I’m certain Frankie or Peter would’ve got considerably more points from these last few games...

That's one of those things that is easy to say but can never be proved.  You may be right, you may be wrong.  We'll never know.

There is "Funny Little Frog" and "The Gate".

Another day in June, we'll pick eleven for football [pick eleven for football]
We're playing for our lives, the referee gives us fuck-all [the ref was givin' us fuck-all]
I saw you in the corner of my eye on the sidelines,
Your dark mascara bids me to historical deeds...

Double upboat for linking Belle and Sebastian to football!

Adored them from about 1997 until about 2004. Much preferred the shambolic DIY charm of those early recordings. As soon as they got Trevor Horn in to produce a record I didn't feel like band a band for me any more. I'll be forever thankful to them for turning my head from turgid post-Britpop shite to a much more enlightening sound though. 

I agree, the records from those years are the ones I listen to the most.  Shambolic DIY charm sums it up well.  Anyway, back to the football...!

Upboat!

OK, so who is the Belle and Sebastian fan?  One of my favourite bands!

This I'll be the starting 11 from here on in barring injury and certainly makes that bench look weak 

We still have the other two loanees to come in which would strengthen the bench.

You lads are slightly mad...or very loaded!  Good luck to you!

If it's true that Lemsagam paid Corney £3m and the land is 'worth' £6m and two stands need very significant work (at best) it wouldn't be hard to put the overall price, before any playing investment and running costs are even considered at well north of £15m.  

 

Hmmm.

So Lemsagam paid Corney £3m and the land is worth £6m...that's a bit of a leap to get to "well north of £15m".

Baxter and Dearnley start

 

Vera and Sylla drops to the bench.

 

Nepo at left back Hunt on the bench.

 

Interesting.

Sylla was on the bench at the weekend.  Stott has dropped to the bench.

So 2 of the new loanees not even in the squad?

Askey has been appointed Port Vale manager.

Hopefully Stott comes in for Clarke with Iacovitti at left back.

 

Could he play Iacovitti at CB though and keep Nepo at LB?    

 

Maouche back in. Can O'Grady manage another start again so soon? I don't think so - Vera to start.

 

Iversen

 

Hamer

Edmundson

Stott

Iacovitti

 

Branger

Sylla

Missillou

Maouche

Nepo

 

Vera 

 

 

Iacovitti can't play tomorrow according to the official site.

Its been going on all season AL  picking the team why do you think Rhodes and Bunn left

Because they were sacked?

Just now, rudemedic said:

We get half if we both lose. 

 

Not sure how they would class replays. Would like to think if Newport lose and we draw we get the lot, but we may not. 

It is to do with the team progressing the furthest, so I would imagine they would look at it after any replays.

Would only play 5 games a season these days due to suspensions

Very true!

Left back coming in from Forest...

Stuart Pearce?

Do we know why Hunt isn't allowed to start?

Maybe AL wants to sell him and doesn't want to risk him getting injured?

To rollover and have your belly tickled or to not compete.

No. I was just saying that we don't have too many options in terms of personnel at the moment.  Our squad is thin and we have a number of injuries, suspensions (Maouche), and unavailable for whatever reason (Duffus).  I'm not advocating going there to roll over, I'm just saying that we don't have many options with regards to personnel.

Going to Donny for a belly tickle then?

I have no idea what that means!

7 minutes ago, yarddog73 said:

Macclesfield battered us Saturday and let's be honest the ref did us a favour on more than one occasion, cannot go to Donny with them same personal expecting any sort of result.

Unfortunately we don't have much in the way of alternative personnel.  At the moment anyway.

You'll find a stream online. I found one for the Maidstone game which was watchable.

For the Fulham match I found a very good quality stream on line with no audio, but then found the commentary on Radio 5 Live.  Had to press pause a few times on one of them to get them synchronised but it worked out well in the end.  The result wasn't bad either!

Scholesy, Scholesy...but slowly, slowly!
