Re: Sarfend (hive) The Butterfly Prawn Effect

See there transfer embargo has been removed, could have a few more faces in for Saturday. Can’t wait for the game, COYB’s This is potentially an unpopular opinion, but if a transfer embargo is in place before the start of the season - it should remain in place for the whole season. Lifting it half ...

Re: Sarfend (a) The Shrimply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time Thread

I was bang in line to the build up to the penalty and your player who crossed the ball was a clear two yards offside when receiving it. Really strange thing to say because it's so blatantly not true. (Unless you don't understand what offside is because it has nothing to do with anyone's positions w...

Re: Sarfend (a) The Shrimply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time Thread

I would also ass that I don't think the female ref was bad at all. She could have sent GSM off but chose not to. I think that was a mistake, but possibly her only one and easy to miss in the moment. She could have also sent Idris off, however that was less clear-cut, (and he needs to manage himself ...

Re: Sarfend (a) The Shrimply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time Thread

I thought we were a tiny bit lucky today, but not in the way that some have suggested. To start off with I was surprised that DB changed a side that won 6-0, and the reason is probably that we have some players who can't play 3 games in 8 days. Laurie scared the life out of me in terms of his unwill...

Re: Boreham Wood (Hive) The Reindeer Hoof Match Thread

Late comment but wow just wow. Regarding David Stephens. He was a rock while he was here. I won't remember his struggles on Saturday but his contributions in our colours. This year he is mourning his mother who befriended some of our fans when she watched him play for us. May she continue to Rest I...

Re: Boreham Wood (Hive) The Reindeer Hoof Match Thread

"Other subtle but significant change is the impact that 2 natural full backs in the starting XI had on the side. Coker for example, (who was really poor that last time he played), " Footballs all about opinions, I thought he had a decent game last week @ Ebbsfleet Quite right. Apologies. ...

Re: The Southend double header

I think memories of H particularly are sullied by the appalling team he played in during his last season with us. We seen to have completely forgotten his performances in a 3 with Santos & Reynolds under DC and seasons before that.H absolutely makes our squad, but as a centre-half rather than a ...

Re: Boreham Wood (Hive) The Reindeer Hoof Match Thread

It's hard to judge a performance against a team as bereft of.... just about everything, as Boring Wood were yesterday. They were the least Boring Wood of any Boring Wood side I have seen since they were promoted to the National league. That being said, it was obviously a good performance and I was r...

Re: Ex-Bees (2014 update)

Am I the only person who thinks that Mark Cousins was/is better than many remember?

He was playing in goal when we set our (recent anyway), record of games without conceding under DC. never quite understood the level of negativity towards him.

Re: Boreham Wood (Hive) The Reindeer Hoof Match Thread

Anyone at the game want to tell us if we're good or Boring Wood are bad please? I appreciate that this is not the same Boring Wood of the last few years, but 3-0 at HT, (and might have been 6), is not what I was expecting. Amazing what playing 2 full-backs does to a side. :hi: Hartigan playing forwa...

Re: Sam Barratt…

I'm a little surprised at Barratt leaving. Signed by Brennan, not really given an opportunity and now left. Seems to have something about him. Looks decent.

Maybe he was signed thinking that Nicke might leave or be injured.

Re: Sam Barratt…

Signed Jordan Maguire-Drew. Really don’t get the signing at all, hasn’t been playing for a team a league below us, has had more clubs than Tiger Woods and has a history of having an attitude problem. What’s the strategy? People said the same about Micheal Gash. ... I think most had seen Gash absolu...

Re: KML

I think players who play football for a living have a slightly different outlook than those of us who play football for fun. It's his job 1st and foremost.
