Defensive weaknesses let us down

Voice of the Valley editor Rick Everitt looks at the defensive weaknesses that are letting us down and expresses concern about the injury to Harry Lennon. However, some solace may be derived from the plight of the other teams in the relegation scrap: Taking stock after Brighton

The stats after 19 games this season are virtually the same as after 19 games in our 2008/09 relegation season except this season we have a worse goal difference. Also not only do the bookies have us as odds on favourites to be relegated but to finish bottom of the league.

I have to fully agree, the usual problem of not being able to put two good halves together, and once we were down to 10, there was no chance of hanging on to a lead. Putting Lennon in last match goes to show Freye's finally cottoned on to how bad Sarr is. With Bauer now suspended for next match, and Lennon with a cut and concussion, that leaves us with the unreliable Sarr, and a choice of untried youth or converting someone who is better elsewhere, either Diarra or Cousins could do a job.

i wonder what the odds on 0-3 are
