The most embarrassing performance and result since we became a football league club in 2011.


As a football club we have hit a new low, when we already thought sitting bottom of the entire football league couldn’t get any worse, we end up being out fought and outplayed by a team who plays at the same level as Three Bridges.
Let that sink in for a minute… a team who plays in a stadium not much different to Jubilee Field has just knocked us out of the FA Cup first round in front of a national television audience.
Losing last season at Boreham Wood at the same stage was bad, but this is next level stuff.
Only this club could produce a result like this one. Four hundred and seventy six Reds fans gave up a whole Remembrance Sunday to attend this horror show in Dorset. Wimborne is probably one of the trickiest places to get too, especially by public transport. It’s quicker to get to Manchester and Liverpool by train than it is to get to the South West. Yet we take the largest away following of the season, and the players let us down like that. Absolutely disgusting.
After talking up all the positivity of the last two league results against Tranmere & Oldham, it’s such a shame that the team have let Kevin Blackwell down so spectacularly. All I can say is thank god the Rotherham game has been postponed. At least it saves us another wasteful day out.
Where do we go from here? Who knows. All I know is if I was one of those players who have let the club down massively and embarrassed every fan who attended and those that watched at home, then a reaction needs to be seen at home to Fleetwood Town in the shape of a performance and a win.
