2nd January 2016 Matchday Thread

[Son of Cod]

Another sweet strike from Ollie Norburn from the left hand corner of the area for our goal. Completely against the run of play. I think it stunned the Mariners and the home crowd. It certainly stunned us Guiseley fans!

Perhaps not as much this season, but since we've been down here it's incredibly frustrating how many stunners/freak goals we go 1-0 down to against the run of play and then end up having to try to smash down a brick wall of parked buses to get anything from the game. Fair play to you lot though, going from the radio coverage you've summed it up well. Sounded like for all our possession in the first half we only mustered a solitary shot on target. Still unbeaten since the Cheltenham match but today was a huge chance to close the gap on them with them not playing. Two points lost and exactly the type of result that may prove to prevent us from winning the title.

Have you not seen the "pitch" at Braintree?

Braintree groundsman claims to have located centre spot!

 

[Sparrow]

FAKE. Braintree don't have a groundsman.

FAKE. Braintree don't have a groundsman.

True that - they have a team of ghillies

Hit the nail on the head there. I could tolerate it if we were winning every week, but the fans have had enough and it looks like our two best strikers in Mangan and Norwood want out (if you believe our forum), and I can't really blame them.

Mangan has resigned for shrewsbury ive heard

 

[Alty Pieman]

I was being sarcastic, very, in fact.

Anyway, our highlights are on Blues Player, if you're already on the FLi network as well you can see them, but I doubt it as you do a good free highlights package, don't you?

The whole incident was fairly innocuous to be honest.

Fair enough. We only cover home games with Alty TV.
On Clee, he needs an op and it sounds like he broke down or twisted his knee, nobody is saying it was a foul or anything.
We will miss him badly, even 20 mins of Clee is worth having him around, ask your RB

One for DSL.

You may or may not know that 2 of our worst 4 players this year are Calamity Jon and Tractor Tom. The other 2 are Hobson and Chapell.

Sounds like it might be similar to what Chris FGR does for a living.

Id happily take "Calamity Jon" and Tractor Tom back at the Impact. Not had a chance to see the highlights show yet but did notice Jon own up to an error on Twitter.
