Wednesday 13th September.

Steve Bruce reportedly kept the players locked in the changing room for about an hour after the game to give them a piece of his mind or whatever he does in there. Perhaps he should have brought the players back out to face the fans to hear a few more home truths from those who made the effort to turn out last night. Having said that there was such a feeling of apathy throughout the crowd that the fans would probably have been long gone, although if you read the HTAFC.COM website you would have thought that the atmosphere was buzzing – they obviously don’t sit in the Kilner Bank stand.

Even our soon to depart chairman had a few choice words to say accusing three or four players (who apparently know who they are) of not performing. He said that some players ‘weren’t all there’, which thankfully is where Mr Ayre will be quite soon – not here. Seeing as he is working his notice why can’t he be a little more honest and name these under-performing players, or does he still need a reference for his next job?

The only players who got a modicum of praise were Rob Kozluk who did perform pretty well even though most of his crosses were aimed at his 7 foot 9 imaginary friend, but at least he tried. The other was Jon Dyson who, although short on real talent, has been a great servant to the club, and showed this with some decent tackles when he came on as a second half substitute, and at least he looked interested.
