Gavin Cowan, anybody at Telford? It`s getting a little claustrophobic in Midlands managerial circles....

Congrats to Kiddie - pretty even first half, bizarre goal, flukey bounce and finished via a deflection. Second half they grew into the game, good second after some porous defending, and were good winners. If anybody is interested, end of an era at SJP. Remaining 2018 Trophy winning side guys...

Found this on a Football League Safety Officers site. "1.3 Capacity The stadium must have a minimum capacity of 4,000 spectators, including the seated spectators, as certified by the local authority or calculated by a competent person, in accordance with the “Guide to Safety at Sports...

Can`t get on to the CFC forum, so will use this. I counted 100-150 nutters at the end, in front of the Brackley section. The thin blue line held, saw tasers in action, then some of them tried to ambush the Brackley "pensioners" on the way out. Agree that it is that 3-4% of the 4,400, but it`s...

On that basis, you could argue that there is no point in play offs at all. If there are two promotion slots, then just promote the top two! I quite like them, and we travel tomorrow in hope. And we seem to be better at penalties..

Can`t argue - everything is in Chester`s favour - you can`t screw this up now, can you?

Expectation is low. This is the least momentum Brackley has brought into the playoffs over the last five seasons (or is it six, so many close run things), The previous squad approached every game expecting to win, this one plays in hope. They gave everything last night though and took five...

One day somebody will explain how, with largely the same squad, we can go seventeen unbeaten, then win 2 in 13, losing at home to the two sides already relegated. I`m not smart enough to figure it out. Agree re promotion, with no manager appointed and little time to build a NL squad, would be a...

Probably would have helped to have somebody in the dug out - awful discipline and lack of leadership from Armstrong and your no 2. Coincided with the best Brackley performance for months. Played with the weight of Johnson`s domineering personality utterly lifted. Gaz Dean will make a very good...

So, that chant was Johnson`s death knell. Gone, after six months in charge. Bizarre, those 17 unbeaten, then the dreadful run since Feb 4th. Gaz Dean in charge... why not? he`s out injured until season end.

"Kevin Wilkin`s red and white army", yes, today, sung by the locals as the Brackley season goes from bad to worse. Can`t have been pleasant for Johnson to hear. My own view was that Wilkin`s time was probably up back in September. But this performance has been coming, and the club are probably...

Could have been worse, Brackley could have relegated you Friday on Wilkin`s SJP return. Would have meant scoring goals though, which is still proving a tad challenging. Nice day in the sun ahead, two sides who can`t score. You`re down, we`re trying hard to exit the playoff spots. Should be a...

Utterly bizarre result, maybe Fylde played their academy side? Hopefully they`ll do the same on Saturday

Looks like the real break up of the Brackley side of the last six years. Johnson seems to be running out of ideas. Overloaded with 30 something strikers who can`t find the net, a midfield which simply doesn`t create enough, and now a Gaz Dean-less defence for the rest of the season apparently...

Interesting at Brackley - 17 games under Johnson without defeat, now 4 losses in 8, team playing poorly. Can`t find the back of the net without huge effort, and now beginning to leak goals. Collectors pieces last night, Gaz Dean and Danny Lewis errors. Four strikers on board now, still can`t buy...
