Re: F A Cup Second Qualifying Round - Crowborough Athletic (H)

Recruitment and player motivation do seem to be quite important when appointing a manager!

Re: F A Cup Second Qualifying Round - Crowborough Athletic (H)

Sparky, I agree with a lot of your analysis. Dowse picks out only two players that have performed, and one of those, Mather, had been largely ignored until the last couple of games, the one lad who had been signed from a lower league. Basically, it now seems we have decided we signed a squad that is ...

Re: F A Cup Second Qualifying Round - Crowborough Athletic (H)

I'd forgotten that but at the time I think they were bottom of the league. Taunton were two divisions below when we lost there 2-1 in the FA Cup in 2016 but we did play somewhat better if still lost.

Re: F A Cup Second Qualifying Round - Crowborough Athletic (H)

It would be interesting to hear the reasoning for Nash being brought back in. Was Underwood being dropped because of the third goal on Saturday, carrying a knock or something else? Sodje and De Havilland not picked in the squad, again injury or something else? And why did Ince not get off the bench ...

Re: F A Cup Second Qualifying Round - Crowborough Athletic (H)

I'd be surprised if the Chairman didn't think enough was enough after that. Bit like when we lost 6-0 at Eastbourne last season which was the end for Alan Julian.The whole season bar a couple of games has been a shambles with poor recruitment and dreadful defending. If the club doesn't make a change ...

Re: F A Cup Second Qualifying Round - Crowborough Athletic (H)

What's everyone's pain threshold before losing faith in Dowse? Not that the players are doing anything to help of course.

Re: F A Cup Second Qualifying Round - Crowborough Athletic (H)

Nash and Widdrington back in, RGC starts as does Fonguck and Fernandez; Waruih, Underwood and Sho Silva drop to bench. De Havilland not in the squad.

Re: F A Cup Second Qualifying Round - Crowborough Athletic (H)

Hopefully, we can get the right result in tonight's replay. Surely we won't make the same mistake twice (says with finders crossed). If we lose then might be a good idea to recruit the Crowborough team instead!

Re: 2026/27 Cup Competitions

I understand there are still some issues to be sorted arising out of the match so guess any statement is delayed until then.
