4-1 win for the rafa on sunday.

our 3rd goal was our 100th in the league this season, not a bad record

Not bad at all! Once you start believing your own hype though, a first defeat won't be far away, keep your players feet on the ground.

Not many games on today, I was on our pitch at 9 this morning sweeping the puddles off n it seemed to work.

2 nil victory anyway.,

Any chance the Council making an early decision about pitches this weekend?

Yubep · **Joined:** Wed Jan 31, 2007 6:35 pm **Posts:** 25266

Not likely, some are playable, some arent, its always down to the refs, some are more stricter than others with regards to whats playable and whats not.

our game was on last week n there was water on the pitch, ref just wasnt as fussed.

Would rather council carried on leaving decision to refs instead of just cancelling every pitch, as Yubep says at least you might have a chance of a game that way. Especially if you have people who'll put a bit of effort in helping clear a few puddles although the wind should help with that this week.

it certainly made a difference last week, i was the only one out early doors sweeping the pitch of the majority of surface water n it was the only game to go ahead of greys, it can be done lads, just get out early n have a sweep n a fork.

Think if a ref sees someone from the teams out on the pitch sweeping water off the pitch, they will be inclined to give the game the go ahead, I would of.In contrast I have come across teams who didn't fancy it and would try and convince me pitch was unfit and to call it off, even though pitch was playable.

We had young Owen last week n he's a sensible lad n one of my favs, this weeks it's alvin, different story, less said about him the better.

Hope everyone's games get the go ahead, mid week games are a twat.

I've passed the club over to one of the other lads, lost a lot of interest in the managing side of things in recent months and all the chew with the FA and club suspension didn't help. A hell of a lot of work is involved for very little return, I wish the Pearl Bar lads the best of luck, got a decent bunch of lads on their day. Probably going to look at playing again next season.

Sorry to hear Joe. Cant say im surprised mind with the amount of chew you were getting from running it. Hopefully they can keep going.

Had a feeling that Durham Fa episode would be the final straw for you joe. No one needs that

On their day ?? like that Joe, well done, you stuck it out for a good while. After a rest you will come back stronger for it.

Look forward to you back in the future joe. Even if it's just playing.

Good 1-1 draw for your lads against seaton sunday, does us a few favours too, always happens after a manager leaves that, get a good result.

Seen him picking ball out of the net at King Georges on Saturday- looked like his back was giving him gip.

It was a great strike really to be fair and it was my first game back since before Christmas so wasn't as mobile

Windy as fook yesterday morning, terrible game.

Beat the glass on penalties 5-4 after 120 mins of windy as fook footy.

At one point the glass had a shot from the edge of our box, it went up into the air over his head over everyones head n back to his own keeper, you after laugh.

Everyone was too busy laughing

horden · **Posted:** Mon Feb 24, 2014 8:48 pm

Refs hate them conditions, one in a million scenarios that make or break you. Especially galling when a ref has the decency to play a game without corner flags and the players give you pelters for being indecisive on ins and outs. Shi* happens and I am glad I am out of it.

Awful conditions, never seen a match played in wind like that!

See you in the Semi Final by the way Phil :dance:

Another referee assaulted by a player a few weeks ago, I know Alvin has his critics but I don't think he deserves that.

It's hard enough to get refs as it is, we've had 2 games called off this season for ref shortages, if people aren't careful we wont have any.

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Fri Mar 07, 2014 2:23 pm

What happened like?

Yubep · **Joined:** Wed Jan 31, 2007 6:35 pm **Posts:** 25266

In a nutshell

Awarded a penalty, lad abused him saying it wasn't a penalty, sent him off, attacked him.

martin83 · **Joined:** Tue Jan 01, 2008 8:47 pm **Posts:** 570

I'm rather glad i don't bother playing anymore. Too many idiots playing. I cant stand Alvin as much as the next person but being attacked for 20 quid. Idiots

returnofaido · **Posted:** Fri Mar 07, 2014 6:04 pm

i know loads of people who'd attack alvin for free, never mind £20

Pubey can you promise goals a plenty in your top of the table clash this weekend? Fancy watching a game and greys seems to have the better selection!

Yubep · **Joined:** Wed Jan 31, 2007 6:35 pm **Posts:** 25266

Only managed about 120 this season mate I can't promise goals but you'll see good footy. Decent side Seaton too so should be a good contest.

Routine win for you lads i thought. Seaton didn't have much going for them and your lads strolled through it. Also got the added bonus of a shoot out between rovers and ath on the pitch next to you.

What did you think of the Ath's 2nd penalty which basically lost it for us?

martin83 · **Joined:** Tue Jan 01, 2008 8:47 pm **Posts:** 570

Haha not quite pirlo was it. Thought you lads should have had it won in the 90 mind. First half should have been a few up.

Yeah, to be fair he done the keeper but he hit it to hard and hit the bar.

Hangem · **Posted:** Mon Mar 10, 2014 3:01 pm

Rovers gave it away in the 90mins with sloppy goals 2nd half but to be fair the lads up front for ath got them back in the game then goes and does that in the penalty shoot out. Aths keeper a bit quiet in shoot out were Rovers was trying to get into the takers head. It worked in the end even taking his gloves off to save the final penalty.

Good game on greys today between us n ITB, was close all first half n towards the end but as they tired we struck a few in to win 5-0.

Well done mate. Good to see a few years hard work paying off. Hardest league to get out of!

Also what's the deal with the dark shirts news on the website?
