Earlier in the season you said that whatever skills he showed, a striker's job was to score goals and he wasn't getting them. Now he's the only one who is, you give him no credit because - vaguely - he's useless in some other way. This seems to suggest to me that you look for reasons to condemn him, rather than actually judging what you see.
I don't care what you think of him, but it doesn't seem to me to be a genuine judgement, just a prejudice. What he said

Play-offs is what we should hope for now. Automatic place is too far out of sight, it would take a major balls up from Barnet and even then you have the likes of Macclesfield and Grimsby sniffling around. Totally agree.We were never good enough to win the league anyway. Play offs would be a realistic goal. We have consistently struggled to score goals against mediocre opposition. No excuses. I dont do realistic. The automatic spot is not beyond us. Defeats can happen. We have some tough games but then so do Barnet. No time for throwing in the towel. The bus is still moving along. We might just do it. Ground Breaking can still happen.

He's confusing Goldberg with Taylor. Who is definately useless. But another goal today, which you used to say was his weakness. Your position lacks integrity. At the start of the season everyone on this forum was slating Taylor. for the exact problems he still has now. just because he has scored 5-6 poor goals from open play does not mean he has improved. blisset has scored 8 including his kiddie appearances but is still acussed of being poor.

I don't understand why the majority of criticism after the game has been of our strikers. We scored two today and that should have been enough to win the game. Defensive errors clearly cost us. It's very frustrating but on a pitch like that, not altogether surprising. Keep the faith, gasheads.

Could somebody define a "good" good compared to a "poor" one as I'm a bit baffled by that comment? I'm not going to slag Blisset off as that's as bad as the constant Taylor criticism but he's hardly putting in MotM performances each week, but then again since LDV departed the service to our strikers as been poor at best. If we can continue to win our home games & draw, or even win, our away games we can still put pressure on Barnet.

Mildy had a shocker and their free kick was very good and came about from a decision of a handball that could easily have gone our way. We lost this game in midfield.

Poor goals. A new concept in football after all these decades.
Taylor must feel honoured.
edit: (This is exactly my point: trying to find reasons to criticise. It's a prejudice, rather than an honest evaluation.)

It's not ideal but that football! We're still second in with a chance of promotion and in a better position most of us thought we would be 6 months ago. These draws won't take us up automatically granted but it will make us one hell of a difficult team to get pass in the play offs! ok, so football results just 'happen' do they?? the mgr / players have no influence on it? Of course they do. Hence why we have as many points as we do right now. That's down to the manager and players... and an element of luck of course. The point is teams can come from behind to draw or win. Football isn't an exact science, going ahead gives you a huge advantage obviously but it doesn't mean you're going to win.

We all know his limitations. That's just another attempt to find some justification to run him down. It's a prejudice, not a real judgement.

Wasn't there but this sounds right, can't understand why we didn't start Dawson as without Sinclair and on a pitch like that getting service to strikers must have been a priority. Onwards

If the players that play for us were of a higher standard then they would be playing for some other team in a higher league...think some should put their efforts into supporting our players rather than slagging them off..rant over...UTG

But how can we drop Taylor when he is far ahead of anyone else in the goal stakes -especially lately? I don't care who we drop, sell or buy right now. But it has to be an improvement... unless we just want to take a wild gamble. with Easter injured so early there may be no decision to be made. It'll prob be back to Taylor & blissett as shoe-ins.
