Go on then

In our glory days in the conference - losing to Hayes and yeading (attendance - 316 lol)

Fortunately we've never scored any famous OG's.

Surprised you’ve never mentioned that game before.

Surprisingly loud cheer by the home fans given the attendance. Did all the Stags fans get confused and think they'd scored at the right end?

This is my favourite one at Whaddon Road:

The best bit is the keeper (I want to say Connor Roberts - he only played once for us anyway) desperately not using his hands so leaping like a forlorn salmon to reach it.

Nobody will ever beat Alan Pouton. Who, in making a classic Pouton challenge, scored an OG from 40 yards out.

Cheltenham at home for us tomorrow who we’ve built up a weird rivalry with over the years. As with Yeovil, a test if we’re actually going for it. A win and everyone starts to get excited, anything else and we accept that we’re ‘building’.

No idea which way it’s going.

Darren Way today: ""Well me being me, I've got absolutely no problem as far as motivating players"

Our record since the start of November:
P19 W2 D3 L14

Well clearly you do have a problem you utter moron.

 

[Big Bird]

Convincing argument you've got there Darren.

 

[The_Boss]

I think Darren Way is doing a cracking job and it would be ludicrous to get rid at this stage of the season. Now is the time to stand by your manager and let him finish the job.

 

[BlackHaddock]

3-0 Grimsby win, or 0-1 balls up at home to Chettenham today

Is a weird one. Mainly Danny Wright and Harry Pell though? I don't even think the playoffs in 05/06 were a cause of it. Would love to lay this home record hoodoo to rest today.

Off to Charlton v Blackpool though so won't even be listening. If any Town fan without iFollow can't get commentary where you are and wants to listen PM me and you can have my login for the afternoon.

We need to regain some momentum if only to finish the season with positives to build on for next. However bad some Yeovil fans think their season is, we are very poor at the moment, especially at home. Expect to get something!

Surely you aren't throwing the towel in already?!

There's suddenly no fight left in them, partially handicapped by Copper getting confused now we have a few extra players. Seems to of unsettled the side, We were better off prior to bringing players in January, and also getting Doidge back, which should have been a positive.
You just know when it's fooked.

He seems to be channelling his inner Mourinho and get a pay-off at the minute.

 

[dedwardp]

It's not technically an own goal, but has to be my favourite ever.

Haha! State of that pitch though!!

 

[Greenacres]

Surely you aren't throwing the towel in already?!

Definitely not, but I'm not sure my heart can stand a fourth year in the play-offs in five seasons...my expectations (probably more hopes after narrowly avoiding relegation back to the Conference) this season were for a lower mid-table finish, I'm suffering with an almost permanent nose bleed at the moment.

Yeah, but for slightly less than the 19.6m he got!

Is there an echo in here?

That's the weird thing I reckon, like you would have been happy with consolidation and no flirting with the drop but now we've got up there can't help getting disappointed when we slide back, even though tenth would exceed expectations.

 

[GodsGift]

Off to Charlton v Blackpool though

You could have mentioned it to me...

People on our forum seem confident going into today's game for some reason, not entirely sure why.

Having seen our lineup i have less confidence than before. No Cameron in the squad is obviously huge, Zak Jules gets his start there. No Evans in the squad either. Fitz back in from cold. Somehow Ntambwe and Arthur are starting. Cole is not a winger, and we have Lloyd, Martis and Durrell (ok he's not going to be fit enough to start, great that he's back) on the bench. Would love to be proven wrong but looks like Campbell's got it more wrong than last week.

Colchester will have great fun down the wings; we've conceded 3 in each of our last 3 games and I'd be honestly surprised if it's not at least 3 today.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

Doidge just put us two up and a Way Out banner's appeared.

 

[MrGloverLover]

2-0 down at FGR after half an hour. That's 6 in a row lost and still no sign of a sacking.

I'm surprised the Way Out banner wasn't up from the start. It's quite a convenient name, there are signs saying that everywhere.

You don't sound awful, Cooper's tried to do something about us failing to break teams down giving a start to pacey young Mondal etc and it seems to be working.

I take it all back, Sol Campbell's a football genius.
