Could we all possibly try to keep this civil before the thread is locked as I haven’t time to moderate this at the moment. True aye Somerset, it’s ok to disagree with fellow Gaschatters. A differing opinion doesn’t need to be the trigger for a psychotic episode. Relax and enjoy your own musings……no need to slay the internet.

You really need the motivation of playing for something tangible….be that promotion , relegation fight, Play offs etc. Many examples out there of really good teams who have turned to Poo the minute the prize is secured. Players generally aren’t like us ,It’s not enough just to play for the shirt. They need the extra motivation of meaningful points to empty the tanks. He must be mindful though …we need to be entertained. That’s what sells tickets.Your few hundred hard core supporters who go to the likes of Port Vale and Fleetwood on a Tuesday night….they’re a done deal….fully committed. So you need to give your Home crowd something to fizz about….and convert some floaters into ST’s. I will say though , these last matches are absolutely gold for MT. Free range to try things and a terrific opportunity to see which individuals can add value. Try not to think of it is winning and losing…….it’s winning and learning. Never forget after the Summer break most of us will be back for more….hopefully not more of the same. UTG

At least spell the name of the country right. It is with an " Z " not an " s " Not if you’re Brasilian or Portuguese. My fathers side are Portuguese and many of us live in Brasil. Over here it’s never spelt with a Z. In England it is but whether I’m in Brasil or the Uk or anywhere for that matter for me it’s an S. But no offence taken. Every days a school day. Class dismissed 😆

Probably right , a normal distribution would mean 12th and above will be a positive number.

60 points is a solid base to build on. Disappointing goal difference though. A complete rebuild would be a disaster though in terms team unity. 3 or 4 quality signings who play consistent well and are capable of playing up is the way to progress. Teams like Wrexham are flying high , not because of tactics or formations, they simply have more better players than most of the other teams. The type of players who don’t need to be told what to do, they adapt slightly during the game to counter / exploit weaknesses.

Fair play to Linesey , why stop if you love the game. Hopefully one day he’ll be turning out for Filton Athletic.

The reality with the East Stand is 1 + 2 = 1. It will not be a structure that you can see from outer space. Try and keep it real ppl.

Worthing v Bath City on Sunday could be a cracker , genuine 6 pointer. I’ll be in New Caledonia so slim pickings for me. I will try and follow the game on Bath city Radio. Time difference / hangover may scupper me though.

In my lifetime , as England never qualified for a World Cup until 1982, my childhood was spent supporting Scotland at ‘74 & ‘78 WC’s. Filling in the wall charts, watching the games, I even had a tartan scarf.

TBH if all the EFL clubs get a bigger chunk of money, invariably players wages will end up rising and there will be little net gain.

To be followed by the history of the flower beds at the Tote end.Unique. Magnifico, that was my end of the SS. Where I could keep a close eye on the Tote End shenanigans.

My dad was on the turnstiles, so i would be at the ground hours before kick off. I used to roam around the empty stadium looking under the seats for treasure. Always a good haul If there was a Speedway meet the previous night. Being dark and noisy, they couldn’t hear their pockets empty every time they leapt from their seat to see Crump or Gresham take the flag. $$$$$$$$ I knew every inch of Eastville, watching it slowly fill up on Matchday days as I read my programme twice and did my rounds. I can remember watching people use the pull down access ladder near the back of the South Stand to get into the Commentary box. I used to squander my I’ll gotten gains in the glass fronted bar at the far end of the South Stand. To this day if I ever get a whiff of old wood and tobacco……it takes me back to my happy place.

TBH I find all that gesticulating across the net absolutely childish and cringe worthy. The mistake is to make eye contact, which fuels them. I ignore the Pratts and focus on the game and getting behind my Team. I take a stealth photo of the Perps, so I can follow them home and choke them to death in their own bed. You should see the look on their face 🤣

Lincoln with a 6-0 win at home tonight, feels like it could be backs to the wall on Saturday! Yep Saturday we need to protect our -4 goal difference. #massive task
