Judgement Day approaches.

[Rene Artois]

1 member = 1 vote
1 STH = 1 POF ticket?

It’s discriminatory allowing a ST holder to be able to preferentially purchase 4 tickets.

Very poor imho.

[Rene Artois]

Yes, it works fine for me. Good connection, good quality pictures.

Oh, right. Yes, far too long between the semis & final.

[Rene Artois]

Some are experiencing a longer wait than others.
Went back as far as Gateshead as that’s probably as far back as anyone on here can remember or have seen play in the league?
I’ve missed out those who’ve dropped out in the last few seasons like ourselves. And a couple or four who only had a very brief spell in the EFL.

Last league season:
Aldershot Town 2012/13
Barnet 2017/18
Boston 2006/07
Bradford Park Avenue 1969/70
Bury 2018/19
Chester 2008/09
Dag & Red 2015/16
Darlington 2009/10
Gateshead 1959/60
Halifax 2001/02
Hereford 2011/12
Kidderminster 2004/05
Macclesfield 2019/20
Rushden 2005/06
Scarborough 1998/98
Southport 1977/78
Torquay 2013/14
Workington 1976/77
Yeovil 2018/19
York 2015/16

Ryszard Lech Krzywicki
8 Welsh caps and a goal for the dragons to boot.

Aka – Dick Krzywicki

[Rene Artois]

Pleased for them, they’ve had a chequered past.
Do they own the ground now?
If memory serves, they were in serious financial difficulties about five years ago.
I see their average attendance this season was 723 – 1.6% of the towns population.
I believe that they’ve always had problems getting people to ‘back’ their home town? Sheff U / W, Rotherham, Donny and Mansfield all within 30 minutes.

[Rene Artois]

Why not? He was England manager.

[Rene Artois]

I see it ended 0-0.
Glad I stopped watching when I did.

[Rene Artois]

37 mins
Still 0-0
I can’t watch any more of this, it’s dire!

[Rene Artois]

30 mins gone … 0-0 … complete borefest … I don’t think there’s been a shot on target yet.
No tempo, urgency, desire.

[Rene Artois]

A 900km round trip saw us piped 4-3 last night.

We are currently 10th of 20 teams and need 1 point from our last 3 games to guarantee football at the same level (equivalent to EFL L1) next season.

[Rene Artois]

My mob go:
Head 13/8
Draw 23/10
South 6/4

Gateshead are in shocking ‘form’, losing 9 of their previous 11.

Southends last 11 games – W5 D4 L2

Gateshead sit 10th in the ‘Home’ table with a +6 GD

Southend sit 9th in the ‘Away’ table with a +2 GD

Gateshead won the away fixture 3-1 back in September.

A hard one to call.
It could end up anything!
I’m going to stick my neck out and say:
Gateshead 2-2 Southend

[Rene Artois]

Hopefully, Stan will start DW up front with Carlton. They (if he’s here next year) could be a great strike force for us next season.
Fingers crossed for CR10

[Rene Artois]

Aye, think we’ve a better chance against Chester than bully boys Kiddy.

[Rene Artois]

Having to wait 13 days for the final is unjust.

Final should take place within 7 days max.

YESSS!
Glad they (Chester) won.
It’ll be a better final with Chester in it.

[Rene Artois]

Kiddy 1-2 Chester
82nd min
Get in!

[Rene Artois]

Att: 4,647

[Rene Artois]

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.

[Rene Artois]

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.
