  1. Would be absolutely bonkers to back the manager to the extent they have over the summer and then sack him after one game...
  2. Think Leiston are above them, and could yet get promoted to the NLS...
  3. Worth acknowledging that a lot of their core squad have been around for more than a few months, though. None of Palmer, Slocombe, Brindley, Rawlinson, Cameron, Rodrigues, Chicksen, Nemane, O'Brien, Vincent were signed this season. They've spent money on the positions they needed to strengthen, rather than completely overhauling the whole squad like we have (twice). I think it'll take 2-3 years for us to be properly competitive at the top of the division...
  4. This is a bizarre take, even by your standards...
  5. It's interesting that in sports where current levels of performance can objectively be compared with historical levels, athletes generally seem to be 'better' than their predecessors. I'm thinking of athletics, swimming, cycling where performance is measured against the clock. Seems a bit implausible to me that the opposite is happening in football, despite people telling us it was better in the olden days...
  6. Danny Boshell was on the bench for Bradford (Park Avenue) on Monday, in the division below us. He's 42 in May...
  7. Not sure about this... spent a lot of his career with Everton who for most of the time he was there were languishing in the bottom-half of the division. I'd have thought that hard work, exploiting home advantage and squeezing as much out of fairly limited players (at that level) would be right up his street...
  8. Feels a bit unfair - he hadn't even taken over by the Woking game...
  9. Seems a solid if unspectacular signing. Contract to 2025 seems generous...
  10. I'm convinced that given enough time, he'll come good. Ludicrous to be calling for his head after 9 games...
  11. I reckon Vaughan'll have a couple of largely unsuccessful loan spells in the NLN before being released on a free in a couple of years' time... ...sincerely hope I'm wrong, though.
  12. It was tongue-in-cheek... I don't think I'll be proven wrong. I'd be surprised if we finish above mid-table.
  13. Very much looking forward to being proven wrong when the season gets underway
  14. Dean Furman commentating on the AFCON on BBC Two.
  15. I was quite excited when we signed Poleon. Then I saw him play...
  16. Unfortunate for the lad, quite clearly accidental. What's the rule, excessive force? Not sure quite how it can be deemed an excessive accident... though admittedly it could've done some serious damage - right down the achilles.
