Not going up did us well of course in the end as we got to piss the league the following year with an even better squad. Take your point though. Don't forget Innsy coming back and suddenly being a footballer too.

I don't think 3 wins in 19 is meaningless. I accept that the threat of relegation isn't there as a motivator, but it should work the other way too, and actually give the players a bit of freedom to go and play without fear. This team showed in the Trophy semi-final, I think universally accepted as ...

Garry was generally pretty good at finding strikers. Maybe our style of play back then suited them a bit more. Even when Rendell got injured in the first game of the season at Tranmere he managed to get in Dan GOALman. The only time we really struggled was when Holman left to join Cheltenham and we...

Oh dear , red and white army and kingfield ender, you really do have selective memories dont you. You ignore the fortune some on here made when I said woking would beat luton away at 11/1 and then heat Halifax and solihull away at 4/1 each a little while later. I dont get with other people's money,...

that's the finest outburst on this forum since Hi from Stevenage told us all to fuck off at 2.30am and finished it with "I have a girlfriend and a lamb bhuna"

You're right, it certainly doesn't get easier. That said, not sure we always need to be in awe of these sides. You're joking right? How could we POSSIBLY expect to compete with the likes of Torquay or Notts County? We should probably get a commemorative DVD made of the County game to show how close...

Once again the cup disappointment is levelled as below par, and yet when it suits the narrative form in said competition is ignored. Once again you use the wins that got us to the semi-final of the FA Trophy to gloss over the abject failure of a performance in said semi-final against lower league o...

We seem to be forgetting he missed a couple of great chances at Hereford,

Did he? I remember him hitting our shot on target straight at Hall, what else was there?

Kanu's Nan

I think he's right back. He was notching assists for fun when he first joined. A lot easier to get an assist when you've got a striker to aim at. Would you rather aim at Davison, or our current most in-form goalscorer, Diarra? I'd rather he got an assist that wasn't being fouled for a penalty. I qu...

Exactly KE. It's not long-ball football that is the problem, it's no-plan football.

'I also don’t think that we’d be complaining about “Dowseball” quite so much if it brings success' Can only agree, but our half baked approach to our football whether its Wimbledon 86 or Brazil 70 isnt good. If someone asked you what our style of football was then what would you say? How many times...

Fair enough about Aldershot. But you can’t really compare us to Reading and Soton as they have millions of TV money every season. Should we even be trying to make short term revenue from kids ( particularly young kids , lets say under 11's) ? In my opinion we should be building for the future- 3/ 5...

Full time football should ensure a better calibre of player. Isn’t it the bigger budget that ensures a better calibre of player? I’m far from Kretschmar or Ferdinand’s biggest (based on enthusiasm, rather than weight) fan - but I’m quite uneasy with them being the examples of where the problem is. ...

Stage fright in an empty stadium, sounds like he’s lost most of the changing room. Players let him down big time but the buck stops with Dowse, stand by for RJs vote of confidence....
Happy for her to walk with him if you ask me

The good news is that nobody asked you.

I'm intrigued by what makes for the definition of kneejerk in this. Some people, myself included, have been accused of being kneejerk for reacting to many of the recent defeats in a negative manner. So I certainly wouldn't call my reaction to today kneejerk because I've been pretty consistent with m...

Quick question - would it have been better for Dowse to have lost away to Sutton or Bromley (where we were underdogs), than to have lost (badly) today? Are we ok to judge him factoring the run (including beating Torquay) or is it better to wet our pants because today was really really shit? FWIW I ...

Wrong tactics, wrong players, wrong positions, just absolute utter dogshit fucking bollocks. With the chances they had if that had been Hereford 4-0 Woking we could have had very few complaints. An absolute fucking embarrassment of a performance against a side who haven't played a competitive game i...

That day at Macc was truly Epic. It’s a shame (and quite handy) that there was no coverage or social media. Bedlam. So much noise, so many moments and such a brainless push that gave us the winning penalty :-) I’ve been at Macclesfield away, on a Tuesday night (0-0) when we barely managed double fi...

Are we really talking about keeping a player based on 1 game out of position against a poor Wealdstone team? He hasn’t been able to get near our team while we’ve been fumbling along near the relegation zone. So not sure what he would offer if we are aiming for top half and above next season. Fair, ...

Kanu's Nan

I could actually see Dowse retaining Block if he puts in more performances like that - he's really his sort of player imo and, like Dempsey, still very young... Not as a first choice, but I think the original plan for him once it was established he was essentially 4th choice in midfield and 3rd at ...

Tranmere away in the Fa Cup Got all the way there on train and must of had a bit too much drink (Even though I didnt feel that intoxiated). Ended up being put in a cell like the one below and missing the entire game. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-P2sH-91fRfc/VJG5qmqcCHI/AAAAAAAABqk/ampJANRyVP4/s1600/Wa...

Nothing quite so traumatic... Walking off with the BlueSquare plinth. Got as far as the Bath City car park while their celebration was happening around us, but the WFC coach driver refused it entry (and it was too heavy to take any further). Drinking at Lewes. Running along the front of the terrace...

I see this as fairly low-risk. I doubt we are paying him much, if at all. The only risk is having another player in our bubble. I appreciate they're being tested regularly but this thing is more contagious than most realise, and all it takes is a couple of cases before we're forfeiting games. Hopef...

Odd signing for many of the reasons mentioned throughout this thread. Hope it goes well though, obviously. At some point I'd like to think we might address the issue of creativity from the two centre mids and the statue, but at least if Hodges is to be used as an impact sub it gives the impression D...
