  1. Hope that was not down to Tippy's unfortunate knack of being in the wrong place at the wrong time
  2. Agreed. Eardley gets unbelievable abuse for his distribution. Often he is the only one willing to take any responsibility. We move the ball far too slowly and take the safe option for too often. Lomax was shocking tonight and Eards must play at the weekend. If Whits is fit he comes straight back with Lee on the right for me. Otherwise Lidds wide and Lee in the middle. I'm fed up of seeing the same players play every week but in different positions. Surely Eaves/Chalmers/Brooke/Kilcourse could have learnt something sitting on the bench tonight?
  3. Will always be grateful to Matt O'Halloran's goal David Lee will always be remebered. Orfeo Keizerweird was surreal. Ben Turner and David Knight also made an impression
  4. Scott Vernon was 8 months older than Lewi is now on Celebration Sunday. Any ideas on anybody younger scoring a hat trick? The boy is a bit special.
  5. At the other end we would all be screaming for a pen. Gregan is awesome at this level. If only he would put it in the stand more often, instead of show boating. Most of his yellows come from being a clever arse, getting caught out and pulling them down. Just glad it wasn't a second penno today for his card.
  6. Was impressed with the Dongs, but never felt they would score. Even at 1-0 we weren't hsnging on. Excellent result and battling, even when not at our best. Games like that win promotion.
  7. Great goal, but Matt O'Hallorans goal was far more important. I thought we were never going to win again
  8. Although his five goals a season suggest otherwise If that isn't enough proof his lame efforts against us prove it for me. A massive gamble.
  9. What we have lacked for a couple of years is some depth. Our first 11 has been good, but no back up. The new signings are starting to give us that. This year we have only taken two apprentices as full time pros (Bell and Black). Stephens and Lee make up for that. Young hungry players are the only way forward. One they are cheaper, two we can make a quid on them. Think a couple of more experienced playeras still to follow, with things taking shape nicely. At this rate we may be able to fill the bench and Dux may win a game or two.
  10. Made me laugh watching Le Tiss squirm at the Southampton game on Sunday. That was his pay back for what he put us through that day. How many players still support their team fifteen years on?
  11. Admittedly most as sub? Normally he comes on as the fourth official is indicating added time! He really fukced up not saving us in the last 3 mins at Luton
  12. Not seen all of Wolfy's FOUR starts, but consistently failed seems very harsh. It looks like he will be off at the end of the season, but I wish he had given him more of a chance. More of a goalscorer than Lewis, Smalley or Asdaman
  13. Whoosh? You are happy with our cover down the left hand side?
  14. Wolfie gets 10 mins max to make an impact generally with rank service. Can't really see where he has had a proper chance. Far more likely to get a goal than Smalley
  15. Everybody has an opinion but Lee Croft/ Neil Kilkenny? Is that for their part in the Talbot relegation battle? Greatest ever signing will hopefully turn out to be Micah.
  16. Poor facts? Rocastle had a year left on a two year contract when we allowed him to leave. How could we offer him less money? Didn't hear any booing of Haining. Most wish him well/. Can imagine playing in Scotland working well for him and would not be surprised if he got a better move and a place in international squad
  17. Name?Richard Chesworth Location?Smithy Bridge How Long Supporting the Tics?September 75. First game Hull City at home. It pissed it down but won 1-0. Crowd sung what a load of rubbish and I have been hooked ever since. Drifted away briefly under Sharp and Warnock due to living away Best away match you've been to? A bit of a Jonah on away days. Beating City 2-1 with two headers by little Tommy was special. Losing 5-1 at Bradford in the cup was not. All Time Greatest Player? So many. Groves, Wylde, Ward, Palmer, and Stitch Biggest Rivals (in your eyes)?Sadly the Tramps these days (too long in the Division). Be good to see Leeds again and maybe City next year
