The B-Ark / Sutton

« on: September 07, 2024, 05:19:24 PM »

Couldn't be there today but what a wonderful tonic the lads provided and one of the best Birthday Presents I have had for years. I said last week these boys are coming together to give us a great team to support, both of the last two away games the manager has set them up with a great game plan that they have carried out to perfection. Lets pack the place out next Tuesday and show them how much we care and believe in them.  UTP

The B-Ark / Notts County

« on: July 30, 2024, 10:29:38 PM »

I have to say that I am now looking forward to the new season following the game tonight. Apart from the ref who did his damndiist to spoil a good night by reducing us to 10 men for much of the second half the boys stood up tremendously well to a very rough County team. Super goal to win it from Agadodo sorry I mean Aderoju and feel he and Hazel can shine up front for us. Lots of good signs from many of the boys and Jai Rowe was outstanding.  UTP

The B-Ark / Buxton

« on: February 28, 2024, 09:13:58 AM »

Poor tactics playing into Buxtons hands admited by our manager so who's fault is that? Best performer in last two matches dropped to the bench and not used is very strange but we are getting used to strange decisions.
Why did we bring in Marriot I hope we aren't payings his wages or he will be on about £4k an hour, bringing him on for the last twenty minutes every game he doesn't get a chance to get into the game why not give him a start?
Need to get sorted for Saturday as a win is vital, lose this and we will really struggle to have a chance of a play off place, we all need to be there and be the 12th man.  UTP

The B-Ark / Televisions on concourses.

« on: February 17, 2024, 08:58:07 PM »

Almost impossible to move in Ellenders before the game so along with my Grandson we decided to go into the ground to watch the football on the TVs on the concourse along with a pie and a drink only to find there was no football on the TVs. I would like someone to explain why this is always the case when TVs are provided? I toiled for 2 years raising money to buy them so I hope you will understand why I am so disappointed. I really would have thought we would have been able to watch them as they are the only alternative to Ellenders unless of course you are in a box or in Kabias Bar upstairs.  UTP

The B-Ark / Southport

« on: February 03, 2024, 10:17:19 PM »

First of all thanks to Mick and Co for the treat of being in the Acorn Taxis box today. As we talked before the game I stated I thought we were the equal to any team in this division and that we would sail into the playoffs and win promotion, a few raised eyebrows but I stand by my belief we are good enough to achieve it. Before this season we would have been drawn into a kicking match against this Southport side who were a disgrace to the game, but played good posession football to crush them. I don,t want to name any individuals as they all showed us how they have come together and are fast becoming a real team of substance. Lets all if we are able get to Warrington next week and again be the twelth man these boys deserve it. UTP.

The B-Ark / Great start to New Year

« on: January 01, 2024, 06:45:29 PM »

What a great start to the Year a wonderful gate of almost 2700 to see a revitalised Pilgrims side play the oposition off the park. I said last week on here that I thought Hazel was the best signing for a long time and today he proved that once again covering every inch of the pitch and scoring a beauty also winning a penalty for us. Running him close for man of the match has to Michael Boswick who also had a blinder however, all the team played their part. Onward to Scunthorpe next week let's all get behind the boys UTP.

The B-Ark / Coalville

« on: November 18, 2023, 09:23:11 PM »

Well there it was for all to see, so short on personel when young Wilson leaves the field with what looked like a dislocated shoulder we replace him with a young fullback to play as a lone striker. Perhaps it is as well we are out of this competition if this how desperate we are for players, this is not having a pop at the young fellow who gave his all. For crying out loud lets have some players in the fans deserve much better. UTP.

The B-Ark / Under 23s

« on: September 15, 2023, 08:42:38 AM »

Can anyone explain what the under23s team is all about? This is a genuine request as they don't seem to play any games, and when I hear the management team say we have a small first team squad it appears that although this is a so called route through to the first team they are not considered a part of the first team squad. Obviously there is a financial cost and I wonder if this could be better spent on strengthening the first team squad.
This is not meant to be devisive or controversial and I do want to see the youngsters having the chance to progress their careers, I am just hoping somebody can clarify where all this fits into the club progressing on the field. UTP

The B-Ark / Alfreton

« on: September 09, 2023, 05:47:04 PM »

Had to the stream today, what a waste of £9.50 We are in a false position in the league when we perform so abysmally agaist a patched up side. No threat up front and desperate for a left back. The chairman needs to get out the cheque book or it will be yet another year trying to survive in this league, or is it the case that survival will surfice?. Get in some loan players but for goodness sake make sure they are better than the lad from Birmingham. The fans deserve better than this but if it continues they will vote with their feet in fact we will be lucky if 4 or 500 turn up on Saturday. My glass is usually half full but i have just knocked it over.  UTP.

The B-Ark / Warrington

« on: August 26, 2023, 06:54:15 PM »

This is not being critical but we could have had 4 or 5 goals today which is testament to Cullys way of playing the game which is great to watch. Two of the best goals we will see all season made today a real pleasure. I don't want to single any player out as I feel they all contributed in a lovely team performance and gave us all a warm feeling for the rest of the season. Looking forward to carrying on like this on Monday at Stortford and having another great away day on Micks party bus.  UTP.

The B-Ark / COMMUNICATING WITH SUPPORTERS

« on: February 22, 2023, 04:02:16 PM »

Unless there are comments regarding match days and matters relating ther appears to be little on the clubs website to engage the interest of supporters . I find this a disappointment and feel the club needs to keep the interested with regular content to engage them and keep them enthused.
Eg:- Regular updates on injuries and illness in the squad. A quick couple of minutes interviews with players and staff on training nights, The clubs plans for the future and how fans can play a part in these.
I appreciate with most players not being local it is dificult for them to interact with the fans but with better use of social media as sugested this can be improved.
Come on! the more everyone can feel involved, engaged and valued the better for the club to move on to much better times.  UTP
