Re: European Finals.
They've certainly played the Hitler's Generals card early. There's no point in explaining that the "American model for sport (NFL/NBA)" they want to follow has come from somewhere other than Americans. It's come from some Americans who've convinced some doddery old men they can save the world. I'm r...

Re: Be Wise and Ern it: Morecambe (A) Sat 24/4/21 @ 3pm
Hahaha I guess that’s how we used to feel. If it’s any consolation shrimps I only know our players from watching them all season! So let me educate you, young Billy Big Bollox. 40 odd appearances, 5 goals, 8 assists. Impressive tally. But didn't play at weekend (think his injury was game previous)....

Re: Be Wise and Ern it: Morecambe (A) Sat 24/4/21 @ 3pm
I suspect that shithouse Derek Adams is already lining up the drills for leaving a knee or an elbow in on Gilks at set pieces. Percentage wise it would be worth them having a red card if it meant an outfield player yin net for us. Jensen on the bench is a must. Given how well protected goalkeepers ...

Re: Be Wise and Ern it: Morecambe (A) Sat 24/4/21 @ 3pm
We must put a keeper on the bench on Saturday. It is such a pivotal game, imagine if Gilks went down injured in the first few minutes...or was sent off later in the game. You risk throwing the season away for very little gain. We can absolutely sacrifice and outfield player who won't come on anyway...

Re: Be Wise and Ern it: Morecambe (A) Sat 24/4/21 @ 3pm
Just had a quick look at Morecambe's recent xG figures and they're... odd. They had lower xG than Grimsby but won 3-0; they've only had higher xG than oppo in two of the last four games and lost one of them; at Cambridge they had better xG but lost, and home to Cheltenham they had half the xG but w...

I'm veering from wild optimism to total panic and it's only Thursday! We can grind out positive results, of that there's no doubt, but I suspect it won't be enough here. 1-2 defeat.

Hope to God, you're right, Bertie!

If we can't get "up" for this one, it's a poor show.

Re: Be Wise and Ern it: Morecambe (A) Sat 24/4/21 @ 3pm
It would be somewhat curious if people didn't have the notion that not winning might be a possibility. It's a huge game for both and the winner would be in prime position. We've played a few of these "six pointers" fairly recently, FGR, Cambridge and unbeaten at home, Salford. We were worth the thre...

I'm not sure it's not all a bit moot.
