Arsenal of the Conference??

[Alan W (GNFC)]

Well, that is our 6th 1-0 win this season, after all!!

 

Seriously, though, it makes a change from many previous seasons where 1 goal would hardly ever win us a game and demonstrates the importance of building from the back.

They obviously are impressed on the R&D forum.

Just lifted this:-

 

"Sodje was excellent for them and young Coleman looked like one for the future. The lad alongside Hawkins was also very strong at the back and we never really tested the keeper apart from Jacko's shot and their defender's slice which he saved well. With players to come back, I think Daish will get them into the play-offs."

 

Praise indeed.

 

I can see why they wanted LD as first choice and had to settle for a poor 2nd best in Westley.

Just as well the Club didn't heed calls from you and many others on here for Daish's head, then.

[Hempstead Gaz]

Perhaps LD listened to, and acted upon our complaints from last season.

He certainly appears to have learned from last year's mistakes.

[Hirsty]

So it's all down to you then CG ? Well done !!

 

 

[Hempstead Gaz]

I'm sure WVN and Riverview Red will take some of the plaudits as well.

 

Happy new year

[Hirsty]

God preserve us !!!

 

Happy New Year !

 

Cheers,

On the other hand perhaps he just got rid of the players who weren't up to playing in the conference regardless of whether some fans thought that their status was such that they should not have been let go.

Interestingly, of all the players that we shed at the end of last season, not one is playing at our level this season, and only two, including Mark Rawle, are playing only one step further down.

David, are you suggesting that Liam knows more about football than C.G., W.V.N. and R.R. put together?

[David Holden]

You might think that, but I couldn't possibly comment.

[Riverview Red]

Of course he knows more than us - that's why he's manager and we are just sad twats who post on this forum !

 

I love the 1-0's - keep em coming LD !

[Riverview Red]

Yup!

It is probably more to do with the fact that to continue to prefer to be a part-time professional is becoming more and more difficult at Conference level. In fact it would be virtually impossible for a Jimmy Jackson type to play for another club within the Conference because of geographical location. After all LD did try to keep some of last year's squad if they would agree to become full time. It wasn't therefore simply a case of brilliant decision making on his part at all. It was often taken out of his hands by the circumstances of the players in question.
