Completely agree and in that dismal season 2 years ago that was something, given so many didn’t seem to bother. He gave fans something to hold on to then and wasn’t a bad player at all.

Got to take our chances. We created enough to win, but Whitehall was poor and Beestin went missing. Nicholson had his poorest game. Oh well, but if someone said we’d get 7 points in the next 3 games before Kidderminster we’d have been satisfied. Just need to work on passing and making the right decision in the final third. So many poor first touches and offset passes in crucial areas.

Player of the season in a dismal year where so many didn’t play well or try, though this isn’t to disparage. He obviously had qualities in his effort and ability to run forward with the ball. Last season he was sometimes one of the few who would I am not meaning to say this shows he was actually rubbish, but it shows he had weaknesses and wasn’t irreplaceable.

That stat puts things into some perspective.
Keep that form up and we might just ‘scrape the playoffs’. :-)
Anything of interest, except for Max irritating Scarborough fans with his jibes at their club?
Nice to see Bru posters raising their game and posts now mainly about football. Seems a couple of years at least since that was the case.
I think it’s more the case that there’s nothing to be concerned about with the board, unlike for the past two years. Those previously complaining don’t have a reason to any more, but they very much did under Swann and Hilton.

The ground looks small…anyone have a clue what the capacity is?
4000 according to Wikipedia.

Getting to the 1st round would probably count as a good cup run now.

Great win. Clunan, Whitehall, Scales and Roberts (in the 2nd half, especially) were great. Shame Carlton blazed over that good chance to kill the game of, but can’t grumble, though some will try. The team must be thinking they’re in dreamland to be winning games like this.

There’s also the horrible tyranny of prostate checks for men over 50. Don’t they know that it’s communism to check for health issues?
In the thread “Mask mandates and lockdowns” you said “Won’t be long before they are back. Get ready for more misery and chaos.” None of it has happened and none of it is likely to happen unless there’s another pandemic, and even then we might approach it differently.
For 20 years or more I have seen dire warnings of one world totalitarian governments happening and the death of freedom in the west and it hasn’t happened. In 2007 (if I remember right) smoking bans indoors happened and it wasn’t some harbinger of totalitarianism. I doubt this will be, even if it is wrongheaded.
You have regularly said that lockdowns are coming in soon, one in August 2023 on this board. They haven’t, so I am a bit sceptical of this harbouring of North Korea like states in Great Britain any time soon.
I did. It’s a load of bollocks. Just like the forever lockdowns that were supposed to come in a year or so.
The permanent lockdowns you promised were supposed to happen over a matter of months. There is no prospect of them, however. I am pretty sure we will still have free and fair elections and we won’t even resemble authoritarian Russia, never mind totalitarian North Korea.
You have been promising that the totalitarian state is a matter of small time away since talking about permanent lockdowns that never came to fruition.
I am not fond of this at all, it’s too Nannying, but the unrolling of the one world Marxist totalitarian government it isn’t.
And the tooth fairy paid the wages instead.
The taxman said never mind we’ll let you off the £192.000 the club owed them.The money didn’t come from Hilton’s pocket.
Hilton stopped funding the club on 25 January 2023.

Those who abused seem embarrassed by their past support for Dave now though, so maybe they didn’t have a better grasp of the situation when they were praising him for ‘saving the club’ by racking up more debt and more.
The wheels of their life have slowly fallen off.
No doubt iron414 will be along soon to tell anyone happy that they’re living in dreamland because anyone who knows anything knows that we’re bound to finish midtable at best, because we don’t play like prime Barcelona in regionalised football.
To be fair, I think the club was healthier (but by no means healthy) when Swann left than when dodgy Dave left.
Marine fans on twitter did say it was a lot poorer performance from them yesterday.

I wasn’t being overly serious! Thought you might see the funny side.
Would agree with all of that awaywego
Never thought I’d see the day when awaywego is a voice of reason.
Reading the responses from some, one would mistake us for having lost 3, scoring none and conceding 7. It’s early days, things might go pear shaped, but it’s not getting carried away to say it’s a good start.
We got good attendances while playing dour football under Jimmy last season. I see no reason why we won’t this season unless we start losing games. Fans are engaged because we are winning more and there is a feel good factor round the club, bar a selection of people grumbling on here. It will stop if we lose more, not because we aren’t playing a carbon copy of Man City or Barcelona.

Labour has never been a Marxist party. Certainly after it started winning elections. It has had Marxist elements, but it was always set as a broad church. Some of the decisions and policies enacted by Clem Attlee would have him labelled as a “red Tory” by some.

I am not so sure we can take the league positions after 3 games as a standard for what it will be like at the end of the season.
