Re: Bishops stortford tonight
Yeah but we have had two months to get this sorted tbf and it been obvious where the gaps on the squad were.
Nothing to gaurentee that our #1 targets will be available in a week or two, we are waiting on Louis Dennis at Pompey but that looks very unlikely to happen now he has a squad number at Pompey. There are still dozens of club less players looking for clubs we are in a good position to move for players there will be plenty available who can enhance this team.
I was a little worried with Embletons slightly unconvincing "you would like to think so" response to Dave Victors will there be players coming in.

Re: Bishops stortford tonight
No, I'm certainly not interested in "nibbling" away at you. I was forlornly waiting to see if you were mature enough to admit you dropped a boll--k., instead of just making excuses.Lucky7 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 10:09 amI know you like to nibble CCH but try and take a decent bite zzzzzzChief crazy horse wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 9:43 amYes, and the bottom line is, you dropped a boll--k... A big one.![]()

Re: Bishops stortford tonight
Ross is not influencing much. Ling Snr is the top dog making all the decisions. If by some miracle Ross delivers on the pitch I for one will be mighty relieved. But I have to say I’m concerned for us this season and as we get closer to kick off my concerns are increasing. The non-appearance of key players and limited depth means we are totally reliant on a few key players. But tbf no different to last season and that went well enough. But we’ve moved up a level and with a weaker squad.Top of the West. wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 1:57 pm Yeah but we have had two months to get this sorted tbf and it been obvious where the gaps on the squad were.

Not having seen the current level in L2 it’s hard to judge how good or bad we are. We may be pleasantly surprised.

Re: Bishops stortford tonight
I did mention no different to last season in that we are reliant on a few key players. Same this season, but a higher level. I hope I’m pleasantly surprised this season too. Mid table will do nicely.Lucky7 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 4:51 pmIs this a copy and paste from season 2018/19?dOh Nut wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 4:33 pmRoss is not influencing much.

Re: Bishops stortford tonight
This is my hope too. Of course there will be plenty of physical players but in the main I expect there to be more football played than just muscle.

Re: Bishops stortford tonight
Unless there’s signings we are in for a dogfight, for sure. Macclesfield last season springs to mind, hopefully the same outcome too.

Agree, Ling snr must be pulling all the strings now. As good as being manager. No surprise really after promoting from within.dOh Nut wrote: ↑Wed Jul 24, 2019 4:33 pmRoss is not influencing much.

I'm still convinced we'll have a new Head Coach in long before Christmas .

Re: Bishops stortford tonight
The season starts in just over a week. There are injuries to important players, other players not looking good in pre-season against poor opposition, don't have settled formation or way of play and the team are lacking signings in key areas. I can't see this 'interim' experiment lasting very long.Lucky7 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2019 10:56 amThe way things are going?BiggsyMalone wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2019 10:54 amLong before October the way things are goingRedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 25, 2019 10:48 am
