2016/17 National League North

[Blue Lion]

Stockport v Fylde is FUCK OFF.....it's been absolutely pissing down in Stockport for over an hour, presume waterlogged / unsafe pitch

Yep, same here too. Absolutely torrential.

 

[BigDaveCUFC]

Not seen anything like it in manc this last hour.

Fc game for Curzon got moved, but no chance would have gone ahead anyway

 

[appletablepenny]

We have Danny Hattersley and Craig Hobson playing centre back tonight. Any forward with any pace or strength should fill his boots...

 

[appletablepenny]

......and we're 1-0 down

 

[appletablepenny]

.....down to 10 men.....penalty......saved!

 

[GodsGift]

Dan Bradley has been left out of Alfreton's squad tonight as we've put in a bid for him.

You're welcome Boston.

 

[appletablepenny]

1-1

 

[DarkSithLord]

HT - Boston 0-1 Alfreton.

Sounds like we have been the better side. Craig Westcarr with the strike,

Oh Alty...oh Alty! 4-1 down at Nuneaton?!

Have it on good authority that he has been left out due to illness.And plans to go nowhere.

Hey, can't fault his logic. Staying at Alfreton is the definition of going nowhere!

I know, it's awful, on our way to doing a Hyde here

Boston 3-2 Alfreton
Absolute sickner for us apparently. Robbed by a utter joke of a decision by a linesman who flagged for a penalty in the 90th minute before a good header from Smith won it for Boston in the 93rd. Daylight Robbery.

12 visits to Boston and still to taste victory. Absolute graveyard for us.

 

[Harrier94]

We've been threatening a rout for ages and tonight it came. 6-0 with 6 different goal scorers and a Tamworth team who offered nothing. Now let's smash them in the cup.

Impressive how you knew it was an utter joke of a decision by the linesmen despite not being there

 

[Prodigal]

Beat Salford 2-1 after going a goal done in the first half, also missed another penalty. One of Salfords manager clowns was sent off, what a total loon that man is. Came out all guns blazing in second half and scored twice, then missed another sitter, still 3 terrific points.

 

[KHFC_Shaun]

Elton Ngtwalala, wow - his pass for the third goal was out of this world, and no one could get near him.

Fabulous defence and midfield. Still need a goalscorer despite 6 different goalscorers today, but thoroughly enjoying our early days in this division so far.
Tyrell Waite is growing on me, his work-rate defensively is just as good as his intent moving forward. Hopefully he can work on his end product and he'll be a very dangerous winger at this level.

Total domination tonight, topped the Curzon performance.

 

[Luke Imp]

Seems to be confusion over Alex Simmons on the Halifax forum.

It's Alex Simmons, not Alex Simmonds. He's a striker, not a defender. He's not like Burrow, either. Different build, different height, different 'footed', different type of striker. One of their similarities is that they both have a head but on a football level, completely different.

Who ever Gavlar and Gavlar's uncle is, they're both talking shite.

 

[AnimoEtFide]

Managed to avoid losing to Fylde tonight. Pretty happy with that.

I'd still pick Austin over Waite. Yes Waite offer more defensively but going forward I don't think he offers enough, his decision making is also poor. Whereas Austin whenever I've seen him he's terrified defenders.

 

[Harrier94]

A lot of rumours going around Lee Hughes could be on his way back here for his third spell. Missed Worcester's game with a "tight Hamstring".

Waite all day for me. When I saw Austin come on, on Saturday he was blowing out his arse after 10 minutes, and was at an ambling pace when tracking back. Waite is work in progress technically, but he supports Zaine/Ty a lot defensively. Don't think Austin can be trusted to be given the free role just yet, but I agree that he does look more dangerous going forward.

Good lord, seriously?

 

[Clem Fandango]

Solid 3-0 win over Telford, the most pleasing aspect being we weren't actually that good today! Telford had 2 or 3 massive chances which they spurned. Joe Hanks scored two absolute beauties.

Absolute dog shit crowd though with just over 300 there. Too many lazy fucks who think going to Whaddon is like travelling to Carlisle.

 

[appletablepenny]

Good lord, seriously?

Yes, seriously. I wasn't there, so can't comment on how the experiment went, but the scoreline suggests not very well.

 

[SomeMightShay]

We have played crap on our last two trips to Gainsborough. We managed to buck that trend for 45 mins last night. Fecking woeful second half the shite football on offer managed to make Adam Quinn look like Fabio Cannavaro. Kiel O'Brien is a chuffing liability. First Southport send us Danny Hattersley and now this useless lump, they are making mugs of us.

Opposition fans warned us that watching Heath's football wouldn't be pretty but effective. Pre-season seemed to quash those fears. We have now lost the effectiveness. One of the trinity fans shouted out last night "it's just like watching Ferriby". Well looking at the league table i would have to strongly disagree. We are only 3 points off the play-offs but our defence is leakier than a split condom and our go to response when behind is go long to Denton. Uttterly depressing stuff last night especially when we showed that we can cause teams problems when we put it on the floor.

 

[SomeMightShay]

Yes, seriously. I wasn't there, so can't comment on how the experiment went, but the scoreline suggests not very well.

We'll do a 2-4-1 swap. You can have Hone and O'Brien and we'll take The Hat.

 

[AnimoEtFide]

Given how your season's gone so far, they actually haven't done much worse than your usual centre-halves.

Yes, true enough, and it was a "needs must" decision to play them there. I still can't believe just how quickly the season has unravelled though.

Haha. Reliably informed by a unbiased friend.

Unfortunately due to unforseen circumstances I wont be able to attend any more matches this month. Gutted too as I love the FA Cup. Having said that however looking at the draw (Home to Flyde) it looks disappointedly like one game and out this year.

could end being a costly defeat last night. Kiddy at home next in the league looks tough...

 

[DarkSithLord]

AFC Telford fans - Remember much about sam Ottley who you had on loan for a handful of games in 2014/15? Is he any good? We have signed him from Barnsley on loan.
