Spoke to their young manager after the game in the bar. They look like a different team from last season, especially the way they play now. He said that they have several young players who have come through their academy and are comfortable with the type of possession football he encourages. Add to that some experienced players like the ten and eleven who have bought into the system. Because they have local players they have switched back to training on their full-length pitch. Three times a week. Mondays are optional. Maybe some lessons for our future development? Think you will find our Academy lads train Daily and play twice a week locally. Other local players seemed to be loaned out to SCFL and KCL clubs. Deemed not to have the quality.

the Hastings back four, all over six feet AND skillful impressed me. In front of them collecting and transitioning the play was a young number nine who was relaxed in possession and also impressed. Do we have Acadamy players of this level yet? I don't know. But this is where we have to aim to go in my opinion.

Just as was when we emerged from the CVA, which became an opportunity seized by the Everitt brothers, Liam Friend, Josh Vincent, Jimmy Dryden, the fair-haired lad whose name I've forgotten, subsequently Johan ter Horst, Frankie Chappell another stalwart though he was Medway based I think. The youngsters are out there. play them and rebuild around a limited core of senior players who are really up for it.

Seems we've had too much change very quickly. Drury deserves a chance to turn this around hasnt had a fair crack yet. One aim for remainder of the season is to stay in this league he said he wants 6 points from the next 2 games. See where we are end of January I still believe he will turn us around.

Yes let's not panic yet we've got to trust Drury to do the job, as I think Gerry said if those 2no efforts on goal had gone in the result may have been different although we don't know of course,let's all believe we can do it..⚽️🖤🧡 COYS

Yes your right and also if there three efforts they missed on goal could of been 0-8 just not good enough, I use to cheers on the players by name but don't know any or maybe 2/3. Something is going on behind the scenes they don't want us to know.

Drury deserves a chance but please just manage the team and stop playing as well, thought he was Roy Race out there taking corners, free kicks and throw ins but from the stand his midfield caused half the problems yesterday being so open and far from each other.
Heard or Cole must be scratching their heads that he’s on there for 90 mins and they’re sat on the bench.
If he treats this job like he should be and be a full time manager not player manager there’s enough quality in that squad to be fine this season.
5-0 deserving yesterday but it’s not like we didn’t create any chances especially in that first half - bigger questions need to be ask of this new board and what actually is there aim with the club??
