Out muscled still top

But to add a comment...Hudds were not dirty, OK, they shojuld have ben down to 10 men, but they pushed and pushed and pushed and the ref let them. We stood off them and they played their bog game. But, they did not have a crafty or clever player amongst them. We were off the boil. Only Taylor and Hughes emerged with real credit.

Why did Shez bring on McGrath???? Surely this was a Davies game? Time for Fleming?

Well done lads - brilliant effort, much respect!

Well Done. Does anyone know what has happened to the Ernie Fund? Has it been handed over?

There will be highlights of the match plus interviews on Fridays Football Show on Channel M

Why bother, the reception is poor. and I live only 6 miles from the centre of Manchester.

How did Davies play yesteray & O'Grady. I am a bit worried that our back up pair have not scored many goals so far. Has Alexandra gone off the boil as well?

what are they dithering over? either sign him or not,whats the problem.

He might not want to sign. He may be waiting for a contract in Holland, and a month keeps his options open. If he can play centre half as well, we may need him at Tranmere today when they go route 1.

Not a chance in Hell that Kelvin will leave. He is a dead cert for right back should Eardley improve enough to warrant a bid.

If these Arabs are as rich as SSN are making out ('think Chelsea but ten times bigger') then we could be fooked when it comes to Richards.

Except that this is city and the wheels will fall off pretty quickly.

"The problem with the stewarding is the 'recruitment' of them, mostly by private companies that have no connection to the club at all. In Manchester they use showsec ... a private firm that only people with 'door badges' can join. "

Can I just say that my daughter worked for Showsec, as student, and has never been anywhere near "door badges". She is did it to help pay her student debt during the summer.

not saying rugby is boring , but i once went to watersheddings to watch oldham rugby and fell asleep watching the game .

I once went to the Sheddings and climbed out at half time!

Surely the Chapel Road land must be worth a small fortune? If I remember rightly, isn't the land 2/3 owned by the club? It must be worth £m's. Plus if TTA are also into land buying and selling, they will be well aware of what is available out there....the farm on Broadway may be worth a lot less now and could be a good site!

Sorry I just needed to get it off my chest

An alternative site for a new training facility could be Carlton Way, why not demolish all of the nice little bunglaows and remove the problem about traffic and rat runs? The residents could be offered a new flat on the BP car park?

After the game, in the pub, I spoke to two Latics fans who no longer go. But they both said that there were thinking of going.

Asked why they didn't go.. the answer was the same. £20 = 10 pints of beer. Now, irrespective of habits, the simple fact is that for a working class town, £20 is too much for Third Division football.

Any answer has to involve incentives for supporters to come back to football and leave shopping/boozing/TV.

Drop the price I say.

Actually, I think he's a damn fine manager!

Make sure you wear your Latics colours tonight when Manure lose to Portsmouth.. go in and have a glass of water and smirk.

How did Kieron Lee play

Lee had a steady game. But if he was part of the first team he would look far better. Very able on the ball. Fleming had a good game. For me, he is better than Crossley but we are waiting for Crossley to cock up before he gets his chance.

Stephens looks class.

Stam was solid.

Thompson was good.

Black was very good till he left the field with concusion.

All in all a very good first game for the stiffs. But they need to be in a league.

Squad includes; Fleming, Bell, Stephens, JP, Thomo, Black, Stam, Lee and Smalley .... just shows what a strong squad we have this year.

City's rererves have a Central League match away against the Lashers this afternoon so goodness knows what team they will put out. Mind you, I bet that I only know 2 or 3 of their first team players.

Paul Jewell doesn't think so!

I thought that he looked very poor when he played at BP and wondered whyDerby had bought him. Glad Huuds have him as he will be an dead weight for them.

he palyed first half against rhyl

 

sounded like a dog and i aint joking !

Yep, I saw him at Rhyl and he must have been hoarse after his half.. he looked OK, confident, came off his line well and had the lunacy you want to see from a goalie but I bet that he wasn't much in front of Josh Bell. If he had been 6ft 6" then he would have been taken on.

I find that annoying also. But not as annoying when nothing plays until i switch to medium rather than high settings even though i am on a 8mb broadband speed.

 

Whats that about ?

Yep , it annoys me as well.

.

Alan always replies, sometimes too quickly! Beware that your email may not get to him, I did have a problem once with email "switches" whereby I cojuld reach him from work email but not from home.

Taylor at left back, O'Grady leftish wing, Davies running about and wining few balls, ..how many more permutations does Shez have up his sleeve? Liddle was great on Saturday on the wing, Taylor was equally good. Why change it? We will never have a settled side. And where is this passing game?

Hughes has outside chance of playing tomorrow! Bet he is a sub....

I believe the club are having a new kit made, same design just with the Carbrini logo instead of hillstone... Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

 

Also heard it comes from China.. so it might not be here in time for the Millwall game

And the cost will be 75p and sold for £40.

I saw Droylsden wallop Ashton United 4-0 at Hurst Cross a couple of weeks ago.

If the above lot of full time professionals can't improve on that then I think the manager may have to ask some serious questions about the quality of his squad.

Saw the stiffs and left 2/3 through the match. THe pitch was the great winner. Tidy performances from most but the weakness was converting possession into strikes on goal. Stam looked rusty. THomson was OK. Lee looked tricky but lost the ball a bit. Not a great game but useful to get the rust off.

Really we need to be playing better quality stiffs on decent surfaces. Bit of a waste really.

Wish we had a good quality coach at the club.
