Letβs hope so. Another dog sh*t signing from this summer.

They generally have shown more desire. Which in isolation in a cup match it can happen and you get on with your season. Sadly this is in the midst of a same pattern playing out in league games.
Would not call for Richie to be gone before the season is done, he has earned at least that. But some more honesty through and through would be good.

Beckles and Galbraith the only ones to earn their money today.

He injured himself stretching for the foul when Sweeney was sent off. Canβt believe the ref fell for it.
What is the protocol for a fake concussion?

Penalty saved. Tom Whelan (Boreham Wood) right footed shot saved in the bottom right corner.

We are in the hat for 2nd round, but honestly I cannot applaud or get excited about it.

Congratulations Orient you scraped through by being marginally less bad than a NL South team at penalties.
No credit or glory from this one, just tired legs and the same soft underbelly exposed for Blackpool to exploit.

No we most certainly didnβt win, we drew, and went thru on pens.
What we did do, we found our level today with this squad of player's
Blackpool must be dreading playing us next

As has been posted before it makes one wonder what good Matt Harold appears to have been doing with the players/team before he went to better himself.

In post match interview I wonder if itβll be mentioned that Stevenage also had to win on penalties to go through as an example of how hard it is to win against lower teams in the FA Cup.

What an absolute shambles
2 nil up against a team 3 divisions below us, & in the end we're hanging on for dear life.
RW wasn't joking when he said we have a soft underbelly

It's more the fact our players are simply not good enough .
We were 2-0 up and he made two changes, changes alter the course of games BW score and get momentum, players were good enough to be two up but RW tinkered.

Indeed .I couldn't help noticing how well Bournemouth are doing at the moment . I'm not saying that's all down to Matt but he must be helping out on the training ground .
