Each season I've been going (from 1985) I've never really expected much as I knew since we won the Southern Premier things would be stacked against us. In that I mean our attendances, our ground, limited funds, lack of staff and so on. On top of that we had teams like Barnet, Wycombe, Stevenage, Linco...
I would be rather upset at the apparent lack of a public statement by the owners/board standing by, and backing, me despite a month or so of criticism on this board and Saturday's events at the Havant match. There may well have been private messages of support, but I don't think I have missed a public me...
Better late than never then (much like our striker recruitment policy hopefully - Ed) is the Bonus Ball result v Grimsby Town. The winner was Barry Oakley with winning ball number 48. Well done Barry, you win £60. Thanks to everyone who took part especially the S****horpe supporting family in the bar...
- 18 players on contract, more than ever. - appointing a mute, ineffectual player as captain. - signing three "strikers" on inflated wages and then not even playing them. - playing your best player, still top scorer, and general attacking threat of goals from midfield in 6 different posi...
I think most regulars know my opinion. However, genuinely interested to hear others opinions, positive and negative, as to what the delay is with making the right decision? Poor results, poor performances, and a lack of players out foremost, and in (Lee the exception, but as a loan turned into a sign...
I see that the Stoke player, Geoff Cameron's red card has been rescinded earlier this afternoon. This was for an alleged push on West Brom's Claudio Yacob, who fell down somewhat theatricality and started to roll over on the ground. As for now, l have not heard of the FA taking any action against Yacob f...
Barry did a great job to prepare and get the pitch playable after such terrible conditions. We may wish we had been spared our second half performance, but it was still a good game and (grr) almost a joy to watch a striker who knows where the goal is. To demonstrate how good that pitch was yesterday, did...

A critical member of the team to the extent where he strolls (literally) back into the side for Carlisle at home, our biggest game and opportunity of the season. Unused sub in last three games (including Dover away abandoned). I don't think he is good enough, but the management need to make their mind u...
I was interested to see in yesterdays programme that Barry wants our views on how to run the club I have have some questions for them 1/ are you looking for a new manager? 2/ do you have sufficient funds avaliable to stave off relegation? 3/ are you happy with relegation to the Con South? 4/ are you activel...
We need lots of Cup replays from the 3rd round onwards because 5 per cent of each of the replays' gate money is set aside for the non-league clubs who were in the 1st round proper. Could be a nice bonus in May.
looking at the matches to come, and taking a realistic view of the results, I estimate we'll be struggling to make it to 40 points, with perhaps +45 needed for survival it's already looking like a daunting task. Any thoughts?
Stating the obvious, but if we are to stay in this league and keep, and possibly improve, our attendances we need a goalscorer. Yes, they don't come cheap (from whatever level) but the consequences of not having one will be far more costly. It seems to me that we have the players to supply a striker with t...
Just a reminder that the first quiz night of the year will be this Friday 8th Jan in the Wings Bar. Ken and Rod will be hosting the quiz which will start around 7.30pm.
I note that Hockaday has left Kidderminster today. That means almost every club at the bottom of the table has had a change of manager and/or players in recent months, bar one. When are we going to do something about this. How long do we wait until its too late and even Pep wouldn't be able to bail us out.
.....not far away.....playing well.....win is just around the corner (long corner isnt it!)....always creating chances....new player or players coming in ...attack minded....errr doesnt sound like a striker....pressure....no pressure....if we were not playing well then there would be p...
....rejoins Torquay from Dover, and the rumour was that Tyrone Marsh was going to Dover - sounds a bit wide of the mark, but you never know. I think we had better get a wiggle on if we are going to sign any players half decent.
