We were flying that season. Weren’t the prettiest watch, but we had a system that worked under Rowe, very resolute & always seemed to find the goals we needed (mainly through Tshimanga) to get games won. By the time we played you in that 2-2 draw at Edgeley, James Rowe had already been suspended...

He did have that moment of madness at your place when we were 0-2 up and cruising granted (he had plenty of those before Cook came in), but in fairness he is far more mellow now. As I said he hasn’t had a great season this year by any stretch, in and out the team all year (mostly out tbh) as...

Be a good move for him that if he is to be released. As you say close to home, & he’s done enough in his time with us to deserve a crack at league football

He’s a different man now. Outscored the other Quigley this year aswell so does that mean he’s now officially taken the iconic mantle of the ‘good Quigley’ ? :animatedf:

He may yet get a new deal here if Cook decides to go with what we currently have at right back, but if he’s got anyone lined up for that position then it’ll be King that goes definitely. Funny you say that though because he’s always been a brilliant player in a 3-5-2 system which suits him down...

The big one… Under contract (16): GKs: Ryan Boot - KEEP (Good solid back up, has never let us down and will be good competition for whoever comes in as number 1) Defenders: Jamie Grimes - KEEP (The captain. Hugely underrated by those who don’t understand football, and appreciated by those...

Our work was done by the start of that 14 game run though, as crazy as that sounds, as it came directly off the back of 12 wins in 13 which took us out of realistic reach of the chasing pack. Nothing disappointing about romping to a title with ease. We had it won in February when we beat Barnet...

Good old Colin, loves it doesn’t he

They hate Conlon so wouldn’t describe him as being a good signing

Well… it won’t be Oldham joining us back here next year after their draw tonight sees them out of reach of the play offs. Who’d have thought we’d be saying that after their last minute 1-1 win & pitch invasion at our place back in August? Stinker of a season from them considering they’ve the...

We’ve not signed a single player since August in fairness

Colclough got crocked by some thug at Gateshead at the back end of January and he’s not been fit ever since with an ankle issue. But he’s our best player when he’s fully fit & flying, so quick direct & skilful but has that bit of aggression you need as well (sometimes too much, specifically in...

Never played below league 1 level in his whole career before this season but yeh okay you’re right mate…

Already got that league 1 striker in Will Grigg mate ;) Only thing we’ll be splashing money on is defenders :lol:

We certainly did. Was very technically gifted, but extremely lightweight when we had him (as was much of that side we had). Remember him having a very good free kick on him too, scored a beauty away at Port Vale. We had a very poor side though so unlikely we saw the best of him.

Fingers crossed ey

We came down with Barnet back in 2018 so would be nice to see them coming back up with us the same year. They’ve been the 2nd best side all year consistency wise, hence their position, so they do deserve it but obviously the NL play offs is an even bigger lottery than the EFL ones really...

Meanwhile York City outspent plenty of clubs at this level with their £129k outlay (Highest in the NL of course)… and look where that’s got them! Notice Forest Green one of the biggest spenders on agent fees in the division & it’s been a similar story for them as it has York in the division below.

Yep been there. That’s exactly what happened to us with back to back 24th placed finishes during 16/17 & 17/18 season. Would feel like a bit of a full circle moment for us if you did get relegated, with us coming back up and you heading down after we got relegated at your place back in 2018...

Good to see Stockport going up after spending a good number of years down in the pits with them. Naturally got a soft spot for all those proper clubs we rubbed shoulders with down there, so I’m also glad to see Wrexham are about to join them in L1 next year also (even if they have spent billions...
