    I don’t bother much these days Sanfran. Don’t do X or Facebook and am uninterested in what a handful of idiots post on there. Don’t see any point in rehashed Hilton tales either.

    Only leaves talking football or trying to have a laugh which used to generate some decent posts but doesn’t seem be what interests folks anymore.

    Maybe we all have PTSD from the Hilton and Swann eras.

    If Trump is a Christian then I’m very relieved that I’m not.

    I’m guessing but my take it was more that Cass than coming off in the 88th minute of a game that was clearly won.

    He was a very grumpy young man when he came off last night.

    We put more crosses in during the last 15 minutes than we did in the previous 75 minutes. Trouble was Beck was off the field by then.

    On a slightly more serious note the fella did OK when he came on yesterday. Put himself about and showed 2 or 3 good touches.

    Something different to Beck and Whitehall. Better in the air than Danny and more mobile than Mark.

    For what it’s worth thought Beck was OK yesterday as well. The team overall looked lethargic and ponderous until the last 15 minutes. When the choice was getting a cross in for Beck or pass it back to a defender we nearly always chose option 2.

    He might be disappointed, the Matlock fan says that they don’t own the ground.

    That won’t stop him Cass. He will have his squatters rights sign on the gate before the weeks out.

    Some confusion in Butler interviews as to Boycies bookings total. Could be 9 or Could be 10. Could be playing today. If not then Evans steps in.

    Whitehall injury will be subject to scan which doesn’t happen until any swelling has gone.

    I doubt Starbucks will be called on until Rose gets injured or recalled by Peterborough.

    Carlton might step up to the bench given Beck will start.

    Same squad as Tuesday apart from Beck replacing Whitehall and Carlton taking Becks bench seat. If Boyce is suspended then Evans off the bench which means Starbucks might get a seat.

    In my view the players all fronted up, put in a shift and did their best as they have done since the Rushall game.

    All we can ask for really.

    Last night Curzon did the same despite their disappointing tendency for so called “game management”. No wonder they struggle for getting people to watch them.

    I suspect most footballers can work a spreadsheet or a calculator.
    If not their agents certainly can.

    If it’s a grand a week for 44 weeks or £846 a week for 52 weeks the costs to the club and the benefits to the player and agent are the same.

    They can’t blame the 5g signal. There is a phone mast directly across the pitch from where Ollie and Torps where sitting.

    It’s what happens when you play 5 at the back with wing backs that can’t play the position.

    Midfield gets swamped and lesser teams skills wise get handed easy possession.

    Agree Man U in exactly the same place we were.

    I think Chester and Curzon realise they play pretty poor football teams quite often in this league and set up accordingly.

    Quite encouraging that Curzon and Chester have sold players that are better than Roberts.

    Thanks for answering one of my questions SYI. That probably explains it.

    Takes you back to when we used to do that stuff without the billionaire.

    How do clubs like Wycombe get to 2nd place in league 1 with tickets very similar in price to ours and average crowds only 1000 or so higher?

    How do Tamworth win our league and comfortably survive in the league above with crowds a quarter of ours?

    How many of our magnificently expensive 7 would make their first teams?

    To be fair it worked at Southport as well. Didn’t work 34 times.

    He could that before he got here. Boston looked like they practiced what to do with it though.

    Torps made an interesting point on RH commentary. Apparently Fadera was playing “park football” not long ago and it showed as “he plays without fear” not having had it coached out of him yet.
    How long will that take? Done by Tuesday?

    Apart from the opening goal against King’s Lynn seen little evidence of any coaching having taken place this season.

    First half was just about OK although didn’t make much effort to build on the early lead. Missed Scales energy in midfield. I am not saying Rowley, Williams and Roberts were disinterested but it certainly looked that way.
    Came out second half and for 5 minutes it looked as if Butler had instructed them to go get a second. We then reverted to it appearing as if they had been told to concentrate on the clean sheet.

    After an hour we started Butlers “give the other lads a run out bingo” and what little cohesion we had disappeared.

    Poor show from the management and the players.

    Yes 5th round is 1st Feb.

    Shame as it will reduce the away support at a midweek rearrangement.
