We are rapidly becoming a team in decline. In all my years of supporting the Dolphins never have I see such a lack of direction from those in control our club. The run of the mill supporter may not have the financial clout to challenge those in control but without our support there will be no club for them to play with. To those that DO care for the club and DO have the ability to change things please please please do what is necessary whilst there is still a club worthy to be called Poole Town Football Club and worthy of its' history.

Sadly I have to agree. I have followed Poole for 16 years and can not remember losing 5 in a row (may be we did the season we got relegated from National League South?).
Now appears we have lost our top goal scorer. Be interesting to hear the reasons why. Great we have signed Srimshaw but means even less aeriel threat.
2 missed penalties recently and no goals in last 3 games. No dead ball specialist.
Very depressing.
Basingstoke is now critical game to get something out of.

It s been coming for a few months now: The lack of direction is running through the club. Knee jerk signings just to placate supporters, constant changing team
Lineups players out of position,l can go on. Senior players are not performing and leading by example. Morale is low ,attendances are down,income down.
We are battling to stay in this league and try and rebuild the team and club spirit for next season.

There is probably a very good reason for it and if so I apologise in advance, but it's not that long ago that at time of crisis Chris Reeves would come in with a calming steading voice of reason. Where is his voice of reassurance now..... it is needed more than ever. We may not have always agreed with him, but we ALWAYS trusted him. Can the same be said of those that now seem to control the club. Their track record with previous clubs is hardly reassuring.

I should imagine the record for the number of consecutive losses was in the 1995-96 when the club was relegated from Southern league south division played 42 games lost 41 got a draw in the last game against Bashley.

The club is going through a very unsettled time I don't quite know what to make of it all but the ship needs steadying before it hits the rocks and the cash runs out no more Haskells please.

Are last two home games in this purple patch have both had more than last seasons average |

Sorry but time Tubbs to leave. It clear to me now He wasn’t ready for Job Bashley is very small village club who happy to be in lower Mid table in league there. We are Huge town club still believe sleeping giant deep down trust the board to right thing . Tommy Was sacked for less again :hand on heart can’t see us getting another point it clear to me. Lost the dressing room , players have no heart ,No fight no desire they are going though the emotions but carry On like this we could Being in the bottom 4 .
The club is in turmoil loads people won’t go watch Poole due behavior Of certain behaviour. The club is going down the toilet it heart breaking To see

The way things are, it's hardly surprising that diehard supporters are struggling to retain their belief in the motives of those that now control our club. It's blatantly obvious that loyalty counts for nothing to these people, so why should players or supporters show it to them? The nucleus of what, at the start of the season, was a set up with serious promotion potential, has been ripped apart. It's no surprise that players and supporters are deciding to go elsewhere, where they are likely to be shown more appreciation.

To be fair to the team and Tubbs, we'll play a lot worse and win. Yesterday, their first goal was a cracker and their second was a breakaway after their keeper had made a brilliant double save when we were chasing the game. But...but...I sincerely hope the Tony Lee saga is not indicative of wider problems and disharmony.

Completely agree. On another day we'd have come away with a point. At the moment, we're just not getting the rub of the green. Whilst it's disappointing to see Tony go, there is still a lot of quality in this squad. We just need a lucky break, get the confidence back up & we're back in the game.

Maybe it's just a generation thing but I was brought up with the adage that you make your own luck in life. It's oh so easy to go down the route of "it wasn't our day today". Winners don't rely on luck, they make their own. Something that at the moment our players and management have forgotten how to do.

If it's working leave it as it is. If it's not working change it. You have to face the facts you have to face reality its as simple as that.

Let us survive the season in the SLP
Then comes the inevitable clear out of old hands ( and legs)
are we interested in the NLS?
If so let’s sign the players “off season” that will get us there!
And five more years at Tatnam
Is five years too long
football? We can do
fan base? We need some success to build it
Facilities? Vast improvements needed
