Guiseley at home would be the dream draw: winnable and a bit of a grudge match because of the Bignot connection

I'm not sure if 'the dream draw' is something of an overstatement.

Don't count our chickens


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.

The last time we played Guiseley at BP is the most frustrating game I can remember.

I remember that one. Early Jan I think, they scored with their one and only shot from about 35 yards in the first half then tried every trick in the book to kill the game.

Podge scored late on to draw the game I seem to recall but it was, as you suggest, incredibly frustrating.

Despite coming up against it so often, we never got the hang of games like that in the Conference.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

Wasn’t that the game where Hurst coined the term “spoilt” on RH?

I personally find this "fruit loop" tag given to him a bit unfair......passion would be where I would put it.....and who knows where it would have taken us.


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

Back to the National League........ I’m amazed you can confuse utter bull sh1t with passion.

He just cane out with cliche after cliche in an attempt to be the manager he wanted us to believe he was.

Blame John Fenty for the fruitloop tag. That’s what he described him as in the Fenty Tapes.

Not even the biggest cliché of them all, the taking the players down the docks so they'd see how lucky they are or something, saved him from the boot!

I doubt Guiseley at home would be a televised game. Guiseley away could be though.

I'm amazed people attach so much weight to what managers say in press conferences. It's what they say to the players that matters by far the most, mainly behind closed doors.

Depends on the other fixtures. Don't forget the BBC show 9 games "live", it's very likely it would at least make that?
