    I don’t remember everyone giving him a hard time but I do remember him leaning on the dugout roof with folded arms looking like the most disinterested person in the ground most of the time!

    I think the attitude of Robin’s looking disinterested was probably due to him being a Swann choice. We now know life under Swann as a manager can’t have been easy, knowing you really weren’t in charge of things as you would ideally like as a manager.

    I always hyphenate after 9pm SNOT

    I think SNOT hyperventilates too much that’s the problem.

    That’s rich coming from a geriatric old git like you Iron-Bore.
    Your carer will be along soon to administer your medication.

    Keep that paper bag fastened to your face and take long deep breaths in and out, you’ll be fine.

    Whitehall has certainly improved since we began getting it forward more early, he’s winning more headers and the runners from midfield are getting up early enough to benefit from that. Not sure if it’s Dean, his coaching staff or just the players doing their own thing but we look a lot more positive in our approach, just need to finish these extra chances off that are being created as a result.

    Thought Banbury were the worst team at the AA this season, we took our chances against Bishop Stortford at home but didn’t bother taking hardly any today apart from the two goals. Also Banbury for me the unfittest team I’ve seen this season, the gaps and space were opening up for us all over the pitch after just twenty minutes play, quite unbelievable the opposition couldn’t keep up after such a short time of play. It’s the win that counts not the goals but our conversion rate per chances ratio is diabolical.

    Excellent result which once again puts our second place finish back into our own hands, Chester getting beat didn’t do us any harm either. Brackley continue to be very strong and Tamworth are just ploughing on to title glory, what a season they have had.

    Wow Rene proper memory lane stuff and it certainly dates me as I remember us having a Magic Robot game back in my childhood. I’m guessing cass, Mick, les and a few more are remembering the game too, not forgetting Awaywego of course.

    The fans were quite right to vent their anger at the players after the Darlo fiasco but let’s be right it wasn’t just youngsters giving them verbal.

    North of 5000 but nowhere near last Saturday’s game and it was Brackley, if you take that chip off your shoulder you might become a better person wherever you go on holiday.

    The game you are referring too SNOT was against Barnet and the crowd was north of 5000 but nowhere near last Saturday’s attendance.

    ‘Says a lot but says nothing.’

    T’was ever thus.

    Absolutely but no different to the majority of football manager interviews we see week in and out on the TV. You can only regurgitate the same old drivel for so long before it becomes irrelevant. Exhibit A, our old buddy Xxx.

    Mainly pub crawling round town Awaywego, The Wortley ( Jigsaw Disco which was crap ) Priory, Ashby Star and Brown Cow, both long gone but not forgotten, Cocked Hat, Polish Club, Henry The Eighth ( The Crosby ) and The Sherpa of course. Watched a lot of visiting bands there, remember one called Purple Sand, a three piece dressed in purple suits, pretty good though, did a mean version of Quos Sweet Caroline. Even did the folk club occasionally down at The Berkley on a Sunday night I believe it was, where I got my love of playing acoustic guitar.

    The Bridge ( as it was known then ) back in the early seventies was another drug fueled experience. You could walk in most Saturday nights and the atmosphere was heavy in cannabis smoke. Couple of pints and a couple of hours just breathing that smoke in usually made for a decent night, girls were also a lot friendlier in there too, ah my misspent youth.

    Well the Tories always considered the pensioner vote an important one to court, clearly they don’t anymore as was witnessed by Johnson and National Health England sending thousands of old people to their deaths during the Covid pandemic by discharging them from hospital back to untested care homes. That decision cost topside of 20,000 lives and saved the Goverment about £190 million quid a year.

    Reading some JI posts over recent yearas the word standard does seem a little OTT, a few misplaced colon’s hear and there seem quite amusing by comparison.

    Based on what I’ve seen this league is the one our players are equipped for. However nobody deserves the standard of officiating we’ve had to endure. When we were a “small” team playing “big” teams they always seemed to get the benefit of decisions, why doesn’t that work in NLN?

    I think cass because the refs back then in the EFL knew what they were doing (wink wink) , this lot clearly don’t know how to referee full stop.

    TJO could well be right which once again confirms it’s all about the money, nothing else matters, another sad reflection of today’s society. Professional pride? ,forget it, gimme gimme gimme, yes please.

    Not just fans it’s society in general, more bad language, more abuse towards women, as the decades move along some standards of modern life are certainly worse than they used to be.

    The full timers will get more gym time too to work on the weights and cardio vascular if they wish, part timers I’m guessing will do weights in there own time maybe on a day off from work ( if they get one ).
