I think it's just down to what Louis van Gaal would call the law of Murphy. Our pitch is in good nick, our physio has been with us for years and is highly respected, but this season the freak/serious injuries just keep on coming. Even the referees and linesmen in our games aren't safe...

Er... hence the reference to Shaz's Magic Calculator (the reason why he was turfed out by Ingram at Woking)...

Fair enough. But still - I know he can come across as a bit of a dick at times (as can we all!), but I don't really see why so many Woking fans are so violently against Mike Smith. He's only really a puppet chairman anyway, primarily a public figurehead - installed by Chris Ingram after he...

You're quite obsessed with our chairman, aren't you? Did he ban one of your little pals?

Must admit I did laugh at the chairman's post on their forum. His answer to their current bad form? Swelling the squad with more highly-paid mercenaries.

Yes, it's certainly been a highly successful season for you. You've never really looked in serious danger of relegation.

And apart from us - we beat them 5-1 at their place a few weeks ago. But of course, we're not a top side any longer...

But it's clearly an inflammatory remark. Why would a forum moderator feel the need to post something of that nature? Surely it's incumbent of a mod to pacify rather than attempt to wind up certain posters/clubs?

Reluctant as I am to speak up for FGR, is this really something a forum moderator should be posting?

Not really answered any of my points though, have you? Yes, Smith comes across as a bit of a dick (he's from Yorkshire after all), but blaming him for absolutely everything is just looking for a convenient scapegoat. We lost today because the management cocked up. So you'd have accepted a...

Another tired old misquote of what was actually said. Or is Smith also to blame for us only getting two points out of the last four matches against limited, bottom-half opposition? And did Smith leave Bruno Andrade out today? Who knows, maybe he's also responsible for picking the starting...

It's either in their contracts or it isn't. Not a difficult one to sort out either way, surely?

At least we have a bus. Still, congratulations on staying up again. Another good season for Aldershot.

You're right. Braintree will finish fourth, but fifth definitely looks up for grabs.

I think "disappointing" is the right word for FGR's attitude. All that money, and yet they choose to play a mind-numbingly dull long-ball game allied to a crude, cynical, overly physical approach. And of course, you don't appoint Jamie Day as assistant manager because you want to play...

I'd say Guiseley.

It is. We even have a full-time chef. Let's hope it pays off, otherwise we might be following in the footsteps of Halifax Town AFC...

Why are they obviously conflicting? We don't "lose" 400k a year, we "lost" 400k last year - primarily as a result of setting up the Geoff Chapple Lounge, a conference facility that is aimed at improving our off-the-field income in the long-term.

I can't "do the math" because I'm not American, but I can certainly do the maths, thanks. Anyway, your budget is £3 million rather than £300k. (Well, if you can make up stuff, so can I)
