I'm still struggling to understand why Redmond is just refusing to run at defenders. He's been doing it successfully all season but keeps killing attacks by passing it backwards every time he gets it. Not sure what it is about this tournament that terrifies our players so much.
Ultimately if black players aren't taking coaching badges, they aren't going to become managers. I don't understand why a positive measure aimed at improving access to coaching courses needs to be accompanied by an authoritarian measure telling people who they must interview.
This sums up my thoughts on the matter, the reason that there are so few black coaches is that few people gaining coaching qualifications are black. Better to focus on improving access to coaching badges instead.
Also I find it tiresome when people think we should import American ideas about...
Charlie Taylor is another shout. Not sure what made Stimson think that a player who scored 8 in 27 for Sutton the previous season warranted a two year deal.
In Muggleton's defence he's improved absolutely rapidly since about Christmas time. He's still only just about average, which says a lot about where he was when he joined us, but I wouldn't be that harsh on him just yet.
Fortune was an absolute disgrace during his time with us. In his prime he...
Alfie Pavey was awful in his loan spell with us. His sub appearance against Kiddy had to be seen to be believed, we were 3-0 up at the time and ended up lucky to cling on to a point. Don't think I've ever seen a substitution ruin a team as much as it did for us that day.
Hendon is a decent motivator but abysmal tactically.
He deployed the same tactic in every game he managed: get ball out wide and cross it. After 18 months it got a little bit predictable for opposing teams.
Something like 3 wins between October and March in his second season with us?
Orient...
If Deverdics does sign for Luton it would complete one of the most bizarre career trajectories I've seen.
He was pretty average for us in 2009-ish, career then went into rapid decline, then managed to get a Conference club to take a chance on him, then all of a sudden he's signing for Luton! Odd.
Disappointing how few politicians and journalists are exploring the backgrounds of these migrants and establishing which countries they are coming from and what can be done about the situations in each of these countries.
To focus on what happens to them after they set sail is too late. "Let...
Cowley has done a fantastic job at Concord, taking them from step 5 to step 2 on no money. His teams are extremely fit and adapt well to opposition teams and their conditions - they ripped our reserve/youth XI to pieces at our place playing quick passing football, but on the bogs of the Conf...
Not to mention the fact that we had never previously been in the League before our first Conference win so we've only been relegated from the League twice.
Three point deduction coming for Enfield after fielding an ineligible player despite the fact that they undertook due diligence and voluntarily reported said player's ineligibility.
Andy Yiadom is the best RB in the league by a country mile.
Tom Murphy of Dover deserves a shout. Best individual performance against us this season IMO.
With Braintree moving to a new ground within the next couple of years I'm not sure how a team way down the Conf South are in a better position than them, regardless of whether they're getting a 3G pitch or not.
I've been to watch Maidenhead several times over the past couple of seasons and they...
Oh my Welling were bad. Look very much like a Conf South team bar Vose who can only do so much on his own.
Very easy win for us, we didn't need to get out of second gear and still scored five. Tougher tests in store, Welling look doomed.
It is still in our hands, but we were so awful today and our form generally has been so poor since Christmas that any talk of the title just sounds ridiculous now.
I really don't think anyone will be all that bothered if Allen was sacked if we lose next week, which is staggering when you look...
Grimsby fans were celebrating, you guys were foaming at the mouth and determined to start a fight with stewards. There's the difference, get over it.
As for the Grimsby fans getting arrested: it's pathetic, but our club can't be held responsible for the actions of the Met.
