National League fixtures - 08/01/2019

[fifaking]

Two HUGE games in the league tomorrow that are worthy of their own thread.

Bromley v Wrexham
Gateshead v Solihull

Will be my fourth trip to Bromley tomorrow night, and we have yet to win there, although each game has been very entertaining at least.. Little bit of excitement entering this after two drab performances with the fact we have signed two forwards. Although knowing us we won't have any 'international' clearance. Typical that Bromley are flying (as per Dover) as we play them. I think a point will be decent enough to keep us plodding along.

Hopefully a Gateshead win in the other game to get a bit of a gap forming again between Top 3 and the rest (assuming we get something out of Bromley..)

 

[Tin Roofs & Stone Steps]

Always look forward to the fixture vs Wrexham at ours. We’ve been spoilt in match quality and point accumulation...so far!!
Looks like Okoye is fine and will start which is the best news! He’s really made a difference at the back in recent weeks.

 

[Red-Hybrid]

I would guess that the new signings will start tonight. Bevon looked worn out and he can't last 90 minutes or score anyway. Perhaps even a change to the formation.

YEAHHH LET'S BE HAVIN YAAA.

Said nobody before this fixture.

A rare occasion where I've not travelled to a game. We've never won a league game on plastic and never won at Bromley. If we win tonight, we will win the league.

 

[EnglishRed]

Like next goal wins?

 

[Master D]

We'll get plastic-pitched out of it tonight. Disgusting.

 

[chief]

New signing Oswell starts in place of Beavon while Stockton must settle for a place on the bench in place of Holroyd. Rekeil Pyke is back on the bench, so with Tollitt, Pyke and Stockton on the bench we should have some decent firepower going into the later stages if need be.

Personally would have dropped Rutherford for Tollitt. It seems daft having our most talented winger sat on the bench.

 

[EnglishRed]

And so it begins

CRISIS

 

[Wrexdragon]

Don't think I've ever known Wrexham win a game in hand.

 

[chief]

Sign a winger who can be the best in the league on his day and put him on the bench. Smart.

We always come from behind to win anyway......

 

[chief]

Sounds like we're getting battered.

 

[Luke Imp]

If he's got a dodgy knee (ACL?) then the last thing he wants to be on is a plastic pitch.

 

[chief]

If he's got a dodgy knee (ACL?) then the last thing he wants to be on is a plastic pitch.

We haven't started him in the last few games so it's not that...

I think he's only here for 1 league game after today, risk him.

 

[chief]

If we fuck this I might not bother next season.

Unless we get relegated, fancy Stockport and Chester away again.

 

[fifaking]

Terrible performance again. Didn't think it could get worse than Dover

 

[Master D]

Make way for 10th place. Bliss.

 

[Red-Hybrid]

 

[chief]

Stockton and Tollitt coming on. SUPER WHITE ARMY!!!

 

[chief]

If anyone cares, we're still shite.

 

[chief]

Shite.

 

[fifaking]

Terrible performance again. Didn't think it could get worse than Dover

Same again for second half. We created nothing. Our free fall after losing a manager looks like it may well happen for a second successive season, based on the last 3 games.

 

[chief]

Can't believe we've got Barrow on a 2.5 year deal. We're clueless under him.

 

[fifaking]

Oh, nice to see that weird Bromley yoof are still there as well

 

[Master D]

So long as we get to 10th as soon as possible I'll be happy.

 

[The Terminator]

I tell you what would be funny/not funny...............if Solihull pip Salford to the title

Also I think Gateshead season is over, under a transfer embargo and have lost key players back to Sunderland.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Could be worse Wrexham, you could be us and not have finished in the top half of any league for 11 years.

Mate, we're gonna finish below you.

 

[Red-Hybrid]

Perhaps we will joined by our brothers in Stockport next year.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Perhaps we will joined by our brothers in Stockport next year.

Could be an enlarged Brotherhood next year with us four plus potentially Stockport, Notts County and another proper club who comes down. See, it's worth staying down just for THAT.

 

[Back in the DHSS]

Bloody hell Wrexham! WTF you playing at. Don’t you dare let Solihull and Salford into the football league.
