Goals anyone ?

Renamed in memory of John Hawksworth, a stalwart member who passed this day 2nd August 2020. RIP Mr Monkeybutt.

Sadly we must add the name of Kevin Minton, Aka Mr Ripper who passed 30/6/22. Kev was also Mr politically incorrect but a nicer lad you could never meet.

Goals anyone ?

Mani D
Grey
Mancini
Cleary
Madine

All gone from what was a poor side last season…who have we got instead whos going to get goals and create chances

Campbell-pretty shite last year, could improve I suppose
Folarin/charman—enough said
Johnson- good record but 32 and needs someone to create chances
Francis- 8 goals last year, maybe he’ll get a few more this year


We seem on paper (and I know football is played on grass etc..)
Way Way worse off than last year.

I am not seeing anything in the recruitment that doesn’t point to a lower mid table/relegation fight finish…

Only my prediction and hopefully I am wrong

A reckon Lennie will have to come off the bench this season.
And will be leading scorer with 7 OGs.

I know I’m a pessimist but when you put it in writing it really doesn’t look good…

Maybe because he'd not make the match day squad there?

Yeh teams doing great and been superbly managed this last 3 years , just a string of bad luck and issues we can’t control….this misfortune can’t last for ever and we are nailed on to go up this year

From the sublime to the ridiculous. Learnt a long time ago why get upset about something you can not do anything about. Deep breath and relax think about your blood pressure.
