Re: So then what side are you on?

Without taking this right off topic, and I can't remember who put it, but the comment about Bournemouth and Eddie Howe is a little naive. For those who believe the odd headline that the Cherries are running on a shoestring, they should do a little reading on who owns the Club and how it is funded et...

Re: Doh!! For Daggers!!

All I am trying to say is, some people have it in for certain loan players as soon as they arrive. Whether they should be bought in or how they are used is not their call, that is the Managers call. I agree with Mike that we have had a few good ones (Paul Mayo was another who I thought did ok) but a...

Re: Doh!! For Daggers!!

Totally agree. I don't think he did to bad. Again, I was not best pleased he started as thought it moved away from what had worked against Carlisle, but that is the Manager's call, not his. I thought for first 20 minutes he did ok, then two things happened. He got isolated as people didn't get near ...

Re: Tranmere

Lets be honest, they were not a good side. The lad Power who scored the goal (which was a great strike) was their only decent player. They will finish 16th - 18th I would have thought. If I come away and think we have lost to a good side but done all we can I am happy. I remember the 2003 game again...

Re: Tranmere

Well, what can be said about that!! I have to say I was, and probably still am, a fence sitter on the whole manager situation (as I am not convinced a change would make things much better), BUT Saturday was a horror show and if the Club gave Wayne the boot today I would not argue. That was as un-enj...

Re: AwayDays

You surprise me Mark in all honesty. Proper ground I think. Yes, the facilities are dire, but if I am going out for dinner or to be treated well I go to a restaurant, not to League Two football. One of the only grounds we play at which still has an atmosphere. We always have a good following and it ...

Re: Burnett Poll In or Out

It's a shame a win like that is being overshadowed with all this. Lets hope everyone has got it out of their system now, on both "sides", and we can move forward. Sussex, I agree with most of what you say and the list of unavailabilities is a fair point, but Doey has been left out several ...

Re: Daggers vs Carlisle Match Thread

I thought for the first 60 minutes we played really really well. We played football, but we played it with tempo and purpose, that was the difference for me. I thought Yusuff and Cureton were superb for that first hour. After the pen miss I think a bit of mental doubt crept in which is to be expecte...

Re: Burnett Poll In or Out

Well, I think many on here will disagree. Should the board, led essentially by Steve look at the current playing and managerial position with a little more urgency?? Some will argue yes. Should Steve have shouted at D4E in the bar the other week?? Most will agree no. However, to say he is no more th...

Re: Burnett Poll In or Out

It's hard to know where people are being sarcy or ironic at moment, or just a bit short-sighted. Thompson out appears to have come up a few times in recent weeks mainly based on him being behind the times and not having business experience or knowledge etc etc. And yet now someone is saying bring ba...

Re: Southport replay match thread

Without sounding to downbeat, and I personally would still be going if we were in the Conference, it would be very very different from our previous spells for a number of reasons. Firstly, the Conference has changed over the last 10 years, for 8 of which we have been in the FL. There are number of b...

Re: Southport replay match thread

Thats the long and short of it Lion. Last night really really mattered. I don't know the exact numbers, but without an indivdual "backer" (which brings its own issues in my book) we are looking in a bad way financially. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to work out that gates of 2,00...

Re: So, If It Happens

I would have Garry back if it was felt right for/by him and also the Board felt it was right for the Club. Would others?? I know they say never go back, but as someone said, good job we didn't stick to that with Stilly.

Thought that was you in the photo on the Recorder report Steveooo!!! Just out of curiosity, who was the Board member on the pitch. Could it have been Dave the Plumber has Arnu will be pleased if it is!!! At least the forum is lively at the moment anyway. In all seriousness, very unsavoury, very un-d...

Re: Saturdays game

Well if Partridge is out we may at least get our best defender back in.

What was the game like in general Sussex?? Were we better side in 1st half as Wayne hints at in interview??

And what exactly happened at the end?? What was said to get Warren so wound up??
