Moaning for the sake of moaning. Plenty of areas around the ground to enjoy the game if it’s not your thing.

IMO he’s added significantly to the atmosphere at home/away games which generally makes it a more enjoyable experience for all

IMO being the significant part of your statement. This has been imposed undemocratically, activates my misophonia, and makes it a far less enjoyable experience In My Opinion.

Premier = 22 seasons

L1 = 27

Highest point in North Lincolnshire = 168m
Highest point in Alicante province = 1,559m
There are over 50 peaks in excess of 1,000m in height.

Alicante has over 125 kilometers of coast line with 89 (2025) Blue Flag beaches (highest in Spain).

North Lincolnshire has approximately 40 miles of estuarine coastline.

1,574 rivers run through the province.
The longest is the Segura at 195miles.

87 rivers run through NL.
The longest is the Trent at 160miles in total length.

An international airport, an international seaport, miles upon miles of glorious pristine blue flag beaches, hundreds of mountains, lakes and rivers to explore, Europe’s only desert sits in the province next door, I could even jump ship and go and watch Elche in La Liga if I so desired (17 miles Hercules to Elche stadium to stadium).

<strong class=”d4pbbc-bold”>Imagine… if you’re the sort who goes abroad and only eats pie, chips & peas, fish & chips, chicken, chips & beans washed down by John Smiths, who loves bingo, tribute acts, karaoke bars, happy hours, drag shows, British themed pubs etc – you can always go to Benidorm… imagine (yuk!)

Fair comment, but to live in a country that still endorses Bullfighting, throwing donkeys off churches, and dragging goats during religious ceremonies, surely implies your endorsement of such barbarism.

There are maybe 6 toxic fans who make unfounded accusations on a regular basis.

Was the private matter Marzipan ?

I’m assembling an email group of our remaining away opponents’ CEO’s, and intend to be in touch to implore the banning of the drummer boy. The evidence and argument used in my narrative may bend the truth somewhat, as will the identity of the sender.

[NorthWestIron]

He’s been drummed out !

At the end of the day, the drumming child seems to have been imposed unilaterally, with no thought for those who find it irritating beyond belief. A vote seems necessary in my opinion, and let’s hope clubs with more taste choose to ban this tone deaf, and rhythmically inept moron.

Why the flying fig would I want to watch a lower league Spanish club with multiple drummers, in Alicante, the place where people go who have no imagination.

Great day at the football, but please god can we ban that infernal drumming child. It’s intrusive, irritating and unnecessary.

I imagine you’re a real livewire at party’s you miserable git.

Do you go to parties to listen to a drummer playing loud and badly ? Maybe I wouldn’t enjoy the sort of parties you attend.

Dumb & D(r)umber?

I love the atmosphere a couple or three drummers brings, throw in a ‘lead vocalist / song conductor’ and you get a great ‘side show’ to accompany the game… will at least at Hercules games.

I love it.

Good for you, however this aimless statement simply equates “drumming” with “atmosphere”. That’s like saying FISH = WASHING MACHINE.

If you get excited by some badly executed ear splitting racket, then the Dumbness lays at your door son.

Another great result however one tiny gripe…. today (and in past) we have made changes and changed the game in a negative way. I get the need to save the players but we were in complete control, Pools were just running around without the ball and I don’t think anyone broke sweat on the Scunny side…until the changes. Only a very minor gripe but if we had stayed the same we might have had a clean sheet which would’ve been most welcome. Overall cannot complain with an 11 point gap from outside the playoffs. We have a difficult period coming up but I think we play a lot better against the top teams. Ewing and Roberts best players in the league.

Every week. Same at Woking.

Too many subs. Yet again the goalie gets the blame for conceding four. Not one mention of crap defenders on this match or the previous two matches. Conceded eight goals and the only comment on this site has been it was a bad back pass last week. All today it was about Boyce coming back and how he would sort it out. Pity his sorting out only last for 85 mins!!

Correct. Horton off game’s gone. Substitution by numbers.

His post match interview he appears to have had a ‘debate’ with a fan.
I get him defending the team but he needs to pare back in his interaction with fans. Coming into winter with key players weeks away (Butler’s assessment) the last thing we need is a big drop off in attendances.
For me Butler needs to change his strategy in game management, he has however said he is not changing anything but you need to adapt when your best 4 players are out and the back up players are just not good enough.

His game management and temperament are appalling. Also why has he had no media training ?

Morecambe to score first, followed by 6 iron strikes.

It was a near perfect corner it seemed.

We did have a proper striker 64 but unfortunately he was out injured for a lot of the season.
And the replacements Michelle and Butler brought in were and are pretty shite.

This compounds the fact that Butler and his assistant need to pack their bags at season close. Appalling management, recruitment and general decision making.

Fylde no threat, just down the road from me. Terrible mismanagement and super skint.

A half competent manager would have moulded and nurtured a solid team,with a winning mentality. Butler has failed at every hurdle, proved deeply unlikeable, and unable to show contrition and admit mistakes. This is where the largest problems lay.
