    No reserve team in which he can sharpen up, bag a few and build his confidence.

    The delights of being skint in the NLN – we’ve a lot to thank Swannster & WHAMster for… not.

    Frugality is the order of the day.
    No point chasing unicorns, live within our means. And, if that means a decade of NLN / NL football… then so be it.
    Carry on, carrying on Michelle & her merry men.

    It’s all quiet on the Western (ok, NW of Lincolnshire) Front.

    In reference to any new arrivals.

    Due to Swann & Hilton’s tenures – maybe the sceptical amongst us should form a Mistrust? lol

    21 games remaining.

    What psychology qualifications do they have?
    How long have they been practicing?

    ‘players can benefit from mental coaching’

    ‘frequent pops at our own striker’

    Remind me who our Sports Psychologist is… he/she ain’t listed on the staff list.

    If memory serves, we didn’t even have anyone in that role whilst we were in the Championship?

    Ok, you/we could bring an outside person in to work with the players or send them off site to the psychologist. However, those guys don’t come cheap.

    To keep costs down, If you identify specific individuals whom need ‘mental help’ then that may affect their confidence even further and isolate them from the other players.

    We’ve struggled this season to relay/reseed the pitch, let alone rewire someone’s brain!

    ‘Striker’ – more non striker at the moment.

    I said right from the day his signing was announced that he wasn’t for me – nothings changed.

    So you’re saying 31 year old players don’t need coaching Rene? You must have a screw loose. How do you think strikers recover from periods of bad performance? Sit around on their X Box all day hoping the spark will return by osmosis? Potty.

    ‘He’s passed his use by date.’

    He hasn’t. You just like the way it looks when you type it.

    At 31, he is what he is. You can’t change him. 28 is deemed to be a players ‘peak’.
    Banjo will have most likely being training since he was about 6 years old – so he’s had 25 years of coaching, drills, s&c work, development plans etc… do you think he’ll metamorphosise in to a Golden Boot winner with 4 months (Feb-May) of ‘coaching’ from our novice manager?

    I’ll agree he was supposed to hit the ground running

    It hasn’t happened yet but could do if they coach it in to him

    He’s a 31 (2/feb/25) year old semi-pro… not an U11.

    He’s passed his use by date.

    It was the wrong time to play Rushall for several reasons.

    Shrug those shoulders and move on!

    The top 11 teams in the ‘Home’ table are covered by just 4 points.

    Anything and everything is on the cards for Saturday!

    Cut our losses and move him on.
    The Banjo is out of tune and probably unable to be reset.

    Hercules (Alicante) – playing in equivalent of L1 in England.

    Bubblegum football today.
    A 5-1 thrashing of the team in second place.

    Who’ll score more goals between now and the end of the season?
    1. Beck
    2. The CEO
    3. The H&E Manager

    21 more games to grab a goal.
    I wonder what price he’d be to not score a single goal?

    Same when we had no available forward at Scarborough how long was it before Banjo Beck signed…

    Keep swinging that Banjo, Beck… eventually, you’ll probably find and hit that elusive barn door!

    I still cannot connect Peterborough to anything on this thread ,in particular the one he quoted.

    Did anyone work out what the feck Peterborough had to do with the price of fish ?

    Surely Dec Howe must be on the radar of the likes of Grimsby, Lincoln, York, Doncaster, Rotherham, Barnsley, Harrogate?

    Maybe the players were protecting their own interest yesterday – their health fitness & safety… not feeling ‘comfortable’ playing on a synthetic surface at zero degrees Celsius?

    He’s still here.
    Performances are crap.
    Yet we’re still 3rd.
    He’s entrenched.

    Yup.

    Oz guy was gratingly painful today.
