Re: Brinkley (A) err Bromley(A)

Here is the US I follow the university I attended athletics pretty closely. The stadium for gridiron football is field turf so there are plastic blades of grass with a LOT of rubber bits. From an environmental standpoint all of that can not be great. It does save on water and upkeep with less labor...

Re: Brinkley (A) err Bromley(A)

The tech has obviously moved on. I remember the awful ones from the 80s at Luton and QPR and they'd leave burn marks on your legs. You can't have them in the football league hence Sutton had to replace theirs with a grass one when they got promoted. I know their artificial pitch was routinely hired...

I've always parked in nearby streets, never a problem on Saturday or a weekday.

Re: Boreham Wood..

Was delayed after work (okay, was in the pub and prob should have stayed there) and only saw second half which was truly dire. We looked like the only team interested in winning but didn't look like doing so against a BW team who didn't look like they were bothered which I found very surprising give...

Re: Joey Jones

I thought there was a player in there somewhere but obviously the manager ran out of patience looking for it and I think he's right. Problem was he thought he wa better than he was at times strolling about like Zindane only to delay too long on a pass and give the ball away for a chance/goal. Can re...

Re: Grimsby Town (A)

Doesn’t help that one of our 3 centre halves is in the side because of his ability at taking set pieces rather than his actual defending. Don’t get me wrong, he has a wand of a delivery in the opponent’s box, but I’m of the belief that defenders should be able to defend first and foremost and IMO t...

Re: Notts County (H)

Thought County completely bossed the first half once they'd recovered from going one down and they were on top when they scored the winner. I don't think the defence were to blame, we lost the game in midfield. Arter was controlling the play until he departed. Seemed like we only started playing aga...

Re: Southend (A)

Best performance I can remember for a long time. On the front foot early doors and could have been of sight. Weathered the storm at the beginning of the second half and killed the game off with the third. Really pleased for the players who looked delighted and deservedly milked the plaudits at the e...

Re: York City (H) Trophy

It's BS to say we sat back second half; they had their moments for sure but we looked like the team much more likely to score. However, I absolutely agree that overall we failed to make the most of promising opportunities rather than clear cut chances. It's so frustrating obviously, and we need to t...

Re: York City (H) Trophy

On the way home. That one stings. Not sure how we didn't win as York were pretty shite but we failed to kill them off. Didn't see pen clearly but soft apparently. Sense of foreboding in the shootout (like watching England) but we even had the chance to win that and missed. 🤦‍♂️ We were in the Famil...

Re: Maidenhead..

Played well tonight, credit where it's due and okay it might be 'too late' but that's not to say you down tools and don't bother. Maidenhead came into the game on form and scoring goals and they did not create a SINGLE chance.
