No Mcatee!!!!!

Bapaga starting and on the bench ?!

Reckon the Bapaga in the starting is meant to be McAtee.

Bapaga starts, mcatee on the bench

Twitter now shows McAtee on the bench. Maybe not fully fit or Hurst wants to rest him. You can understand the decision I think. McAtee has expended huge amounts of energy in the first 5 games and has played almost every minute of every game.

LJL on the bench also.

Looks like some natural squad rotation, wonder if Max Wright was dropped for LJL on the bench or he's injured again.

More importantly I am in my seat in the Pontoon wearing my lucky socks and pants, having had a pre match meal at usual lucky pub, followed by parking near the ground and a walk to the pier and back, followed by a lucky shake from McD's. What can go wrong?

I thought McAtee was a little below par the other night so probably a well-deserved rest. Would be nice to be able to bring him on for 20 minutes or so at the end with the game already safe!

Just your socks and pants?

I note Hurst's favorite boy LJL is back in contention I wonder who will have to make way from what was a superb line up to let him in.Afraid this would happen.

Couldn't make the game due to a work commitment so will have to settle for listening to the radio but I did wear the red 3rd kit shirt today under my work clothes. We won every game where I wore the red shirt, it was in the wash when we faced Stockport so I wore a home shirt I have from a couple seasons ago and we drew that one. I'm not going to mess with a lucky streak. It also helps it's a really nice shirt.  

No Max Wright ???

He’s on the bench. And he’s one of of our only 2 striker wtf did you expect

Stop whinging

I think you're losing the plot if you genuinely think that.

Anyone got a radio link, seems to have changed again

John Fenty is here. How he dares to show his face

Can’t find a radio link

Quoted from 137

I think you're losing the plot if you genuinely think that.

Someone is going to have to make way for LJL Unless they are going to let us field 12 players that is

I can't find the radio link.  Radio Humberside says it's on the BBC Sports site and BBC says Humberside!

Nothings working for me either , I’m abroad so I’m not sure if that makes a difference but it worked on Humberside for all the other games this season

I get the arithmetic.

It's the idea that PH is prone to picking favourites - you don't get a team spirit like ours with a manager like that.

The other implication - that LJL wouldn't be picked except for favouritism - is laughable.
A fully fit LJL would be a huge asset to any side in this league - including us.

Thanks for the help with link folks 👍

It seems outside the UK the Town game isn't appearing as an option.  My dad is also trying to listen abroad and the same is happening to him when he clicks the link.

I am abroad, and also had trouble seeing it, but it suddenly appeared when I started my VPN-service.

It must be geographical for where you are as it's the first link on the top of the page in Grimsby.

Goaaaal Get in

Yes 1-0

Ira Jackson opens his account for Wealdstone

Efete

1-0

YES!!

Efete’s a goal machine.

Great time to score - half time talk in different tone

Great towering header unchallenged for Efete. It's been hard for us to get going a bit today, Eastleigh frustrating us, and forcing us to pass it back and try again. Eastleigh not really done much to trouble us, though they did appeal for a penalty.
Oh and I like the "your a shi*t Jack Grealish" chant aimed at their midfielder!!

Lets hope for a few more second half

It is. Wondered if it was just mine.

GOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLL

Get in!

GOAL! Been much more exciting since McAtee came on

Get innnnn

What a hit. Beautiful !

Crowd loud 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Sounds like a great atmosphere again.

The support in the past 7 days has been something else

I applaud you all 👏🏼 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Fox in the box 🤙

Quoted from KingstonMariner

Thought it was 29 away

It is. I counted them.

9th different scorer this season that’s a sign of a promotion outfit

Great game fantastic atmosphere, what is there not to like.

Come on Town.

13 goals and 9 different scorers........so far!

We dont need another striker do we?

Wonder what odds on McKeown scoring this season?

Quoted from dapperz fun pub

Good point - spreading it around a bit is a good sign.  Are they creating a lot of chances today?  

Quoted from WayneBurnettsJockstrap

Wonder what odds on McKeown scoring this season?

According to the commentary last week, he did around Xmas with mrs Pearson

Never got on but nice to se another scorer.  What a team.

Just got to where we're staying in North Yorks. DAB radio reception was crap in the car and managed to load up WiFi. Absolutely bloody brilliant 2 - 0 up, come on Town going up and win our outstanding game we'll be top.

If either we score another, or Daggers let another one in, then we could be 2nd in the table.

The guy on BT sport just said we haven't started a season 6 unbeaten for 31 years. Great joy.
Mrs Buckstown then said "Eastleigh?? Are they a proper team?" Very harsh

She does have a point though!

Quoted from WayneBurnettsJockstrap

Think we need the Daggers to get an equaliser, get Wrexham under a bit more pressure

Penno!

Oooooooh sodomist

Whats he doing going for a corner of the net? Hit it down the middle like a rocket

another 3 points keeps the preasure on the rest . Slowly but steadley moving up the league

sodomist. goal differance could mean a lot at the end of the day

Another good result. Cracking stuff.

Quoted from denni266

This, at this time in the season, and given the form we're in, must rank in the top 1 dumbest posts I've seen on the Fishy.

Yet another solid win and good to get a clean sheet, defence sounded really solid today and we have a bunch of players scoring and creating chances. We've dealt with all thrown at us so far, don't know if Maidenhead will be ready to face this team or the invasion of away fans.

So is your reply

Quoted from denni266

He’s a point though Philippe will upstage with some waffle

I don’t know about goal difference but I reckon 90 points won’t be enough for the title this season , the way the top 4 are playing there’s a massive gap between those clubs and the rest I reckon

Quoted from Bristol Mariner

He’s a point though Philippe will upstage with some waffle

He probibly will  . But i was not having a winge or a dig in any way , just stating a fact  . I am more than happy with things  and how they are going . Suppose that someone will not be happy with me being happy  :(

Bloody hard league to win promotion from. The likes of stockport and southend with points to make up. Glad we've had a good start

I'm not that sort of person - life's better when you have happy people around you. I felt you  were looking for a negative...which is very understandable
for any longtime Town fan.

I should have phrased it less judgementally. Enjoy the evening.

Nice for our past custodian to be there today to see a full house and a victory  ;D

That poor excuse for a man has some round things  coming to see what we now have .. hope he had two checks with him , one for 400grand and one for 200 grand . everyone should have walked out when he appeared . We did not want you running your personal play thing  and we dont want you coming to watch either ,  Cant imagine what Hurst thought seeing his ex sat there

So much positivity about our club at the moment but being a long term Town fan I know how fast it can all change. I so want to believe that this could be our season but I’m so scared of being disappointed again.

I'm glad he was there to see what can be achieved when things are done right.

It doesn't take football fortune, it takes making the right decisions and treating the fans the right way.

Today would have shown him what he could have had.

Boris is doing about as good a job with running the country as Fenty did with running Town.

Imagine shaking that girl privates hand…makes you realise just how stupid some folk are…

A bit disjointed today but we’ve been spoilt so far this season…

Two great goals. Warm in NE Lincs in mid September, 3 points and 6000 home fans. Loved it.

Didn’t hear any children swearing though so that spoiled it a little  8)

It’s amazing how willingly people will demonstrate that they have no idea what socialism, communism and Marxism are and the differences between them.

….,Or social democracy

Socialism?  National Socialist shortened to Nazi. 1/2 Nazi?
Communism? Overthrew a democracy that had overthrown the Tzar, then shot them in a cellar, and trumpeted to the world what fine fellows they were ?
Marxism? The theory put into practice that gives Venezuala 1 million % inflation, makes Cubans get into leaky boats to escape to the USA, and East Europeans come over by the million to pick spuds in the UK as their economies are still blighted by the very rubbish system you hanker for.

Will that do?

Quoted from WesternMariner

Well, you are quite right, however, I didn't see you complain about earlier comments. A kind of choosey " eff all" is it?

If you equate Nazism with socialism you clearly know nothing. The ‘socialist’ in NSDAP was just a meaningless word by the time Hitler led the party. They purged the country of real socialists.

Ah well, you're splitting hairs, whilst I take the Broad Brush approach.
Nazis were anti-Semitic, as are Socialist's /Communists /Whatever -ists in the UK (Corbynists and his merry mob, who Starmer backed as the leader, remember?)
Do you not find the parallel a little disturbing? You should

It is not hairsplitting to point out that people use words to give a false impression. East Germany called itself the German Democratic Republic, and we’re certainly not democratic. Is this concept too difficult for you to understand?

The fact that some people in the Labour Party are anti Semitic does not mean that socialists are any-Semitic. Some Tories are. Some LibDems are.

Now run along and try to learn something before trying to be clever. I’m not going to waste any more time on you.

Its simple any country with the words Democratic/Peoples or State in its title is usually effectively a dictatorship of some kind, (Note the US is states)

I thought this was the Eastleigh match thread?

Quoted from Les Brechin

It was, some people are getting bored with winning already :-)

Bore off with all your political chit chat… this is a bloody football forum, to discuss, rant, celebrate all things FOOTBALL and GTFC! How many bloody threads get dominated by utter drivel that has absolutely nothing to do with football!!

Only on the Fishy will you get a Match thread during an unbeaten start to a season  that hasn’t been bettered for 30 odd years transcend into a debate on National Socialism , it’s a mad house on here  ;D

What’s happening. I thought this was a football club forum
