Another reason for being thankful for Oliver and Terry They may not be pumping the money on players some people want but at least we're stable! Yes we should thank our lucky stars regarding our owners. I am always happy that they ignore the emotionally incontinent posters who demand they create a player budget beyond the means of the club. Many commentators have the business sense of a muppet.

Maidstone stop Kettling in your supporters at the final whistle.
Sort the main stand exits out !

I think this misses the point . Deciding to make all games segregated was frankly lazy of the club .
I feel for the seated stand punters who have to leave early to beat the player walk-way blocking exit with a big build up of trapped supporters. Of course the stand punters could have just turned right at the end of the match and exit gate c with the 32 Guiesley fans but, that would require some thinking and effort.
I am sure some will say it was a police recommendation but, adhering to muppet thinking is also lazy.
Don’t forget wHat comes around goes around and we can expect similar segregation on a way visits. Not that ‘this would in any way inconvience those making the decision to make every home game segregated.

It strikes me that to say anything negative, about 3G, or even think anything negative, is heresy.
Perhaps that’s the worse thing about 3G, the intolerance to other views of its supporters.

No it is not harsh to criticise dependant on if there was a release clause and if so at what level. If some mumpty had agreed a release clause that did not at least cover a seasons wages that would be of concern. It would reinforce my views that whilst we operate at National League on the field we are still at Ryman League standard back office. Harsh I know, lets hope they got a blinding fee or basic mistakes have been made.

There is a view (rightly or wrongly) that the clubs management focus is that it is all about money. Given the critical time factor, our need for a strong back ( especially centre back) it is hard to comprehend money before a strong campaign. What is the point strategically paying the money for a strong core team to only punch holes in the commitment just before the start of the season. Myopic muppertry at best.

I would just like to point out that the Lords, Ladies and Gentleman of the Vice Presidents area all remained seated until the end of the match. Not for us the unseemly spectacle of the great unwashed hoards exiting early and undermining the views from our enclosure.
I personally missed the drummer who adds ambiance and noise which drowns out the grammatically challenged chanting from the Town End. I believe the drummer should team up with a cellist and violin player in order to play soothing sonnets and various ensemble pieces during the intermission in the VP lounge.
Perhaps the spectacle and entertainment is impacted by where you sit or stand, thus prejudicing ones viewpoint.

On a far more important point how many fellow supporters were bitterly disappointed by the quality of the Burger Baps at the away end yesterday. The burger itself was a normal gristly chew of some kind of meat with a mush of over cooked onions plumped upon it. But, the stale previously frozen Baps disintegrated mid chew and fell to pieces the more you bit into it. A bit like the match.
On a similar note I want to remonstrate about no chips. Yes you could buy them outside the ground but, not with your gristle burger. Insanity.
So not nearly good enough Lincoln, raise your game or I will seriously consider taking my burger eating patronage elsewhere.
Now I will let you all get back on topic and continue with self flagellation

Basically Mills and Lokko cost us this match with their juvenile lack of discipline and getting avoidable suspensions. We looked very vulnerable at the back, especially left back. Something not lost on the opposition who leveraged this big hole.
We should have won this, the two missing players should have shut up and we need a midfield leader to control nerves.
Indiscipline could get us relegated and is costing us badly.

Really like the Stones Live commentary over the footage. Will this be a regular thing from now on?? Stones Live need to sort out the quality of the MP3 sound as it's very poor dynamically - sound like they are the bottom of a well at times. Don't think it adds anything and actually the normal stadium sound is much preferred. Probably the poor quality of the broadband feed at the Gallagher rather than Stones Live fault but, needs sorting out and then the commentary will add real value to the highlights.

Well you just have to take the rough with the smooth and appreciate we have have been spoilt over the last few seasons with three rapid promotions. We were bound to hit a bit of a brick wall on form and find the roller coaster of fun has its up’s and down’s. I remember well the down’s of struggling to keep the faith and travelling down to Ashford to eventually watch a relegation but, it all came good in the end.
So let's hope the roller coaster has enough up’s moving forward to keep us in this league allowing us breathing space to consolidate and move forward.
If it was all smooth sailing it would be very boring, although I’d prefer less interesting times. Onwards and forwards. COYS!!

Join imusc come to the AGM and I'll tell you! But I'll happily answer JDL A 53 seat coach to Torquay costs nearly a grand! We have 25 at £23, you do the math! At £30 with a seaside card the loss is manageable on the back of a couple of successful coaches Last year we did make a profit but we only need a game called off same day and that can soon disappear The supporters club run coaches for the supporters I'm trying to find away to get supporters who rely on our efforts to get them to the game I've got a cottage in Brixham, the easy thing for me would be to just cancel the coach and have a 'I'm alright jack attitude' Not my style! Oh the casual disdain of the pretentious knobs who hava cottage. Never mind the hoards of young west country people toiling down the tin mines saving for their first cottage. No let pretentious knobs heads rent or own them all turning west country villages into dormitory wastelands mid week. Has the man no shame.

He would probably be Black Balled by the members. The only way he is getting in is as the Assustant Wine Waitor or Junior Butler.
