Kevin Nicholson - 3 year contract

Does anyone seriously think that the current board would have made such a decision knowing that they are going to hand over the reins WITHOUT consulting the new owners? I'd like to think not but seeing as we've just gone from "news coming this week" to "hearing something positive by ...

Kevin Nicholson - 3 year contract

Great news, although the length of the contract is a bit of a surprise! Not meaning to put a downer on it, but isn't this a bit cart before the horse with regards the change of ownership? I assume the appointment has the approval of the new regime but who knows? It could turn out to be a similar sit...

Takeover of the club at an advanced stage

Looks like the new owners are keen to keep supporters informed. Once the deal is over the line of course.......

Borderline Boilers

Apologies if she's been posted already, but how about Amy Schumer?

Sometimes she looks ok and others like a drunken mistake you'd rather not admit to.

Ex-Gull watch

I watched Bobby Olejnik for Exeter City and Matt Green for Mansfield on Tuesday. Got to say, despite conceding three goals Bobby is still league 1/championship level in my opinion. Played pretty much as a sweeper getting involved in keep ball triangles with the defence. Was a pleasure to watch. Matt...

Talking of promotion, I have now reached the 800 mark in my postings. I believe that the next promotion comes at 1000 postings, so I will have to get cracking. I wonder who is the most prolific poster of all..... 2 places below you WivelGull. Going to have to up my game and post more banal nonsense...

Atkins V Nicholson

I can barely choose between the two. Both magnificent achievements, but each in their own way. Nicho had to come from a lot further back and had to sustain it over a longer period during the lowest point in our clubs history. I therefore think he just about shades it. Atkins' escape should not be do...

Nicholson Out

Some interesting views on this thread.

I know we were a load of old gash at that time, but I wonder if any of the posters might be a little more understanding and considerate with their views next time a similar situation arises.....

And it will happen again at some point!

A certain Lee Mansell was nothing but a hustle merchant too.

I actually think Richards has a place in the team doing exactly what he is good at. Breaking up play.

I agree with your list royalgull, but wouldn't it be good if we could keep Brendan Moore? I was thinking last night that one or two additions and we could well be challenging at the top of the table next season. Didn't want to count my chickens though as we're not quite safe yet...... 6667GULL, sorr...

MOTM - Altrincham

Iffy Allen - caused them all sorts of problems Dan Butler - great crossing and solid at the back Nathan Blisset - Alty couldn't handle his aerial threat Angus McDonald - tower at the back and kept his composure to not get a yellow Luke Young - ring rusty and carrying a bit extra weight, but a great ...

Torquay United v Altrincham

Well that was a breath of fresh air. We played some really good stuff in places and looked solid at the back too. Hats off to Iffy Allen who they couldn't handle with his trickery and Dan Butler for putting endless dangerous crosses into their box. Thinking about it, there were so many good performa...
