Not sure who your last post was aimed at but I was looking back to pre-season comments and just loved this one from you
Roger, it can't get as bad as the Biddle reign. But at least we had a laugh back then.

Those were the days eh were you behind the stand on that memorable day Biddle Out Biddle Out Biddle Out

Well done Adam and I think most if not all “like” the managers, want them to do well and know they’re hurting too. The next to games could be a platform for a good run, let’s hooe so.

Very much so Trev, was behind the stand that night. Some of Biddle's players were 'laugh a minute'. As was the team performances, you could only take so much.

That rolled off the tongue. And before that 'Boyle out'. Everyone behind the stand to vent their spleen, have a good old sing song and provide the directors with the prompt they needed to end the suffering.
I think Boyle's record was 6 draws and 7 defeats. No time for a vote of confidence. It was goodbye the night we lost to Bridgend who were also without a win.

Right back/holding midfielder. On loan to Harlow March 2019 to end-season. I''m not sure where AF/JC will play him - stand-in for Wynter (a LEFT back) or as holding midfielder, to strengthen the team there? If it's only a month's loan I guess it's In place of Wynter.

Hopefully it will be the start of better things to come tomorrow, ever the optimist I will say yes. Some warm sunny weather and 6 points, the perfect Bank Holiday.

I reckon the back four could be … Howard, Vint, Hill and Warner-Eley and whilst I'm not as optimistic as Llamaman, I do think that come Monday night we might just have enough points to make a triangle.

I do find it a little strange that a player who has sat on the first five games is suddenly thrown straight back in, to me this just smacks of desperation. Ronnie has had a raw deal and deserves his opportunity but I hope that he hits the ground running or he will be put back on the bench like one of our other players! I just get the feeling that one of our managers doesn't like him, again, like one of our other players. Now, the big question is "who does he replace". I would be surprised to see our captain dropped but at the same time I don't think that Josh has done too much wrong, we will just have to wait and see!
I would like to see us lineup with the following and hopefully Luke Allen is available, he could make a huge difference. COYD
Smith
Howard Vint Hill Warner-Eley
Hayes Allen Noble Wanadio
Wabo Cunnington
