We haven't even started the season yet? This is the 1st pre season Hurst has had to mould this team on his own. We've played a team 2 leagues above us with a team of triaists and new signings who don't even know each other.


You need to learn Brad that it is impossible to employ logical positivism (look it up Codger) with some on here...


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

He had over 40 games last season and we got worse as we went on. Aren't you slightly scared that he bases his attack around a man with an abysmal goal scoring record?


Utterly hysterical!

No, because anybody who knows anything about the game knows LJL isn't a main striker, he's the target man, he needs someone alongside him to score the goals. Not many teams have 2 out and out goal scoring strikers in their side.

So we lose 4-0 to a team 2 leagues above us in a friendly and the worlds going to end, some of you lot need to get a grip.


I am sick of hearing its a friendly it does not count. Could you imagine ab sending a team out with that thought in their minds a game is a game and should be treated as such by the players and the MANAGER  if I had seen a spine within the team a passion to achieve a system of play regardless of the result I would have left happy but all I saw was was the same aimless hoof forward that we have tried to do for the last three years

What so a Buckley team never played in a friendly going through the motions? Come on, lets be realistic. Results don't matter in friendlys, they dont get you points, they dont get you promoted. They get people fit and players getting to know one another. Half of that team tonight don't even know each other properly yet so how can you expect to see slick passing football with a good understanding is beyond me. We are also playing a team 2 leagues above us so we are not going to pass them off the park.

Quoted from MuddyWaters


4-0 wasn't it? People just seeing more of the same, we have a decent squad apart from a pair of strikers who are clearly not good enough. Lennie couldn't trap a bag of cement and I believe that Hannah lives in Offside Close (not very), Offsidetown, Offside.

Why oh why are we expected to accept another year of inept management in this shite league?


I nearly bit and answered this seriously. But have decided to answer it like other rational humans have....... You are a comical genius.

You really believe we improved as the season went on? Southport home and away? Hyde? Braintree? Woking?

Fully expect us to start 442 against Bristol Rovers. I'm pretty sure Paul knows his 11, doubt it'll be any different to this(after suspensions etc)...

Simples. Although obviously it'll be Doig and Magnay and Arnold in for the 3 bad boys first game.

I really hope we have at least one striker different in that starting line up. Wouldn't mind us signing Pittman to give us something different. But ideally we need at least 2 in my opinion.
