What do we know of Saturdays opponents ?

Manager Garry Hill probably best remembered for his FA Cup giantkilling exploits with Dag & Redbridge.

Their last game vs Kiddy:
http://www.wokingfc.co.uk/news/article/3680/cards-share-spoils-in-entertaining-draw/

"The Cards made two changes to the side which started in the disappointing defeat at Gateshead on Saturday - Adam Doyle and Bradley Bubb replacing Mike Cestor and Loick Pires, who both dropped to the bench. The team lined up in the now familiar 4-5-1 formation, allowing Kevin Betsy and Gavin McCallum to push forward in support of lone striker Bubb whenever possible."

"Despite a goal looking as though it could come at any minute at either end, the referee brought this pulsating encounter to an end without any further addition to the scoreline and both teams looked exhausted as they trooped off the pitch."

Which perhaps gives some room for optimism after Gary Hill's comments in this audio interview after their 2-1 defeat at Gateshead

http://www.wokingfc.co.uk/news/article/3674/garry-hill-interview/ (worth a quick listen)

"Going into the match, Woking were the highest scorers in the Conference Premier but had also conceded more goals than any other team. On this performance, it was easy to see why. Excellent going forward and with a number of skilful players who can hurt the opposition, they can also look vulnerable when defending and prone to the occasional lapse in concentration. That said, they sit in eleventh place in the league with twenty-three points from eighteen matches and hopefully well on course for Garry's 'safety' target of fifty points. Keeping their key players fit will be of paramount importance as they approach the difficult winter period. It won't come much harder than Saturday's long trip to Grimsby."

Yes indeed!

WBA away in the FA Cup - they won 4-2 I think. Think he got an hat-trick 😯

What about that baldy winger who always looked ace when they were having their Cup runs? Can't remember his name, but I think he played for Woking?

Ah yes, that was a few years after the Albion game (96 ish?). He was quality and he was about 40 iirc.

Woking are a bit hit and miss this season. Last game I went to was against Dartford which was pretty dire. Defence can be dodgy at times with the midfield weakened since the bald headed one (can't remember his name) moved to a league club.  

I think if town can get at there defence pretty early they'll be there for the taking!

I think RS will make changes for this game - Miller and Thanoj in maybe. Who will be dropped is the question?

I'd forgotten Flasher played for them

I remember him ripping Town to shreds at Stamford Bridge when we first got promoted in the 80s but he went off the rails somewhere down the line and never fulfilled expectations at the time

Was Pearson at fault for any of the goals on Tuesday though?

Even if Miller had played I got the impression it wouldn't have changed anything as it was McKeown's blunder first, Brad's misjudgement second and Aswad's bad luck third, so not a central defensive issue

Agree with you just going off Scott criticizing "the whole back 4".
Just a wild guess, who knows what will happen...

Incorrect. You nearly got the number of goals right though so have a lollipop for that.


You fill up my senses,
Like a barrel of Tetley's,
Like a packet of Woodbine,
Like a good pinch of snuff,
Like a night out in Cleethorpes,
Like a greasy chip butty,
O, Super Black and Whites,
Come fill me again
Na na naa naa naa naaaa TOWN!!

Woking played some decent football, Did not have the killer finish though, Betsy and Bubb was not upto much for me, Town deserved the win, Maybe 5.1 did flatter us but lets be honest you was never in a million years get a 4.1 result at Blundell Park was you ?  


Grimsby and proud!

Sorry mate you're not a bad side.
But whatever you were trying to do it wasn't really "Woking"
