    On paper they should be smashing it today

    Agreed. You’d say three or four nil to us.

    On course Rene.

    Blues 0-5 Iron

    Let’s have the same effort on Tuesday.

    I see captain calamitous is back, no pun intended.

    Fromt’ net:

    Where does the name Clunan come from?

    Irish (Galway): Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó Cluanáin ‘descendant of Cluanán’ a name from a diminutive of cluanach ‘beguiling flattering deceitful’

    Does it really matter today what the result is were gonna make the playoffs, the elephant in the room is under which manager, most people will agree he ain’t gonna be around next season hopefully with every player out of contract absolutely no one deserves another, so a defeat today wouldn’t be the end of the world and would leave Michelle an easy decision to get rid.

    Yeah, I think it does matter. In normal times, we’d expect to go there and win 3-0 or 4-0… today, we’ll be ‘happy’ to not lose.

    I think Jimbob is here until the last second of this season.

    We think the play offs are a certainty but are they… or will the players start performing and start winning again if it looks in jeopardy?

    Turnover of players at this level is huge. I think most clubs just award 12 month contracts.
    If we aren’t promoted then I’m sure we will follow suit and become a seasonal club.

    A part-time, seasonal club.

    A bit like Billy Butlins but with a football.

    We could change our nickname to the Claret & Blue Coats?

    SO PREDICTION OF 1 – 1
    AND 3 YELLOWS + A RED.

    Long Easter weekend:

    I’d keep my powder dry.
    Get red carded for an aggressive foul on 23rd March away at Warrington.

    Then you’d miss the game on Good Friday, 29th March and the Easter Monday game on the 1st April.

    Long weekend on Tenerife.

    Saturday 28th October 2023

    Iron 6-1 Blue Brazils

    I actually correctly predicted that amazing score line!

    A mere 19 weeks later, people are hoping, no praying that the worst doesn’t happen.

    It seems that most people whom have expressed, see the game as a 1-1 draw.

    WTF!

    A 6-1 drubbing to hoping for a 1-1 draw.

    Yet, going in to the game – we are still in second place.

    It just goes to show how poor this league is!

    Wow. Shocked. I thought Joshua was washed up.

    That it’s come to this:

    If Chorley win at Hereford and we don’t win at Bishop’s Stortford – then they move up to second.

    Saturday 9th March 2024
    National League North
    Bishop’s Stortford v Scunthorpe United

    Bishop’s Stortford’s average home attendance = 557

    Their last three home fixtures have seen gates of 246, 235 and 203 supporters.

    The current incumbent of the First Team Manager title is James (Jimbob) Dean.

    Yesterday, in his pre-game interview, he says of the game:

    “Massive; massive… must win!”

    NLN, Bishop Stortford away – if you’d told someone that 15 years ago they’d have had you placed in restraints and whisked you off to the funny farm!

    Bishop’s f……g massive Stortford my arse!

    I think Ngannou is too strong & powerful for Joshua and I can see him knocking him out between rounds 6 – 9… probably most likely to be round 8.
