W 2-1 vs Barnet (A) – Sat 16th Aug, 3.00pm (League Two)

We had a bit of an indifferent start, I remember a 0-0 at Chesterfield which was a bit of a bore draw, and then a loss at home to Carlisle, as it turned out they were both excellent teams.

From things that were said at the time, it wasn’t just about footballing matters, but I guess we’ll never know.

As I understand it, it was over a game of golf! Kenny told Jeff Bonser he was taking part in a golf day on the Thursday before a Saturday game. Bonser said no. Kenny played his golf and was promptly dismissed for being disloyal.

Mainly the style of play they have and them being at home will play right into our hands. We’ll end up with 30% possession but nothing we’re not used to.

It needs to be a ‘us’ performance.

My choice aswell,impressed with Burke and Cox,Jellis needs dropping and Clarke gives more creativity

To be fair he does always tell us post match if this was the case or not .

First game of the season for us and hoping for a 3-1 win. Uncle Albert to score his 100th goal at the place it all started for him will be the icing on the cake.

A mean machine performance to remind us we’re not as bad as we think we are and to reinforce that feeling that this division is as unpredictable as it was last year and the year before that and the year before that…

We just need to be solid at the back , be able to work a set piece and have shred of luck for once.

This is the bounce back game. Tuesday’s game doesn’t count given we made 10 changes and I expect 9 changes this time.

2-0 to the men from the Tracking Pallet Mecca of WS1 . We’ve got this

Hoping for a victory but fear this will be another loss. We have just created very little going forward so far

Thanks GPT!

Not sure about today. Ill put it on in the background while i clean out my garage.

Bore draw!

Do you have a draw for interesting things as well? I’d recommend looking in that first to make the garage tidy more, well, interesting. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Wasn’t that the season when MOC first played for us? I think it was also the season Jimmy Kelly played a few games for us at the end of the season. For those not around then, Kelly was a Paul Gascoigne lookalike, who was just as crazy; he was convicted of manslaughter a few years later.

Yeah that’s right, O’Connor on loan, he was bloody good, as we all know.

I think Kelly scored a nice goal at Doncaster last game of the regular season.

Yes, I remember that game. That win took us into the play-offs.

Just got back off holiday and my sub has run out and the guy isn’t doing renewals today due to premiershit starting etc does anyone know a decent streaming site?
Thanks

Looking forward to this game - first visit to the Hive for me.

Barnet are on a bad run. but we have trouble scoring goals. Doubting very much that Owen Evans will start today as he could provided some assists for us.

Going to be optimistic and go for a 3-1 Walsall win. Goals from Maher (based on his performance against Stoke he starts over JJ for me), Pressley and Flash to prove me wrong and show that we can find the back for the net.
