Better signing than Hirst.

Quite possibly. Having said that he’ll want better service than our strikers are getting at present.

I see Big Dunc is the new manager at Forest Green Rovers. It'll be interesting to see how he gets on given that he was closely linked to the Rovers job last summer.

@Mike E Is it worth renaming this thread by removing "21/22"?

Is big Dunc a vegetarian ? I thought that I heard, he ate burglars.

Absolute comedy this, glad we avoided

Morecambe about to be bought by a 20-year-old from Birmingham. For those of a certain inclination, the companies house searches make for odd reading. Honestly feel for Morecambe, I think it’s gonna end up as a weird YouTube/crypto grift.

A cautious note from a while ago when a young lad tried to buy Aldershot. I remember it well and the demise of Aldershot was down to this.

Listening to radio Lancashire earlier and it was mentioned that he already had his foot in the door by funding one or more signings during the transfer window. 

Good luck morecambe.

Corner from Chapman and a injury time winner for Bradford. Sparky going nuts on the touchline😁

They had 20k on today. Hope they go uo for Sparky and Smallwood.

Matty Platt and Derbyshire are there as well.

Markanday didn’t get on again today. A complete waste of time him going there so far.

I've noticed that also. I think he's had one 10 minute appearance as a sub. Wasted.

So now Aberdeen, as well as Spurs and the Rovers, have come to the conclusion that Markanday at the moment, is not good enough for their starting teams.

Strangely the one transfer we managed to get completed.

Stanley losing again.

They’ve done well to survive 4 seasons in league one, but I can’t see them stopping up this time.

[GHR]

Some job Jon Coleman has done there over his two stints. Didn't they achieve something mad like finishing higher in the league 12 years in a row?

Its does appear that way and the lost of Colby Bishop hasn't be replaced goals wise

[wilsdenrover]

Away to Oxford on the final day, if they hang on in there it could be interesting…

[Sweaty Gussets]

Sheff W lost at Forest Green today. It's a 4 horse race for the top two.
