Lee Sinnott Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Anyway, back to the Bromley game. Sounds like they rested a few players ahead of the playoffs so full credit to David and his charges for extending their unbeaten run against the Bromley B team...

We also had nowt to play for except pride. We missed two one on one’s, hit the bar, and their goalkeeper had an absolute worldy…it was a decent performance to be fair and on another day it could have been 5 v 1!

Bromley only had four players starting yesterday who started against us, so a valid comment… but then to sarcastically add the subsequent comment about ‘Bromley B’ just to have a dig at the manager and the team makes me wonder if this season has just been too much for you? It also misses an opportunity to point out that Bromley have strength in depth which could see them challenging next season perhaps? As another fan @another fan points out, it used to be enjoyable reading your comments - what have you done with the real @Lee Sinnott? I want him back please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree with him and I hope to see the fruits of his labour next season. We are equipped now for top 7 easily, three maybe four quality signings and we'll be well in the mix and hopefully pushing the top of the table, since Christmas we've beaten most of those from 3rd down to mid table and we shouldn't be fearing anyone going in to next season, pre season and adding that quality will be crucial, if Notts go up which I hope they do i would have us as favourites for promotion next season based on a number of factors, we will have the biggest budget, likely the biggest gates and the club is now on a steady footing that should only see us going one way.

Yes I agree. I really hope he gets it right this summer. The 2023 table gets mentioned a lot and while we do feature as ‘best of the rest’ it’s hardly a convincing lead ahead of the others. In fact, if you tweak it slightly to Matchday 23-46 I think we’re 5th? It’s Gateshead who are 3rd. This isn’t to suggest that it’s not good, to be honest it’s remarkable, and I doubt many (including myself) could have envisaged this after the disgraceful performance in Nottingham. That being said, I think everyone wants out of this division next season and we’re in a healthy position to potentially stage an assault on the title (Notts promotion pending*). We need to get the recruitment spot on. *County’s finances look interesting though. Can they afford to stay in this division for much longer?

I have a friend who supports Notts Co and he regularly tells me they’ll be pretty fucked if they don’t go up this season, as financially they’ve kind of gone all in. Not privvy to their finances but i’d say Langstaff would fetch a 1M+ price tag, which would surely help them out, and help them otherwise keep their squad together for at least another season. I do hope they go up though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure they could find players to fit into their system, at BP they passed us to death, if it hadn't been for the brain fart from their keeper we would have lost that game, in fact us getting the draw was daylight robbery.

Our keeper and players have had those by the truck full. Taking advantage of the opposition's mistakes is much better than not doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
