Darts v Hemel Hempstead (Sat 31st Aug 3pm)

[Lincoln exile]

Another poor goal conceded, after which what little confidence the team had disappeared. I suppose it was inevitable too that, having released our left back and with no defender on the bench, our "stopgap" left back would be forced off with an injury.

None of our strikers (apart from Norman) seem to have any confidence at present, so it was no great surprise to see another penalty saved. To be honest we did not deserve to be level at half time.

For much of the second half we looked a completely different team and certainly gave their defence something to think about. Flisher didn't do a bad job at left back, especially as he has probably not played there before. Norman Wabo livened things up when he came on, scoring for the third time as a substitute. I still think he should start in place of Darren who missed much of the pre-season programme.

To my surprise the crowd was actually up on the last game, perhaps because people are back from holidays

I still think this squad is good enough. Give Cunnington some support, and he’ll score for fun. Get the Ryno / Wabo wingsters on the top of their game (from the start!) and we’ll destroy teams in this league. I can see it. So can others. Why can’t ‘those’ two? I spent a lot of today’s game watching ‘those’ two and saw absolutely nothing to instil me with confidence that they knew what they were doing. Motionless. Emotionless. I’d even give Tony another shot, before it’s too late to mount a reasonable meaningful recovery. The longer ‘those’ two remain in charge, the harder it’s going to be to climb the league. But we have the capability.

Game of two halves. Luke W-E left the club?? Why??

[UpTheDarts]

Have to agree with what's already been said.
Awful first half perofrmance summed up by another missed penalty.

Much improved in the 2nd half especially in the last 15 minutes, makes me wonder why we can't do that every week.

I'm still standing by my opinion that the clowns aren't right for the job. Nothing happening on the touchline just standing there with no idea what to do. Not even trying to motivate the players.

I thought it was a decent second half performance all round, with Hemel just trying to defend the lead they had. In particular i thought RV matched up well in the battle against Alex Wall, another good performance from Flisher and Wabo scoring again. We had all the momentum and could easily have snatched it late on, as could they in fairness.

[Gin and vomit]

I don't understand why Wabo isn't starting. The only forward player that looks sharp and scoring!

Spent the 2nd half behind the goal ,boy, are some of the natives not happy..
Imho we have some good players but we don't have a team!
I am perplexed by the team selection of our managers.
Sorry but it is gonna be a long hard season if these two remain in charge. Good players and nice blokes but as managers I am not convinced

[Home And Away]

Good point today. Didn't miss LB. everyone. One was moaning about. Rumours rumours

Arthur here,
It's only £3.10 a bottle of peroni in the champions bar
£3.80 upstairs. The prices upstairs are a disgrace
