Re: Leamington new ground
Don't forget the Council gave us the new all-weather pitch/car park built on former cattle market site! Zero potholes there. Wasted opportunity for a stadium

Re: Rushall v Darlington
Felt sorry for the large travelling contingent who were badly let down by our 2nd half display. Poor game management after we've scored, cost us dearly.

Re: Aidan Rutledge
Aidan is only 1 inch shorter than Mark Beck, but hope he can score as many goals as Beck. It will give us a new attacking option, missing since Beck left.

Re: Over the years ~ In what position have we had the best players?
Would have loved to see David Speedie upfront with Marco.
Alan Walsh on the wing to provide for them both.

Re: Rushall tickets
I think that they relaxed the Saturday embargo but that this was only a temporary move and stopped some time at or near the beginning of this month. I know that it does not have the same profile as an FA cup game but for me it is beginning to feel a bit like the trip to Walsall in terms of importan...

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. Wi...

We would have lost that game over the last 12 months.

Re: The Bottom Ten, Tuesday Mar 12th 2024
Points on the board are better than games in hand for Banbury given the state of their pitch & internal strife. We just need to keep winning & Steve W plus Terry have the nous to keep us up (with the crowd behind them!)

Re: Blyth V Darlington
Massive win & seemed in control most of the game, apart from last 15 minutes. Credit to Steve W & Terry, in fact the whole team & travelling support. I think we could easily get some of the nail bars in town as sponsors or at least pay for an advertising hoarding at BM.

Worried with how knackered they all look. Desperately need some new bodies in but doesn't seem to be any whiff of that. We're a Cedric Main injury away from disaster. I was thinking that about Main yesterday. If he got nobbled we would be in bother. You are forgetting about Asante who is only two m...

Re: What's the point of fan ownership?
Ask any Rochdale fan who are currently in dire financial trouble e.g. need £2M to avoid liquidation. There are now 2 interested parties after an EGM decided to dilute the fans ownership by issuing 9 million new shares but seeking to retain the "golden share" which would allow them to protect the nam...

Re: Darlo V Scunthorpe
Form table from the last 5 games has us 2nd with 12 points and Scunny 16th with only 5 which is a lot better than it was when we were due to play them originally. The most important thing for me is we don't pick up any more injuries and that our heads don't drop it we do lose, because they are a go...

You know what, when I was looking at Matty warming up, windmilling his arms and flinging them from side to side I thought I was watching Tony Moor! That used to be what he used to do before every game.(Note to younger readers, he was our keeper in the 1960s and quite a good one). Good enough that E...

Re: Darlington v Buxton
For a long time looked like Buxton would benefit from a stupid mix-up of an OG but eventually with a couple of decent & timely subs, more attacking & forward passes, we were richly rewarded with 2 late goals to give us a glimmer of hope + 3 vital points.

Re: Darlington v Buxton
Looking at the injured list, surely Sukar must be recalled. Having a young GK playing behind a scratch defence does not bode well, yet it is another game that we must win to have any chance of avoiding relegation.
