I would agree with most of this, although I think the criticism of Martin Foster is a little harsh. He does cover a lot of ground, and force errors. There were a number of occasions yesterday when Zebroski / Foster / Hargreaves pressurised the Weymouth defence into poor distribution. At the back, I ...

I have only seen the Rushden and Aldeshot games recently, but Brevett gave away the free kick from which Rushden scored, and Johnson was (largely) responsible for the Aldershot goal. So, yes, it is a tough one. If anything, I feel Brevett has more fitness, but less commitment. Johnson worked hard at...

I was disappointed by today, too, but I believe that in September, October and November we quite often had luck on our side - to some extent, this run is something of an adjustment. What does matter is whether we preserve the self-belief - that's the difference between bouncing back and slumping int...

8th November 1969, when I was ten. We beat Carlisle 1-0, and I was hooked. My family didn't do sport, and so I went with a friend's dad. I then went a few times whilst at school (on the bus from Abingdon with friends - haven't times changed?), and then nearly got beaten up by Hull City fans on the w...

Half of my point is that in Chris Tardif, I had always thought we had a very good keeper for a (somewhat) higher level. If memory serves me right, in 2004 -5 he was not only fans' player of the year, but 'Goalkeeper of Div 2' or somesuch. When Billy joined us, he was clearly Talbot's man and there w...

I agree with most of that, although I think you are kind to Turley, and harsh on Hargreaves. I'm not quite sure what Tardiff needs to do to get an outing. Turley's judgement doesn't look solid to me, as demonstrated in the second minute when FGR nearly took the lead. Hargreaves hasn't got much class...

I hope my memories of our performance at Brunton Park last season are not too relevant here. We lost 2-1, to the side which, of course, both won the league, and the Conference the previous season. We were the better footballing side, and Basham was particularly good at holding the ball up. Problem w...

What makes the difference for me is the quality of the discussion - ie, whether people who comment on players have actually been to the match, whether those who comment on management issues have some understanding of the financial and organisational issues. Sorry to sound a bit elitist, but I get a ...
