Re: What's the point of fan ownership?
Def think some banked standing at the way end would really help possibly something we can take with us if we move. Have to get the RC onside though and that’s the hard job but people views do change. The rugby clubs only issue is they don't want their clubhouse knocked down - and based on plans tha...

Re: What's the point of fan ownership?
Fully yes. The pipe only restricts at most a third of the away end. We know there is enough space to develop to step 1 standard. Not quite true. It restricts up to half of the away end and also part of the main stand side - it runs diagonal through the stadium footprint. There's a reason the stand ...

Re: Complacency
Job most definitely not done. It is still very much in Rushall’s hands, if they beat us they are 2 points behind us with a game in hand, and that game is against Bishop Stortford. All we have to do is win 2 of our last 6 matches (3 if you want to be sure), regardless of whether Rushall is one of th...

Re: What's the point of fan ownership?
It is a tad disingenuous to infer that an increase in playing budget is either irresponsible or out of line with other clubs at our level. Equally, any poorer financial performance eventuially reported for 2023/24 is entirely predictable and not uncommon for poorer performing teams. In short, these...

Re: Darlington V Peterborough Sports
Me personally I would go full strength at Rushall and hopefully get the win which realistically barring a complete capitulation would see us pretty much safe. Then I'd be giving a day off to the likes of Barrow, Main, Cornish in the Chorley game. Are you stupid? The lads are being ran into the grou...

Just read a really good summary and breakdown of the last set of accounts recently published. Half understand it now and was very informative. Not a moan, honest.

I don't know what's happened at Scarborough because their gobshite fans have gone quiet.theoriginalfatcat wrote: ↑Sun Mar 17, 2024 7:30 amWhat’s happened at Scarborough?
In their last ten games - no wins, 3 points, and they’ve scored 1 goal.

I agree Clearly a massive error giving the job to Gowling. I hope the board have reflected on the decision making process that allowed such a bad mistake to be made.

Re: We’ve come along way.
To be fair 97 is correct. The appointment of JG was questioned right back when the decision to employ him was made. I was another not totally sure it would work out and when weighing up the credentials it smacked of a desperate punt on something different (JG) rather than the tried and tested (SW)....

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.

Yes.
After he tried to bring Radged back because he wanted more money, we ended up doing the first BTB off the back of that. We raised around 43k IIRC.
Gray left for York not far into that first BTB season.

There's always a couple of teams who drop like a stone at t...

Re: Blyth V Darlington
I know Nelson hasn't scored very many this season but he's a far superior player to Curry and we look a lot more threatening with Nelson in the team. Cornish is doing very well again tonight but Salkeld has vanished after a good first 10 minutes.

Re: Blyth V Darlington
Blyth playing good football but Matty Young is levels above this league and so assured. I'm not knocking Tommy Taylor who has been a good servant to this club but I do think Young has gained us extra points in his loan spell from making saves that TT might not have got to? Great distribution as well...

Re: Needed points minimum
As I've said before, I expect us to stay up comfortably with room to spare - ie done before the last day, and losing at Spendy doesn't change that. We were never going to win every single match until the end of the season. Obviously mounting injuries are a concern, so we could probably do with a cou...

Re: Needed points minimum
Blyth, Rushall, Farsley and Southport matches are the definitive six-pointers. However, after the performances and results of the last 4 games prior to yesterday, I'd not rule out picking up points at home to Peterborough Sports and even Chorley. Warrington away will be difficult and ideally we don...

Re: Spennymoor V Darlington
Losing 2-1, but we'll come good..... It sounds like it could go either way. I'll not be too disheartened if we lose (as long as we don't get hammered), because Spendy are in great form. We'd still be 5 from 7 with 3 winnable matches coming up, and at least we're creating plenty of chances. I'll mor...

Anyway, on to the match, I'll snap your hands off for a point here. As long as we can follow up by beating Blyth (who are shite) and Peterborough Sports.
7 points from 3 would set us up very nicely for Rushall away.
