    Remember him on the summer coaching courses, him and Steve Lister putting my lad and his mates through their paces, trying to instill good football values into them all. Nice guy taken far too young RIP Mark what a waste.

    Whilst I’m on the Wealdstone thread has anyone read some of their fans version of yesterday’s events? I don’t do X or whatever their forums on, be interesting to see what they think of their teams refusal to come out the dressing room and finish the game?

    Ewing has certainly been our best player so far this season, Roberts not hit the heights yet and should have scored yesterday but we have seen the odd glimpse of genius, the goal against Halifax being an example. Got to say our two centre backs continue to impress, both very good yesterday and before someone mentions the Wealdstone goal, I thought it was a great cross and a brilliant headed finish, sometimes these things happen.

    Come on PA – what kind of filling in the pie?

    Based on the Wealdstone shenanigans yesterday it was probably shoulder of mutton.

    Two abandonments in a week, another unwanted club record!

    Yes and neither incident our fault, that’s how the cookie crumbles sometimes.

    Really enjoyable first half with three good goals and we deservedly leading at the break. Chances to score second half notably Roberts and Howe plus Rory had a good game between the sticks, very commanding display from him. Then the farce begins, according to AB on Humberside their player has dislocated his shoulder and had it popped back in, just a normal sporting injury, why he was down on the ground for so long and it took an age to stretcher him off, who knows? Their refusal to finish the game based on their players being in the ” wrong mental place ” is bull poop. They had used all their subs, they would have been down to ten men had they resumed so they bottled it and sought an easy way out IMO. Give us the win we deserve, call it a completed game and throw the book at Wealdstone, they have behaved appallingly, unsporting and totally unprofessional.

    All things being equal we should get the three points and a 3-0 win and Wealdstone should be in a whole lot of trouble over this incident, they must be punished very severely IMO.

    Yeah she got it wrong and rightly resigned but she’ll be back some time in the future I reckon. I hope so because she’s despised by the Tories and the right because despite being raised on a council estate and a single mum at seventeen she bucked the trend and worked herself up to be deputy PM and one of the most powerful women in the country, that’s why the establishment hate her but it’s why the majority of ordinary people in this country do need her and more like her in the future.

    Also right wing media in the USA is ignoring Trump’s ongoing health issues, he doesn’t look a well man at all and disappeared off radar for three days recently, unheard of by a national leader particularly in the land of the free. His lopsided smile is being linked to a slight stroke and his swollen ankles plus increased bruising on his hands is nowadays a common occurrence but don’t worry folks he’s fine the best he’s ever been,lol.

    Or me!

    I scored from the halfway line in a 4-0 win over Hellenic circa 1980.

    And who can forget Andy Keogh’s at Carlisle?

    Five a side halfway lines don’t count NI, lol.

    Does that put him in the same league as Pele and Beckham? Actually I believe Pele missed from 50 yards but Beckham certainly scored back in 1995, always nice to see those go in.

    Yes bill chooses his subject matter very carefully whilst ignoring the orange faced threat from across the pond, the fact he’s a world leader is very worrying particularly how he invents problems in Democratic run cities to deflect from his own mishandling of the USA economy . He’s also breaking the law with his misuse of the National Guard being deployed in such a political way.

    Some of my best friends are from Hull.

    Had some great workmates from there back in the day, always up for a laugh.

    Didn’t see the incident thank goodness by the sound of things. JB appears to have come out of it reasonably well out of the two of them, hope the other lad is feeling better this morning. Both players will be missing several games under the concussion protocol and it’s down to daily monitoring by the medical team and they will determine the stages of recovery through rest, light exercise/ training and eventually full contact training before a return is considered. No two players respond the same so it’s a waiting game but hopefully both will come through it ok however long it takes.

    Anyone that thinks a Grimbarian accent is like my Hullensian one isn’t listening. Years ago I was talking to a copper* in Hull, who wasn’t from here, he said he could tell the difference between a west Hull/east Hull accent.

    * I’ve never been arrested.

    I find that hard to believe, I thought it was compulsory that anyone from Hull had to be arrested at least twice in their lifetime.

    I do like Yorkshire, our daughter lives in Leeds and I have been asked about my accent being Yorkshireish more Donny than west or north Yorkshire. When I travelled down South Lincolnshire in my old job, I’m talking Sleaford and further South than that, the Lincolnshire accent does become more ” carrot cruncher ” bit like North Norfolk. I’m very proud to be from Lincolnshire and I guess the accent thing is always a topic of conversation, I would say Lincoln area is probably the more accurate version of a Lincolnshire accent, always thought the Cods sounded a bit Hully Gully particularly the word work which a lot of Cods pronounce werk.

    Surprised the FA haven’t thrown the Cods out and put the Mancs through, you know how the football authorities love licking the a**e of the bigger clubs particularly Man U, glad they didn’t though, funniest result of the year last week.

    Also defenders are undervalued in comparison to strikers, Liverpool offered £35 million for Mark Guehi, great defender IMO yet splashed out £90 million more on Isak, always been the way.

    Yes it’s a sad day, clubs don’t have many legends but Barrie was one of ours, I put him alongside Jack Brownsword when I think of Iron legends. Just a wonderful wonderful footballer RIP Barrie thanks for the memories.

    Tango man was hurting his club by slagging his players off because they would lose faith in him and not give of their best, it was his decision to go public and a poor one IMO. AB situation is totally different and I reckon he will gain more support from it with the vast majority of the fans, nowt to do with rules it’s to do with people backing the players and team, unless you think differently of course.

    So only certain people get to voice their opinions on players but the manager who manages them cannot respond publicly in their defence, yeah right Awaywego whatever.

    Yeah I’m happy with AB saying what he said and his clarification follow up is fine too. There will always be people with an agenda who look for faults, not saying they want people to fail or anything like that but banging on about negatives be it a certain player or the manager can only be repeated so often before it becomes a distraction too many. There is voicing opinion and voicing it in a certain way particularly if it’s abusive about a player that is counter productive, don’t think you need to be Einstein to work that one out.

    Well there was more then a shower raining down at Blunder Park last night and as for Man U they were a proper bloody shower, I reckon we’ve all been purged of our fishy odour by now.
