The Round Ball Game - II

[teamsaint]

Or maybe this season 3 up 2 down post Bury!

Like an away draw, thats a good point.

The Football League have already said that it's only one down from League Two this season to account for the demise of Bury ( legal challenges and grandstanding local MPs notwithstanding )

I think that ts and I were speculating on what should happen rather than what will happen with EFL protectionism mimicking the Prem.

I’m just now taking in the appointment of Garry Monk as Owls new manager - although he has a record of not staying, either through walking or being sacked by 4 previous clubs, overall he has a sound record, often working in difficult circumstances and clearly is very positive in his approach to the game. Could do well for us and get the best out of the current playing staff, an we have avoided appointing Pulis or Pardew. I’m pleased to hear that Lee Bullen will be staying as an assistant!

Good appointment I’d say.

Not quite sure what happened at ‘Boro.

Hope he does a good job for you Cloughie.

My game today in the Vanarama National League AFC Fylde v Barnet postponed as Barnet have 3 players on international duty.

There is a note that states: Under the policy set by the Board of Directors on International Call-Ups, clubs with three or more players called up can request postponement of fixtures.

The conference table always makes for odd reading with its mix of league old boys, upstart wannabees ( Eastleigh !) and so on.

Great to see the forum teams doing well, sad to see Notts down there.....

...and Chesterfield even lower down.

Chorley 3 Stockport County 0 No comment

Did have a small wager on England 4-0 though

Currently watching Hartlepool v Woking on tv.
Hangers getting the rub of the green Anton,just scored through a dubiously awarded pen and the visitors have had a seemingly good goal disallowed.

Finished 1-1

I was reading how much better Stockport had started the season than Chorley ... Complacency setting in?!

This was Chorley’s 1st win of the season and they are a bit of a bogey team for us.
I think playing 10 games in 5 weeks has rather taken it’s toll on some of our part time players rather than any complacency Alison,dead on their feet in the 2nd half by all accounts.
A whole week now before we play at home to Aldershot so hopefully back to winning ways.
5th after 10 games though,I’ll take that

Fort William are now 2 off the bottom of the Highland League as a result of cunningly having another fixture postponed, thereby preserving their marginally better goal difference.

Indeed it did Rob and we surely deserve the rub of the green given the number of Spanish spies we get .....
