Why would we enter a competition we are not prepared to take seriously? I dont know if we are required to enter the FACup, I know Bacup dont although other teams in their league do. Instead of playing a weakened team in the competition to rest our front line players simply rest them by not entering. |

I dont care about the other cups....though the trophy gives us a realistic chance of returning to wembley. However i would always take the FACup seriously and play our best11. There are prize money considerations potential big crowds if we progress and exposure from meeting big teams. We know that the pitch problem has to be solved but is currently on hold for monetary reasons. Remember how keith hill used to disrespect the cup until a discussion with Dunphy about the opportunities it offered. It was like flipping a switch and we became probably the best performing lower league club over a number of years. |

I never look further than our next game. Yes we have had a fantastic start but we also know our manager is prone to doing strange things with the line up. |

So give him the first 45 minutes…we completely dominated carlisle in the first half. We could have gone in at half time with the lead, or at least level instead of waiting until we were chasing the game in the second half to use his 45 minutes. Changing the starting 11 made no sense at all. |

This time he changed the winning line up for a home game against our local rival. Any newcomers attracted by the big game and recent run will be put off again. |

I was not including bank holiday mondays, boxing day, new years day games when they fall on a weekday. I was only looking at the ‘regular’ midweek games. |

Indeed…he is at his best in these 1 on 1 ( or 2 on 1 in this case) interviews. Sounds relaxed, honest and not trying to BS. One interesting point for me was him saying how he didnt want Murray to leave. In later transfers he always claimed he wouldnt stand in the way of a player bettering himself (Matt Done to Sheff U was the classic example given we were fighting them at the time for promotion). I wonder when his attitude towards players leaving changed. Maybe thats in Part 2! |

Yes, cricket used to have raised covers …was it to avoid the pitch ‘sweating’? But now flat covers tend to be used I think. There must be some reason. |

FGR also playing Wednesday at Boston. Will they be resting players I wonder? I think I know the answer. Lets face it we should be playing our strongest side in all our league games at all times in an effort to avoid the crap shoot of the play offs Incidentally we have traditionally played our midweek games on Tuesday which gives us around 90 hours between Tuesday and Saturday. The gap for wednesday evening games to Saturday is around 65 hours. OK the time between previous weekend and Tuesday is less but still around 75 hours. Tuesdays seems to provide more balanced times between games. |

No discussion yet on the new NFL season. What a start with that game for the ages by the Bills…the last opening day at ralph wilson stadium before the bulldozers move in. Not sure if the Bills can last the season with that defence ( sorry Deeefence!) but time for improvements. |

How could it be a masterstroke...we lost the game against a part time team. The worst possible outcome. Surely we could have expected more than 3 points from the last two games given the opposition (and our form going into the weekend). |

So soon after his sparring partner Peter Lever as well. Not sure how many of that ashes winning squad are still going…other than Boycott of course. |
