Don't know anything about him but seems as good a calibre of player as we could've hoped for in the circumstances. League experience, 20 league apps for Plymouth.

Great win and much-needed. Wasn't there so no idea how debatable their free-kick scramble was but we've definitely been due a bit of luck.

On an amusing note, the Press Association's match reporter definitely isn't an Ebbsfleet season ticket holder...

Also hope the “handball” from their keeper is in the highlights because I’m keen to see it again. Certainly looked like he’d left his area. Wouldn’t have been a red though, as some are saying. I thought all handballs outside the box by GKs were red cards? Or is it only if it denies a goalscoring ch...

Might be wrong but wasn't he one of the players on Nico's 'maybe' list, who were offered a new contract but on lower wages?

Just been appointed Crystal Palace manager :na:

Hope it's not Westley. Only heard bad things about him

I hope Fatboy has ordered a 5 x large flak jacket and helmet cause he is going to need it when the shit hits the fan.

hahahahahaha. Peak Brucie

Profiled him a couple of months ago for the Highway to Hele 'Where are they now?' (issue 12). Great character.

Worrying how easily influenced the officials at this level seem to be by players. Neither ref nor linesman sees the need to stop for the high boot in the build up...only when the linesman's been surrounded by Chester players does he 'remember' it was a high boot :whip: Looks like a much better perfo...

Having seen the weird videos Sol puts on Twitter I wouldn't really want to trust him with a desperately struggling, low-confidence group of players. And as others have said, now's not the time to take a risk on a completely untried manager - get someone in who has experience in this sort of situatio...

Good news, desperately needed some cover.

And if you wanted to watch a 25-minute vlog from new left-back Chinua Cole's trip to Bali, guess what? You can! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sC_Ar4PrWcM&app=desktop

Some good insight here into why Cox resigned: http://www.nwemail.co.uk/sport/barrow-afc/article/Paul-Cox-leaves-Barrow-AFC-f90bf140-4e59-48cd-ab1a-9f35c79b095a-ds Looks like it was frustration at not having new signings (they haven't been able to fill the bench), and possibly also only being told ab...

Thoughts: Richards and Hurst are very good. Heslop is the midfield MacDonald with slightly more ability. MacDonald's not worth the trouble he'll get us into with his hotheadedness. Hard to see where out and out wingers like Murombedzi fit into our formation - maybe it's time to play a more attacking...

Enjoyed that, cheers

Pretty sure Cox got sent off for dissent after substitution-gate - a more officious and unnecessary piece of refereeing you will not find. Looked like the bench wanted to take Briscoe off (understandably, given he doesn't look built to last 90 mins) but put up Fisher's number instead; when the fourt...
