On Saturday we played Eastleigh at home and we lost 3-0, a bitterly disappointing result, after a bitterly disappointing performance. We made three mistakes, and they scored three goals. Their first came early, after just 13 minutes. No one tracked the central midfielder’s run into the box, the cross came in, the centre-halves were watching the ball rather than behind them, and the geezer had a free header. Our new keeper Steve Williams got under the cross a little bit, to make matters worse. The match might have been completely different if Boothy hadn’t missed what looked like a sitter straight from the kick-off. He had an open goal from the edge of the six yard box, but the ball hit a bobble, then hit his shin, and the defender had time to clear it off the line.

It was a very flat performance from us, and things got worse rather than better in the second half. Their second goal looked much better than it was. Everyone - including me - thought their geezer had lobbed our keeper, but in reality Leon Legge tried to clear the ball, and it rebounded off the striker’s knee and over the keeper and into the net. One of those things, but the defence had been too static to allow the guy into the box in the first place.

Even then I thought we had a chance to turn things round, but Boothy missed a header, and Jamie Cade put one into the school when it should have been in the back of the net. Their third was a joke - the bloke had a completely free near-post header with everyone running away from the ball - and it looked like they had got a fourth when the ref signalled a penalty for a foul by Robbo. It was a professional foul and Robbo was sent off after only five minutes on the pitch - he had to go, to be fair - but the linesman had seen it was outside the box, and they only got a free kick, which was cleared.
