Re: Now that we’re out of the running

Bromley and Solihull will experience league football for the first time.

I have no axe to grind with either so I wish them both well and hope they represent our league well. I doubt they will but I hope they do.

Re: Play offs future

Bring back two legged play offs. Would you really want us to have an away leg at Solihull, 0-4 down, to look forward to? Did you go to the second leg at Shrewsbury? I still remember the disappointment of that. The away leg would have been first! Imagine losing 4-0 at home after drawing the away leg...

Re: Solihull Moors (THTS) The Minging to Winning Match Thread

:eee: Yep but Ted Lasso more realistic than England winning anything! Kidding Dear England was good. A few criticisms though. Thought it too soon putting on a play about a current side. Didn't like the unnecessary focus on Kane's accent though and making Henderson and Dier seem like squabbling baffo...

Re: Solihull Moors (THTS) The Minging to Winning Match Thread

For fear of contradicting myself Ollie working on the mental preparation of the players for big games with the use of a psychologist may help. Players face issues off the pitch which may affect their ability to perform on it. Is there a fan of our team in this field who could elaborate or help? Mayb...

Re: Barnet retained list

Always think football is a bizarre industry where as soon as possible we clamour for people to lose their jobs. It intrigues me that in some instances a promotion can be bad for some players who do a good job in one league and can't cut it in another. A player who gets relegated may be too good for ...

Words I don't like to read on this forum or twitter etc.

(1) Tinpot - very demeaning and often ironic.

(2) Bottled - often is actually were outplayed or tactically out thought.

Out of all of the plays offs of the past 2024 was the worst. Straight into room 101 Ben.

8 goals in two play off games. Fair play and good luck to them.

Re: Solihull Moors (THTS) The Minging to Winning Match Thread

Waking up I wished the heavy overnight downpour I dreamt about was yesterday instead of today. We were second on merit as we amassed our 4th highest points total I think I and more than everyone else bar Chesterfield. I think the overall quality of the division was maybe not as strong as previous an...
