Re: National league play-offs

I will be pleased for whichever of the two ex League clubs makes it back in, but I so hope it’ll be County, for would seem really tough on them not to return given the number of points they amassed. Will actually be driving down Meadow Lane tomorrow (Andre Rieu concert in Nottingham), so will defo g...

Re: Brian Winston

Sad to hear the news, RIP Brian, and thanks for everything you did for our club.

He was chairman when I was a kid, and oversaw us steer away from financial disaster, to the old Division Three title under Jimmy Bloomfield, and within a whisker of making it to the top-flight. Top guy.

Re: The M11 derby is back on!

Closest game for me, and have seen us win there a few times over the years.

Pity Ipswich went up, that one would have appealed - though I'll take that back if it means we land El Miz.

Re: Vigs

I obviously hope he stays, excellent keeper and big personality too. Do recall we thought he’d gone (Lincoln was strongly rumoured) when his last contract was up two years back, and I was somewhat surprised when he re-signed for us somewhat later in the window than the others who stayed. So can’t ru...

Re: 6 years ago

From the despair under FB, to this, it has been an amazing journey to where we are now, and is forever part of all of us. Out of the nightmare emerged Travis & Teague, and our support felt stronger and deeper than it had been previously, I guess we were all galvanised by events. It feels like we...

Re: Ratings

Thanks for ratings, pretty much agree. The performance showed the depth & spirit of the squad I thought, great to see the likes of Thommo out there and given the captain's armband too. Felt Sadlier was doing more tracking back than I'd noticed before, which RW has no doubt encouraged, he looked ...

Re: Will We Be Able to Keep Our Best Players

I seem to recall RW saying when he signed an extended contract that he wanted to demonstrate to the players he is going nowhere and hoped that the ones he wanted to stay will follow his example. Think there was also talk of L1 contracts being prepared back then for if we went up, so hopefully a lot ...

Re: Did Richie Wellens reach legend status today?

He was one of the guests on the EFL Show, and made the point that when he signed an extended contract part of that was giving him a competitive budget for L1, in the (then) expectation of promotion. I don’t think any manager can never say never, but he has caught a cold elsewhere and has the backing...

Travis & Teague

I remember walking to the car from a Norwich pub post a work’s do in the summer of 2017, when two mates simultaneously texted me that Nigel Travis had taken over, with Kent Teague of course, and I just had the instinctive feeling from the devil we’d got the Messiahs and that everything would be ok –...

Re: Maximum possible points

Latest position - 5 for guaranteed promotion, 8 for guaranteed Champions Agree. As of now Stevenage and/ or Northampton could reach 88 points, so we need 89 to be sure of the title, which is another 8 points. Only Stevenage, Northampton and Bradford City can get more than 85 points, but the latter ...

Re: Ratings

Thanks for the ratings. A good team performance. But for Hunt & Vigs they would have had at least a couple of goals, so I’d give MoM to Hunt, thought he was superb. There was something not working down our left side defensively, they were too often causing us issues there. But we could and shoul...

Re: Just 5 points needed

No one has mentioned Bradford City … I think at this point we need a maximum of 7 points to be mathematically certain to take it beyond goal difference, but it could be less depending where we get the points … Stevenage win all 7 remaining games they end up on 90 points. Carlisle win all 6 remaining...
