We can't blame the ref for yesterdays defeat. I was pretty close to the free kick that led to the first goal and it looked the right decision to me. The penalty looked very questionable and gave Leiston an undeserved 2-0 which we were never going to get back from.
We need to sort out our strikers, I don't know whats going on with Mike Dixon, but Omar Fulkes looks totally ineffective as a lone front man, doesn't hold the ball up, is immobile and doesn't look to have a goal in him. Would it have been any different with Dixon? Probably not.
We looked instantly better as soon as Simpson came on for Fulkes but still couldn't produce any decent scoring opportunities.
The 2-0 scoreline flattered Leiston and we maybe deserved a draw, but they scored and we didn't. Until we stop giving the opposition defenders such an easy ride we are going to continue struggling at the bottom.

We've been blessed over the years with some prolific marksmen, Juneman, Tompkins, Collins, Webb, Vines, Summers to name but a few. We don't have anyone who falls into that bracket (or any adjacent bracket) at the minute but prolific goalscorers aren't easy to come by. I still like Dixon though. Simpson's got good potential but he's only young and already he looks too heavy.

Surely its a strikers job to do more than just score goals. What happened to defending from the front, putting the odd challenge in, competing for the ball, closing down etc, none of which Fulkes or Dixon do any of.
