These continuous "scotch egg" references are getting very boring.


Indeed they are.

The fans asked for better food in the survey. They got better food.

Absolutely correct and rightly so.

However: Docks are currently selling packs of 12 Pettits sausages at £9 (£0.75 per sausage). Yesterday they were charging £4 for a sausage bun in the fanzone for two sausages in a bun. I know the fuel bills have gone up but £2.50 to cook and bread two sausages - really?! 50p for cheese as well and 30p (7% increase) on Clap Fish in a week. We all wanted better food but I don’t think we wanted the urine taking out of us as well.

It's footy ground food tho, I assume with rents for the place in the Fanzone so the club also makes money.

You can easily pay four quid for a excrement pukka pie at some grounds. £2 for Mars bars etc.

It’s football, sh1t like celebrating in front of opposition fans happens all the time.

I was at the Bromley away game for example and some of the fans were giving plenty of abuse to their manager and players. If you give it out, you have to be able to take it.

And also, beef between clubs is also why we love the game, as it adds excitement and is a talking point.

No need to take to Twitter to call opposition players out. It strikes me as naive from the CEO and perhaps shows a bit of inexperience in footballing circles.


Up The Mariners!

Frankly I find that a bit embarrassing. What on earth does she think she is doing.

To me, that now feels like 9 points dropped to them, when our top executive cannot resist in biting the bait. And here was me thinking that we were the fishing experts.

The true victory in all of this nonsense, would have been keeping quiet and letting him make himself look arrogant. Not going t i t for tat with the fella.

Disappointed

Indeed they are but do Scotch eggs count as a meal or are they a snack and must you sit down to eat them?

There should also be a happy medium. £6 for a sausage sandwich is scandalous.

Investment on the pitch is all that matters... The rest is just a distraction.  The last time we really invested in the team was when Alan Buckley was manager after he came back from West Brom...  The likes of Groves, Donavon, Smith, Nogan and Burnett etc. were brought in and success was attained that year with promotion back to the championship...   If we could invest in the team you have to ask yourself:  "Do we have the right manager to do the job'... and then you have to build that team with permanent signings with decent contracts to keep it together while you are rebuilding....  Build a team the right way even if it takes a year or two..  Put some solid foundations into it and stop all these loans...

She’s not sticking up for me.

We were well beaten in the end by a team that knew their jobs and played to their strengths while our supposedly more experienced manager made a very strange decision about a substitution.

They clearly felt disrespected for some reason and they put it right, we need to do the same on Tuesday night.


I can't remember a strange substitution, which one was that?
