Kiddy 1-1 Seals

That’s the lads third penalty of the season – and he’s not scored yet!

Keeper saved it today.

Unbelievable!

It’s a poor game.

[Rene Artois]

How it’s looking, it wouldn’t surprise me

PENALTY to Chester!

[Rene Artois]

Half Time

1-1

[Rene Artois]

Hurrah!

Kiddy 1-1 Seals

Not much quality on show here.
Chester are the better footballing team.
Kiddy are a poor mans Wimbledon of old.
Big, strong, fit, willing lads who are prepared to run, run, run, battle, cheat, leave a foot in, throw an elbow, tug a shirt, body check, dead leg etc.
Long ball merchants.

Come on Chester!

[Rene Artois]

Kiddy 1-0 up … header from a corner.

[Rene Artois]

The final should be a week after the semis at most.
I think the NL ought to look at their end of season organisation for next season.
How to keep players chomping at the bit when they’ve got no game for 2 weeks – then that next game is the biggest game of the season?
Too much stop start.

Perhaps:
Eliminators (both) Sat 2nd May
Semis (both) Wed 6th May
Final Sat 9th May

My bad… as they say.
Wish that had gone in.

Saw the highlights last night on you tube and boy am I glad I’m a season ticket holder who can attend live home games, that commentator was beyond awful, didn’t keep up with events, barely mentioned the players in the build up to the goals and the lack of enthusiasm for the game in general was beyond amateurish, he needs binning before the entire DAZN audience stop subscribing through boredom. Complete dick IMO.

Yes, great to watch but difficult to listen to his ‘commentary’ yesterday.

Fin’s big day out:

Non League Finals Day

[Rene Artois]

We did concede 2 soft goals.
However, we scored 4 and it could have been 8 or 10?
We’d all be happy with the same formula on the 18th.
The icing on the cake for me yesterday would have been if the long punt from well within his own half by Evans had gone in – it wasn’t that far off.

[Rene Artois]

Great goal yesterday.

4-2 … blimey!

[Rene Artois]

How long will it take us until we are contesting / pushing for a play off place in L2?

Better we concentrate on ourselves?

Cannot wait for the play off semi, I have been invited up to watch…and why not?
Guaranteed ticket for 2 people,(will have to bring the wife) overnight stay, and a restaurant meal after the game, all from two Scunthorpe friends i made watching a couple of away games!…. thats how fans should respect each other, no hatred, plenty of banter, and a barrow load of respect.
Just the way I would treat any Scunny fan at Ilkeston!

Did you have a good day out?

[Rene Artois]

We’ll see if it’s the same guy tomorrow.

Oh. Do you mean the guy who hadn’t bothered to find out when the final is to be played?

Yeah, I missed Ollie & Torps.

[Rene Artois]

He wasn’t happy about being subbed – well done Stan, save him for the final.

[Rene Artois]

Iron 4-2 ‘Pies
was 55/1 (with my turf monkeys)

[Rene Artois]

You can kill a game off in the last 15 mins / 10 minutes with managed substitutions.

Bring back the good old days – 11 plus 1.

For me, the rules need revisiting.
5 subs on bench.
3 permitted substitutions.
Additional GK sub allowed if due to a serious injury to the starting keeper.

[Rene Artois]

Cracking goal today to extend our lead to 4-1 with 20 plus injury time to go.

We could get a couple more!

[Rene Artois]

Carlton! … great goal !

[Rene Artois]

CR10 gets our third.

Smashing it!

I’m not partial to this commentator today.

Can you believe what you are seeing?

Iron 8/11
Draw 12/5
M’pies 16/5
(@ 90 mins)

There are more contributory factors than an onion has layers.

However:

1 NLN goal in x,xxx minutes was a contributing factor.

People are lamenting the large amount of drawn games – if he’d notched his fair share (an average strikers, average ratio) then I’d hazard a guess that we’d have finished the season as champions.

No team can have a non scoring striker.

A non scoring striker is struck.

Sadly… we’ve got another season to endure with him.

It’s obvious Stan has no faith in him – £1,500 a week and benched!

Too many sideshows off the field have cost the club the championship in my opinion.

Removing Lee Turnbull.

Appointing a new CEO.

Creating Unity.

Signing Beck

FC100000.

Sacking the catering person.

Sacking the club shop supplier.

Keeping Ramus Twat on the scene.

Stadium Weekender.

All these made people take their eye off the real goal in automatic promotion.

I would be looking extremely hard at the reasons behind many of these decisions and the person who initiated them.

It’s all Beck’s fault.
