    A home game on the back of a good away win may have enticed a few back.

    But we’ll have to wait until NYD now!

    At least it gives the likes of Bunn, Kenyon & Davis extra rehabilitation/recovery time.

    I think you’re being overly optimistic if you think we’d be able to bring in a new signing on New Year’s Day tas!

    Form table from last six games has us 15th.

    If we continue with this form we’re on for a 47pt finish.

    Still squeaky bums, but if we can grab a few wins and build some confidence we could even reach the magic 50!

    We’ve scored more goals than another team?

    How?

    Need a few more of these, but out the bottom two at last.

    On alphabetical order 😂

    Happy Boxing Day!

    No Beestin in the squad either.

    Injured? Covid?

    The weather and Covid restrictions are worse in Scotland and all their games are on!

    Read into that what you will.

    “Known as ‘treatment’ if I remember. Another set of morons went by the name of ‘F Troop’. There’s a documentary somewhere about”.

    On the other board I posted about only being three clicks away from far right content on YouTube.

    This was my experience. Went on YouTube to watch the highlights of a couple of European games. Was directed via “you may also like” to some 70s games including the replay of the Leeds v Chelsea FA Cup Final. That led to clips of footballers fighting (Franny Lee & Norman Hunter was a goodie) which in turn led to a documentary about those Millwall firms!

    I promptly exited!

    Dunno about August, but if Hill had been brought in after Tranmere got rid in May, then he’d have been able to oversee the summer transfers, which for the second season under Cox were mostly disastrous.

    I doubt we’d have signed O’Neill or Perry, and perhaps Kenyon’s and Bunn’s injury records would have been picked up on.

    We’d have had a B&N in the building for sure and most likely a decent captain.

    All ifs and buts I know, but I’d argue he’s more savvy than Cox when it comes to bringing in the right players.

    I was in the Gallowgate end for the original tie in 74. I went apeshit when Keeley scored, then realised I was surrounded by Mags. I braced myself for a good kicking, but they just stared at me in bewilderment!

    Great memories.

    The 57/58 Div 3(N) winning season I assume BS.

    I was just a nipper living in Brigg still. But I remember the excitement around it. I have a photo of Jack Haigh heading in at SJP hanging on the wall at home.

    Pride of place for when any Mags visit!

    Season 2008/09 was my favourite, or maybe 2006/07.

    1998/99 wasn’t bad, and that 1969/70 cup run will live long in the memory.

    Complements of the season to one and (mostly) all. 🎄

    To be fair the last thing we need at the moment is a refurbished ground.

    Can any of the builders play centre forward?

    So we sign players who are non league standard whilst non league teams sign players who are league standard?

    Funny old game!

    Swann should have been dragging Hill here in May when he left Tranmere.

    October/November was too late.

    The fat lady hasn’t got out of bed yet, but it’s not looking good.

    I hope for Alcazar’s sake Swann doesn’t pick up on this.

    What I noticed today was that whilst the PL & EFL were decimated by postponements the FA Trophy had very few.

    Scotland had relatively few cancellations and the Welsh League had none.

    Should we read anything into this?

    Some of the lower ranked clubs in the Trophy will have part-timers. Are the top clubs too complacent about letting their players choose whether to have the vaccines or not?

    If you’re British then you are either a Celt, an immigrant or a refugee.

    Didn’t Paddy Madden arrive in January?

    A similar signing would be useful!

    The only thing we’ll miss about Taft is his height.

    Rowe is a better player with the ball at his feet.

    The loans can go home for me (and probably for Hill too) Pugh and Gallimore are no worse than Hackney and Wood and a fit Bunn (big ask I know) would keep out Scrimshaw in my book.

    On recent showings Billson should not take Watson’s jersey.

    Yes, we’ve little confidence in Swann right now, so we can only hope Hill is his own man and not beholding to the cygnet or players agents.

    Keeping them crossed until February!
