And here lies the reason SNW is qualified to identify an idiot, obviously he's a closet milliner.

To suggest that we are in any danger of a relegation battle after 4 games is just nonsense.

We could and should have at least 5 points more than we have already. We might have been poor against Solihull but that should have ended up closer than the scoreline suggests.

Cut out the keeper errors and get a little bit more luck in front of goal and things could turn soon enough. On Tuesday night we could have scored 5 - get a grip.

BUT WE HAVEN'T got those 5 points have we, what a dumb comment to make, and I'm called the idiot in this forum, the league table doesn't lie , and where did I post that we need 6 or so 35 year olds ? Experience comes actually playing at this level, you can be back experienced enough at 26 by regularly being picked for your side, so another dumb comment.
Experience is key & I'd expect GJ to be in negotiations now with someone.

Horses for courses is what's required.
National league premier players for national league football unless we're all happy for us to carry on playing teams off the park but succumbing to the proverbial sucker punch week in week out which in turn leaves us so far behind we end up being sucked into a relegation battle nobody predicted.
Yes were only 4 games in, Oh it's far too early to panic , I hear, Bollocks, it needs addressing now, I'm all for bringing on young talented players but you need that experience on the pitch to guide them through sticky periods during the 90 minutes.

Isn't it funny how great minds think alike Dave ?

Rumours are afoot that the team coach driver is sweating on his job security !

Even so, we should thank the fact that we're located where we are geographically, York, Kidderminster spring to mind

Of course there's a huge chasm between the quality of National premier & National south ( there is also a massive gulf between North & South, we wouldn't have won that league ) .

According to Wikipedia Tony Bedeau has signed for for Hardley Athletic , pretty apt really, he was hardly a prolific striker.

I'd take 1-0 right now.

Sorry, but can't see us not conceding as yet, need to tighten up considerably pdq
2-1 .

Watford Gull sort of wrote: ↑11 Aug 2019, 10:01 Horrible conditions across the country yesterday and I’m sure there were a fair few keeper errors. Looks like a tough start to the season but it’s not a bad start My first game for a couple of years on Tuesday so really looking forward to it. Any new signings to look out for? I presume you can pay on the day?

Yes you can, but it's so much easier to purchase on line & either download the ticket to your phone or print a copy of the ticket.

It's rare in football for goal keepers to be rotated and it would risk him losing confidence completely, which is a big risk since we have no idea how the Brazilian would cope at this level.

GJ probably thinks it's a close shave between them ! :~D
