Re: Big games tonight
Got a feeling Solihull will edge it, but I'd like to see Gateshead's fans celebrate winning the trophy a week later.

Re: Coaching additions
TK is trusting in DB and listening to what he needs. This is a good step. Hopefully it will make a resl difference, but at the same time we still need to sign players who are not injury-prone.

Re: Changes to National League 24/25 season
Does this mean the PL u21 sides will compete in two trophy competitions? As much as I'm not a fan of extra games, there could also be an opportunity to market our club to PL fans. A lot of kids never get to actually see their PL club play. The attraction of a parent taking their kid to watch Spurs o...

Re: Changes to National League 24/25 season
Like the fact we can name 7 subs, we should always have a GK on the bench! Now we can use 5, this could help ease the workload on players and help reduce injury risk. The festive fixture idea is good as well. It's quite intense playing the same side twice in a week, although we did ok with it this s...

Re: Next season
Absolutely. As much as Saturday was a disappointing occasion in the end, we should see it as a "bump in the road". On the whole, these last two seasons have been good. In DB we trust, but as fans we also have to believe in ourselves and what we want to achieve for our club. The B2B campaig...

Re: Barnet retained list
If we could find a tricky winger to play on the right, that would give other teams a real problem. All very well doubling up on one player, but if play gets switched to the other side...

Re: Barnet retained list
Won't load for me either yet.
But whatever is in the article, we haven't hung about. List published within days of the playoff. DB probably already knew what his plans were if we were still in the NL.

Re: Barnet retained list
DB has definitely made it a priority to get players in on permanent contracts who have a history of playing consistent numbers of games. We've taken a punt with the odd loan signing like Thompson. But ultimately, you can never tell whether a player will break down with injury over the course of a se...

Re: Ex-Bees (2014 update)
Richard Brindley just announced he’s leaving Notts County. Hmmmm. Worth a punt on him? He's certainly played more regularly in recent years at Notts. I guess a lot depends on how DB views the future of RHJ and Cropper in that right back/RWB position. The season-long fitness of RHJ is a concern. He ...

Re: Barnet retained list
Aggregation of marginal gains... Take small sections of the squad and make each one marginally better than what you have. The overall effect is massive. Doesn't require an overhaul of the squad. Sams for tactical approach. If DB still believes in his way of playing, get better at it, but don't be af...

Re: Near full Hive
Under normal circumstances, the 2nd bar area would have serviced the rest of the Legends spectators. That would have alleviated the stress on the main area, but the Solihull fans were using the Jubilee bar. I think going back to a membership-only bar would be a step backwards. Service just needs to ...

Re: Now that we’re out of the running
Both teams are strong, physical sides, and a pain to play against, so from our point of view, happy to see the back of one of them. Both are well run clubs and will be up there again regardless. On the one hand, losing Bromley we say goodbye to at least one plastic pitch next season. But i feel Soli...

Re: Solihull Moors (THTS) The Minging to Winning Match Thread
We got bullied yesterday. When a team plays that tactic, we can't rely on fighting the referee. We've got to learn to fight fire with fire. To do that we need a few tougher players in the squad. Our A-Game should be to play football as we want. Against a lot of sides that was clearly good enough. Th...
