Good game to watch, Allan summed it up they wanted to win,sadly the Mollies played with a lack of direction or discipline.Tired towards the end of the first half they refused to play and pass to each other and golden rules were broken throughout.The opposition reduced to 4 men after a violent tackle upon our blameless Leo mananged to contain our long shots which were just not good enough. Whilst overal spirits remain high the plain facts we fielded unfit players some of which don't listen or learn from mistakes made on a weekly basis.Players coming off when they feel their tired is not the answer.I was reminded once again "I paid £7" which is not a good omen for Mollies future.

Members performance:
1. Matt made some good saves and I wouldn't critise his overal committment after being threathened at half time not to throw long balls he was left with little alternative by the players in front of him who failed to make space for themselves.
2. Leo was strongly committed but struggled with fitness.
3. Steve looked unfit and slightly overweight and hasn't learned anything from my coaching, making strong tackles which rarely paid off living him stranded and Matt vunerable.
4. Allan has lost the will to win and barely threatening the opposition's goal.
5. Carlos showed all the attributes that are the hallmarks that is the Mollies but he lacked the support of his team mates who had forgotton Don,s golden rules.
6.Young Mike showed little of hishis early promise and was reduced to walking for the ball and hoping the opposition made mistakes to enable him to get the ball. Whilst he was obviously tired in the the last 30 minutes of the match he steadfastly refused dispite my demands to come off. Clearly "I've paid my £7" syndrome. Bluntly no team spirit I could not resist thetemptation to play him again.
7. Adam as usual played his nomal game and the opposition's three out fielders found it difficult to go round him.

Overal using Leo's words your passing to each other was shit and mainly non-existant.Don't go forward unless you can run back was abandoned once again for selfeshness"I want to score"syndrome .Steve and Allan be proud of being a defender you haven't got the pace or skill to be anything else, I hope for the teams sake your listening. Move around at the back so Matt has someone to throw the ball at,don't use free-kicks as a means of getting a rest,Leo made some room for himself on one occasion and may have scored if Steve had reacted quicker with the free kick.Bluntly, Allan and Steve take penaties not free kicks.Yours D.J.
