Re: News from around the National League South
Torquay's problem is theirs and doesn't affect our striving. Unless they get kicked out of the NLS only then will it give us a hand. Maybe.
Thursday for me is gym day. Us old fellas have to do something to keep the joints and muscle up. But there are two chaps in the group who I chat with every week. One is a Ramsgate supporter, he's really looking forward to next season should they get promoted.. It will be interesting and is hoping that Margate stay up?? He just wants the chance to turn them over? Having Dartford and Dover in the Isthmian Premier is by and by for him. The other guy is a Chats supporter and hoping to leave us all to get on with it.
I'm hoping to stay up. But... I keep quiet.
We like to have a laugh together but not at my expense.

Re: News from around the National League South
It was this time last season that Torquay imploded and got sucked into the relegation Maelstrom. They went down last time - this time they have 9 games left BUT only 3 at home - perhaps they'll nose dive again and be a target for us to overtake
Re: News from around the National League South
Taunton game v WSM is actually ON tonight!!
If they win they’ll be 5 x points clear of us with 3 games in hand still??

Yes the game at Taunton is ON but as soon as that was announced it has started raining again down here - though lighter rain than forecast.

Re: News from around the National League South
Game at Taunton now OFF due to 2 hours of incessant heavy rain. Rumours now surfacing suggesting Taunton may soon be going into liquidation -heard it from one of my suppliers, who supply the football club as well, but not from my contacts at the club

Re: News from around the National League South
Geez, it's hard to know exactly how to feel about that, excited or guilty. Hopefully they'll just go into administration, lose 10 points and then bounce back next season.Taunton Dart wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 6:12 pm Game at Taunton now OFF due to 2 hours of incessant heavy rain.

Re: News from around the National League South
Never feel good about any club going belly up. Also feel for the players and a good manager there.
If it helps our cause we will still have to get some points on the board.
But what an awful situation down at Taunton.
I remember standing up at Park View not knowing what was going to happen next with DFC and then getting the final nail in our coffin.

Re: News from around the National League South
Rod Stringer -Welling NOT my favourite guy but he has done a great job at Welling with new recruits , he has just brought in David Amoo from Ebbsfleet a player with loads of League experience and secured the loan period until end of season for two loanees Adigun & Kennedy[ both in league team of the week] from Charlton and Colchester Utd
I am sure Ade is working hard to very quickly bring in class players [ Ronnie the new centre back proof of this ] to give us hope but the 6 Stringer has brought in has given Welling a very good chance of staying in the NLS , time to do the same Ade , just get the Board to spend a few Quid to back you !!!!!
Did I ever think that we would be hoping the teams go bust , docked points , lose cause they are knackered playing too many games in a few days or hiring a " Plonker " of a Manager[?} for us to avoid relegation !!!

Re: News from around the National League South
Dowse continues to work his magic with another loss I wonder who’s to blame today.
Re: News from around the National League South
Bookies offering very short odds on both teams to lose next week.

Re: News from around the National League South
That makes it 0-0 then
Re: News from around the National League South
Stick it in an accumulator with us to be relegated but reprieved again and watch the internet explode!

Re: News from around the National League South
I know that this is not NLS but it is linked in a way.
Bolitho Park, Plymouth Parkways' ground has not been played on since 30th January, and that was an isolated fixture as DFC fans know only too well. The problems with the pitch were the reason Truro are now playing at Taunton (well, more likely Gloucester City).
Plymouth Parkway still have 16 games to play by the end of April. Indeed last week they played two home games in three days - at Frome Town in Somerset! This Thursday they will be playing at 'home' to Winchester City at.......Home Park, Plymouth. Really great news that Plymouth Argyle, their local Championship side, have opened the doors to welcome their local non-league side in their hour of need.
