Nah not a chance

Better or worse?

 

I noticed Uttoxeter town who usually get less than 100 attendance got nearly 3000 against Bury....drawing them is winning the lottery for this level.

[leicesterisme]

Better for sure, will be top 3 without a doubt.

Mid table I think this season for Coalville.

Because they lost their first game?

Should still be up in the playoffs, need another midfielder though IMO.

 

League is going to be a lot harder than last season.

It was at Gigg Lane, they switched it at Uttoxeter's request.

Went to see King's Lynn Town v Hereford today, really good game and a lot of quality your man Cowley with the pick of the goals, a quality finish after jinking hi sway through the defence to level it up, Lynn dominated and should have won really, Hereford defended stoutly and Pond was an absolute colossus in goal.

 

Nice ground and another new one ticked off!

That makes sense, I was suprised any ground at this level could accomodate that sort of crowd, nice pay day for Uttoxeter.

They swapped their game to Gigg Lane. Their ground (I have been) would struggle to host 500 properly

Apparently incident at Tamworth.... yep what a surprise. One fan thought it would be clever to run on the pitch and try take on entire Scunthorpe support. Can someone please explain what's clever about getting your head kicked in, receiving a season long ban from home and away games and being arrested...?

It's like that small area of the country was an experiment where they performed lobotomies at birth.

Regarding Coalville I also have a feeling that we will struggle this season. 

 

Nothing in particular but just a continuation of the back end of last season, a lack of ideas when things are not going to plan. 

 

We haven't played proper Coalville football for quite a long time now. 

 

 

The league is harder as well.

We won 3-0 at Alvechurch when it could’ve been 6 and battered Stourbridge for 45-minutes last game of the season. The last really complete performance was Bromsgrove away in March, but I don’t think it’s time to panic yet. 
Saturday will be an intriguing match against one of the promotion favourites. I still fancy us for top 5 with the quality we have. We just need to find the right balance.

Grantham edge out Loughborough Uni 1-0 to progress in the FA Cup, didn't go but pleased for them as it was a tricky tie on paper and we need the prize money!

[Leicesterpool]

Wouldn't the Boro having a trip to Grantham in the Fa Cup, don't think we have faced them since 2004.

Justice.

 

He was once tipped to achieve a lot in his earlier career, when just starting out at Peterborough.

Shepshed through in the FA Cup 2-0 away at Sleaford.

Gunna be a long old season, ain't it? Stourbridge first goal was one of the best acrotbic goals I've seen live. Yet another capitulation...
