Not a player of football league standard.
Extraordinary error prone yet Slex stills plays him

Impressive how heâs managed to play at L1 level for 2 seasons. I remember going Rochdale away who were rock bottom in L2 and him being absolute demolished
So poor, slow and canât pass the ball for shit

Imagine Nathan Thompson being behind him in the pecking order. Absolutely criminal.

We've been through this.
You have zero proof that was the case, and the fact NT was starting ahead of Sweeney after Sweeney came back suggests that is not the case.

Not to mention that Nathan Thompson's season is over due to injury.

Good ain't playing twice a week so with Butler sidelined we don't have a choice but to play Sweeney.
He has positive attributes, but ok tonight he was as shit as everyone else.

A lot of the current squad cannot play twice a week at the minute. We are playing twice a week at the minute, so players we may not want to start are going to be starting.
The players we just brought in very much suggest to me that in a couple/few weeks, those most don't believe are pulling their weight won't be starting games when our other options are fit enough to do so.
Think some people also need a fucking reality check. We are Stevenage in League One. How are we going to bring in these superstar players you all want in every position? Where do we find them? How do we afford them? Why do they join us? The reality is we are going to be hoping players from the level(s) below can step up, hoping unproven youngsters can perform, or hoping players with a history of injury issues can stay fit. Otherwise it will be a core of middle of the road L1 players who are going to result in inconsistent performances and results, both from the team and from the individuals. Which is exactly what we are seeing, hence being bang on midtable. Nice to see all the slugs have crawled out from under their rocks tonight though after being suspiciously fucking absent for a few weeks.

I disagree. As I said last week, I pay good money to go to games. The least I hope for is entertainment. Iâm certainly not expecting to win every game.
I went to Charlton on Saturday. The 2nd half was appalling - we didnât even have one shot at goal! The total lack of invention was alarming. I havenât been absent for the last few weeks & I havenât crawled out from under a rock!
Obviously we canât expect world class players but Evans managed to get this team playing well & got results so why canât Revell? Why has Reid stopped scoring? Why isnât anyone else chipping in apart from Kemp recently?
As a paying supporter I have every right to air my opinion and just because it doesnât tally with yours, that doesnât make it any less valid. We may have different expectations but honestly, Iâm quite happy with mid table. I just want to enjoy watching games. Thereâs been little to get excited about apart from a few recent results which seems to have made some people get very defensive

With the âentertainmentâ bit? As in hoping for entertainment? Are you new to watching Stevenage FC?
Anyway, Iâd rather theyâd realised we were a bit short and tried hard to get 2 points from the last 2 games in a very un-entertaining way.

I think it's the old Stevenage problem atm. We'll surprise people and win the hard games but come unstuck and look like we don't give a fuck against the poorer ones.
You'd therefore be questioning both the players own desire and the motivation of the manager.
It doesn't bode well for the next couple of weeks, we could easily be sucked down the table very quickly.

Good points in there chuds agree with all we are fucking punching and still we have moaners

Re: Sweeney

To be clear, I am not for a second suggesting there shouldn't ever be any moaning simply because overall we are doing pretty well, nor do I think the second half tonight or on Saturday was the level it should have been.
But there are clear factors dictating why Revs is having to select certain players at present, and why we are going to have to occasionally rely on some players who may not be deemed good enough, as we always have done, which shouldn't just be ignored.

Who do you think will be dropped?
I think he'll do his usual rotation assuming no more injuries.
Goode for Sweeney.
Move Reid out wide left.
Appere for Hanlan through the middle.
Leave Roberts alone wide right
He will then pick any 3 from King, White, Louis and Phillips, in any shape they fancy with Kemp at 10.

Give Reid and Roberts two weeks holiday on half pay. Hopefully they'll come back refreshed.
Rotate Appéré, Young, Hanlan, List, Edwards up top. Doesn't really matter, just get Kemp on the ball near the goal.

Crawley have played twice in a week and showed far more today than we did.
I'll comment on here when I watch the whole game, I can't watch every week unfortunately but that was poor tonight, can't watch Saturday so that's a win, am going next Tuesday so apologise now if we lose to Peterborough. đ

Do think an opportunity was missed not signing another defender in January.

Re: Sweeney

Maybe we tried.
But we should remember our defence for two seasons has been bloody good and Sweeney has been a big part of that.
