  1. Technically your right, because we’re not on the pitch. But I can can think of umpteen tight games, where the crowd have had a bid impact, both negative and positive on the result.
  2. You still think we’ll struggle? I think/hope we’ll have just enough, but as you say it will be tight. I don’t think 50 will be enough either. I think it’s gonna be more 53/54 this year. It’s very competitive for that last relegation place.
  3. Love reading the old stories, especially about the players we had before my time. I’d love to improve our player turnover. Just one season where we use the same 15/16 players. We’re just a shop window for most players, instead of somewhere they feel can do something. Hope we can change that.
  4. This is mainly to pick the Brains of our older members. We currently play in the third division, on a bog. We’re skint, and heady days seem a long way away. In the good old days, (I’m talking in the 60s/70s, earlier if your old enough! ?) Did you have more hope? Enjoy your football more? Did the standard seem better? Or is it much of a muchness with now?
  5. Plus, i’d wager there asking price would go up if AL sought to buy it off them. I dread to think what they’d want if ever we got to the premier league. . ?
  6. Agreed. When we were really in the shit, shez had us much closer to getting out of it than Bury are now. Their resurrection needed to start under lucketti. He still had enough games then. Ten points off safety with 14 games left, they need at least 8/9 wins out of that. . It ain’t happening.
  7. Mmmm. A bit harsh on Gerrard, I thinks he’s our only one. I get your point though, plenty of tidy footballers, but not many leaders. Still, we have just taken 7 from 9. .
  8. Our defence is the biggest concern. Going forward I think we’ll always create enough, and certainly got the strikers now to put them away. Bit perturbed you dont fancy us though, your calming words are what get me through the dark winter months of panic.
  9. Defintley. But then, I’d like to hope that’s not asking a lot. . . £800k- gulp. Another re-seed it is then.
  10. The pitch is an interesting one. It seems to get relaid every summer. Certainly the last 2/3 anyway. But the way it cuts up at the same point every year, I can only presume we’ve just been putting a top layer on it so to speak. I wonder how much a complete overhaul would be, and considering the local climate, would it be anymore guaranteed to not cut up? If the club had to chose, would you want 250k on a new pitch (picking a figure) or spent on the squad?
  11. Every time the pitch turns to shit, we start winning. . ? Massive 3 points tonight!
  12. Why are you so pissed off? Not having a go, but who cares? If he doesnt give shit- he just goes on the pile with the rest.
  13. Think there’s a fair few like that. There good enough to play, but it’s just a job.
  14. Keep with two up top? It’s a must for me. I think if we play with one up front, and sit in we’re in trouble. Oddly though, when we were doing well early doors RW kept saying he didn’t like two up top but Doyle and Davies form meant he had to. We then went one up front, and started struggling. I hope he he sticks to what wins him games.
  15. Because he doesn’t have a say on certain signings, and was being honest in an interview? This is how it is now. Wether it works is very much up for debate. Should the manager have full automnomy over the squad? Or if he gets a majority of his own signings; but has to accommodate the owners signings as well, should he just get on with it? Good luck to the lad anyway.
  16. I was gonna ask how we played, but I don’t care. Great win. Much needed.
