Match day thread 22/08

[CTFCfan99]

It must have been pretty dismal weather for you last season

Indeed tbf, I barely made it to any games last season so I can't comment on most of them

 

[Sparrow]

Just met ShrewdBlue ahead of Woking vs Chester. He's alright once you get used to the biting and dribbling.

 

[The_Boss]

We beat them at SB that season (2-1 I think) and got dicked 4-0 at Maine Road.

Feeling the retrospective love for the class of 98/99!

Shaun Goater's knee won it for City at the Moss in the 86th minute, before we succumbed 2-0 at Maine Road. Could easily have been a couple up before they scored but one hell of a fun season that was, despite it resulting in our first ever relegation.

 

[Davidimp]

Hearn has a virus, probably the same one Wood had, o well means he'll be fresh for the derby next week.

 

[Clarkey_GTFC]

Number of changes for us;

McKeown
Nsiala - Pearson - Gowling - Robertson
Mackreth - Disley - Robinson - Monkhouse
Bogle - Arnold

East, Clay, Marshall, Pittman, Amond

 

[Davidimp]

Disley getting warmed up for his annual goal at SB Clarkey?

 

[Clarkey_GTFC]

No guarantee he'll even play at this rate, but if it's as good a derby as last year then we're in for a treat nonetheless.

 

[Davidimp]

We'll lose by the odd goal in 5 today I think.

 

[TRFC_Fan]

No goals in any games after 15 minutes, good job the highlight show doesn't start until next week

 

[Ollie.TUFC]

1-0 Torquay, I don't understand football sometimes.

 

[Clarkey_GTFC]

We've been absolute utter shite again.

 

[Ollie.TUFC]

2-0 to us, still think we'll bottle this.

 

[Davidimp]

We concede from a free kick we didn't clear that was a silly free kick given by Jon Nolan who can't tackle, what a surprise!

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

Forest Green in scoring set piece shocker. Something like three corners and two free kicks scored in their five games. And a penalty.

 

[Clarkey_GTFC]

Blatant handball in the box not given. Hurst already in the changing room drafting his complaint.

Seriously we are pathetic.

 

[Davidimp]

2 down another poor attempt at defending from us, our local hack says we've been poor today, back to normal.....

 

[GTFC1979]

Half time 2 0 Torquay, this is the most inept lifeless 45 mins I can remember for a long time.
Torquay first to every ball, chucking balls in our box non stop and we just can't defend them, I expect more goals 2nd half, probably all in our net.
Everyone around me blaming the ref and whilst I am at the other end from the hand ball appeal so couldn't tell, you cannot make excuses and blame the ref for our pathetic first half, utter fucking dogshit.
I have a song from D Ream in my head........

 

[Davidimp]

Our two giant centre backs are hopeless in the air it would appear.

 

[yellow]

Still fully expecting Grimsby to win.

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

Boreham Wood winning at Tranmere. Welcome to non league.

 

[Limerick Mariner]

#Operationmidtable...!?

 

[yellow]

Grimsby get one.

HERE WE GO.

 

[Luke Imp]

Farman saved *another* penalty.

Our two CB's have had a mare today by all accounts.

 

[EnglishRed]

Still fully expecting Grimsby to win.

It doesn't matter. They won the league back in July.

 

[Luke Imp]

Our subs have basically said, 'well done, FGR. Moving on...'.

 

[Davidimp]

1-2

 

[Davidimp]

Our subs have basically said, 'well done, FGR. Moving on...'.

Or maybe not Luke

 

[GTFC1979]

15 to go and the compkete 2nd half turnaround means it will now be a travesty if we end up with nothing! Football eh!!

 

[yellow]

Not majorly impressed with how we only seem capable of actually playing for 45 minutes so far….

We will bottle this.

 

[Ollie.TUFC]

2-0 to us, still think we'll bottle this.

Called it.
