Re: Trotting over the Yellowbellies to three points - Lincoln City (A) 14/01/20
So Hill is now the fall guy. Mind you, he caused a lot of it because of his outburst last week so wont get a lot of sympathy. However, lets be real. We have been operating way above our earnings in recent years, and to correct that will cause a lot of suffering and reality check. We are under embarg...

Re: Up Hill and down 'Dale - Rochdale (A), 3:00pm, 11/01/20
Sounds like he was listening to "hear say" gossip hence his outburst. Poor managers do that. Get a grip and get on with the job Hill. You are doing okay so far. Dont spoil it. "Hill reiterated that he had the support of his chairman and the board, and when asked to elaborate on the criticism and its...

I can only assume Hill wanted badly to do one over on Rochdale for sacking him, and he has taken the defeat personally. An own goal but prepared to give him another chance. Strike one out of Three.

Very strange outburst by Hill. Not sure what's going on in his head. Apart from a very small minority, we are patient given the situation. Crazy stuff.

Re: Up Hill and down 'Dale - Rochdale (A), 3:00pm, 11/01/20
Outclassed in the end by a classy looking Rochdale side. We faded in the second half after starting it very well. We definitely need a more attacking left back as a lot of pressure comes on that side because of our sitting LB. Faal looked very gangling, off balance, head down but full of energy. Hil...

Re: Up Hill and down 'Dale - Rochdale (A), 3:00pm, 11/01/20
Good game. Not much difference between the two sides. We need more threat in the final 3rd. Excellent debut so far from Hamilton with Emmanuel also having a good game on the right. Need more from Darcy and Graham but we are still in it.

Did not someone say "Keith Hill really is a Sunday League manager at best - he needs to go now as he wont get us out of League 2 next year, he's taking the piss."

Re: Brew Years Day - Burton Albion (H) - 01-01-2020
We really do take defeats badly. Calling for the Managers head. We clearly need to find a magician to manage our team. We had no players. We had no pre season. We miraculously got some players in 48hrs, most of whom were discarded by their clubs and unfit. We had to play with under 18s. We have inju...

Re: Contract expiry
We need to sign a good Senior keeper to replace Ben. Definitely not comfortable with a 17 yr old being our only option if Remi gets injured. Its a specialist position which requires a lot of experience in this league. And you just know that he WILL get injured Read my comments carefully. Remi could...

Re: Parkinson's disease. Sunderland (A) 26.12.19 3pm KO
Brilliant point. The players really put in a shift, out on their feet for the last 15 mins but fought for every ball. Have to say Bridcutt was excellent and also Emmanuel. Darcy, Earle and Lowe honorable mentions. Man of the match however - Remi Matthews for those two world class saves towards the e...

Re: Parkinson's disease. Sunderland (A) 26.12.19 3pm KO
Good first half performances. Players up for it and playing well, Bridcutt marshaling things from the back, intercepting playing nice passes forward. Sunderland backline seem error prone and hopefully we will put one in the net in the second half with D Murphy looking the likely person to do it. Sti...

Re: The North and South of it......V Southend at home. 3-0'clock Sat, 21-12-2019.
Happy for the 3 points. However we looked very vulnerable to set pieces and also when we get pressured when in possession in our defensive third. In the first half when we tried to play it out the back through to midfield we look very uncertain as we do not have the technical players to do so under ...

Just glad I have a club to support and when the injury gods believe that they have punished us enough, we will start winning games. We are not that far off. I have no problems with what Hill is doing to date. He is building a team with his hands tied behind his back (embargo). I will give him time.

Re: The Dons visit the University...V Milton Keynes Home. 3-0'clock 15-11-2019
We had Murphy, they didn't. At 36, he's still one of the best strikers in this league. We didn't have a difference maker last season, so it's nice to have one this time. In tight 0-0s, he's exactly the kind of striker you need. Agreed. Quite a few near me seem to moan about big Daryl. But I think h...

Re: Will our guile make Plymouth rock? FA Cup 1st Round 9.11.19 KO 3pm
I say we go for it and play a strong side. We cannot win the league but we can go on decent exciting cup runs. Hill on the other hand will be slaughtered in hindsight if any of his first teamers get injured. Who wants to be the Manager?

And I certainly prefer and look forward to Hill's comments that the mundane ones from our previous manager who continuously stood by the players despite the poor performances on the field. Talk about positive reinforcement being effective. Again I say, the players are not school children. They all k...
