What shirt did we play in away or third kit.
Home kit.

Utter shite ! I apologise unreservedly for wasting anybody’s time reading any deluded garbage from me thinking this team was any good. Beyond embarrassing performance.

I’ve tried to be as supportive to Dean as possible since the takeover by Michelle Harness and Co, but after last night – he is done.
In my opinion he has lost the dressing room after not being present at the Brackley away game. I can’t see how they can continue with him in charge, whether it’s Butler or someone else they can find to help, someone else needs to be in charge of that team.
And as Awaywego said in the other thread – bin those bad luck Hilton designed Hull/Grimsby/crop top away kits !The fact is that almost was every NLN game I’ve ever watched. Absolute car crash refereeing decisions, rubbish football. Have you ever wondered why the average attendances in this league are what they are ? If it was any good why go watch EFL or Premier League or pay for Sky Sports ? No point buying a Newcastle season ticket just go down to Blyth Spartans and watch some quality football for £15…..
Going on about Dean and his tactics is a waste of breath. Even if Harness and the board found some money to replace him – and wanted to do it – then they are just Swann version 2 sacking a manager that’s second in the league, and only lost 6 league games whilst dealing with the most horrendous situation the club has ever endured.
I get it that 64 saw something on Deans twitter and doesn’t like him as a person and I get it that CMC maybe knows something about him and has never liked him, so anything less than winning every game in style they are going to take the chance to be critical. But non of that is going to move Dean on.
In regards to this specific game did Dean change his mind and disallow Scales goal after stupidly playing an advantage for a nothing offside ?
And was it Dean that didn’t give us a penalty when Wilson was tripped by one defender, stayed on his feet and was then pushed over by another defender, and then book Wilson for diving ?
Did Dean, in added time which he’d allowed too much of, play a weak pass towards Scales in our own half and allow it to be intercepted ?
Then how did Dean not manage to not catch the cross that followed, or maybe tip it over the bar rather than palm into his own net ?
I think we can pick up the necessary points and I think Tamworth will run out of steam.
If that doesn’t happen and we fail in the playoffs then Dean is gone at the end of his contract, he must know that, so I’ll judge it at the end of the season. Until then you’ll be glad to know I’ll log out and just go to Glanford Park and watch whatever unfolds, unfold.10 users thanked author for this post.
It’s not raining here!
The 3-0 win for us in on then !
Tuesday night in February, wind blowing and rain pouring down a scrappy 1-0 win would be fine. Unfortunately some want a stylish 3-0 with the other team barely able to enter our half. If we actually lose tonight there’s going to be dummies spat out and teddies exiting prams.
Squeaky bum time.
You talk about me making stuff up TJO, in the 90s Mick Buxton total football era we averaged just over 2500 for a lot of Saturday games and 1500-1600 midweek.
3500 crowds really didn’t happen till the play off pushes.
Yeah, that’s fair enough cmc. I should have known as I was a regular in that 2,500 crowd.
That is probably true. What I’m saying is that Michelle Harness and the board haven’t waved a wand and thrown millions of pounds in, they’re still digging us out and all I can do as a supporter is support.
We’re not in a position to pick and choose the manager or the players yet.
As others have said there’s 3500 who’ll turn up regularly and there always has been.Based on the football I’ve watched on Tuesday and Saturday I’d never go again.
My reasoning to keep going is to support the club financially and try and support them to get out of this horrible league which Swann and then Hilton have driven us into.
To that end, for this season, Dean and the players have my support. I think we can grind out the results to keep up pressure on Tamworth and worse case we finish second and are in pole position for the playoffs.
Once we get into The National League and club gets out of the embargo and some of the expensive player contracts they are signed up to then I’ll have some expectations and the games should be better.2 users thanked author for this post.
She did. Just before she ran off with my best friend….
I’m going to miss him.2 users thanked author for this post.
I can’t keep up !
You’ve gone 30 more than cmc Iron-awe. Only 1716 down on Tuesday so not that bad.
That was a dire match in a season of dire matches.
Wilson looked like Messi in comparison when he came on, actually stringing 2 passes together and trying to go forward.
Fitz definitely man of match.Indeed it is ! Without doubt better numeracy than Mr Hilton.
5277 attendees for Tamworth of which 249 were from Tamworth.
3285 for today against Rushall of which 27 were from Rushall.
I make that 1716 who didn’t turn up today. You really need to stop making things up CMC.1 user thanked author for this post.
He was in hospital on 3 October and signed off for 6 weeks.
In that period we beat Brackley 1-0, lost 2-0 to Chester, beat Spennymoor 6-0, beat Bishops stortford 6-1, drew 1-1 with Boston, won 2-0 at Banbury and beat Gloucester 2-0In actual fact, he missed the Brackley game and was back for all the other games you mentioned.
I watched the Boston v Tamworth game last week which was 0-0, if either team had scored they would win, but neither of them did. Utter dross like most of the games in this league.
Last nights game for us it was like watching the same game as that Boston match, except Whitehall panicked, smashed the ball out for a corner and we conceded from a Sunday league level goalmouth scramble, this is the level of football we are at.
Formations, players, Beestin, Wilson, Clunan, or Pugh, Shrimpton or DSF it doesn’t matter we’d see the same game, get the same poor officials.
Until we’re on a financially solid footing everything else is just like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Who would we replace Dean with and who would pay for it, bearing in mind we are still digging ourselves out of a very deep hole ?4 users thanked author for this post.
We’ve got the same players tomorrow as when we beat them at their place.
IRON: Fitzsimons, Ogle, Kouogun, Evans, Clunan, Beestin, Elliott (Whitehall, 57’), Wilson (Shrimpton, 72’), Scales, Law (Butterfield, 57’), Denton.
IRON SUBS: Kelly, Boyce.
They had Jellis for that game.

There isn’t.
If the club is making a loss overall, which it surely is, then will they have to pay any tax ?
Maybe next season when the playing budget is at a more sensible level we will attract players like him. We’ll be fishing in a different pond to the one Hilton dangled his fantasy fishing rod into.
We just keep finding out more and more about the disaster that was Hilton.
And people still come out with stuff about how they’ve had enough of just been grateful we’ve still got a club.
It’s clear that next season we won’t have a lot of the current players or they won’t be on as much money.
Many thanks again to Michelle and everyone involved. Whilst I am a paid up Guardian reader (you won’t be surprised Kitchener), I’ll happily also praise Holly Mumby-Croft for doing her part as our MP.“Reasons out of my control“
