  1. Dixon is one of the biggest issues for me

    I’m fact it’s absolutely crucial 

    He doesn’t inspire any confidence in those in front of him and you can see a huge difference in Santos et al without the likes of Gilkes and his organisation 

    He’s not a great stopper either for me

    We stop shipping soft goals early on and the whole games are reframed; the opposition can’t sit deep and frustrate us etc

    Makes my shit itch.

    We're fucking shit, we're fucking shit, we're fucking shit
    Do do do do fucking useless
    Eoin Doyle...he gets the ball and does fuck all

    Heard them all today : get in the fucking sea.

    Seems to be the case when we have large followings close to home sadly

    500-1k die hards a 100+ miles from home and you never (rarely) hear that shite

     

  3. WeWork valuation was mental. Built on sand

    set the trend for superior products like a industrious and Hana though 

    nice if you get a good deal and are a lonely sole trader/small co’ and want to socialise and/or to look ‘cool’

    get the right location and deal of it suits you and it’s a belter

    its not for me tho

    Not sure if this will be appreciated or not - I get the fact that these are young wannabee hardcore bwfc fans, who are a far stretch from the boys of the 70s/80s  (my lads in the middle of that lot!) but they are BWFC through and through and are the future. He’s already asking/telling me about the next 3 away games!!!

     

    We all start somewhere my friend. Go on the yoof, hope the lads had a belter and it keeps em coming back 👏🏼👏🏼

    Spot on Daz

    I can take losing, but not I can’t take losing because of a lack of effort. 

    Apologies to those who were stood on the extreme left hand side who were subject to my extended foul mouthed rant. But it was a bloody good rant all the same. Didn’t want it enough. Simple as that.

    High point was bumping in to the leather glove crew pre match, meeting @jules_darbyfor the first time and watching horses headbutt folk with @Casino

    Nice to see you mate 👍🏻
     

    Evatt needs to be v careful with his rhetoric post this

    We were a disgrace and he needs to fucking own it. Mr soundbite needs to have a word with himself 

  6. To be fair to Doyle for that chance from Kachunga…and yes he has to score it…as a lone man up top with the 2 wife men being so far from him, I’d give him a little justification/excuse that he’d ran his socks off that much his legs were like lead by then

    We look best when we get it wide and stretch them. just a little quality off winning.

    Also if we hold off til half time without switching off for their 2nd I think we win by 2 or 3

    We was saying about the orange warriors mobbing up in the away end, police at the bottom of WSL you men causing aggro? 

    Pretty sure they took a Bolton fan out of WSL cos the Cheltenham lot pointed him out as a wind up

  8. Felt we were bereft of confidence til we scored and then considering the team we had out except switching off for their 2nd we were decent 

    credit to the patched up team

    hes a soft sod at times but Kachunga has moments of real class. His 2 touch and then ball to Doyle for that chance was absolute top drawer.

    Pretty even game overall and 4 pts this week is decent but we could easily have had 6.

    Entertaining  game and I hope @MickyDenjoted his special coffee 😁

    I am too late then. I would have said an OLED one. I bought a 55” Philips 4k ambilight TV and its the dogs bollocks.

    Oled all the way for me.

    Aye, never mind. Cheers though pal

     

  10. Panicked and bought a Panasonic job as I saw a Black Friday sale this morning 🤣

    sure it won’t be the best but it’ll do

    thanks for the help anyway lads 👌🏻

    yes, they'll upgarde you to their new all singing dancing TV with sky built in so you'll no longer need the box

    idiot xx

    I am an idiot 😁

    Why does it need to be a smart TV out of interest?  Does sticking a 4K Firestick (£25 Black Friday deal) not do away with that requirement?

    Honestly…Want it all integrated cos nor got the inclination to learn about firesticks and all that jazz 😁

  13. Who was the expert with this, was it @HomerJay ?

    Homo, anyone else? We need/want a 60/65 inch telly for the lounge.

    What are we getting? Needs to be a smart TV and current but doesn’t have to be that fancy pants; we don’t do major gaming and all that shit.

    Just for watching Sky and that

    Cheers folks

    That was a shocking pass from Aimson to Thommason that but pressure on and caused the penalty. Althought i still can't see any foul.

    The players didn’t argue with the ref thigh; looked resigned to it.

    for the goal it’s shit all around. Starting with the short throw where we’re a man short; someone not doing their job poor from Baptiste and Dixon’s least at fault but he’s still not good enough IMO.

    Just read a few are saying it’s like the Neal season - I can’t really remember much about that, but we could be similar to 93/94 under Bruce - mid-table finish after promotion and stabilising.

    I know we had White Hot 2 and that so it must have felt more positive but our paper thin squad has been ruthlessly exposed; some of that is our own making and some is just bad luck. Dapo definitely papered over cracks earlier this season.

    Let’s just have a positive Jan and hope the 2nd half of the season builds us into next season and we keep the 3/4 strongest players so we go into 22/23 with momentum…

    I have just received this message from Neil’s daughter

    Hi Horwich, I know you’ve seen my Facebook post but I just thought I would let you know directly about my dads death. He died at home holding hands with my mum this afternoon at around 12.45. I’ll let you know about the funeral arrangements once we know so you can let the rest of ww know. Thanks so much for all your kind messages on ww, my mum and I have been reading them. Xx

    😔😔😔

    Awful news to hear. Glad that he was with his wife as he passed though.

    Much love & thoughts with all the Thompson family.

    Rest easy Neil & thanks so much for bringing me mates and memories 💙

    You said getting a better keeper was priority one

    I said bollocks

    You plough your lone furrow, but you're Mr wrong of wrongsville

    Good teams start from being solid at the back 

    We’re all over the gaff and have been for weeks

    said we’re not creating much last week and was also ridiculed for that 

    seems we can’t be improved 

    I’m glad to be so wrong all the time 

    Happy days

    I do think he’s good enough

    He’s commanding with the ball

    His distribution is excellent 

    His shot stopping is good

    He isn’t the problem Julie, far from it 

    Good for you

    I disagree (apart from the shot stopping)

    that is allowed you know

    we’ll see..

  18. Why does it always have to be labelled as ‘pinning the blame’ on someone on here if you don’t think they’re good enough for our aims?

    Dixon was a minor villain in the goal we conceded today but that doesn’t mean he should receive impunity from critique.

    Lets see where his career goes…

    Whereas Grandad has been spectacular in keeping them out when he's played!

    One shouts far more, one is more agile and doesn't appear to have aged a decade during the summer.

    We definitely need a leader in there, but that needn't be a keeper any more than a centre half.

    Not one of our team is completely commanding in his position, but that's just where we are at the moment. 

     

    I’m not clamouring for Gilkes back in, I’m saying there are similarities between now and early last season when Crellin was in.

    However, Imo Dixon is a non-league standard keeper. You may not agree but I’m not for shifting on that unless he improves 🤷🏽 Soz

    Jesus Julie I held you in a higher regard than pointing at the keeper

    I’m not ‘just’ pointing at the keeper am I?
    Look at my previous posts as a whole

    Let’s not get it our of context

    That’s what Casino would like though

    As that’s how he argues on here 

    I don’t think he’s good enough if we want to hit the top end of League 1

    Thats where we’re aiming right?

    If we don’t get there I’m hardly ripping up my ST, but it’s worth a comment 

    If you disagree fine, tell me why?
