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.

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

Ooooh, oooh, we are sooooo scared of something about as catching, AND AS SERIOUS as the common cold
Says the nappy wearing baby that’s scared of a needle.

And the same Damien Henderson that scored a goal every eight games!

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!

Rory “clean sheet” Watson should keep the shirt.

You could tell after five minutes this was going to be a nil-nil.
With two poor forward lines the only way either side was going to score was from a mistake or a set piece.
We’re better organised under Hill. We press more and are generally harder to beat, but we create very, very few chances. Our one and only corner came in the last minute, and it didn’t beat the first defender.
On a positive note our young midfielders did not look fazed and with a bit more composure Gallimore could have got the winner. Hippo caused them problems (have I really just said that) and Bunn looked like he could add an extra dimension if he stays fit. Apart from a couple of sliced clearances Rory commanded his box well. Taft was no miss second half. I don’t know how he did his groin, he didn’t exactly exert himself in the first 45.
But we desperately need goals from somewhere.
Three good signings in January and we might have a chance.

Can’t believe Green gets the nod ahead of Scrimshaw or even Loft. Or even the club cat.
Surprised it took 45 minutes!

We are only 16 points off the play-offs !
That’ll be the 16 we’ve chucked away after being in a winning/drawing position.
