Love that Dougie still makes careful subs when we're two up against a lower-league team. See it out lad!
Baptiste for Pratley.
I'm going to wake up at 3am and think I dreamed that particular one.
That's not a leopard!

I'm sure someone will find some tictacs down the back of the sofa that were the wrong colour or sommat...... :wink:
Where was such person pre match? I'd also says where was he during the match but he will post saying he was there. Let's see what he has to say after the win. He will only post because he has been called out.

Mind you, they were only a bunch of part timers weren't they?

Any views on the meaningfulness of pre season friendly results?

For a game that you couldn't give a flying feck about, you seem to have more than anyone else to say about it, BWFC-I. :conf:

Dougie proved in an interview earlier that pre season is meaningless apart from fitness etc. He said last time we played this lot and drew 3-3 we had a double training session earlier in that same day and players given more freedom to get up the pitch etc..

He said tonights game was a different ball game and would be much more focus from players etc.

So, who next? Draw's on bin-lid TV, Thursday dinnertime (dinner being what you get at school off the dinner ladies).

Ipswich make six changes and are beaten at Stevenage. Getting them away in the next round would tick a groundhopping box.

Them or Brentford (beat both Dagenham and Redbridge 3-2), which is just up the road from me, although I'd guess a fair few Wanderers have already graced Griffin Park.

Or Orient, who've beaten Cov; or MK Dons, who won at Northampton - don't think we've ever played in MK have we?

Mind, a few of our local correspondents might fancy the short hop to Accy, who've won at Middlesbrough.... or Morecambe, who beat Wolves...

(Another option: Burton, who won at Sheff U)

Newport are winning at Brighton!

These games can be tricky at times, so it's a good win regardless of whether the game or cup is important or not. Nice to see our second string team winning and some players getting game time.

Look I didn't want us to lose. Just think league is the priority.

But great to see kids coming in and scoring and doing the job. Gives me a real buzz does that and if next round is more local or at home I will no doubt go.

If we use the competition to give a few young uns experience I'm more than happy with that.

They were simply known as Pink Ladies at our school, due to the colour of their apparel worn whilst serving us lunch. :fingers:

And in order for us to do that we need to win rounds. Look indeed. :roll:

Ream wasn't terrible .... he wasn't good. The biggest thing I can say is that he's not a footballer. It's like he's not a natural player at all. He's fit, and moves well but his reading of the game is negligible, so he's always on edge. His team mates similarly are nervous whenever he is involved. His choice of movement or pass is poor.

He puts me in mind of the guy invited to play a match for his pub because they're short for a game. He plays rugby really but is persuaded to give it a go.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.
"I understand you are a very good footballer" ... "I try".

Seen the goals. Huge credit has to go to NGog for the third. Simply brilliant play.

No. What we got wrong was we didn't defend well enough and didn't attack well enough. It's obvious.

You've been warned about this shit before. CH has already ascertained your address for me from your IP address. All I would say is worry.

Thought Hall's goal was a good en. Looks like a player who isn't scared to run at defenders with the ball and take a shot. Left footed Chris Eagles.
