Steve said that things look a lot more promising than 2 weeks ago and that he will expect some progress in the next 3 weeks. Terms would be a 125 year lease. UWE finding it hard to move away from original plans. Says it will be embarrassing for both parties if it doesn't go through. So we aren't going to own it after all? We wouldn't own the freehold we would own a 125 year lease which is long enough to give security & certainty - I guess it's the other conditions of the lease that are key.

How does he motivate players - dour as **** blaming everyone else! They were rubbish and we were much much better!

Think it's a simple situation on both accounts Shrewsbury were hard done by and if those decisions had been against us there would be a 5 page thread slagging off the referee. As it happens I thought the striker was hard done by for his first yellow Cobblers - a) he kicked the keeper for the second yellow b) he tripped our lad as he weaved into a shooting position for the first. Silly Boy, correct referring decision.

He did, chose Sheffield Wed rather than us - no real surprise, had a decent career but looked average in a poor side Saturday! UTG

My mate Craig has been saying from September that we will make the play offs & go up again.....perhaps the eternal optimist but if we can sneak in and catch a team off form who knows. Always one team who sneak up on the rails and have that momentum.

Road was too bumpy, weather too nice and I didn't have any luck! Poor old Lee.

I was happy when Fortune was taken off as I thought he looked quite bright. Not sure why he blamed him & Atkinson but hey ho great that we can make a half decent side look so unprepared!

Probably time up for Mildy, Manse and the 6 already advised including Puddy, Easter, McCrystal - but I would be quite happy to keep the rest.

I can see James Clarke getting a new deal - reliable, can play any defensive position, one of DCs boys and probably cheap as chips!

Great player at this level & immensely proud to have got into League football.
Met him a few times when he lived near Thornbury, used the word "amazing" lots to describe playing for the Gas - "lucky" was another he used.
We are very lucky to have him, absolute charmer!

Same token- it's only a handful of games- were sometimes too quick to decide everything. Ycan only comment on what I have seen which is - so far - all good. Confident handling of crosses, good punches when needed, great reaction shot stopping & a kick like a very powerful mule. Whats not to like?

Happy birthday mate - your goals were some of the finest moments I have witnessed as a Gashead. Cardiff late on at Eastville - stunning!!

Sorry but the nonsense of "we looked better went Sinclair went off" is nonsense. We looked better when he went off because he had done what was asked of him and allowed us to switch to wingers against a tiring team. SS is not there to hit perfect 40 yard passes or to split defences. He's there to harass and give them no time on the ball. DC said the plan was to hit on the counter for the first 60, but if SS wasn't doing what he does best then there would have been no point swirching to 442 and utilising wingers. Xactly!

He has been outstanding since he joined us. As others have said you need a mixture of types of player, Stuart does so much selfless running, tackling, heading that others can get away with concentrating on what they are best at.
You wouldn't want 11 Sincs but you wouldn't win many with 11 Bodins or 11 Sweeneys.
It's a team - that's why DC picks him almost every week.
Personally think we should celebrate the teams efforts & results rather than one guy.
