Maybe put it down to the travelling today.

To be honest that result has been coming, especially in the last couple of games, failing to see off a weak Dagenham side and then our 2nd half performance at Wealdstone. I know it's a trek on a Tuesday night, but I've not seen us capitulate like that in a long time - I don't think I've seen a worse Sutton performance since the replay at Billericay.
Not going to single any player out because to be honest I don't think anyone had a good game. I'm hoping this is just a one off.

Still no good... I'm settling for Mixlr & AB. You must log out before using a different device. I never got the the opportunity to log-in in the first place!

Yup, too sluggish at both ends of the pitch. It was always going to be an uphill battle from 2-0 down at the interval, the third goal (their best) killed the contest, and a miscommunication between Goodliffe and Bouzanis allowed them an opportunistic fourth.
After conceding only six goals in our first eight games we've now let in seven in two. What's gone wrong? Answers on a postcard...

What particular Saturday would you have chosen OS? Like any other season postponed on a Saturday, rescheduled midweek.
Improved second half but then to concede twice in three minutes when they had done little all the half is disappointing. They scored one decent goal.
Been a great start to the season but not our night tonight. Onwards we go.

Somewhat understandable as the team spent many hours on a train wearing face coverings and probably rushed to the ground. We have let in 7 in last two games and have quickly gone from one of the best defences in the league to one of the poorest.

Goodliffe and John were excellent together last season so I am not buying one under par performance makes them the scapegoats. Both missed much of the start of the season and now games coming thick and fast. Agree that Coby was outstanding at start of season.
Hardly ideal prep stuck on a train for so long.

Lewis is a class act but probably under cooked having had that injury. It just the way we conceded the goals to night.

Eastmond moved to midfield 🤷♂️ Though I still think the train travel was the killer, your suggestion is something that was a factor since Harry returned to Sutton. When Harry and Craig played in midfield Sutton rarely won prior to this year. However if they were in different ranks, most often Craig in the back line but occasionally Harry playing as a forward, then the results were better.

Not at all. Harry has been on the left wing for the last two matches and that's not ideal.We had chances last night but just didn't take them.

Maybe Harry should play as a forward or just behind as I think he is the best poacher in our team.

Our delivery isn't there, lacking quality where we need it. They are giving us chances... Yes agree with os! Our free kicks too night and corners were so poor, also letting in goals from a root one goal kick was. Poor. Looked better when Olaofe came on, more direct. We need a bounce back Saturday!
