Hahahahaha get to **** Bond ya geriatric old ****

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

Fk me this is men against boys ... (us being the boys)

Shagnessey bullied for their goal oxley already in the net. Southend just giving away foul after foul as they are so late to the ball and the player

 

[Ricey]

We are concentrating on the league

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

I think we should do something silly, like have a shot on target.

 

[GBJ]

It’s becoming more and more comical to me, that Bond will be sacked before he ever gets that elusive clean sheet he’s been desperate for

 

[Ricky Otto]

Sargent - Young reserve keeper. Bit of a flapper.
Judd - Young, suicidally aggressive reserve fullback. Dreadful going forward.
Ogie - Young centre back shoehorned into left back.
Ekpiteta & Happe - First choice centre backs. Both young and inexperienced. Both good on the ball. Happe is very slow.
Dennis - Tricky winger who can’t shoot. Good player with no end product.
Marsh - Some child from Spurs. Tiny but allegedly likes kicking people.
Gorman - Barely Conference-standard. Likes kicking the ball very hard off the pitch.
JMD - Talented, lazy wide player. Loves: taking the wrong option. Hates: tackling.
Harrold - Still a good option for 5 minutes off the bench. 10 at a push.
Alabi - Comically bad to the point where he has attained cult hero status. Probably be a pitch invasion if he scores.

Marvin or Marvel? They were at Chelmsford, good lads

 

[Shrimper]

5-4-1 against League 2.

Do one Bond

 

[Jonny_Stokes]

That sounds like a terrible team, but we might be even worse.

It genuinely isn’t a strong side. Only Ekpiteta is a true first-choice player, with Happe, Dennis and JMD integral parts of the first team squad albeit in and out of the side.

 

[Chrisb]

Is Ron back from holiday yet? I hope so!!

I read somewhere that he is back on Thursday.

 

[Ricey]

I read somewhere that he is back on Thursday.

If he isn’t sacked by Thursday I want Ron out too!

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

Who wants to go to the airport and pick Ron up in a car ?

 

[Ricey]

Who wants to go to the airport and pick Ron up in a car ?

I’d pay for his early flight home if it meant getting rid of this clown quicker!

 

[KevinJH]

Who wants to go to the airport and pick Ron up in a car ?

Could send KB with a blank piece of paper to hold up - only clean sheet he'd achieve I'd say......

 

[SheldonW65]

This is woeful. Elvis down injured and Waddock giving instructions while Bond rubs his chin.

 

[RHB]

Elvis down injured

 

[Bobby dazzler]

i just need them to score another two for my prediction league result to get 3 points.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

The taxi for Bond was booked for Saturday, but he wouldn't get in it.

 

[Mad Cyril]

Who wants to go to the airport and pick Ron up in a car ?

I will but I'll charge him a ton if he is sick.

 

[KevinJH]

This is woeful. Elvis down injured and Waddock giving instructions while Bond rubs his chin.

With any luck he'll rub so hard, he'll spontaneously combust and save Ron a job....
