Prices have to be agreed between both clubs, and Hendon will want to make as much money as they can from the game, as will have Mickleover

Even though we're in a lowly league, the club is in a better state than it's been for many a year. The future should be bright! -

Thanks to everyone at the club for following through with this, our family had a fantastic day on Saturday, we were well looked after We were on a table with Joe Royle himself, so seeing my dad just get to natter away with him all day was fantastic https://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/2023/october/30102023-simon-barnett-75-years/ -
Nors, Green and Sheron.

Sounds like a knowledgeable lad. All players are going to have some sort of drawbacks at this level, it's just a question of if you're able to mask them and accentuate the positives, or if the deficiencies are just too obvious and exploitable. Of course opposition players at this level might but be good enough to exploit them either, it goes both ways. Sheron in particular is an interesting one, bit inconsistent, but I like him a lot on his good days, and he should get that consistency as he goes into his later 20s. I think people assume he's older than he has (just turned 25 I think) -

At the game with my dad, sister and nephew, and Luke Rothwell and Darren Royle have just been chatting with us for ages, just reinforcing how good we've got it with them. It came up that this October will be my dad's 75th anniversary of his first ever game, and we've been offered to go in the directors' box as their guests! We're thrilled, simple gesture I suppose but we're blown away, great start to the day, three points would top it off nicely!- 602 replies

Couto still only 19, but it's correct to say he needs to play games or risk his career stalling. But TNS are full time, so a good opportunity for him to push on there.

The comment was that he was hoping to get three more players in by the Southend game.

You could argue that we moved into a 4 at the back when Mansfield came into the final third with Kitching tracking back, but it was very much a 3 at the back system in the main. Hogan played central and was tasked with mopping up any high long balls, and Hobson and Raglan played either side, Hobson clearly not advancing forward as a RB would. He drifted towards the right at some points, to cover for Green who would be exposed if he was asked to defend too much, so I can see why some were caught out. (edit: thought I'd challenge what I thought I saw and asked my dad, he messaged back saying pretty much what I did, but with the amount Mansfield had the ball at the start of the second half it might as well have been a 4)

Don't know about any other games, but he was part of 3 at the back today

Pitch played proper, no demons in it or loose turf line you can get on some freshly laid pitches You can tell it's easier to turn and control the ball First bounce from a long ball takes it on quite a bit, but then it doesn't run out like plastic, it holds up alright Weird to see away fans in main stand but I can't see there being any major issues Raglan looks good
