Oh dear. Up next, the in-form Alfreton.

[Rene Artois]

Chorley are 3 points behind us with a game in hand.

If Alfreton beats us on Saturday, they’ll be 3 points behind us with a game in hand.

[Rene Artois]

Deanosaur heading for extinction!

[Rene Artois]

In form Alfreton up next!

[Rene Artois]

Blackets a handful.
Great strike from the corner there for them.

[Rene Artois]

Scales… wtf?
At least get it on target.
Shocking ‘strike’

Doesn’t inspire / project confidence.

[Rene Artois]

The great escape had to come off this season, the novelty season.
Next year will see crowds dwindle and therefore income.
We could be stuck on this floor for a while. The lift ascending no higher.

Stu’s gone for Mariners 1-2 Iron

Hats off to him.

[Rene Artois]

It's half-term, no school nights, so why not bring the kids down to the 1st Cloud for a huge night in South Shields history!

Tickets for our game tonight are still on sale, an opportunity for young Mariners to enjoy a big game!#SSFC | #AlwaysReady https://t.co/tdL2KzRBSB

Don’t need a comma after but Rene, keep your standards up mate.

There’s a protracted pause after the ‘but’… the comma was used to try and express that.

You could start a new trend in English writing, how about (pp) after the but?

We will stumble in to the play-offs if Jimbob remains in charge, but, we won’t win them.

Ellipsis replaced with a comma. That should square things up?

Gold star?

If Dean has requested an extension he needs to demonstrate he isn’t one dimensional and knows what he’s doing because at the minute he isn’t doing a great job and has no clue how to change things. Not a great advert for a contract extension. He’s Hilton’s man so maybe we need somebody with league experience and previous ties to the club……

The only extension I’d give him would be some platinum blonde hair extensions.

[Rene Artois]

I think most people have accepted the fact that Tamworth will be Champions.
A lot of people are now fearful of our chances of promotion through the play-offs. Is it currently a 50:50 split?
I think that Jimbob will be here until the end of the season.
I hope that he isn’t given a contract extension.
Torpey for manager?
Harsley for manager?
Butler for manager?
Butterfield for player manager?
Expenditure needs to be less than income.
Ambition requires tethering to the ledger and balance sheet.
I’d rather have a tent on terra firma than an air castle.

It’s shaping up that we won’t.
Are we good enough to win the play offs?
Not if the current ‘form’, psychological and physical application continues.

[Rene Artois]

Every manager we’ve had for a long time now has being fearful of rolling the dice and giving youth a chance.

HMS piss the league has been shot by a cannon ball.

Cannon & Ball (RIP Bobby) would at least put a smile on our face as joint managers.

[Rene Artois]

Que sera sera.
We shouldn’t be having to ‘cheer on’ others.
Jimbob… Johnboy (Walton) would do a better job.

[Rene Artois]

I’ve being saying it for a good while now.
Start him and give him a good run of games to prove himself.

[Rene Artois]

We were pretty much a Pawnshop Iron.

Poundshop Iron = Jimbob.

[Rene Artois]

We will stumble in to the play-offs if Jimbob remains in charge… but, we won’t win them.

Once again, 1-1 is the shortest priced scorecast.

1-1… 5/1
0-1… 15/2
1-2… 8/1
0-2… 9/1
1-0… 9/1
0-0… 10/1
2-1… 10/1

Sadly, I’m going to have to say 2-1
