Quoted from MarinerWY


we got got out fought by a mid table side yesterday coached by a gas mains layer who to be fair to him got the tactics right and motivated his team


And two days before that we also beat one of the other main play-off contenders...[/quote]

By playing the same tactics as the gas mains layer? It works, if you are away from home the onus is on the home side to perform and if they struggle a bit they get frustrated and you tend to get a bit more room for the breakaways. It will be interesting to see what happens against Macc on the back of their two losses. If they come with gas mains layer tactics I fear we won't have the nous to combat it.

We are 4/1 for promotion (third favourites) which means there's a 1 in 5 chance we will go up, better odds than rolling a dice and needing a 6.

Quoted from Abdul19


The results against Southport and Altrincham suggest we also have a small crowd syndrome

We win... everyone happy
We lose...everyone unhappy

That's football

When you look at things from a neutral point of view it's amazing what you see - I saw Hull batter Leicester on Sunday on MOTD and they just couldn't score; I would say they were very unlucky; calls for Bruce to be sacked on RH are utterly ridiculous

I wouldn't say we battered Lincoln, far from it, but we had enough chances to score goals. Because we are not neutral when it comes to GTFC we all get really hacked off, fed up and lash out.

Fine lines and all that....

Never thought we'd win the league (as from about end September) and for that reason will be delighted with a play off place based on squad we have, particularly lack of goals.

As Hurst said the other day there will be several very good Conference sides not getting in play offs in what is a very competitive year.
So to match what the leaders are doing over 10 games is not good enough for a title challenge but very good for a play off place.

Taken from GT...if true!

"But the home form continues to be inconsistent and is the reason why the Mariners are behind Barnet in the table. Seven wins from 14 home matches isn't great going – and take out the seven goals against Alfreton and we've netted just 16 from 13 matches, not enough to win matches."

I honestly believe that for a non league team we have a pretty decent side but for the goal scoring/strikers... see above and I rest my case
Back 5 as good as any (if not the best) in league; midfield/wide men are better as a group than last season; front players - no predators/natural goalscorers (Hannah OK, but he's not a great footballer IMO and that's why he doesn't get in).

Allowing for the fact Pittman had a very good game (apart from finishing) v Lincoln I'd be tempted to start with Watson v Macc. Why not? The lad has a great goal scoring record and he might be the natural scorer who changes our season around.
He can't contribute much less than others apart from LJL

No idea what he`s like in training but time methinks to start Watson with the shop or if injured  Pitman and see how it goes,
