There is already unrest in the camp as a certain big name player will not sign a new contract even if they do go up.

Top of the league and yet only 1400 spectators there tonight - what a shambles.

There was 2500 there one year when i referee'd a Hampshire Senior Cup match against Brockenhurst!!

Very strange.

For the record Bracknell Town already look doomed to relegation to step 5 of the non league world. Pld 9 W 0 D1 L8 F5 A23. Add to that defeats in their league cup and in the FA Cup to a team two divisions below and things are looking pretty stinky down Larges Lane.

As a complete contrast Truro City (where Kevin Girdler went last year) are walking away with the Western Premier League and if things continue should make promotion to the Southern League Div 1 South & West (Step 4) - believe they would be the first Cornish side to reach as high as that in the pyramid. Their league record is Pld 8 W8 D0 L0 F25 A3

heard Nick Merry on the radio this morning, he's clearly losing his patience. do it now before it's too late - if anyone's heard Jim Smith's interviews recently it wouldn't surprise me if he's drinking the bubble bath and slopping the scotch into the tub.

Originally 1400 last night posted on BBC - but accept its changed.

Still less than a game against Brockenhurst mind you!!

With only Beadeau with a slight knock, they should win. Then against they lost last week with one of their best teams they've put out.

Should have been 4 up at halftime through all reports just a bad day at the office. Could do with a win tomorrow, tough game sunday.

next four games will be testing for Torquay's season if they end 1st or not. hopefully by dec/jan I will have something to look forward to watching. torquay have a great strike force this season, much better than last seasons thorpe and mcphee (who ironically was playing right back for ebbsfleet when they beat the gulls). but they definately need to sign Zebroski, he is amazing from what i've heard.

Seen him a couple of times this season and he's head and shoulders above anything in this league.

I'll tell Louie that

He is > Soares without doubt.

Bigger than?

Alan Partridge · by **Alan Partridge** » 11 Oct 2007 00:11

Tredder Bigger than?

LOL, in terms of height i think so!

Tredder · by **Tredder** » 11 Oct 2007 00:21

isn't > bigger than?

I bet Louies dad is > than his dad.

TBF, he's having his best season since being let go by Reading, thoroughly enjoys his time at the shots and being played in a far more attacking role, suits him down to the ground.

I'm going next week for their turnstile breaking game against Halifax.

I'm liking the non league scene, Hodgey doing well at Hampton and Louie doing well at Aldershot.

Takes my mind off things closer to home.

Barry the bird boggler For the record Bracknell Town already look doomed to relegation to step 5 of the non league world. Pld 9 W 0 D1 L8 F5 A23. Add to that defeats in their league cup and in the FA Cup to a team two divisions below and things are looking pretty stinky down Larges Lane.

As a complete contrast Truro City (where Kevin Girdler went last year) are walking away with the Western Premier League and if things continue should make promotion to the Southern League Div 1 South & West (Step 4) - believe they would be the first Cornish side to reach as high as that in the pyramid. Their league record is Pld 8 W8 D0 L0 F25 A3

I thought that Truro were being bankrolled in a manner not dissimilar to Gretna's recent past....?

Truro are flying through the leagues, and yes they are Cornwall's best club, unless you count Plymouth.
