    Look on the brightside. Promotion is still in our own hands. We just need to win two playoff matches!

    From the 1st whistle on the floor, neat and sharp passing and the passes in front of the runner.

    Down the side and crosses or at pace running in on goal and shots from 20 – 30 yds out with front men waiting for rebounds.

    If only it was that simple!

    … Carlton barely looks interested.

    On the contrary. Shields were in the ascendency after he came on and he was feeding off scraps. However, he chased down everything and wasn’t afraid of putting his head in where it hurts. I still think there’s a player in there but he desperately needs a break

    …. “the sole aim of the group is to raise funds for the football club by open and transparent ways”..

    I’m at a loss as to why anyone would pay £10 to be a member of a fund raising group

    I remember the game. Elton was indeed sat in the stands. The bloke on the pitch was an imposter dressed as him

    Was Scales worth his place, today?…..

    Was worth his place simply for the last ditch tackle near the end that stopped a near certain goal.

    I thought the question was why are we full time professionals.
    If we went part time, we would be able to attract the best part time players with the funds available.We would be a massive attraction to the best part time player.If this is what we get with full time players,then part time(at this moment in time ,is the way to go,in my opinion.

    The flaw in your argument is part time players, generally, will be unwilling to travel far for matches and training. Therefore, we’ll be restricted to signing players from the immediate area

    So the players we signed with our own money, that we can actually afford, might not be as good as the ones for whom a previous owner “paid” massively over the odds for? Well, that’s a big surprise.

    Grow up, get behind the team, have a look at the league table, and support the club that we so nearly lost.

    Agreed, however, it doesn’t stop the manager playing a system to get the best out of the players at his disposal. In my opinion, the current league position is simply papering over the cracks and I suspect we won’t remain top for much longer without a rethink.

    In addition, the fact we nearly lost our club shouldn’t be used as an excuse to accept mediocrity.

    Passing and decision making can be poor at times, however, we need to remember that the players are regional football standard. If they were better, they’d be playing higher up the football pyramid

    £3,375 prize money if we win and £1,125 if we lose. Seems a long time since we last won a cup match

    Apparently, a lot of accounts, mine included, wouldnt work on the new National League TV platform. Tried to re-register from my PC but couldn’t get it to send a verification link. Tried again using my mobile phone and this time, received the verification link using this method. Once the password was changed, managed to log onto my PC ok. The new password must be minimum of 10 characters

    Points deduction Lol. Massive pitch invasion at Chesterfield v Oldham including a mass brawl £5000 fine lets not get carried away.

    Don’t be flippant. A fine of any amount will be a kick in the teeth for fans who have voluntarily given up their time to help the club and made donations large and small

    Nice to see a few not liking women getting involved in football matters.

    I doubt the club would still exist if women hadn’t got involved in “football matters”

    Sorry if I’m a bit late but I’ve just seen that TNT are covering all NL, NLN & NLS play offs. Does that mean no streaming? Anybody confirm or otherwise please.

    Only the NLN final is on TNT, the playoff games will be covered on National league tv.

    I didnt know they’d had a man sent off until I got home! Anyone know what it was for?

    No players sent off, just both assistant managers, handbags in the dugout.

    Sub Adam Rooney red carded in the 64th minute. Technically, not sent off as he didnt come on.

    One of the directors needs to get into Dean and tell them one up top and then replace one up top with one up top won’t bring them back….

    There’s absolutely no way that we want directors interfering with team selections
