December 1981

Hi I wonder if anyone has a record of our games from this month, if any were indeed played as apparently it snowed a lot.

It’s part of a project I’ve undertaken which is far too tedious to discuss!

Thanks in advance

Re: COACH TO RUSHALL.. COVID ALERT

I think I'll stick with science over Right Said Fred on this one. Get well soon Neil.

Re: Mickleover bowled over

Agree with all the above .. Cawleys first touch is sublime. With him as the focal point and rio, Diogo, Jack snell and Ashley buzzing about we're a very enjoyable team to watch at the moment

Re: Alvechurch game

Really good.. we're hard to break down currently and with Rio and Diogo we have a couple of flair players who cause a lot of problems ... credit to Burkey.. lets go for promotion via the play offs now.. why not??

Re: Vs Nuneaton

We definitely benefited from them not being at the races in the first half and weak keeping from portly irritant Tony Breedon. Shame to have conceded an equaliser but there is comfort to be taken from the resilience under pressure at the end. :lol: enjoyed this description of our favourite oppositi...

Re: Prediction - TAMWORTH

At 2.03pm I feared the worst but tuned in to Freddie & Josh's commentary and I sounded like we were knocking on the door for long periods. No shame in a narrow defeat awau at the league leaders, Tuesday is more of a test I suppose

Re: Chesterfield at Top Field tonight

She is passionate about HTFC and only wants success for the club. I'm a bit tired of the circus not least as I'm struggling to get to many games, but I wouldn't put too much faith in this verdict. It seems to me more about boosting her own profile locally as some sort of renegade disruptor, as if s...

Re: Interview With Grant Biddle Chairman Of Peterborough Sports Saturday 12th March.

Despite the difficulties of being a Level 2 clubs, other clubs do make the jump successfully. Yes, it would require a complete change of attitude within the club, but even Hitchin are not beyond that possibility. It's obviously not merely a change in 'attitude' whatever that's supposed to mean. The...

Re: Interview With Grant Biddle Chairman Of Peterborough Sports Saturday 12th March.

Ok we get promoted, how are we going to sustain that? Join The Jackie Fan Club!!! If we got promoted, actually from my experiences, more would need to change off the pitch than on it to survive at Step 2. The whole culture and ethos of the club would need to change. To survive at Step 2 now you hav...

Re: How far does your loyalty stretch?

I think I'd draw a distinction between complaining at the game in the heat of the moment and posting on the Internet. A lot of the enjoyment of football is people in the crowd having a moan and letting off steam and often makes for great entertainment! Trying to whip up artificial rows on the Intern...
