I also supported Palmer when he was here as did Chingford Red, but we were in the minority and got our fair share of flack for it.
I just liked him as a real honest trier and thought his finishing would improve with experience. I notice those on here who put him down all the time made no mention of him last week when he scored 2 against us.

Good second half, all the ball without creating too much, draw was a fair result.

Sadly , the main reason is we lost JE . We'll end up having to bring in an experienced manager anyway so why not do it now . It will give the new manager time to sort us out .

If we're smart we've been doing some discreet but extremely thorough homework on potential replacements. If we're bleedin' daft we've decided to leave Ross in charge until it becomes absolutely necessary to can him and bring in a replacement. My opinion only and counts for noubt but I just don't see Ross cutting it. I know that he's a reasonably decorated coach but he doesn't exude authority, calmness, leadership and nous. You don't have to have been a great player to be a great manager but if you weren't you need to generate the respect and authority some other way and I don't get the sense that anyone is particularly in awe of Ross Embleton.

After listening to Nigel and Kent , my guess is it would be the former. I would like to think they have two or three people already in mind but we might have to hit 24th spot first .

The goal was . Worth watching the highlights for it alone. Their keeper swivels around whilst on the floor and kicks it into his own net

Play a nice possession style game that suits this league more than the NL but we can be frustrating on the eye because long spells of possession often lead to very little. Impressed how we never gave up in search of the equaliser today though. Hope Brophy/Coulson injuries aren’t too serious as they’re key.

Literally throws it into his own net, only the second craziest GK moment against us though... that honour still goes to the Sutton keeper with the keepy-uppy attempt

Lets just hope we don't have the same result at home to Salford as last season.
