The whole point of soaking up pressure and hitting on the break (dope on the rope in boxing) is you are not going to make many chances but when you do you need pace to hurt the other side and finishing to punish your opponent.

We have neither to be brutally honest.

We have a gaffer with a super brain,

Sadly we have players who do not,

If we can get a few of them in we will have a super team,

Until then we win a few we lose a few more.

At least we don't have to go to Braintree.

Quoted from devs


I read the other day Blackburn (Championship) are sniffing around a striker from Nuneaton (bottom of Conf North) - that's what GTFC need to be doing; thinking outside the box and getting a non league striker with potential to the club



It makes no sense that we've not attempted (or appeared to at least) to do this, seeing as Bogle scored a load of goals and was sold for a healthy profit.

Liam Hearn springs to mind.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Bignot actually gave it a shot to be fair, could've worked out under different circumstances (not being managed by Slades, being arsed, not living in Birmingham, not being made of glass, that sort of thing)

And the Anthony Limbrick has managed at that level

I wouldn't expect them to pubilicise it


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Maybe the manager is a clever chap but the people above him seem determined to carry on running a regressive football club.
