Quoted from sydney
it’s all about these first 6 or so games


Rubbish!  It's about the season as a whole!  I will be well happy if we finish the season in a reasonable position in League 2, absolutely delighted if we get into the play-offs and if we finish in the bottom half of the League but still stay up, I will be happy.

I always find it strange when people say this kind of thing. Must mean that you support your club but don’t actually like to see football being played at the highest level of skill and pace. Personally I love the game itself even more than my club.



Also the diving,cheats the falling down as if there was a sniper in the stand unfortunately it spreading to the lower divisions one thing I can say about GTFC players I honestly believe would not consider to be cheats unlike many teams in the lower division that I have seen many teams last season at BP can I just say I have watched football since 1962 and was sat a Wembley in 1966 when money did not rule football

Only that we have beaten them last 3 times out and some fans might be expecting a home banker win, this will not be the case
if we do well 1st 6 games its a massive boost in confidence for all of us and a solid base for the rest of the season
generally teams that start well go onto do well for the season

For me, the most important thing about the forthcoming season will be news (one way or another) about the new ground. We can have reasonable success on the pitch, but we NEED to move forward off it. MJ has definitely given us a buzz. Good news on the ground front would be the icing on the cake. I’d settle for top half with a mini cup run to boost the coffers, a shovel planted to actually start the new stadium and Dembele earning a huge sell on at end of season.  Should I be drinking Carlsberg??


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Did you complain when Cardwell did the most blatant dive ever away at Swindon to win us a penalty?

I for one will not going watch any Premiership teams at home or away I have no time at all for the lot of them can’t remember the last time I watched any of them on tv to be fair the England semi was the first match I had watched in the World Cup so not for me


I would pay to see the look on their managers face when we beat them,

Quoted from Les Brechin


I don't think so. Not whilst I've been going anyway I don't think.

The reason I'm fairly sure about this is that 4th August is my birthday and it's the first time that there has been a league game on my birthday.


Last year v Chesterfield was only 2 days later on 6th August. I remember because the win was a very nice birthday present for me!
Hope yours is as happy this year Les! 😀

I missed so many games over the years through work, being an exile, taking kids to clubs, swimming, camping, running junior football teams etc. that I feel I am catching up on lost time somewhat.
Loved my weekend in the Cotswolds to end the season on a high and see no reason not to be optimistic with preparations so far.

Carpe Diem and Gerrintoum!

I have no expectations this season.......I'm no expert on systems/formations but I can slightly see what Jolley is trying to do, let's just hope he has got the players to bring it off.


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

I personally cant wait for the 4th,my expectations are so so at best, I think we will have a far better season than last without really threatening the top 7,which for me is ok because its a case off slowly slowly catchy monkey, we've got to understand that as far as budgets go we are no where near the biggest , but I am impressed with what MJ has brought to the club so far ,matched with the players that he got playing so well at the end off last season we have to have optimism,
As the some saying that the Slade/fenty effect has soured there desire ,well those times have gone,yes Fenty is still there but he has thankfully taken a backward step from the limelight(were he should remain) . I go to BP to cheer on my team I don't give a fook who sits in the directors box while the game is on and wont cut my own nose off to spite my face so come a week Saturday I will as ever drive the 106 mile round trip as I do every home game to continue riding  the roller coaster that is a GTFC.Now put your hatred for Fenty to one side forget the nightmare that was Slade and Wilkinson(wa@kers) and get behind the lads, because you never know it could turn out brilliant and then you will feel like a proper twit if you've missed out.UTFM
