Wood had a better game on Saturday, so I wouldn't drop him.

I'd probably go 442 with Cotton on the left, and Newsham on the right, with Suarez and Clarke up top. Church and Sleath in the centre of midfield, and the same defence...

Anybody else fancy it?

1) All of them, just like last season
2) Ish
3) Kendal posed a threat. Nobody has outplayed us

What a load of moaning old buggers you lot are; typical of those fans who think they have a God given right to be playing in the football league, whilst showing contempt for those other teams playing in the depths of non league football- ironic for a club who’s won the NPL on four occasions.

Ha ha, nice one. That's cracked me up!

So why didn’t you win on Monday? Having watched you beat Guiseley 3-1, you were the better of two poor teams, having been gifted two goals by the awful officials- bet you didn’t complain about the ref on that day.

Wanna bet? The Guiseley penalty was even softer than ours! I take it you haven't looked back to postings from after that game to back yourself up?

You’ve played three home league games and failed to win any of ‘em. If your manager hadn’t made an injury time substitution, and your defenders not wasted time moaning to officials every chance they got, we wouldn’t have had time to score the equaliser. You didn’t win, cos you aren’t yet good enough.

We didn't win because we hit the bar and had an effort cleared off the line, rather than going in the net - and then because you lumped it forward at every opportunity in the final stages, and finally one of them landed perfectly for a shot on goal.

After you scraped a draw against them, we went to Kendal the following Tuesday. We hit the post, bar, missed a penalty and our forward blazed over an empty net from six inches. We should have hammered em 4-1 – weren’t good enough, but don’t go on our forum saying how crap Kendal is. Shit happens, so get over it.

I don't care, to be honest. You've done just there, what you're complaining about us doing. You didn’t win, cos you aren’t yet good enough

With regard those young supporters; apart from Boston and FC most away teams bring very few fans, and these part timers clearly just turned up for the craic. I’ve never noticed them before, and if they do turn up at other games, then butter wouldn’t melt. The majority of our supporters are middle age to elderly, and had we been playing say- Ashton, it would have been the usual low key atmosphere. If any of the older guys had a go, then they should grow up.

They only came cuz we're a MASSIVE club, innit 

So, having had a whinge at our team and wage bill, manager, pies, ref & liner, supporters, floodlights and athletics track, for Christ sake hurry up and get promoted, and save us all from your constant moaning and ‘holier-than-thou’ attitude.

Have a nice day.

ps, and to ‘The Net’ who seems to post everywhere; get your facts right, i.e. Cambridge not Aldershot, and 1974 not 1972. And you call yourself a supporter.

I went.. Sleaford started off really well, forcing about 5 corners in a row, but faltered and a definite penalty saw Matlock go through. Sollitt was dodgy all night, dropped the ball for the equaliser, and then a couple more in the 2nd half.

Yeah, another reason why we should (if playing 3 up) be starting with Suarez, Clarke and Newsham and bringing on Davidson (when fit) if a goal is required, just for sheer presence and numbers upfield.

Suarez's job isn't to run the channels - he's the big man in between the two either side of him. He wins more headers than Davidson, but he loses out to Davidson on strength.
