Yes, how many times have we debated/questioned formations and set-ups on the forum this year compared to last year?

I think we have had the odd post from a few people in particular debating if we are playing 4-4-2 or 4-3-1-2, 4-3-2-1 etc etc.

How did he get on yesterday. Asking a lot to come in with little preparation, especially against the sort of hoofball that Alfreton use. By the sound of it he did OK.

Like others have said, I'm pleased that staying in the EFL has been ruled out - obviously nothing personal, but anything else would have set a terrible precedent and only encouraged rogue/stupid owners to gamble money they haven't got in the hope that success will somehow generate enough to keep the...

O'Neill isn't being asked to fill in the attacking midfielders' role, it would be nonsense to do that. He's a proper forward who holds the ball up well and gets in the box as he should (needs to work on finishing though). So as he is playing as a front man, and Campbell is playing as a front man, t...

At least me and you didn't have too long to drive back Alfie. Some of the other poor buggers will have a good hour or so to,get back yet.

Small consolation, but at least I have had my tea and am sat with my feet up feeling depressed, wondering at what time I can decently get the alcohol out

First game of season - very disappointing. Different personnel but seemed very similar to last season. No obvious game plan, slow ponderous build up, lots of long diagonal balls to the wing - almost inevitably swallowed up by their full backs, defensive lapses gave them both their goals. Up front Ca...

I'm sure they will be back like we were. I just wish we'd maintained our momentum as we've now reached our level unless someone is prepared to invest serious money and supprters can accept it and relenquish a bit of power. Otherwise we'll never get back in the football league. New account and first...

Dale has just been on sky news saying he wants the football league to reinstate the club what a pig headed egoist this man is also told all the volunteers he wanted them out of the ground and not to damage the stadium yesterday afternoon after the deal fell through to save the club and they had spe...

Sadly, no more Shakers v Quakers games. Hope they can become another successful phoenix club in the future. Now that the first club this season has gone, what will the effects be on the pyramid? A number of other struggling clubs will be pushed closer to the brink as they lose out on revenue from t...

Great effort as usual Kev

I'm sure Darlo fans can be relied upon to be discrete.

Seems to have made an excellent first impression - scored from 40 yards (did he ever do that for us?) https://twitter.com/StratfordTownFC/status/1160212376693682179 How many Leagues below NLN are they? Stratford play in the step 3 Southern League Central - the league that Kettering and King's Lynn ...

Maybe I've missed it, but do we have an assistant manager/coach. I know we have a keeper coach, but with White gone and Thomas appointed as the academy/youth/U23 man, is that it as far as the management team is concerned?

Just booked my train ticket for Kings Lynn away.

15 minutes by train?
Home in time for tea.

Looking forward to this one, firstly to hear AA’s view on squad and DJ update on Sports Village/Blackwell as it appears to have gone very quiet on that front. I don't know what the role of the council is in the development of the sports village but I wonder what impact the change of regime at the c...

Is Burn still under contract - I suppose if we can't offload him then a long term loan with the other club paying some of his wages might ease the burden a little bit. As for Spenny - not suprised they are looking at good players who may be available - if you have the money to do it then don't wait ...

Looking thru a website that encompasses non-league football at pretty much all levels, came across the case of Chard FC (step 6 Northern Lge 2 equivalent), who have been relegated to step 7. A club statement said this was "after the Football Association ruled their sloping pitch does not meet the cr...

Obviously not happy - taking legal advice.

Hopefully we have done everything by the book and this is an issue between AA and Blyth

I think seeing pre-season games as a potential money maker doesn't work - at least for us. Aside from a possibility of a decent day out somewhere it should be all about preparing the team for the coming season, which might mean games against unattractive opposition in front of a few fans.

Bloody hell, they should re-name our league National League Div 1, not impressed. to be fair to the FA - by the time we get to this stage its simply a question of looking at all the 44 teams in NL N & S and drawing a line somewhere. The real problem is the lopsided level below, with the four feeder...

Starting to get twichey Come onnnnnn! Second interviews today apparently so hopefully announcement over weekend or Monday I’d guess. If the successful candidate is currently employed and under contract then presumably we would have to negotiate a release deal with their current club - would be wron...

Another £1,600 today, including a single investment of £910.

Now at £56,707.

15 days to go. New manager over the weekend and another push to reach the target.

According to the Braintree twitter thing they expect a decision on who goes into NLN/NLS to be made at the league AGM on 8 June.

Get in. Kings Lynn promoted. Myself, my son and Grimsby Quaker will be on our way!

See you there! At last a game in the doorstep (relatively speaking) and just about home in time for tea.

For purely selfish reasons I'm hoping Kings Lynn make it this season, would be a 'home in time for tea' game for me. And knowing Darlo fans we would still have the best away following of the season at the ground.
