Those 80’s crowds I’d imagine were just down to the overall state of country at the time. It would have been peak time when Thatcher had frankly helped close down nearly everything up and down country, people were probably very worried on the finances, plus football was a very angry and unsafe...

On paper Scunthorpe should win their game, I’m just interested in attitude and whether that plays into Boston’s hands, they have now had 3 back to back dogfight win or bust games and know how to handle pressure situations…….can Scunthorpe with a large expectant crowd? When the pressure was on...

And the there were four…… Play off semis: Scunthorpe vs Boston Brackley vs Chorley Thoughts??

That big chance at the death would have been very cruel on your lot because it was caused by a very tired Chorley player slipping, but you have to take that opportunity if given. I more so looked at that massive chance early in second half for us when we put in a cross and Spencer I think it...

Damn out we go. Could not really have done anymore, restricted the second top scorers to frankly one good chance, dominated large spells of the game but the harsh reality for us is that killer play in the final third is our difference between being 7-9th and 1st-3rd. We got our gameplan spot on...

Should have again won it in extra time has been mostly all curzon, but they missed an absolute sitter with 4 minutes to go and now it’s pens. Hard to say here but really we have no one but ourselves to blame if fail now we had 2 glorious chances and failed both

Should have won this game been the much better side. But it’s 0-0 because we have dominated large spells of the game but lack that quality final ball or touch which Chorley probably have………but they cannot get ball near enough or long enough in our half to use it. Think we look badly injured at...

Even first half so far we played very well, actually did what I hoped and came out having a go and we’re on top first 29 minutes but Chorley been on top last 20 minutes only one real good chance each so far…..think both sides trying to have a go but neither wanting to fully commit or gamble...

I agree and that is my fear, I expect us to play you same as we played Scunthorpe and South Shields who play very similar styles and we grabbed 10 points from 12 there…….try to keep possession and defend in the first half and grow into the game during the second with a lot of reliance on holding...

It won’t affect anything but for the betting people carlie have been shocking this season apart from away at Portsmouth, away at Barnsley, away at Bolton, away at Peterborough……a little trend.

Personally I think this is a very tough one for curzon, the clubs know each other quite well, played each other a lot, usually a tough place to go but we did thump them 3-0 there a few seasons back…….usually we fare much better vs Chorley at our ground and them at their ground. All depends on...

So the other game tonight Chorley vs Curzon Again thoughts?

Crikey that was bloody hard work to get through when only having to listen and able to go on the computer, feel sorry for them stuck watching it and adding in the nerves!!!! Don’t know what it is with Alfreton’s sheer ability to make games awful. Both Brackley and Curzon are both of a similar...

Tried to listen in to game tonight but it’s been shocking.

Meant to say for tonight I personally felt Alfreton would win this as they are good at home and Boston have not delivered last few games. Then Alfreton tonight put up a madcap post saying how they have not lost at home in months and listed the continuous home games without defeat. That Twitter...
