Well, after possibly the worst opening game in a decade, we head into our first home game against the 2018 League Leaders. Having watched the friendlies and the highlights from today (glad I didn't waste my money going to London), it seems that the players are both physically and mentally unfit. They looked more like spectators today, stood still and watchie the London players simply play around them. Lots of questions are going to be asked of Chester if he can't rally them for next week as it looks like the off season has been wasted.



Onward to next week, where I suspect the poor effort from the players today has cost the club a fair few hundred fans. It wouldn't surprise me if the Saints fans outnumber the Trinity fans next week as they will smell blood and hope to watch their club make a killing.



If Chester and the players can't get this fixed up quickly, we could be in for the type of season I hoped we'd seen the back off.

Can't see circa 4000 saints fans turning up next week!

I can't see 4000 trinity fans turning up either

True, we are a fickle bunch. Wakefield till I die and all.

London seemed to do fine with their 100 fans today.



It’s still early season so I don’t think the London performance will put off anyone going to the first home game. We simply can not serve up that kind of performance vs saints next week or it will be a cricket score.

These are austere times, a family day out to watch the game can cost upto £100 by the time you've got food and some warm drinks. I'd love it if we could attract more people, but performances like the one today will keep the maybes away. Why spend a lot of money on a cold February day to watch trinity get hammered by any team? I'd hoped we'd seen the last of those days, I'm now less convinced.

And if it is a cricket score, do you think the maybe fans will be back for the next home game?

We may not win the Saints game but let’s hope we put a performance in we know we are capable of and get our season back on track .

I'm sure that there will be a good home crowd at Belle Vue based on the fact that for this new season there was an increase in the number of season tickets sold...



And the fact that we wont play as bad as we did today....

Hi guys, there are quite rightly a lot of emotions running after that performance, whats concerning is Chesters post match interview quote "two days of not taking it seriously". We then have to face it, the players are not up for it this season, you cannot turn on form like a tap, all other teams have tried and failed. Once your in a hole it takes a massive change to get out of it, you cannot be casual about performing. Other teams watch videos and do their homework, we now look like the easy beats. Chester has been in this position @ HKR when they would not perform & ultimately it cost him his job. The board & coaching staff should call a full meeting with the players & seriously ask them where & what they intend to do, training fitness & application,- honesty.

I agree it’s very worrying that we could get up for the first game with virtually a full strength team to pick from .You have to ask yourself what the hell does CC says to the guys in pre match to get a performance out of them like that , not even a half time blast from him changed the day . I’m hanging on the theory that we are still one of the few teams that will lose to a supposed lesser team then play like a house on fire against a top side, I’ve got to believe this to

get me through the week
