Quoted from acko338
Any new striker that can produce a one off season "Connell" type goal scoring run and get us out of this league would be worth every penny spent.

The emphasis looks to be on faster pace & delivery - we also need a quality dead ball player from the group for corners & free kicks, not the rubbish load of lousy service as seen last year.

Hannah will be rid of his offside runs if the through balls are snappy and first time - it's mere feet, not yards, that he gets caught out.

Looking forward to tonight as a real test against higher level opposition.

Can we turn Pittman into our Pitt bull terrier up front to worry the opposition?? Competition for L J-L as target man??

Hopefully good weather and a good turn out ??


The service from free kicks and corners last year from Kerr was excellent.

I'd tend to disagree. It was a bit better than the season before (not difficult!), but way too many of his set pieces were lofted up in the air rather than being whipped in. I'd say the corners were worse than the free-kicks in this respect.

Most teams we faced seemed to have somebody able to put dangerous balls into the box more effectively.

I agree for the first half of the season but after his injury he was never the same

Groan! So bad it's worth a tick Pete!

That joke will be lost on the youngsters. It's all voice recognition software and mispelling these days  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Pittman seems like a younger version of Lee Peacock.  Plenty of ability, an eye for goal, a good lad but question marks (to be checked) over fitness.

I don't think the question is over his ability but his fitness levels and how many games he can play.
