Right time to step up.
We need to see some spirit, fight and pride in the shirt.
The likes of Worrall, Dawson, smith, mighten and Yates who have been at NFFC and know what it is about need to be giving some of these over paid prima-donnas what for.
We are in the mire. Don’t want to fight then do one... run through brick walls - compete for every ball, want the ball, play forwards, carry the ball- forwards...shoot, tackle and pass.
You owe us...

Oz you made a rallying call and called the players over paid prima-donnas. What sort of a rallying call is that :s
I know what you mean though and I completely agree with you.

I'd imagine there has been a few rallying calls already, the last one was probably on Saturday with Worrall being captain but it fell on deaf ears.

It certainly fell on deaf ears with a certain midfielder who got himself sent off for deliberate handball.

I’m not having that- Yates may not be the best and most blessed footballer but he is far from the first to point fingers at - even for that goal / pen. 1. Sambas mistake 2. He was pushed. 3. Instinctive desperately defending the goal.
Pick another scapegoat...

If Yates had done nothing and allowed it to go in he would of got lambasted too. He was in a no win situation caused by samba's pathetic handling.

I'm sorry I do not buy it's instinctive to handle a ball if it comes past you. Otherwise there'd be handballs all over the pitch.
The goal was a monumental f-up all around.
1. It wasnt a foul. But Knockeart (or whoever it was) should know that the ref will give it. Don't give the ref a chance to make easy/bad decision.
2. Samba had to claim the ball not wait for Christmas.
3. Samba was fouled as he clearly had 2 hands on ball, but due to his static nature made it easy for the ref to make a bad decision.
4. Yates was pushed/fouled.
5. Yates should not handle the ball, especially so early on in the game. Too big a risk.
However this is just 1 goal and 1 match. We have been poor for a long time, and players will get stick. They get praised when winning, that's the way it goes.
The players and manager are the only ones who can fix it, and I hope that things start to get better soon!
