ADB has renewed his player registration.  Wink

I agree aidy needs time to sort out this club of ours and I think he performed miracles keeping us up.
That is something I'm eternally grateful for.
That said leaving signings this late makes me nervous in case they don't come off.
The team I saw Saturday was very poor and desperately needs reinforcing.
Like I've said if the general consensus is that we will be aiming to stay up rather than go up whilst probably acceptable to fans such as myself who have had to witness rubbish for at least the last two seasons it will not encourage extra bums on seats on Saturdays at sixfields.
If the club are happy with this slow progression then fair enough but they can't expect increased attendances on the back of such a policy.

As I have said previously, ADB is probably thinking and having similar concerns but the acquisition of assets isn't as easy as playing Championship Manager.
It takes time and the players required and/or desired are not always either available or more importantly willing to come to a club that finished just above the relegation zone in the Fourth Division last season. 
This is despite the club having a progressive relatively young Manager and a Chairman who clearly wants to improve the status of the club.   Wink

There is no way marlon king is coming to us, if he does il show my arse in tesco! When he was a cov the season before last he said he was playing the best football of his career! He would still do a job in the prem in my opinion! Some people live in a dream world!

Isn't he Andy's brother?  Cool

I'm off to the ASDA tomorrow to watch Brazil play Honduras. I'll have my NTFC shirt on, so will see if I can get it on camera somewhere. . . . COME ON HONDURAS!!!!  Grin

Can you wear shirts that have advertising on that isn't one of the Olympic partners?  Roll Eyes

Hi All,

I hope it's ok to to post this on here mods.

Anyone know a good plasterer who will do a professional job for a reasonable price? Despite being a tradesman myself, the ones I know are a bunch of cowboys and it's for a mate of mine.

Cheers

Jim  Smiley

I do, but he works in A&E!  Tongue Wink

If you are banned, you are banned from all forms of football until the ban is completed?
Why is he any different?  Roll Eyes

Before we get the do you know better than aidy boothroyd brigade on here this is what I would have done.
I would of sold Jacobs and bayo.
I would have bought in Clive platt for bayo.
I would have bought in Hackett for Jacobs.
I would have tried to get Alan Connell or Jon shaw to score the goals.
I would have tried to get in one of Carlisle gyepes or rob jones early on so they can get settled.
I am not Jose mourinho but I'm sure that would have been better than the mess we are in.
As for the goalie god knows why we've offered kitson a deal.
What was wrong with matt duke???
Come the end of the season it'll be interesting to see how the above players have performed for their various clubs.
Also bare in mind I would have done it all for £0.


How do you know that all of the above isn't exactly how ADB is thinking but because real life isn't always as easy as it is played out on inaminate objects, he has been unable to follow it through?
We have a saying, "that even the best laid plans rarely survive first contact".
Your first contact has not survived because Bayo hasn't been sold (yet) if that is part of ADB's plan.  Wink

Use a search engine and look it up yourself - takes 30 seconds.

I had, but the JPT page on the FL website was showing a blank at that time so I assumed that the information had been acquired from elsewhere.
Just looked using Enya's link and it is now showing.

Thank you for your help... Wink
11914  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Open Forum Thursday 9th August with Aidy Boothroyd on: July 31, 2012, 22:20:52 pm
Will be interesting to see how many of the 'Championship Managers' turn up to provide ADB with their views on what he is doing wrong?  Roll Eyes
11915  The Hotel End / Cobblers Corner / Re: Moved South on: July 31, 2012, 22:17:54 pm
Where are the listings for who is in which region?
11916  The Hotel End / Other Football & Sport / Re: The latest John Terry saga.. on: July 30, 2012, 17:04:42 pm
Rio now charged with improper conduct in relation to comments posted on Twitter...

This could/is going on and on....  Roll Eyes
11917  The Hotel End / Other Football & Sport / Re: Olympic womens football on: July 29, 2012, 23:04:58 pm
If, and thats a massive IF, team GB men win the gold, will Ryan 'I'm not singing the GB anthem' accept his knighthood from the Queen of GB&NI?  Roll Eyes
11918  The Hotel End / Other Football & Sport / Re: Olympic tickets, who's got what.. on: July 29, 2012, 23:02:47 pm
England springs immediately to mind. Are they really banning the St. George's cross?

Loved it when 'I am Welsh so don't sing the GB anthem' Giggs scored tonight that a flag of St George was immediately in the background.  Grin

There is a different level of conviction with the FA than a court of civil law:

'Beyond reasonable doubt' is what could not be proved in the magistrates court.
The FA use the 'Balance of Probability' which is a lesser degree of evidence that is needed for a conviction.
The fact that he admitted using the racially abusive language could be quite useful to the FA although it is not clear, although we all have our own ideas, whether it was directed or was he just repeating what he thought Anton had said?
Anton Ferdinand did not use racially abusive language, only what is termed as 'industrial language'.

This could go on and on.... Roll Eyes
