Re: Pirates but not from Penzance. Away to Bristol Sat 6th Apr. 3-0'clock
Three home games left and a tough away one to finish. We'll really need a different game plane against Portsmouth next week, because if we give them the space at the back we've been doing lately, they'll rip us apart. We didn't really cause much threat up front today, but some of that was because th...

Re: Pirates but not from Penzance. Away to Bristol Sat 6th Apr. 3-0'clock
Great 3 points - at this stage of the season its about results not performances. Baxter excellent. Probably a good job. I'm a positive man, but our football is less than appealing right now. Bristol's football was attractive at times although walloping it down the left seemed to be a game plan, but...

Re: Womens football
Bit disappointing result but Sweden were a good side. Lauren Hemp is by far our best player. Runs her socks off every game. Still baffled as to where Lucy Bronze is supposed to be playing. she's classed as a right back but is regularly caught out of position. We might easily have lost tonight.

Re: Pirates but not from Penzance. Away to Bristol Sat 6th Apr. 3-0'clock
Interesting to see what team Evatt puts out now that most have recovered from injury. I am feeling that injuries forced him to pick a settled side which is now starting to click as we approach the playoffs. Do we tinker with it. I am afraid too much tinkering will have a negative effect as it alway...

Pirates but not from Penzance. Away to Bristol Sat 6th Apr. 3-0'clock
Ignoring the very obvious jokey "Pistols from Bristol" headline because it's deadly serious now, we have a lengthy trip down to Bristol come Saturday. Whatever sort of game it will be, a "friendly doesn't exactly describe it. There's too much at stake for us. Bristol are in 14th league spot, so litt...

Re: General Chit Chat
Anyone know anything about building/extensions? Looking at having a small, single storey extension on the the back of our house. Quote for timber build over masonry is at least 10k cheaper. What are the pros and cons of timber?! (Other than it’s cheaper and built quicker!) Timber is alive all it's ...

Re: Race to the tape: 2024's League One promotion campaign
It'll be nice to play against sides who want to play football and win. Is rather do that than just fight dour draws against teams of cloggers. I reckon we're as good as most at pure football.

Re: General Chit Chat
I coach my son’s u8 team. This morning, one of our lads was racially abused by another kid from the opposition team. He was called an “f-in black monkey” the kids parent heard it and she went absolutely wild at him naturally. Turns out she’s a deputy head teacher and she was genuinely saddened, app...

Re: Dem Bones, Dem Bones, Dem Bare Bones....
IE latest interview gives very positive news on the injury front - fingers crossed. Noises that Charles and Baxter could be ready for Saturday. I assume that Charles would only make the bench initially, but I suppose Baxter could start. Dan Nlundulu also supposedly close, although I struggle to see...

Re: Not between the lines...V Reading at home Monday Apr 1st 3-0;clock
I've replayed the goal highlights on Youtube time and time again. It's so good to watch when we are in full flow. I'm particularly pleased for JonBod, because he really covers some ground and works hard for the cause in general. Great that he got two "instinct" goals , the first being sheer delight....

Re: Not between the lines...V Reading at home Monday Apr 1st 3-0;clock
What we did today, was beat a team playing some decent football by playing a bit better then them . Reading were actually impressive in attack and you could never fully relax at any point. Collins and Bod showed real quality and also the harassing defensively by both was praiseworthy. Coleman has we...

Re: Not between the lines...V Reading at home Monday Apr 1st 3-0;clock
Time to focus on now-today and beating Reading. At 4-45 we need to ignore what others have done and just have attained those three valuable points. Talk's cheap, you have to buy whiskey (as the saying goes, although I've been tee-total for years) so let's get out there and show some pride. COME ON Y...

Re: Not between the lines...V Reading at home Monday Apr 1st 3-0;clock
Won't do Bertie, we need the win and points. We're at home and Reading have lost two of the last five games. Bristol have only won one of their last five and both are mid-table. Doesn't prove anything on the day, but we have to win.
