I bumped into Dale Vince not too long ago, and got talking to him for about 15 mins, he seemed to be a decent chap to me, you can tell he has a lot of ideas and I think he genuinely means well with all his green stuff and he does genuinely care about the earth, but also I got the impression he has a massive ego and he rather thinks of himself very highly, he does genuinely care about FGR (Probably to drive his own wgo) but its all going wrong currently

I don't think there's any guarantee's as to who will stay in the bottom two or get dragged into it.  But I'm pretty sure we don't need to worry about us getting caught

I can only ask again, what have you seen in the last two months that makes you think we're in danger?


Our defensive frailties coupled with the spending power of clubs below us. Also, I am a terrible pessimist sometimes, must be all the drugs I am on.

A couple of wins will no doubt have me moving away from the darkside.😎

Fair enough Ron, I think supporting Town is a natural deflater and definitely brings an err to the side of caution.

But we're just as likely to improve as those below us.  Personally I don't think it's as much about improving quality for us as it is producing consistency.    Sutton, FGR, Salford...they all to improve their quality and introduce consistency too.  Then hope they can catch sides up.

True. I think Saturday's game is huge. A win and we are moving closer to the mid table pack and most likely extending our cushion over the bottom two. A defeat could mean we are at least six and possibly as many as eight points away from 18th place. That is quite a gap and places us firmly in the bottom six, two of who will go down.  

I do think we need new faces in the back four. We have one already, a couple more would be very welcome.

as for FGR, I wouldn't be surprised if Ted Lasso was on the shortlist.

Steve Cotterill appointed new FGR boss. That’s a pretty good appointment for them, and a vast improvement on Deeney, although I don’t think he pulled up many trees at Shewsbury and Birmingham.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

Plenty of trees to tear up on Forrest Green

Not a bad appointment on the face of it, could be too little too late and I imagine things could get sour given his Cheltenham links.

Did a really good job at Shrews, just soured a bit towards the end of last season with a excrement run but still finished 12th.  I bet they would take that now.

From a FGR perspective I can't think of many better appointments, certainly someone capable of coming in and getting a bounce.
