Seriously, WTF is going on with our injury record. I'm starting to think we are injuring our own players to justify the state of the art medical facilities we've installed. I've never known such a prolonged run of injuries. We should have enough to stay up this year, but six games in hand is...

From my calculations we only have three free midweeks left, and one of those looks like it is being kept in case we get through to the next round of the Trophy and need a replay. So if we do get through to the next round, we have two games to fit in still and only two midweeks left. Get...

Our game really should be one of the televised games, and if it is, then it's a good draw. Decent home crowd and TV money in the bank.

Hate to say it but Salford should win this league if they play like tonight every week. We gifted them the second, but no complaints. Good to see our stewards are still the idiots they've always been.

Depends on what you want from a cup run. Personally I want to get to the third round and get a plum away tie - the sort of tie that can change a clubs financial fortunes and puts a buzz into the club again. It's nothing against Bristol Rovers (I found the running gag about their ginormous...

Whilst better than Bristol away, still a crap draw for us. Unlikely to be a televised game and we'll be favourites to lose the tie.

I have a bit of a soft spot for Ebbsfleet because of the MyFootballClub episode. I remember arguing with some American guy that had signed up about how this wasn't a play thing to be tossed aside after a short period of time but apparently he was there for the long haul. Spent hours arguing...

Minister for Food? About time too. Any country that relies on food banks should have one. A few years overdue.

He's spot on. :whistle:

I'd be finding this incredibly funny except every bad result increases the chances of that twat ending up back with us.

First game I've seen for a few weeks and not great all told. Havant looked a poor side, but a lack of quality in the final third for us, combined with a couple of quality finishes from one of their players meant that we only came away with a point. The only real plus last night is the...

I've given it 10 games to see if our early season results were a product of needing a bedding in period. Whilst results have certainly picked up, we still don't give off the vibe of a team capable of going all the way and winning it. Injuries have certainly not helped, but we look a functional...

I'm not quite prepared to write us off after 2 games. Yesterday wasn't great, especially the first half, although I thought we improved greatly in the second. If we'd huffed and puffed and offered little else I would be concerned, but first half we just didn't turn up. Not sure why, although...

Need to follow up the draw on Saturday with a win tonight. Of the other matches, Chesterfield look a cracking price at 5/4 against Aldershot.

Don't recall your Twitter account announcing a bank holiday in the east end to mark the victory though.

Fuck me, never known a team to have their cup final in August.

Martin Allen bullshit roadshow is how. Apparently he played 26 games in our title winning season . He didnt.

Presume this was the guy in goal on Monday? Made some good saves if so. I'm encouraged by this as Still talked about bringing in a more experienced goalkeeper as number two at the Q&A night a few weeks back, so clearly this guy must have impressed him to change his mind.

I'm not comparing footballing abilities, just pointing out that if you are going to have a player in your ranks so you can employ a very obvious tactic, it probably makes sense to work on that tactic, rather than just leave it down to chance. I was being generous on Muggleton's playing...

Well at least they've not paid a fee for him like Eastleigh did. If it weren't for his long throw he wouldn't be playing above step 10 in the pyramid. Even with his long throw, apart from a team managed by Allen, he's fallen down the leagues. That said, if there was a real plan behind using...
