Re: Asante

most of us were happy when Asante signed. It's really easy in hindsight to say it was a mistake and the board should have done something. Find it ridiculous

Re: Pete Jameson

Heard a few rumours that he might be coming. Reliable? Nothing at all so far? Quite reliable and then darlo retro posted a picture of him so only fuelled the rumour Darlo Retro is Stoddart. He’s made a mistake before when he announced Aaron Martin was being announced when it was BS :lol: Although P...

Re: Southport

Thought we started well, and the majority of players worked hard, but totally lacked up front. Players like Hedley who had a solid game defending often gave the ball straight back to their players. Saying that if he could hit the target he has a great shot from distance on him. Will Hatfield run hi...

We shouldn’t be left to assume that.

He’s not exactly proven. Struggled with Marske most of the season. Not managed in this league…

Re: Darlington V Bishops Stortford

So many things I just don't understand from yesterday's game. It was baffling. Firstly, I thought we were ok in the first half. Played some ok football, but final pass wasn't good enough. Had ample opportunities to play the ball through and the final ball was garbage. A few fans complained about pas...

Re: Gloucester (A)

Another way to look at it is those 3 wins have come in last 7 league games, with 2 draws. More points than in previous 14 league games. Some encouragement surely. The upturn in form (I'd only call it moderate form) is since the change from the ridiculous persistence of playing 3 at the back. And th...

Curzon 3rd with 81 points. Southport just sneak away from relegation, and Blyth 14th just behind Spenny in 13th...not likely IMO

Its possible to back the board and still think Gowling was the wrong choice. I didnt think Wright was the right choice either but given his connections I thought it might work out. How Gowling was first choice, given his record, baffles me even more than Wright did. 100%. The board of this club are...

It’ll be a tough game this one, Buxton are well fancied as a promotion contender this season. Agree with the previous post regarding Hazel, his form isn’t great at the moment. For me, Barnes was more effective against Shields when moved to left of the front 3 rather than deeper in midfield. Taylor ...
