Re: Cheltenham Town v Cambridge United

Standing on the terrace behind Ndululu as he set himself. A goal that wouldn’t be out of place in the Champions League. Alfie’s goal was about tenacity, but equally an excellent finish. The passing around at the back was often due to no midfielder dropping in to pick up the ball. It might be a bit p...

Re: New contract

There have been some appalling things written on Twitter about this chap and his award of a new contract. Everyone is an expert apparently. The mindless hypocrisy of pledging your undying support to a club and then posting really scathing comments about Freestone’s new contract is oxymoronic at best...

Thoughts re: Northampton

Observations: Luke Southwood didn’t have a great deal to do, but was very vocal and confident. He was happy with the ball at his feet. He is obviously a keeper who is more than capable at League 1 level. The defence was my area of concern in the first half. Nobody filled me with confidence. Both Rag...

Re: I hope there is no monkey business next Saturday

There is a difference between referees making a conscious decision to favour one team over another and them making some decisions in a game that one set of fans see as wrong.

Leadership is pointless if you can't lead by example. He was great in the Conference, but he's well short in L2. Can't build a team on sentiment. Someone else will step up. Storer is way short. We need someone to control and manipulate play. Being short of pace, skill and intelligence on football pi...

Re: honestly

The passing was dreadful. The midfield was especially poor. Storer looked very poor and Pell's boundless running is pointless without the quality to unlock a defence. His first 'yellow' wasn't correct, but to clearly dive and therefore get sent off is so petulant and mindless. Please don't say he wa...

Re: Red card - I know what happened.

With the greatest of respect, he was sent off because while having his shirt pulled, he swung his arm round at the Crewe player at a fair old rate of knots. Irrelevant what the Crewe chap was doing, you can't react like that and not risk being deemed violent conduct. 10 yards in front of me. Nothing...

Not a lot of quality on display. Zach's been twinkle toes, but that apart we've offered little. Trailist Gus seems fairly assured, but offers nothing we haven't got already. Centre half is anonymous!

Not sure I agree about Vaughan. He did score a well taken goal, but sitting right where he was operating, he was caught out of position on a number of occasions. The opposition was limited. I thought he was there because he had to be and was happy to do his own thing. His demeanour was of someone wh...

Pointless. It'll cost 6 months wages. Any new manager in will inherit and be unable to change the squad with a £30k hole in the buget. We will finish mid table.. Then get rid...FOR FREE.
