be concerned, but without contracts there is little we can do to prevent. I think Ryan is a towner through and through - he has turned down Conf South clubs in the past while playing for ETFC and I dont believe he would leave us for Welling. Lyle must be surprised he wasnt selected on Saturday - and he has been in such hot form with us - my player of the season so far - why would he leave to go to a struggling team level above when he is settled here? I expect both to return to us when we resume ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
