I seem to be having trouble with the site being very slow to load. It takes about 20 seconds to load where as before it was almost instantaneous.

It also logs me out without me asking it to which means I’m constantly having to login even when I’ve ticked the remember me box.

Also the adverts ...

He got sent off against us for a start!

Excellent, thanks for the summary. Sounds incredibly positive, both on and off the field - let's hope it stays that way and that everybody is afforded the time needed to make a success of this (especially regarding the off the field stuff which will naturally take longer). Really encouraging to read ...

Be great if somebody could summarise this for those of us that were unable to be there or tune in.

He's Glenn Tamplin's son. During that takeover saga he was supposedly horrendously verbally abused in the ground (if you believe his dad anyway). A cracking signing on paper for us though and Chelmsford seem gutted to have lost him.

Are they about to have the FA Trophy taken off them?

This. Would seriously question the ambition of the owners if Cox were appointed.

Absolutely this. This season has been an abomination and I can't wait for it to be over.

That was absolutely awful, but hopefully will confirm to our owners that we need a wholesale clearance over the summer if we are to challenge next year. You wouldn't have known it was a derby at all, no intensity from us whatsoever. I won't name individual performances as there were too many bad ...

Were you living under a rock when there was the big palaver about Michael Hector last season?!

But despite the mountain of people: current employees, past employees, board members still with us and those unfortunately not, sponsors past and present, fans who still go and those who don't, that have all had incredibly negative experiences with him (myself included), we shouldn't say a bad word ...

I didn't even get as far as the club by club bit of the article - this sentence told me all I needed to know: "drawing on ESTIMATED figures by Salary Sport", I.e. that these figures are pretty much made up with no actual basis.

Not a chance in hell that there were 1100 in the ground tonight even if you include stewards, players, subs, coaches, groundsman and camera crew in the number. Around 700 would be generous - Bury Road end was largely empty, Sieve had barely anyone in it and there spaces galore in the stands too. I ...

A takeover might or might not happen but if it does and certain people remain in place what’s the point? Same old.


Absolutely this. All the fanfare of Club Underdog (and predecessors) taking over, and yet (despite numerous people on here saying he would be gone) he remains in place casting his ...

That first half was utterly dreadful. Their goal - if you're playing with three centre backs, how on earth do you end up with 20 yards between two of them?! Second half was much better because we tried to play on the front foot (albeit still with lots of trying to pass it around at the back which ...
