Re: So who do you want to be relegated Blyth or Farsley>
Should be Rushall as they’ve not got their ground issues sorted yet have ‘found’ money to splash on loans from Fzl clubs to keep them up.

Re: Darlington V Southport
Good solid win. Much needed with both Rushall and Farsley winning. Looking bleak for Blyth as they have two stinking final games away at Scunthorpe then home to Brackley

Re: Easter Monday at Warrington Town
I fancy us to sneak this…which is good because we need to. I am worried that another poor display/result would pile pressure onto the next 2 Saturdays where we have a history of falling flat when the expectation levels are high. It’d be great to see Nelson back and for Cornish to rediscover his form...

Re: Complacency
Accurate reflection of yesterday. Rushall have BS as their game in hand but they have a pretty nasty run-in. Farsley’s isn’t great either. Their game in hand is PS who they play home and away in the space of a few days. Another stat from yesterday is that Carver, Southport’s key forward, was sent of...

They are not our local rivals. They never have been and never will be. A local rivalry is deep-rooted, historic, cultural, religious, political etc. We share none of that with them despite their desperate efforts to create something. Please don’t pander to them. That is a ridiculous statement. You ...

Re: Boston v Darlington 20/02/24
Barrow plays well as a left sided CB, but that means moving Hedley back to LB. I thought Hedley was excellent at RB last night. I’d definitely look to keep him if we drop to the NPL

Re: Good luck Steve Watson
It is pretty widely accepted that Armstrong didn’t (wouldn’t/couldn’t ??) coach players. We often saw pretty poor sides do a job on us simply because they were well drilled/coached and had a simple game plan that their players understood, bought into and executed. He does have other qualities like m...

Re: Who next?
And Spenny have now got shot of Dickman. Wonder if they've got Fenton lined up already. I'm afraid skint and probably relegated Darlo are maybe at the end of the queue. It's looking like we had our big chance and a clear run at the managerial market when we sacked AA. Now the water is muddied. I'm ...

Re: Who next?
…or we will get our man that DJ had clearly already been in contact with 2 weeks ago (at least). He takes two training sessions this week, changes the formation to make us more direct. We snatch a late winner at Kings Lynn and become a horrible team to play. BM becomes a hostile fortress that teams ...

Re: Who next?
Unless the new guy has funds to strengthen the squad then think it’s game over for this season. These players are not good enough for NLN. BM is an easy place for teams to pick up points. We lost key players this time last year and replaced them with players of a much lower standard. Without Beck an...

Which of AAs signings did AA say were substandard?

He said we couldn’t replace ‘Becky’ with signings of a similar standard when we’d signed Dec Howe and Jacob Blyth…he was right as they were dire
