Views from the Sieve

Yes, Taylor has done fantastically well to guide us to where we are at the minute. Yes, 14th is a position we'd have all have taken in a heartbeat back in August. But the parameters of the season have changed. We're no longer a cash-strapped team of 19 year-olds. Gateshead's team yesterday must've c...

1-0, ADELOYE.

Saturday's tactics were a fine example of why there has been scepticism regarding Taylor in the past. We genuinely set up as if we had no interest in winning the game and the exclusion of Munns, McQueen, Phipps, Bellamy and Adeloye for the likes of Will Wright and Lamar Reynolds is quite frankly biz...

0-1, Wilkinson.

I don't see why this is necessarily a bad thing. Wrexham are on their third manager this season and have dropped off in form at just the time where the pressure starts to become potentially overwhelming. Their fans are disillusioned with how things are unfolding yet again and they've now appointed a...

0-2, Wilkinson.

Stewarding and segregation both need looking at, but to be fair if a group of supporters come looking for trouble, they're likely to get it whichever ground they're at in the National League.

Interesting, definitely something going on here. The post announcing prices for the Maidenhead game got about 600 likes, almost five times than the post announcing the signing of Wilkinson. The same post ahead of Maidstone got only three likes so either there's loads of fake accounts liking our rece...

4-0, Wilkinson.

The side that Peter Taylor initially built would've comfortably gone down. We were vulnerable and, much like Maidstone against us on Saturday, would dominate several games but just lacked the quality to score. Things weren't good enough and there weren't many people optimistic enough to predict that...

Today's arrival of Doug Loft takes the current squad up to 28, which is a number that we'll probably be looking to trim soon. That's also not including the likes of Balogun and Bonds who, in spite of being given a squad number, won't be involved this season. It also means that we're looking stronger...

Hard to believe that in spite of one of our poorest overall displays in a long time, we've recorded our biggest win in just over a year. A better team, one with a player like Wilkinson up top, would've absolutely massacred us first-half. However nobody can argue with the way we took our chances, eve...

0-2, Balanta.
