The section near IL2 is going to end up looking like that season under Allardyce when the pitch was practically a sandpit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easiest one sided game they’ll play this year Probably one of the hardest earned points they’ve had all season. They knew they’d been in a game.

mickbrown Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Just now, embankment said: Pitch will be completely replaced after the Pink gigs this summer. When works have been carried out previously , only the top 6" have been removed. This time they will remove down to 18" Get rid of 25+ years of worn out "stuff" ( technical phrase). The old lights are being binned off ( sold to another club not far away , who love anything/ one that's been connected to us). We have purchased a up graded ,improved , very impressive set of lights , from a nearby Premier League Club. So hopefully next season the pitch will be in a much better condition. 96% of the above is true . Be nice if they patched up the roofs too.

Burndens Bogs Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Momentums building, i can feel it in my watter. Back in the day under Armfield, Ian Greaves, Rioch, and Allardyce, you could feel it building. This feels similar, it’s coming together.

Members bolty58 Posted January 8, 2023 Members Share Posted January 8, 2023 Neither the result we wanted nor deserved (thanks to not being able to find a goal) but I remain convinced that a long unbeaten run (or close to) will be the feature of our next couple of months. As Bogsy said, you can just feel something building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big E Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 5 hours ago, barrycowdrill said: Bit of a tale about Today which I think is well worth relaying.. my old man’s bday on NYD which was a milestone birthday for him so decided to take him in to the LoV today. A couple of weeks ago off the cuff I decided to email Sharon (or what I assumed was her email address) explaining he was a lifelong ST holder etc etc and anything she could do / any time spent with him would make his day. A couple of weeks went by with nothing. Eventually this week received an email from someone else at the club stating Sharon had received and read the email and to arrange a meet with her this afternoon. so took the old man down to reception at 2:30 to meet the girl who emailed me as requested. Took us up to the chairman’s suite and we were stood outside for a while him still unsure as to what the hell was going on. Eventually Sharon comes out and apologises as she “couldn’t get away from sir Alex” and welcomed us both as though she’d known us for years. Bit of a chat ensued and he’s bowled over that she’s made the effort. He then apologises and says we have to make our way back round to the LoV to see the KO. Instantly she says No! “ I’ll find you seats in the exec box with me” shouts her laccy over and pretty much says they’re friends of mine, find them some seats to watch the match in the box. At HT come in to the chairman’s suite and we will have a brew. So ended up spending the whole game in her (distant) company, made us feel so welcome. Had more than enough time for us. it may have meant nothing to her in the grand scheme of things but will last my old man a lifetime. The woman is absolute class from top to bottom and I can’t imagine our club in better, more thoughtful or considerate hands. Did you mention the bit how he doesn’t go anymore so he can sit on his arse eating biscuits at work 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not essential but that grey brick affair at the main entrance needs painting or better still, cladding. It looks horrendous. Power wash wouldn't touch it.

barrycowdrill Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 For all of our build up and pressure we create very few clear cut chances. Kachunga where he hit the post late on I can sort of forgive as you’re talking centimetres but JDB’s pretty central 8 yards out with only the keeper to beat is criminal. Also Lee first have. He’s normally very good at those one touch finishes in to the corner when the balls coming across. Why try and take another touch!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radcliffe white Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 JDB effort was poor should’ve buried it not sure who it was think one of CBs side footed a shot just wide really should be hitting target kaxhungas chance suppose he hit the target tad unlucky johnston that header at the death for me was poor all great chances and 2 of them really should’ve en goals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted January 8, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted January 8, 2023 Morleys shooting from outside the box has been woeful recently. He's had a few sighters and barely trouble anything other than the pigeons. Needs to get some practice in with these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
