Forest Green Rangers

[Bhuna5]

Anyone listen to 606 on radio 5 live will know it is hosted by Robbie Savage on a Sunday evening and i am sure he would appreciate calls/texts from Iron fans, as long as we win on Saturday.
I say Forest Green Rangers, as one caller called his team that.

[Deereyme66]

He might not appreciate it but Chris Sutton will.

Two of their players attracting interest from SPL & EFL, could be unsettling for them. (I hope)

They like to play football so might not get on very well with our cabbage patch pitch!

[Bhuna5]

Chris Sutton did have a go at Savage for his ‘ running down the touchline, after Forest Green late equalizer against the iron.
Hoping we will be the ones celebrating.
And sorry for mentioning a late goal conceded.
We have to start like we did against Boreham Wood, and that was without Connor Smith ( on our Cabbage patch pitch).

[Iron-awe]

Are we about to to change our nickname from The Iron to The Cabbage Patch Dolls?

[BigLeftToe]

Well it’d probably make for better mascots than Scunny and Hunny Bunny!

[Deereyme66]

Get taken over by Yanks and be renamed the New York Cabbage Patch Dolls.

Sorry wondergoals, not very miserable that.

[Awaywego]

F all yanks.

[cassidystash]

Just had a look at our previous against FGR:-
P5 W0 D1 L4
We must be due a win surely?

Is there a YouTube link for tomorrow’s match?

[SDH57]

Given the evening kick off, I would expect it’s on DAZN – checked and it is

I believe it’s just a reaction to a surfeit of the orange faced idiot over the last few days, some yanks are ok.

[Deereyme66]

Great word, ‘surfeit’. Appears to have roots in Latin, with Old French origins and picked up by Middle English.

IFA is still here guys not jumped the IRONBRU ship …
Another 5;30 KO really messes up my weekend cultural temple visits but will happily swap a slip n slide for an SUFC happy ending against FGR

2-2 is my call

[Deereyme66]

Is that what you wear in the ‘cultural temple’?

[another fed up fan]

2-1 Scunny Att 4367

[Deereyme66]

Sloppy and pedestrian for first 30mins. Definitely a penalty. I’d like to see Smith on second half to run at them

[Deereyme66]

Great game after that shaky start. Rowley essential and Westbrook instrumental. Subs made a visible difference, fresh legs, up and at em. First time I’ve seen the pitch in the flesh for a few months. Embarrassing. Must make the players anxious about passing low and trying to accelerate through soil and sand.

[lesgeo]

Hard fought and we definitely defended less deeply than usual!

A lot of respect for anyone who staples together their split trousers. High risk strategy.

Nah, beat them home and away 2019/20 season.

[Iron-awe]

Great entertainment, FG were fast and physical and the ref was rather lenient first half till the pen award. Second half much better from the Iron, FG will point to hitting the woodwork twice and us heading one off our own goal line but we could have notched a couple more from good positions but a great advert for National League football. Chuffed to get the win after working hard to achieve it and we need more games like this at the AA, really enjoyed it.

Great result to follow up the one in midweek. Didn’t give up.

Should have read “previous 5” or last 5 really. Sorry.

[Deereyme66]

There was a period around 30mins in to first half when there was some audible restlessness around the stadium. At the point we were finally getting a grip on the game, keeping possession and knocking it about. I thought it was excellent play. Too impatient, some supporters.

Yeah, looks a bit better now. All time stats read played 9, 4 wins, 4 defeats, 1 draw.

I see their fans are having a good old moan about the ref giving us a penalty and denying them one.

What goes around comes around eh?
