Apologies if this has already been posted.
When did they sign Martin Britain, goodness me.

Good to see WSC still going strong

Fatty you're better than that. I don't get this impression this Darlo side will be of that ilk.

I really don't care how we do it princes town, I just want us promoted!

If it means playing everyone off the pitch or kicking them off it I don't care!

I want us up. Not to be everyone's friend. Simple!

They had a pre-season game against Ambleside the other day and only 10 players turned up so the physio had to play.

I'm really not convinced about CN. Lee is getting on and anyone with speed will give him problems. Jeff Smith isn't anything special, Boyd could be good but there are no guarantees. I'm not worried by them

If they dont get off to a good start then all the good players will leave by January and join teams near the top or teams in higher leagues.

No they won't because all of the good players will be on contract.

I have it on good authority from an ex Northern League chairman that Celtic Nation should not be worried about. The players signed have been given good money to play, 'and thats all' ....

That doesn't reassure me. Boyd, Lee and Arny are all proper professionals and frankly I just can't see any of them going through the motions.

Good point. I'm trying to get a list of their squad.

Lowson will be quality at this level. Jeff Smith is anyone's guess, has the ability if he can be arsed.

Cheers mate. As I say I really rated Jeff Smith. The Spenny guy said on Thursday that budgets don't make team which I thought was interesting. Well done with the sponsorship by the way.

Boyd has left the club, a 'mutual decision' apparently.

Dan Lowson is also suffering from a knee cartilage injury.

Didn't the same happen to Michael Brough? If so then he could be out for a while.

Spendit Nation are no threat now their star player is gone.

Their other star players are Paul Arnison, Graeme Lee and Jeff Smith. No threat then - Lee isn't fit yet, Arnison spends his life tweeting about his calfs being dodgy, and Smith is fucking crap.

We can cross these fuckers off the list.

Only 4 teams are in it to win it, Us, Spenny, Bedlington and West.

Depends on the nature of the injury. I tore my cartilage, had an operation and was right as rain in 3 weeks.

I would also include Shildon right now. I think they would need to ship a few points over the next couple of months to drop off the radar.

Shildon lack in strength in depth. They also have nothing upfront. Billy Greulich Smith is a total donkey.
