Tuned into Final Score about 4.55 and thought my eyesight was going...surely "2" not "7"? Anyway, not all doom and gloom, we can concentrate on the Cup now.

Who was it that commented that today was the best time to play Stockport Co after their defeat by Aldershot. Listened to the home commentary they made the point that Stockport were on fire after that defeat. No excuses for Sutton. not sure how MAtt can explain that away. Onwards and upwards for Sutton see you on Saturday!

Recommend Ye Olde Vic for the drowning of sorrows for the unhappy few who ventured up to Stockport

For whatever reason and despite his best efforts, it does seem that Matt can’t get a new tune out of these players. I don’t think it’s disloyal to suggest that Either they collectively are not up to League 2 or it’s gone stale.
Danny Crowley is available -is that someone to consider, needs a fresh challenge to get back on track so might he be tempted?

I got the whole family tickets for Wimbledon away game, starting to regret that decision as its likely going to be humiliation again. Hah! Not so jammy after all, paz! Unless you want to forecast the score...?

Perspective from my south coast based wife (played football at school, attends the occasional match, fancies Joe Kizzi), via txt; 'I just saw the final score. Did our goalie get sent off or something!?'

Danny Crowley is available -is that someone to consider, needs a fresh challenge to get back on track so might he be tempted? It is not disloyal to mention Matt and may be it is time for a change and a new voice in the dugout. Matt will know if he cannot get a tune out of these players because I’m sure he does not want the club to go down. Regards Danny Cowley I’m not sure about him because he did struggle a bit at Portsmouth. ⚽️⚽️⚽️ Danny Cowley would be a fantastic appointment. Don't worry about his time at Pompey, he still left them tenth in League One. I confess I know little about Sutton United, I've never been to Surrey in my life and I'm too old to ever visit now. I note you're now officially part of Greater London but I imagine most of you prefer your historic affiliation. What is the situation regarding investment in your club? I saw reference to American money. Has that made for a decent transfer budget? You have one ace in your pack regarding the Cowleys. It is nearly a year since they left Fratton Park. I was astonished when they turned down the Bradford City job a few weeks ago. But it would seem the brothers are unwilling to take a job that would mean living away from their family homes which remain in Hampshire. Until recently I'd have said Sutton United wouldn't have had a ghost of a chance of attracting Danny and Nicky. But a quick google reveals the journey from Portsmouth to Sutton takes eighty minutes; very commutable. It's still highly unlikely that the Cowleys would be interested but it's not out of the question. Should they join you I'd be very confident you'd need worry no longer about relegation. If there is a reasonable transfer kitty I could see a challenge for the League Two play-offs next season. Anyway, Good Luck to you and may you avoid the drop whoever is in charge!

The post match interviews will be interesting!! Matt's biggest defeat but almost certainly the shortest interview that can be summed up in three words: "embarrassing", "hurt" and "apologise".

Just been out all afternoon at a Christmas carols concert in a very happy mood …… and then I checked the score . Not so happy now 😢.
Now it’s true to say that my favourite carol is “ Little donkey “ ( my wife says it is not a carol ) so my question is ….. did we have eleven of them playing for us today ?
Still , I will not call for Matt to go because as I said on this forum a few weeks ago I am reconciled to us going down and this result obviously does little to dissuade me from that opinion . Looking forward to Matt’s interview but cannot bring myself to watch it just yet .
If by chance any players read this forum ( surely none would be that stupid but there again ) I would suggest that they look for another club in January because they are clearly not worth their wages and should go so that we can start building for next season in the National League . Looking forward to the usual let’s not panic posters now !
