This entire forum smells like a 1970s care home.

How many of this squad are an improvement to the current batch ? Very few in truth. Much prefer where we are today in the main even given the scarcity of forward talent. Always assuming we are gettng rid of the 'can't be bothered' 3some. Agree in the majority of cases but would take Phillips and De Haviland back if the chance ever arose (e.g. Wen we gain promotion to the NL through this easons playoffs). I can dream.......

Interesting that the fan who is physically furthest away from the club often makes the most sense...

In many ways not sure any squad this season should be an improvement on last season, though it must be said, we were crap last season. However, we were relegated and to a league significantly lower than the previous one - given its overall part time nature. Guess what most folk wanted was a bit of passion (which we have in some of the squad), commitment (ditto), more goals for than against (just about) and some consistency (er, no). Guess in this topsy turvy world, we are due a decent win, possibly one of those where we don't play that well, but still score four. Here's hoping.

Mind you they'll probably score 7😁

I haven't commented on the forum all week as I went to St Albans and couldn't think of anything positive to say. Expecting a reaction from the players today tho ( disregarding the KSC game as I dont think that competition was a priority this season with our limited squad) and if there isn't a much improved performance today then it will definitely be time to start asking questions of our management.
I'm going for a 3-1 home win in front of 1700.

Have the Terrible Trio been picked? Yes but they will be joining the game at 3.15.

Amaluzor certainly starts, so he'd better be here on time...

Have the Terrible Trio been picked? They have indeed! Amaluzar's in the team, the other two are on the bench. So, storm in a tea cup? The reality is that we are in no position to get rid of three players, one of whom is one of our top scorers, just because of an off-pitch discipline issue.

It’s the classic 1,2,3.
1, you are fined and told off in the office.
2, you are fined and told off in front of the squad.
If that doesn’t work,
3, you are told off in the press so everyone knows. A proper last chance.
It’s nothing new. Just a tactic.

He is a bit portly, just as the Riverside linesman favours green... Shades of Dulwich? Could easily be 0-3 by now. Time for us to score? Oxford try to oblige, nearly an og.
