Would agree with these points, think it might be difficult on current form. Hope to avoid defeat at the very least.
Interesting team selection for Alan.

Team. Merrick, Taylor, Revan, Byrd, Wiltshire, Williams , Atkinson Allen, Keeya, Iaciofano Jallon.
On bench Wall, Jefffcott, Masampu Vilhete and Siziba.
No Roberts seems to be out of favour?

Good commentary from our hosts on their Mixlr page: https://mjl99.mixlr.com/events/4107367
Seems a rare treat we can get any commentary on away games these days.

As has been pointed out there is not much goal threat in the team currently. Let’s hope for a goal in this half .

Lost 1-0 . Our poor run continues. Await news .
A very poor game, we didn’t look like scoring and it’s very evident with how games are going that our season is over. Enfield scored with the only real clear cut chance they had. We could’ve been there all night and not scored, the playing surface was awful and didn’t help matters, but that’s no excuse as it’s the same for both teams. I struggle to see where our next win comes from.
Jerry Wiltshire playing up front was an interesting experiment, he tried but isn’t a striker. Hope that isn’t repeated again. The midfield 3 are all a bit too workmanlike without enough creativity, Williams could play in there and one of 2 LBs from the bench last night playing. All seemed a bit round pegs in square hole approach.
This run of form is a real test of Alan Julian's ability to turn round a side looking like its confidence has cratered. Playing Wiltshire up front when presumably we have Wall on the bench does seem very odd. Julian has a lot of credit in the bank for getting us to nearly 50 points but if this trend continues that credit will begin to unwind, and given the club's uncertain ownership strategy, it could make for worrying times next season. We get very little information from the club about players' injury status. It could be that a number of players are struggling with knocks that is affecting their form. Gray's prolonged absence is not helping. Vilhete has dropped to the bench on a couple of recent occasions when he would be most people's first choice. Roberts looks a shadow of the player that started the season in good goalscoring form. Having to play Williams at left back when we have two left backs on the bench again looks odd as does releasing Kris Campbell. Post match interviews give no insight into what Alan Julian is having to contend with behind the scenes so it might help understanding if the interviews were a little more forthcoming.
