Despite them impressing a few in our fanbase, and I'm not sure why given we were absolutely diabolical in both games against them and that was the bigger issue rather than them playing well, I genuinely think Carlisle are doomed in all honesty. All well and good passing pretty in between both...

Can see a lot of games being off this Saturday with the big freeze expected. Hoping our game with Swindon goes ahead though. I fancy us to beat them given how open they look at the back and we've suddenly found our scoring boots at the same time!

The problem with English football is that this has been coming for 40 odd years. When they stopped sharing gate receipts for league fixtures in the early 80s set the ball rolling. Before then, many clubs potential were sky high. You could support a bog standard lower league club and potentially...

Walsall - A very well organised side with the best midfield in the division (that doesn't get the credit it deserves) as well as a match winner up top in Lowe. Thought our defence handled them very well when we played them but it's clear how they're winning games with ease when you have a back...

I'm pretty sure Woodman turned them down a while ago. And Bromley are in a much stronger position now that I can't see him leaving Bromley for them. Has a better chance of getting promotion if he stays put imo.

Pound for pound, Gillingham are the worst team I've seen us play this season. And their squad is full of mediocrity on overly generous wages it's actually quite funny. Bonner is still piggybacking off Paul Mullin's 30+ goal season and an exceptional result at St James' Park 3 years ago. Not...

Does make me laugh with pretty much half a season to play a side is being anointed as 100% promoted. Seem to remember people doing it with Leeds in 2010 when they won in the Cup against Man Utd and then they spunked a 9 point lead at the top and only went up on the final day. Look at us last...

Heard back in October Conway to us was a strong possibility. Only stumbling block was Bolton wanted an incredibly high sell on. Also heard we're sending Breckin back and looking to sign two young lads from Stoke on loan. If Conway is signed that'll also free up an extra loan slot too which we...

Darcy was incredibly close to joining us last January on Deadline Day but our admin cocked up and we missed the deadline by minutes...

Todays loss was richly deserved and all on the manager. We were good first half and poor second half but you don't start tinkering and trying to sit back with over half an hour to go. I get Powell was never playing a full 90 so was always coming off but why the unnecessary tinkering? Also why...

Good judge of talent with his view of Kashket. One of the worst forwards I've ever seen. His only goal for us was a fluke which sums his time here up very well.

I know we're built on a good defence and unbeaten in 12 but feel like a positive spin is needed on the "too many draws" angle. 3 of those came against the Top 3 although we led in 2 of those games. 1 came in horrific and abnormal conditions vs Bradford. 1 came against a side who haven't...

We had Steve Holland as manager who was absolutely useless. Next minute he's the assistant manager at Chelsea and winning the Champions League before getting the England No. 2 job under Southgate!

Reminds me of the time when our former manager and Leyton Orient failure Steve Davis went from 21st in the National League and sacked to the Premier League in a few years as caretaker boss of Wolves! That really was failing upwards!

I'm sure under Artell in the relegation season we played at least 18 different players at wing back which was hilarious. It could even be more than that given how big our squad was. But yeah he was never one for Davis like tactics of going 1-0 up and sitting behind the ball. If anything, a key...

Don't think that'll happen this season. What's always bailed them out is that teams being promoted from L2, one or two of them are often weak as piss and end up going down. But with the calibre of promoted sides this time, even that escape route for them looks blurry. Them and Shrewsbury are as...

And he could be moving up the ladder even more later given there's at least another 1 or 2 that are surely at risk of being sacked imminently as well!

Burton's long search for a manager continues.

Another one officially turns Burton down.

As anticipated. If the Rochdale and Derry City managers are turning Burton down, then Bell certainly isn't leaving a club in a better position than those two for Burton either. Serious issues going on at Burton if they still haven't appointed a manager yet.
