Going to be an interesting season IMO.

Numpties from Man United trying to buy one of our players for peanuts, this depite our club being awash with money, owned by a billionaire who is probably one of the most knowledgeable people on the planet when it comes to football, and a brilliant poker player.

Baleba may well end up in Manchester, but it won't be this season, it won't be for under £100 million, and it won't be for a team that plays in red.

well first league game today and our terrible pre season form was reflected in the on pitch performance.

with only 3 first team regulars left from last season which reflects our being one of the few semi proffessional sides in that division. most of our players have been poached by teams who can pay more

In the last 25 minutes we began to play as a team and dominated with the ball getting scrambled off their goal line several times but it wasn't to be and ended 0-0 evidence that this season we are relegation contenders not playoff contenders. No disrespect intended towards Tim flowers but I think it's fair to say his team are as well.

next up it's away at St ives a team that always seem to score goals something we can't do.

Stick your chairman in goal, no f***er would get the ball past him.

Not realy the way any Forest fans wanted to do it but Palace got it wrong. Could be interesting when we visit them for the second game of the season.

Can't do anything bar laugh at Man United, and one of their fan YouTube sites. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

the trouble is Manure always end up paying way too much for players and having to sell at bargain basement prices so it's no wonder that Mt tightarse ineos is trying to change that



Meanwhile my lot have now played 3 and scored NIL so despite only conceding twice they are rock bottom of the table. Next saturday they are at home to a team who could easily thrash us 10 nil

And the irony is that two of our players out on loan are helping that club to 4th place with one scoring a goal a game and the other getting man of the match awards

meanwhile today it was the preliminary round of the FA cup

Jimbos other team Lincoln utd had a miserable day away at Skegness.

Stamfords second team (Blackstones FC) also lost at home to grimsby Borough but for me the most pleasing result was Anstey Nomads who poached two of our players post season crashing out

I dont think the supporters of Edgware and Kingsbury were too impressed losing at home 0-9 to Whitstable with eastbourne united losing by the same score

We weren't really at our best today.

But had a better day than one of our previous manager, who quite possibly will be the first manager in the Premiership to get sacked. :D

Jimbo is definitely not a two team w@nker. Never visited the whites, it’s enough torture following the Imps.
