  1. Right tight game. Most action came in first half. Altrincham don't have much up front really though but both teams hit the woodwork early on. Honestly probably should have been 0-0, or 1-1 but it was a grind for Boston. Great weather too. And I'm back there good Friday where if they win I think that should see them safe
  2. But the internal atmosphere is the best Coady has played in. willy puller he is along with all the others
  3. How was it? Up early for that run mate, although wise with the heat. Just done a 23km myself at 4:57 kmph average. Which I'm happy about that about matches my best half marathon about a month ago. The elapsed time was slower though by about 7 mins (elapsed splits 5:25) because I have to stop for water breaks, and I'm trying new routes so pausing for a few seconds to see where I am 😂 Also the warmer weather is making me often desperate for a piss, must be the weather because it wasn't happening before 😂 So yeah reasonably happy considering I did 11km intervals yesterday. Think I could break my own record if I have significant rest before and also not as warm 😂
  4. Second lots of intervals I've done today. Again just did a two km jog as a warm up then bursts for 500m with a jog for next 500m repeat. Managed to do 7 bursts total, but **** me it's hot outside this evening. I'm absolutely dreading the summer tbh, I think I'm much more suited to cold weather running. It's really taking it out of me and I'm sweating like mad. I should have started these before. Think the fastest speed per km I was going at was 3:40, I really don't think I can go faster than that except the first burst or two. Will do a ten mile or half marathon distance tomorrow but light pace and with water. I don't think I'll be breaking my PBs any time soon unless I wake up very early in the morns when it's cooler
  5. Unbelievable. Just wish they had at least got a point at Wealdstone the other day, because now Wealdstone have won a couple it's given then a cushion. Tough game at home to Altrincham on Saturday which I may go to. Then again on Good Friday to Wealdstone again. 4 points would be decent. Solihull away after who are also still in the fight. Toughest game is Gateshead fighting for Playoffs. Last game is away at doomed Maidenhead so surely they can win there if it's required
  6. Started interval training yesterday. 2k jog then 500m burst then 500m jog repeat. Ran total of 11k with total of 4k ran at fast bursts. Absolutely killed me 😂 the more quick bursts I did I actually had to stop for a min or so as it was knackering. Also don't think the weather is helping, like it being sunnier but even at 15c I get absolutely baking 😂 I'm only used to running in the winter so far! Will keep going with them probably at the weekend but I definitely underestimated how hard they'd be. Think Strava said my 500m pace between 9k-9.5k was 3:42 pace but I'm not sure that's quite accurate in fairness. Managed to run 151k total in March which I'm chuffed with as I have a 100k target a month on Strava to aim for
  7. Yeah great value that is. Someone else has put here also I think but the food there is top notch also for the price, I happily buy food at non league places but would never at top clubs where it's overpriced crap. That missing stand I think is still some way off although them going professional next season might accelerate it. Vital they stay up, they had years in the lower leagues and it's so hard to come back up with only two promotion places
  8. Today I was beind the goal with the hardcore so was a good atmos. Tues night I was along the side but standing. Also good atmosphere although Southend brought 400 on Tues night the other end of that stand so that definitely added to it. Last minute winner today though made a great atmosphere as did the penalty save. It's a great little ground even with the one stand at one end not done yet. I'm actually going to I think all their home games remaining now as I've sacked off Lcfc home and away until August. Even going to the final game away at Maidenhead now which could be make or break
  9. Was at the game again today. Boston were the better team first half and let a silly equaliser in. Sutton were arguably the better team second half really as Boston didn't offer too much. Sutton had a pen saved at 1-1 which was then proved to be a massive moment. The Boston winner looked a bit scuffed or scruffy but it doesn't matter. I'll watch it back though as it was at the other end to me
  10. Went to Boston Vs Southend on Tues and I'm going again on Saturday. I'm prioritising doing as many as their games as possible as I'm not bothering again with Leicester this season. Great atmosphere there and nice to be able to support something worth supporting
  11. That was freezing. Didn't help because the day before I had come back from San Francisco wear id been wearing shorts so I really felt the temperature change 🤣 Remember walking to the ground thinking I was ****ing freezing and actually saw a Leicester fan in shorts 🤣
  12. Signed up to my first actual organised run. Doing Kings Lynn 10k in early May. Looking forward to it.
  13. Don't envy running in London, must be a nightmare with how busy it can get even at the quiet times! Good going though that is even if an unofficial time. I think 10km or 10 miles (16k) are my favourites but it does become more of a mental push over 10k I find. I enjoyed the half marathon distance on Saturday I did but wouldn't do that long more than probably once a month
  14. 10k pb just now. 45:04 Pleased with that, although actually dropped off at close to 4:40 mins per km for the halfway stage. Somehow stormed the end with 4:13 and 4:14 in the last 2km Gutted wasn't under 45 mins but the route I do does spend at least ten seconds twisting and turning around fencing where a railway track is so that's what's done it for me. Been nursing a real pain in my back the last two days also so delighted with now I've run with that. Separate note the weather is amazing right now. Although 15 degrees feels hot af to me rn so I'm dreading may/june coming 😂😂😂
  15. I'm not bothering at all again this season. Made that decision before Sunday but Sunday just reinforced it. I cannot justify the cost in travel to see a total lack of any fight or anything. It's got to the point now where I've already written the season off and I've become apathetic and don't let it bother me. Want to go and watch some non league instead
  16. God get this manager gone. Id rather have filbert fox in for the last nine games than this
  17. Would genuinely love to know why Daka is so deep and Vardy the one running onto things. It should be the other way around. Literally no point playing Daka like this, Buonanotte would be better surely
  18. Attempted 5k pb again yesterday...two seconds slower at 20:40 😂 need to start the intervals training soon. Could do with doing a parkrun with a 20min pacer there too really! Cheered myself up today though, did half marathon distance in 1 hour 45 mins. Managed to keep the pace below 5 mins per km at 4:57 which I'm pleased about no end. Broke my 15k, 10 mile, 20k and half marathon PBs with that today. Also 10k in 49 mins which isn't far off my pb, so reckon I could get close to 45 mins in that distance now
  19. I don't mind if Daka plays as long as we utilise him properly and he puts the effort in. He's shite in front of goal but he can press. He can run and pull defenders too. This is where we do no other the top balls or anything in behind though. We so struggle to get up the pitch as we have no pace so hopefully him playing solves this a bit
  20. Happy he's changed it just a shame it's at least 8 games too late. Faes playing is a joke though. Bloke is terrible
  21. We're going down because we literally can't draw games. A point when you're shit should never be disrespected. Been saying since before Xmas id have loved to have seen some shite 0-0s, just to build a base from. Or even a one all. Unfortunately this team and manager are not capable. And soon we're in the territory that draws are no good anyways.
  22. I recently posted similar if you look back through a page or so. You have to have rest. I hated the thought of too much rest really but managed to do a week with no running and it really helped. Plus wearing compression socks/sleeves when running and also just day to day even at work when I was in the week recovery. Oh and don't run through them even if the pain subsided, it only comes back! I got my best 10k on my first run back and best 5k on Monday. I also haven't run the distance I did when I got the splits, I ran a 20, 25 and 30k all in about two weeks and that did me in. I've done a 16k last week but I'll give another half marathon a go soon. Also expensive running shoes really do make the difference. I forked out £150 on mine and didn't want to spend the money but so glad I did. It makes such a difference.
  23. That's mega impressive mate! Just literally back from my best 5k attempt.... As said before I'm after sub 20 mins. Last pb was 21:50 in Jan, generally run longer now. Just done in it 20:38. I'm relatively happy with that but annoyed not far off sub 20 mins. Think if I ever crack 20 I'll never run 5k again 😂 Think I need to do interval training as people have said here before. Also need to adjust my pace a bit as I'm a bit too quick in the first 2k and even tho I empty the tank at the end I've left a bit too much to do.
  24. I agree with this totally. It's like them and him know he wants to go
  25. Worst manager I've ever seen. Id take Puel or Holloway or Sousa over this clown.
