I missed most of the game. I-follow wouldn't connect for the first ten minutes. Then at half-time someone called and kept me there until full-time. So, what I saw was a good game that was generally played at pace. However, Lincoln were more efficient - read more ...

I’ve thought Wintle could do with a break, but then we did have a fortnight off recently when our Saturday match was postponed.... Problem is who will fill his role. Murphy looks the obvious choice, but then he looks tired from half time onwar - read more ...

So despite all our fears we got the point. However, although I might have been content with a point before the game, I feel aggrieved now. Two sitters missed again. Charlie was the weak link in the team. Missing his sitter by be - read more ...

Whilst it was, eventually, a decent 3 points against an ultimately disappointing Accrington, it took us a good 20 minutes to get going. Until then Daniels looked anything but a FB and we just couldn’t get hold of the ball. Gradually we took ove - read more ...

The problem is that most of that possession is between the back 4. I'm all for possession football but it needs to happen all over the pitch and at varied pace. We are also now predictable down that left wing. All of Pixie's run - read more ...

Agreed, gazan. There have been a couple of matches this season where the opposition have sought to referee the match instead of the man in black, or green or whatever. Seems to me the longer the match goes on the more fed up the official gets with th - read more ...
