Where’s this ‘swing party’ taking place? Asking for a friend.

[Deereyme66]

No doubt about that!

[Deereyme66]

Is the third choice getting it ‘stooped’?

This post has taken off on the Facebook group. “Miserable so and so”, fxxk the lefties says iron bru will have the drummer “stooped”, and there are complaints of slander against Positivity Dave.

I’ve seen some of these comments. Amazing how some are still bitter towards Bru for embarrassing themselves so spectacularly in the past.

That’s fair. When I have been to Alty and West Didsbury & Chorlton, the songs have been far more inventive than you hear at league and ex-league grounds.

I think that’s a bit general. More EFL and ex-EFL clubs in my experience. There are numerous non league clubs below us with a rich canon of amusing and inventive songs and and chants. Often self deprecating. Though they tend to be more left wing, liberal fan bases.

WD&CFC are a good example, though they can also be a bit too right on and preachy at times. The other end of the spectrum I suppose, but at least there’s some uniqueness to it as opposed to regurgitated chants of other EFL clubs.

I still saw plenty of it Les. Less but still too evident. Some woeful passing still abundant too. I can see what they’re trying to do with some of the more exciting moves and if they come off, great. 7 times out 10 they don’t and it’s frustrating to watch. Just work on passing please. Could have easily been a draw and would have been annoying as Halifax created barely anything. Ref wants sacking for not giving a penalty. Not denying another good performance and result overall though. 4 weeks can make such a difference. Credit to Butler and the boys.

Not too bad but not a patch on Rovers

[Deereyme66]

Conspiratorial racists are out.

[Deereyme66]

I’m not suggesting they’re being spoon fed updates, more like assuming they are spokespersons for the club and not being discouraged from that mindset. As someone said the other day, ‘useful idiots’. I don’t particularly dislike them either, they do some activity that benefits the club, rather than just their own profiles, it’s more an observation. Though I’m not a big fan of it either. Prefer if they maintained a bit of distance and independence.

As each week goes by it feels to me like Dave and the Iron Hour gang are the unofficial spokespersons for the club.

[Deereyme66]

Haven’t watched it yet but don’t worry about ‘violating any community guidelines’. Most violators hsve left in a huff.

[Deereyme66]

For ‘punting’ read ‘hoofing’

[Deereyme66]

Whitehall’s looked well off it last few weeks moving like a snail. I wouldn’t mind seeing Howe staring up top with Beestin behind. Can’t see Butler doing that though.

Rene Artois

[Deereyme66]

Given the wing options we have now surely he plays through the middle? But for who? Can see him being a sub for a few games at least

[Deereyme66]

Lol, you claimed numerous times one of the clubs was lying.

Anyhow, hopefully it works out for him and the club, if he really wants to come back, which I assume they’ve had discussions about before making a decision?

That’s nice to hear, and obviously no rift between him and Butler.

Maybe you won’t be so ready to believe an opposition club’s comms in future? And keep wanging on about it almost every day? ;)

[Deereyme66]

Sarcasm aside, that’s a fair point awaywego

In comparison to neighbours Oldham and Bury, who I’m pretty sure fare much better.

[Deereyme66]

They had some fine riders, Pusey, Booey, Cartwright to name a few.

Final ball did let him down a bit last night but their defence hated him running at them. Danger man.

[Deereyme66]

If, and it’s a big if, there’s been a bust up, there’s no point in him being recalled if he’s happy at Alty.

Do kids still throw stones down on away fans from the top of the speedway embankment terracing like in the early 80s Tezza? Only joking, probably woke a few of our lot up :)

I get the impression Butler’s dying inside every time Ollie mentions Howe’s name.

Rene Artois, Bhuna5

Harsh on Ewing. Thought he did okay. Not amazing but good enough. Struggled more second half. He started Alfie the previous game and he wasn’t the best. Seems to be playing better from the bench. Harsh on Jones too. He beat players numerous times from what I saw, but not as effective as previous games. You’re a hard one to please Bhuna.

Great game and performance to watch on DAZN. Shame about their goals and Jones error of judgement but agree he pulled off some decent saves. Dausch deserves praise again. Some very smart touches and thinking. Love to watch him. Unpredictable, in a good way. Think he’ll go far.

I thought Beck had been and gone? Or is he there and back?
