Re: Darlington V Peterborough Sports

Next week reminds me of our game v Colchester in 89. Not win or bust, but certainly not lose. I say that because Bishops Stortford is one of their games in hand. 89 was roles reversed, as we were on an OK run, but Colchester was on a great run, and we crumbled under the pressure of the occasion. Win...

Re: The Bottom Ten, Saturday Mar 16th 2024

The Rushall v Goliath approach is a dangerous game to play, as we found to our cost. I wonder if subconsciously it gives a team an excuse to lose, rather than being a motivating factor.
I don't believe TM and SW have once mentioned finances of other teams. Instead they talk purely on football terms.

Re: The Bottom Eight, Tuesday Mar 03rd 2024

I think a lot more leeway is granted now. David Johnston said this after a conversation with Mark Ives, chairman of the National League, who said it wouldn't be a good look if teams were penalised while the financial dip is on. Same happened with Peterborough Sports, who didn't finish the work by Ma...

Re: Darlington v Banbury 2/03/24

I'm going to stick my head above the parapet and say we need 53 points. Southport have the best fixtures, and Bishops Stortford at home. I think Rushall do too. Banbury have 2 games in hand, Rushall one. Despite 3 wins in a row, we're still playing catch up, with 2 stinking fixtures to come. I think...

Some recent quotes by Steve Watson 'Buxton had 2 six foot centre halves so rather than pumping hign balls in we had to fizz them across'. 'We needed to be comfortable with letting Curzon have the ball because they're a posession team'. 'With the players we have we need to pull the opposition players...

I had the same injury after a fall. The only thing you can't do is turn your wrist. The hospital put me in a cast. 3 days later I visited the fracture clinic where the consultant cut the cast off and said that the best thing to do is get it moving again, and that if it's sore then just rest it in a ...

Re: Asante

2 points.

1. The unrelated groin injury could be an over-compensation injury caused by the other long-standing groin problem.
2. I'd rather people were bishop bashing when he scores loads of goals.

I thought Rushall won 3-2, then went back to check knowing that you probably won't get that wrong, and it was a Flashscores error, so you've cheered me up no end.

Club have made a statement MG won’t be coming back, the search goes on.
Well that’s our best chance of survival thrown away. I will be at the game today and giving the team my total support, but I will have to reflect on my long term future financial support of the club.
And MG has won.

Quakers 2009, it was actually a direct response to the fact that a fan said that we'd lost 4-0 at Tamworth, to which he said 'Google it', which makes it even worse. We're entering Comical Ali territory here.
