@NTT20Pod “18th Cambridge United - a squad that is really poor.”

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@haughycfc @rjb_1998 @Bobbinpvfc But the scarcity of relegation spots is a massive help to establishing in the higher league.

Make it 3 and you’ll just get more drop back down quicker as that’s what happens in the other divisions.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@haughycfc @rjb_1998 @Bobbinpvfc If you’re looking at the last 10, 2 are back in non league (Sutton and Hartlepool) 2 are in higher divisions (Wrexham and Stockport)

6 are in league 2. So the balance seems ok…

@deanos13 @ReeceDSport Team in 4th not having a shot on target helped.

@markbutcher72 Framing it as bat v ball is wrong. It’s that scores that high in the first innings effectively ends the game.

If a Champions League final is 6-0 at half time only the fans of the winning side are going to follow the 2nd half.

@GeorgeDobell1 Has George been able to ask Bumble how Accrington got on last night? #AskGeorge

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@TheCricketerMag @GeorgeDobell1 @melindafarrell Just to add that's not really from the media as such. But for all the talk about how they hate Bazball, it feels the team have benefited by being able to hide behind it to defend a pretty average record.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@TheCricketerMag @GeorgeDobell1 @melindafarrell Has the 'Bazball' discord just been a distraction from what should be the real discussion of how bad this team are 90% of the time.

Those 4th innings run chases seem a long time ago now. #AskGeorge

@JamFlem86 After how weak and pathetic we were last year, it’s nice to hear we’re a horrible team once again.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@YorkCityFC Even allowing 2 sides into the league you still get dross promoted, don’t pretend every side is a Wrexham waiting to happen. This side got relegated back after only 4 mediocre seasons in L2 and then embarrassingly fell into regional football.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@AbbeyStandPod That’s not to excuse this season. Garry Monk was just the cherry on top of 3 years of bad decisions.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@AbbeyStandPod Signing Saikou Janneh. Summer 2022 we signed young players in a way that was successful in the previous 2 years. None of them worked out, we signed R Bennett, Morrison in Jan 2023 stayed up & kept signing old players ever since. We’ve been a relegation in waiting for 3 years.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@AbbeyStandPod Would Kell Watts have scored at the end if he’d used his thigh instead of his foot?

Also one of the biggest fears of relegation is the drop in quality of football. Can L2 really be worse than yesterday?

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@AbbeyStandPod If luck evens itself out over the season, are we due another 15 goals like todays in the last 5 games to cancel out the cluster fuck defending from earlier in the season.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@maxrushden @marklangdon @sidlowe @NickyBandini Why in the year 2025 does it still surprise me that a subset of Twitter were angry at the decision in the Villa game to play no injury time, even though the result was a foregone conclusion.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@AbbeyStandPod Has anyone else gone from accepting relegation after Exeter, to it’d be great if we actually did this last week, to now being worried that we’ll get ourselves out of the bottom 4 only to fuck it up at the end of the season and still get relegated?

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@AbbeyStandPod If you were asked to say something positive about Garry Monk’s time as manager what would you say?

Even the 5 wins in a row were a chore to watch, and included a kids team & a conference side.

[Ryan S @rjs40]

@DavidAttmore @AbbeyStandPod Generally you have to be in the lead to time waste.

Jon Lewis reviewing the tour:

Well it started badly, it tailed off a little in the middle & the less said about the end the better! But apart from that, excellent!"

@AbbeyStandPod If one clean sheet is a platform to build on, what is three in a row?
